Please provide documentation supporting the necessity for a full <br />new Master Plan rather than a minor update. <br />The City of Livermore recently did a minor update on its 2018 Master <br />Plan. Staff verbally told BPTC that we wanted to do a minor update <br />but were forced to do a full one. What authority made this demand? <br />What is it about Pleasanton's 2018 plan that made this a <br />requirement but not Livermore's 2018 plan? And whatever difference <br />there was, does our new RFP highlight this so that our next revision <br />can be minor? <br />2. Please provide the comparison analysis that allowed Hexagon to <br />win this bid. <br />Fehr & Peers would seem to have an advantage since they wrote our <br />previous plan. I believe that Fehr & Peers maintains our TDM and <br />Exhibit A indicates that Hexagon will make use of a TDM; will <br />Hexagon recreate one or will Fehr & Peers give Hexagon access? If <br />the latter, will financial considerations be expected? A cursory review <br />of Hexagon's website suggests they are primarily a Traffic <br />consultant, not a Bike/Ped consultant. The example bike/ped projects <br />have no links; has Staff reviewed their Master Plan examples? The <br />projects I could find were only minor corridor projects. Hexagon <br />worked for the City in 2013 on the Downtown Parking Study but I've <br />never heard them mentioned with respect to bike/ped work. <br />3. Item 10 of the Agreement requires that the consultant cannot <br />sublet or transfer anything without written consent of the City. Please <br />provide whatever written agreement already exists for Hexagon to <br />work with Toole Design. <br />Toole Design is referenced in Exhibit A, Task #3 but nowhere else in <br />this agenda item. Toole Design's involvement was verbally implied to <br />BPTC by Staff. What role does Toole Design have in this project and
