RE: Proposal for Consulting Services for the City of El Segundo Housing Element Update Phase 2
Dear Michael:
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. ("Kimley-Horn" or "Consultant") is pleased to submit this letter
agreement (the "Agreement") to the City of El Segundo ("Client" or "City") to provide consulting
services for the City of El Segundo's Housing Element Update (the "Project").
UNDERSTANDINGPROJECT
Kimley-Horn understands that the City of El Segundo is working on a rezoning project as a part of the
City's Housing Element implementation. The City's Housing Element calls for increasing the density of
specific zoning categories such as the R-3 category (multi -family residential) and rezoning certain
commercial properties to a high -density Mixed -Use Overlay zone (commercial and residential). In
support of this effort, Kimley-Horn understands that the City requires a transportation analysis to be
completed that accomplishes the following:
1) A vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis of the rezoned parcels for inclusion in the City's CEOA
document
2) A level of service (LOS) analysis for General Plan compliance and determination of potential
intersection improvements that may be needed
Kimley-Horn will provide the Scope of Services specifically set forth below. This Scope of Services has
been prepared based upon Kimley-Horn's understanding of the Project issues, and experience with
similar projects and issues. This Scope assumes that the City will provide Kimley-Horn with the location
and number of units for each parcel included in the Project. This Scope also assumes that at a future
date the City will provide Kimley-Horn with the percentage of the additional non-residential
development by employment category (e.g., commercial, office, etc.).
TASK ® ANALYSIS
Task .1a Vehicle Miles Traveled Isis
Kimley-Horn will perform an evaluation of the Project's Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as pertains to
Senate Bill 743 (SB 743). Kimley-Horn will use the City's VMT Analysis Tool to determine the average
VMT per capita, VMT per employee, and total VMT for each land use at each overlay site, as
applicable. Each land use type's VMT performance will be compared to the City of El Segundo's
thresholds to determine whether the Project results in a significant impact.
Kimley-Horn will provide the results of the VMT analysis to the Client, as well as the total VMT by
overlay site in a format such as VMT by speed bin that can be for air quality and greenhouse gas
analyses to be performed by others.

and distributed per Task 2 above, to the Existing (2023) Conditions (Scenario "A").
The LTA analysis will be completed for the study intersections determined per Task 3.1 above. LOS
and queuing for study intersections will be determined for the time periods and analysis scenarios
listed above. LOS and queuing for each scenario will be determined using methods defined in the most
recent edition of the Highway Capacity Manual, using appropriate traffic analysis software
(Synch ro®/Simtraffic°). Recommendations for intersection improvements will be based on
intersection LOS and queuing reports.
Task 23: Documentation
Kimley-Horn will prepare a brief technical memorandum summarizing the efforts and findings
resulting from the efforts described in Tasks 3.1 and 3.2. Kimley-Horn will provide the Client/City

KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC.
STANDARD PROVISIONS
1) Kimley-Horn's Scope of Services and Additional Services. Kimley-Horn will perform only the services specifically
described in this Agreement. If requested by the Client and agreed to by Kimley-Horn, Kimley-Horn will perform
Additional Services, which shall be governed by these provisions. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, the Client
shall pay Kimley-Horn for any Additional Services an amount based upon Kimley-Hor's then -current hourly rates plus
an amount to cover certain direct expenses including telecommunications, in-house reproduction, postage, supplies,
project related computer time, and local mileage. Other direct expenses will be billed at 1.15 times cost.
2) Client's Responsibilities. In addition to other responsibilities herein or imposed by law, the Client shall:
a. Designate in writing a person to act as its representative, such person having complete authority to transmit instructions,
receive information, and make or interpret the Client's decisions.
b. Provide all information and criteria as to the Client's requirements, objectives, and expectations for the project and all
standards of development, design, or construction.
c. Provide Kimley-Horn all available studies, plans, or other documents pertaining to the project, such as surveys,
engineering data, environmental information, etc., all of which Kimley-Horn may rely upon.
d. Arrange for access to the site and other property as required for Kimley-Horn to provide its services.
e. Review all documents or reports presented by Kimley-Horn and communicate decisions pertaining thereto within a
reasonable time so as not to delay Kimley-Horn.
f. Furnish approvals and permits from governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the project and approvals and
consents from other parties as may be necessary.
g. Obtain any independent accounting, legal, insurance, cost estimating, and feasibility services required by Client.
h. Give prompt written notice to Kimley-Horn whenever the Client becomes aware of any development that affects Kimley-
Horn's services or any defect or noncompliance in any aspect of the project.
3) Period of Services. Unless otherwise stated herein, Kimley-Horn will begin work after receipt of a properly executed
copy of this Agreement. This Agreement assumes conditions permitting continuous and orderly progress through
completion of the services. Times for performance shall be extended as necessary for delays or suspensions due to
circumstances that Kimley-Horn does not control. If such delay or suspension extends for more than six months, Kimley-
Horn's compensation shall be renegotiated.
4) Method of Payment. Client shall pay Kimley-Horn as follows:
a. Invoices will be submitted periodically for services performed and expenses incurred. Invoices are due and payable
upon presentation. Client shall pay Kimley-Horn a time price differential of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the
outstanding amount of each invoice that is overdue for more than 30 days. The Client shall also pay any applicable
sales tax. All retainers will be held by Kimley-Horn and applied against the final invoice. If the Client fails to make any
payment due under this or any other agreement within 30 days after presentation, Kimley-Horn may, after giving notice
to the Client, suspend services and withhold deliverables until all amounts due are paid, and may commence legal
proceedings including filing liens to secure payment.
b. If the Client relies on payment or proceeds from a third party to pay Kimley-Horn and Client does not pay Kimley-Horn's
invoice within 60 days of receipt, Kimley-Horn may communicate directly with such third party to secure payment.
c. If the Client objects to an invoice, it must advise Kimley-Horn in writing giving its reasons within 14 days of receipt of
the invoice or the Client's objections will be waived, and the invoice shall conclusively be deemed due and owing. If
the Client objects to only a portion of the invoice, payment for all other portions remains due.
d. If Kimley-Horn initiates legal proceedings to collect payment, it may recover, in addition to all amounts due, its
reasonable attorneys' fees, reasonable experts' fees, and other expenses related to the proceedings. Such expenses
shall include the cost, at Kimley-Horn's normal hourly billing rates, of the time devoted to such proceedings by its
employees.
e. The Client agrees that the payment to Kimley-Horn is not subject to any contingency or condition. Kimley-Horn may
negotiate payment of any check tendered by the Client, even if the words "in full satisfaction" or words intended to have
similar effect appear on the check without such negotiation being an accord and satisfaction of any disputed debt and
without prejudicing any right of Kimley-Horn to collect additional amounts from the Client.
5) Use of Documents. All documents and data prepared by Kimley-Horn are related exclusively to the services described
in this Agreement and may be used only if the Client has satisfied all of its obligations under this Agreement. They are
not intended or represented to be suitable for use or reuse by the Client or others on extensions of this project or on
any other project. Any modifications by the Client to any of Kimley-Horn's documents, or any reuse of the documents
without written authorization by Kimley-Horn will be at the Client's sole risk and without liability to Kimley-Horn, and the
Client shall indemnify, defend and hold Kimley-Horn harmless from all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including
but not limited to attorneys' fees, resulting therefrom. Kimley-Hour's electronic files and source code remain the

property of Kimley-Horn and shall be provided to the Client only if expressly provided for in this Agreement. Any
electronic files not containing an electronic seal are provided only for the convenience of the Client and use of them is
at the Client's sole risk. In the case of any defects in the electronic files or any discrepancies between them and the

