This data would then be used to conduct the traffic and parking analysis for the proposed Project site in El Segundo. Pursuant to Bob Matson's recent conversations with TopGolf, it has been determined that the Scottsdale, Arizona site will require more effort to collect, given that not all of the employees park on the TopGolf site. Instead, after 5 PM on weekdays and during Saturdays and Sundays, some employees park on an adjacent office site to open up the on -site parking spaces for TopGolf customers. To be able to capture the data associated with employees parking on the adjacent site, the count company will need to have staff observe and track the cars that are parking on the adjacent site and walking back and forth to TopGolf. Therefore, the cost of conducting the counts will be slightly higher than what was previously estimated, a total of $3,050 additional to the original fee. The revised Contract Value, inclusive of this AWR, is $34,340. TOTAL FEE: $ 3,050 Please confirm your approval of this additional SOW and fee by signing and returning this form to Rita Garcia, Project Manager.

Because there were special events scheduled at the facility this week, Baker scheduled the parking demand /trip generation count data for the following week, Thursday through Sunday (4/21, 4/22, 4/23, & 4/24) from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. per Baker scope of work. Scott confirmed Meredith Petit's understanding at the City Recreation & Parks department that many who play the driving range don't check in at the front desk; they just use a pass or token to electronically get their balls at the driving range itself. Hence, the City golf course doesn't know how many people are using the driving range. This is an issue because the City was to provide this information on an hourly basis from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. for several days to Baker per Baker scope of work, in order for Baker to determine the number of parked vehicles and trips associated with the driving range that will be displaced as part of the TopGolf project. Scott and Bob Matson discussed several potential ways the golf course could perhaps collect this information to pass onto Baker for use in the analysis. One idea was for Scott to subdivide the parking lot into two areas with signage designating one parking area for those using the driving range and the other parking area for all other uses onsite (9 -hole golf course, restaurant, putting green, etc.) on the days we collect the data. That way the counters would just count vehicles parked in the driving range - designated parking lot on an hourly basis. However, this option has been discounted because Scott doesn't have the staff to oversee the parking area for from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. for several days; therefore, there's no real guarantee people will park only where they are supposed to, but more importantly, Scott noted that it could be around 50% of those using the driving range will also play the 9- hole golf course ... so which area would these persons park? Obviously, wherever they want to park. The margin of error is just too great to consider this option. JCTIa dL,,;.,:.:, �SE�K MALLYPORT MBAKERINTL.COM Agreement No. 4924 -3A Innovation Done Right- We Make o Di ffeFence I N T E R N AT 1 0 N A L Another option discussed is for Scott to have staff specifically monitor the driving range and count on an hourly basis from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. for several days the number of people using the driving range; Scott does not currently have staff he can allocate for this task, but he noted if the City allocated him additional staff, then he could get it done for Baker. The City subsequently confirmed they did not have staff to allocate to Scott for this purpose. Therefore, Baker was instructed to have a counter specifically monitor the driving range and count on an hourly basis from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. for several days the number of people using the driving range. This task is not included in current scope of work and related fee.

The environmental documentation will be prepared in accordance with the criteria, standards, and provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (California Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.), CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.), the City of El Segundo Environmental Guidelines, and the regulations requirements and procedures of any other responsible Public Agency with jurisdiction by law. Michael Baker will relate the proposed Project to the general trends in El Segundo and the surrounding area throughout the documents, and where appropriate. Each of the issues is approached thoroughly in order to fully address all planning issues and assess all potential impacts, establish thresholds of significance, and identify mitigation measures. Forthis work program, Michael Baker will provide services from our Corporate Headquarters in Irvine. Our familiarity with land use and environmental issues, coupled with prior environmental review experience in El Segundo and urban areas throughout Southern California, are key assets that we offer in order to complete the Project's planning process and environmental clearance. 1.2 UNDERSTANDING ST, N DING Off" THE PROJECT' The proposed Project involves a portion of the property currently occupied by The Lakes at El Segundo publically owned golf course and driving range located at 400 South Sepulveda Boulevard. The 40 -acre property currently includes a 9 -hole executive golf course, 40 -bay driving range, and pro shop with full - service restaurant. The Project proposes to demolish the driving range and pro shop, and construct a three -story, 65,000 square foot TopGolf facility and outdoor practice area on approximately 12 acres in the site's southern portion. The facility would include 102 hitting bays, full service restaurant, bar, lounges and corporate /event meeting space, and family entertainment area with games. Minor modifications to the existing golf course and expansion of the parking lot to accommodate the expanded use are also proposed. The City will continue to operate the golf course and pro shop. The driving range, restaurant, bar, lounges, event space, and entertainment areas will be operated by TopGolf. The property is currently designated Open Space (OS) Parks and zoned Open Space (OS) Zone. While "commercial recreational facilities" are permitted, not all of the proposed TopGolf uses are permitted in the OS Zone. Additionally, the proposed three -story building does not meet the OS Zone's height and building setback standards. The City of El Segundo requires preparation of a Specific Plan for the entire 40 -acre property. The Specific Plan will be prepared by the Project Applicant. A General Plan Amendment, General Plan Map Amendment, Zone Change, Zone Text Amendment, Zoning Map Amendment, Lot Line Adjustment, and Administrative /Conditional Use Permits for alcohol service at the TopGolf facility and pro shop are also required. Based on our review of the Project, discussions with City staff and Project Applicant, and our experience with similar Projects, we anticipate that the Project's key planning and environmental May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report considerations will include land use, air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and transportation and circulation. The following paragraphs briefly describe these key considerations and identify our approach to analyzing each topic. Land Use: As the proposed Project would entail land uses that are not currently allowed in the OS zone, the Project would require a Specific Plan for the entire 40 -acre golf course property. The Specific Plan will be prepared by the Project Applicant. Refer to Section 1.4, Approach to Specific Plan Peer Review, for a discussion of Michael Baker's proposed approach for conducting the peer review of the Applicant - prepared Specific Plan. Additionally, the Project would necessitate a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change. The Project and Specific Plan will be analyzed for consistency with adopted City documents. « Air Quality: The proposed Project would generate air pollutants during both construction and operation. Michael Baker will prepare the Project's Air Quality analysis to explain the existing conditions and regulatory framework pertaining to the site and determine if the Project would result in significant short-term construction emissions, long -term operational emissions, or localized emissions. C reenhOUSe Gas Emissions: Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and related climate change impacts are topics of concern for nearly all CEQA documents, as emphasized through the passage of multiple bills through the state legislature (e.g., AB 32 and SB 375). As with air pollutants, the Project would generate GHG emissions from construction and operation activities. Michael Baker will prepare GHG emissions and energy analyses, and will identify applicable mitigation measures to reduce significant Project impacts, if any. Transportation and Circulation: The proposed Project would increase vehicular traffic generation and impact circulation. Michael Baker is currently conducting a parking demand study and trip generation observation for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project. As explained in the proposal, the TopGolf facility would increase hitting bay capacity and therefore would require parking lot expansion. The parking demand study and trip generation observation data will be used to prepare the EIR Traffic Impact Analysis. The proposed Project would increase traffic generation, potentially impacting levels of service for intersections within the study area. The Project site fronts onto a State facility requiring early consultation with Caltrans, and thoughtful consideration of assumptions and analysis. 1.3 APPROACH TO PROJECT MANAGEMENT Mr. Glenn Lajoie, AICP, who will serve as Project Director, and Ms. Rita Garcia, who will serve as Project Manager, will be responsible for management and supervision of the Project Team, as well as consultation with the City staff. The following summarizes our proposed approach to key Project Management tasks: Identify the Project. It is essential to the adequacy of the environmental analysis to have a clear understanding of what the Project involves, in order to address such issues as approach to environmental analysis, task refinement, staffing, labor, and schedule. Confirm the City's Desired Outcome. Michael Baker Project Management will consult with the City, in order to come to an understanding of the key Project issues and goals, and CEQA thresholds. Michael Baker will communicate to the City the specific criteria for Project completion. 