rights in the Intellectual Property to Client. Any enhancements of Intellectual Property made during the performance of
this Agreement are solely owned by Kimley-Horn and its affiliates. If Kimley-Horn's services include providing Client

terms of the Software License Agreement set forth at httDs://www.kimley-hom.comtkhts�softwareµlucense-a regiment,
("the License Agreement") which terms are incorporated herein by reference.
7) Opinions of Cost. Because Kimley-Horn does not control the cost of labor, materials, equipment or services furnished
by others, methods of determining prices, or competitive bidding or market conditions, any opinions rendered as to
costs, including but not limited to the costs of construction and materials, are made solely based on its judgment as a
professional familiar with the industry. Kimley-Horn cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids or actual costs
will not vary from its opinions of cost. If the Client wishes greater assurance as to the amount of any cost, it shall
employ an independent cost estimator. Kimley-Horn's services required to bring costs within any limitation established
by the Client will be paid for as Additional Services.
8) Termination. The obligation to provide further services under this Agreement may be terminated by either party upon
seven days' written notice in the event of substantial failure by the other party to perform in accordance with the terms
hereof, or upon thirty days' written notice for the convenience of the terminating party. Kimley-Horn shall be paid for
all services rendered and expenses incurred to the effective date of termination, and other reasonable expenses
incurred by Kimley-Horn as a result of such termination.
9) Standard of Care. The standard of care applicable to Kimley-Horn's services will be the degree of care and skill
ordinarily exercised by consultants performing the same or similar services in the same locality at the time the services
are provided. No warranty, express or implied, is made or intended by Kimley-Horn's performance of services, and it

way related to the services under this Agreement from any causes, including but not limited to, the negligence,
professional errors or omissions, strict liability or breach of contract or any warranty, express or implied, of Kimley-Horn
or Kimley-Horn's officers, directors, employees, agents, and subconsultants, shall not exceed twice the total
compensation received by Kimley-Horn under this Agreement or $50,000, whichever is greater. Higher limits of liability
may be negotiated for additional fee. This Section is intended solely to limit the remedies available to the Client or
those claiming by or through the Client, and nothing in this Section shall require the Client to indemnify Kimley-Horn.

incidental, punitive, or indirect damages including but not limited to loss of income or loss of profits.
12) Construction Costs. Under no circumstances shall Kimley-Horn be liable for extra costs or other consequences due
to unknown conditions or related to the failure of contractors to perform work in accordance with the plans and

will be for the sole benefit of the Client and Kimley-Horn. The Client shall not assign or transfer any rights under or
interest in this Agreement, or any claim arising out of the performance of services by Kimley-Horn, without the written
consent of Kimley-Horn. Kimley-Horn reserves the right to augment its staff with subconsultants as it deems
appropriate due to project logistics, schedules, or market conditions. If Kimley-Horn exercises this right, Kimley-Horn
will maintain the agreed -upon billing rates for services identified in the contract, regardless of whether the services are
provided by in-house employees, contract employees, or independent subconsultants.
18) Confidentiality. The Client consents to the use and dissemination by Kimley-Horn of photographs of the project and
to the use by Kimley-Horn of facts, data and information obtained by Kimley-Horn in the performance of its services.

shall use reasonable care to maintain the confidentiality of that material.

contains the entire and fully integrated agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous
negotiations, representations, agreements, or understandings, whether written or oral. Except as provided in Section
1, this Agreement can be supplemented or amended only by a written document executed by both parties. Any
conflicting or additionalterms on any purchase order issued by the Client shell be void and are hereby expressly
rejected by Kimley-Horn. If Client requires Kimley-Horn to register with or use an online vendor portal for payment or
any other purpose, any terms included in the registration or use of the online vendor portal that are inconsistent or in
addition to these terms shall be void and shall have no effect on Kimley-Horn or this Agreement. Any provision in this
Agreement that is unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions. The non -enforcement of any provision by either party shall not constitute a waiver of that provision
nor shall it affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this Agreement.