2 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the ,,. TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report r: Delineate each of the Pro ecVs Component Tasks. The Project Manager will delineate in detail the tasks involved in the Project, which will include baseline research, agency consultation, peer reviews, preparation of Technical Studies, analysis of environmental issues, etc. Establish Schedule for Project Com onents /Milestones. The Project Manager will establish a timeline for each major Project component/milestone. The Project components (i.e., Parking Study and Technical Studies) will involve specific stages, each with their own time frame. Identify Critical Path [terns. The Project Manager will identify and closely monitor any critical path items, in order to ensure timely completion of the tasks. This includes identifying any issues such as holidays, vacations, agency criteria, with potential to disrupt schedule. Key to the Project's success will be to identify and address any such items, as early as possible. Identify the Project Team. Once the Project component tasks have been identified, the Project Manager will designate the responsible Team Member for completion of that task. These responsibilities will be clearly outlined so that the Team Member fully understands task, approach, budget, and schedule. Each Team Member will be provided a Project Description, Schedule, and EIR/Technical Writing Styles Sheet to ensure consistency and accuracy throughout the document, and a timely completion. Keel2lng the Project on Track. On an ongoing basis, the Project Manager will communicate with Project Team Members, subconsultants, and the City, in order to ensure the Project stays on Schedule and on Budget. Staffing needs and schedules will be assessed on a weekly basis. The Project Manager will implement scheduling systems designed to meet Project deadlines. Michael Baker's scheduling systems allocate resources to meet all client due dates, regardless of their timing or competing deadlines within a given period. The responsibility for planning and controlling a contract schedule belongs to the Project Manager, who will use weekly workload management meetings, long -range staffing projections, multi -media scheduling (word processing, graphics, editing, production scheduling), and timeline scheduling for tasks and milestones, among other systems. Also on an ongoing basis, the Project Manager will review the status of each Project task relative to the task's completion date and Budget. If needed, resources will be reallocated to ensure timely completion. Should factors outside of Michael Baker control influence timing, Michael Baker will, to the extent possible, reallocate staff to stay on track. If unavoidable, based on factors outside of Michael Baker control, Michael Baker will revise /update the Project Schedule in consultation with City staff. Keeping the Project Team Infoirt°ned. The Project Team will be kept up to date regarding key Project matters. This will be accomplished through internal Project Kick -Off Meeting, ongoing electronic communications, and periodic meetings. Provide Guidance/Quality Control. On an ongoing basis, the Project Manager will provide direction to all Team Members. The task completion status will be verified, along with what remains to be accomplished. Prior to each submittal milestone, the technical studies and environmental analyses will be reviewed by the Project Manager for legal defensibility, consistency, and technical accuracy. 3 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report w 1.4 APPROACH TO SPECIFIC PLAN PEER REVIEW The Project Applicant will prepare a Specific Plan for the entire 40 -acre site, addressing both The Lakes Golf Course and the TopGolf facility. The Specific Plan is needed, in order to expand the driving range facilities and corresponding uses beyond those currently allowed in the OS Zone. Other required entitlements include General Plan Amendment (text and map), Zoning Amendment (text and map), lot line adjustment, and use permits for alcohol service. Per the City's direction, the Specific Plan will follow the approach and content of the recently - prepared Raytheon South Campus Specific Plan. At a minimum, it is anticipated the Specific Plan will include a land use plan and development standards, and identify allowable land uses for all subsequent development within the Project area. Additionally, it is anticipated the Specific Plan will identify the infrastructure and services necessary to mitigate any impacts identified in the CEQA analysis. Michael Baker will conduct a peer review of the Applicant - prepared Specific Plan to ensure it has been prepared, in accordance with California Planning and Zoning law, and meets the City's expectations and objectives. The Specific Plan will serve as the primary document for developing the EIR Project Description and identifying the key Project Design Features. As the Specific Plan is on the critical path for the review and analysis of the overall TopGolf Specific Plan Project, coordination between the City, Applicant, and Michael Baker will be paramount. 1.5 APPROACH TO ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Michael Baker will work closely with the City of El Segundo to ensure that the environmental review process accurately addresses the Project impacts and ultimately complies with the State and City's environmental and development review processes. Michael Baker will be available to work in tandem with the City at appropriate Project milestones and participate in concurrent planning and environmental processes. As directed by the City, Michael Baker will also work with the City, in order to identify issues concerning use of City property, parking, etc. As the City's environmental consultant, Michael Baker will assist in anticipating issues, devising solutions, and providing expert counsel on how to achieve environmental compliance and ultimate approval of the various entitlements required for the Project. Michael Baker's approach is to prepare environmental documents that are legally comprehensive, objective, technically accurate, and complete. We have the professional experience and are looking forward to making the commitment to facilitate the Project's planning documentation and environmental compliance. 4 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report The following Scope of Work (SOW) has been prepared based upon direction from City staff and the scope of work refinements /changes discussed at the April 14, 2016 and May 11, 2016 EIR Scoping Meetings. The cost estimate, which is itemized according to task and issue, is included in Section IV. INr IN .� �w a 1 1 DRAFT SPECIFIC PLAN Michael Baker will conduct a peer review of the Applicant - prepared TopGolf Specific Plan Project. It is anticipated that at a minimum, the Specific Plan will establish a land use plan, allowable land uses and development standards, a circulation plan, and address connectivity and compatibility with surrounding land uses. It is also anticipated the Specific Plan will identify infrastructure and other relevant services, and address anticipated environmental impacts. Peer review of the Draft Specific Plan will include the following general tasks: 1. Coordination with the City and Applicant. 2. Review of the Draft Specific Plan to ensure it is consistent with the General Plan and meets minimum State requirements. 3. Preparation of one set of comments detailing document references (page & paragraph), omissions / deficiencies /errors /clarifications needed, and potential implications on the EIR analyses. Michael Baker will complete its peer review within two weeks of a formal notice to proceed. Afterthe initial review is completed, Michael Baker will verbally discuss their findings with the City and prepare a memorandum, which will be submitted to the City. Deliverables Draft Specific Plan Peer Review Memorandum 1.2 REVISED SPECIFIC PLAIN Michael Baker will review /comment on the Revised Specific Plan to ensure City and Michael Baker's initial comments and Draft Specific Plan have been addressed. This task assumes up to 16 hours of follow -up review. Deliverables Revised Specific Plan Technical Memorandum 1.3 MEETING AND HEARING ATTENDANCE Michael Baker will attend: one meeting with the City to discuss findings of the Draft Specific Plan peer review; and two Public Hearings; see Task 2.7.2 below. 5 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report 2.1 PROJECT SCOPMNG 2.1.1 PROJECT KICK -OFF AND PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS The Project EIR work program will be initiated with a Kick -Off Meeting with City staff to discuss the CEQA Project in greater detail. This initial meeting is vital to the success of the Project and its CEQA process, and will be a key milestone, in order to confirm the City's expectations and Project goals, and develop /refine the Project Description. This meeting will also establish the analysis' parameters, details of the proposed construction buildout conditions, scheduling, and overall communications. Prior to the Kick -Off Meeting, Michael Baker will distribute a Kick -Off Meeting Agenda and detailed memorandum identifying data needs. Deliverables • Memorandum of Data Needs • Meeting Agenda • Meeting Action Items Two Michael Baker staff will attend the Project Kick -Off Meeting; see Task 2.7.2 below. 2.1.2 RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATION Michael Baker will obtain and review available referenced data for the Project, including policy documentation from City staff, County of Los Angeles, State and Federal agencies, the South Bay Cities Council of Governments, and all other agencies that may be affected by the Project. This task includes review of the Project Application, in order to advise the City of any additional information that should be provided by the Applicant. The data collected in this task will become part of the EIR's foundation and will be reviewed and incorporated into the analysis, as deemed appropriate. 2.1.3 AGENCY CONSULTATION As indicated in CEQA Guidelines Section 15083, public agencies have found that early consultation solves many potential conflicts that could arise in more serious forms later in the review process. Although the Notice of Preparation and Public Scoping Meeting will provide that opportunity, Michael Baker will conduct additional discussions with Federal, State, and local agencies, which will assist in the early stages of the analysis and issue delineation. Michael Baker will work with the City to identify relevant agencies and stakeholders. This scoping can be an effective way to bring together and resolve concerns of affected federal, State, and local agencies, as well as those of the local community. Given the Project's location, it is anticipated that early and ongoing consultation with Caltrans will be required. 2.1.4 INITIAL STUDY The Initial Study (IS) will include detailed explanations of all checklist determinations and discussions of potential environmental impacts. The analysis will be prepared in accordance with Public Resources Code Section 21080(c) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15070. The IS will be 6 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan r ' Project Environmental Impact Report w f structured in the same format as CEQA Guidelines Appendix G and will describe the Project's location, environmental setting, and characteristics. The main body of the document will consist of a City- approved environmental checklist and an accompanying environmental analysis. This section will denote the appropriate CEQA action based upon the Environmental Checklist/Environmental Analysis. This Scope assumes the appropriate CEQA action is an EIR. The Project will be analyzed for its potential to create significant environmental impacts in the areas specified on the City's approved environmental checklist. The IS will also include mandatory findings of significance, long -term versus short-term goals, cumulative impacts, and direct and indirect impacts upon human beings. Michael Baker will respond to one complete set of City comments on the Administrative Initial Study. If desired by the City, Michael Baker will provide the Proofcheck IS with all changes highlighted to assist the final check of the document. Michael Baker will prepare and distribute (via certified mail) the IS, along with the NOP; see Task 2.2 below. 2.1.5 PUBLIC SCOPING MEETING A Public Scoping Meeting, which can also involve Federal, State, or other local agencies, will be scheduled during the NOP public review period, in order for the community to gain an understanding of the proposed Project and provide comments on environmental concerns. The Scoping Meeting will orient the community on the CEQA review process and will be presented in a manner thatwould enable the community to gain a greater understanding of the proposal, intent of CEQA, and the key issue areas to be addressed in the EIR. Michael Baker will provide a PowerPoint Presentation, handouts, and presentation -size graphics to supplement the discussion. Following the presentation, the meeting will be devoted to public participation, questions, and comments. Written comment forms will be provided for this purpose, and these comments, along with oral comments, will become a part of the administrative record. The Agency Consultation, IS, and Public Scoping Meeting will be used to identify potential conflicts that could arise in more serious forms later in the review process and refine scope of environmental analysis, if warranted. Deliverables • 1 electronic copy of Proofcheck IS; • 1 electronic copy of Public Review IS; • 20 hard copies of IS (15 to State Clearinghouse + 5 to City); and • 40 CDs of IS (15 to State Clearinghouse + 5 to City + 20 Distribution List). 2.2 PUBLIC NOTICES & CONSULTATION 2.2.1 CEQA Notices Michael Baker will prepare for City review and distribute all CEQA Notices, as outlined below.

Deliverables • Consultation Summary Spreadsheet M • Copies of all Consultation Communications May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report 2.3 ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT EIR The TopGolf Specific Plan Project EIR will be structured as outlined below. 0 Section ES, Executive Surr ma contains a brief summary of the proposed actions and their consequences. This summary section also identifies each significant effect with proposed mitigation measures that would reduce or avoid that effect, and the Project alternatives. The areas of controversy and issues to be resolved are also included in this section. • Section Introduction and Purpose, provides CEQA compliance information. • Section 2.0, ELoLect Descrl tion, provides a detailed Project description indicating Project location and setting, background and history; Project characteristics, objectives, phasing, and associated discretionary actions required. • Section 3.0, Basis for the Cumulative Analysis, outlines the cumulative projects and describes the approach and methodology for the cumulative analysis. • Section Environmental Anal i , contains a detailed environmental analysis of the existing conditions, potential Project impacts, recommended mitigation measures, and significant unavoidable impacts for the following environmental topic areas: • Air Quality; • Greenhouse Gas Emissions; • Hazards and Hazardous Materials; • Hydrology and Water Quality; • Land Use and Planning; • Noise; • Public Services and Recreation; • Transportation and Traffic; and • Utilities and Service Systems. Each potentially significant environmental issue area will be addressed in a separate EIR section that will be organized, as follows: 1. "Regulatory Setting" lists and discusses the laws, ordinances, regulations, and standards that apply to the Project. 2. "Environmental Setting" describes the physical conditions that exist at the present time and that may influence or affect the issue under investigation. 3. "Impact Thresholds and Significance Criteria" provides the thresholds that are the basis of conclusions of significance, which are primarily the criteria in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Sections 15000 - 15387). Primary sources to be used in identifying the criteria include the City of El Segundo Guidelines; CEQA Guidelines; local, State, federal, or other standards applicable to an impact category; and officially established significance thresholds. 4. "Impacts and Mitigation Measures" describes changes or potential changes to the existing physical conditions that may occur if the proposed Project is implemented. Evidence based on factual and scientific data is presented to show the cause and effect relationship between the proposed Project and the potential changes in the environment. The exact magnitude, duration, extent, frequency, range or other May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report parameters of a potential impact are ascertained, to the extent possible, to determine whether impacts may be significant; all of the potential direct and reasonably foreseeable indirect effects are considered. The EIR will use the following terminology to describe the Project's environmental effects: • htqlMpact. The development would not have any measurable environmental impact on the environment. • Less Than Si nsficant Impact. The development would have the potential for impacting the environment, although this impact would be below established thresholds that are considered to be significant. Less Than St nifcant With Mitigation lncor grates . The development would have the potential to generate impacts, which may be considered as a significant effect on the environment, although mitigation measures or changes to the development's physical or operational characteristics can reduce these impacts to levels that are less than significant. • St nlfrcant Unavoidable lml2ac t. When an impact, even with the inclusion of mitigation measures, cannot be mitigated to a level considered less than significant, it is identified as "significant unavoidable impact." The "Level of Significance After Mitigation" identifies the impacts that would remain despite the application of mitigation measures, and whether the remaining impact is or is not considered significant. 5. "Mitigation Measures" are measures that would be required of the Project to avoid a significant adverse impact; to minimize a significant adverse impact; to rectify a significant adverse impact by restoration; to reduce or eliminate a significant adverse impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations; or to compensate for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources or environment. It is also noted that a project could result in a beneficial impact. If the analysis concludes that the Project would result in a beneficial environmental impact, it is identified as such. 6. "Cumulative Impacts" describes potential environmental changes to the existing physical conditions that may occur as a result of the proposed Project together with cumulative projects, which include past and present projects, as well as future projects that would change the "existing physical conditions" or that are "reasonably foreseeable, planned, and approved future projects." 7. "Significant Unavoidable Impacts" describes impacts that would be significant and cannot be feasibly mitigated to less than significant, and thus would be unavoidable. 8. "Sources Cited" identifies the sources used throughout the section. 10 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the - TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report • Section 5. r. Other CE A Considerations, discusses the long -term implications of the proposed action. Irreversible environmental changes that would be involved in the proposed action, should it be implemented, are considered. The Project's growth- inducing impacts, including the potential for population growth, and energy conservation (CEQA Appendix F) impacts are also discussed. • Section 6.0, , Alternatives to the Proposed Action, describes a reasonable range of alternatives to the Project or its location that could avoid or substantially lessen the Project's significant impacts and still feasibly attain the Project's basic objectives. • Section Effects Found Not to be Si raificar�t, provides an explanation of potential effects that have been determined not to be significant. • Section 8.0, Or anizatfons and Persons Consulted, identifies all federal, State, and local agencies, other organizations, and individuals consulted. • Section Appendices, contains the Project's technical documentation. 2.3.1 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE The Introduction will cite the CEQA provisions and CEQA Guidelines, and the City's CEQA Guidelines for which the proposed Project is subject. This section will identify the purpose of the study and statutory authority as well document scoping procedures, summary of the EIR format, listing of responsible and trustee agencies and documentation incorporated by reference. 2.3.2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Executive Summary will include a Project Summary, an overview of Project impacts, mitigation measures, levels of significance after mitigation, summary of Project alternatives, and areas of controversy and issues to be resolved. The Environmental Summary will be presented in a columnar format. 2.3.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Based upon the detailed CEQA Project information obtained at the Project Kick -Off Meeting (see Task 2.1.1 above), as well as the Draft Specific Plan, Michael Baker will prepare a Draft Project Description for City review and approval. The Project Description will detail the Project's location, environmental setting, background and history, characteristics, discretionary actions, goals and objectives, construction program, phasing, agreements, and required permits and approvals, based on available information. Michael Baker will work with City to finalize the list of land use approvals and permits that will be required. This section will include Exhibits depicting the regional and site vicinity, as well as key Project components. City - approval of the Project Description will enable Michael Baker to proceed with the impact analyses. 2.3.4 THRESHOLDS OF SIGNIFICANCE This section will provide a comprehensive description of thresholds of significance for each issue area of the environmental analysis. The significance threshold criteria will be described and will provide the basis for conclusions of significance. Primary sources to be used in identifying the 11 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the ,R. TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report criteria include the CEQA Guidelines, federal, State, and local or other standards applicable to an impact category. 2.3.5 CUMULATIVE PROJECTS /ANALYSIS In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130, the EIR will include a section providing a detailed listing of cumulative projects and actions under consideration for the analysis. The likelihood of occurrence and level of severity will be studied. The purpose of the section is to present a listing and description of projects, past, present and anticipated in the reasonably foreseeable future, even if those projects are outside of El Segundo's jurisdiction. The potential for impact and levels of significance are contingent upon the radius or area of interaction with the Project. Michael Baker will consult with City staff and other applicable local jurisdictions to define the appropriate study area for the cumulative analysis. The cumulative analysis for each topical area will be incorporated throughout the environmental analyses. This task assumes a maximum of 16 hours for consultation with other jurisdictions, including preparation of letters and cumulative projects list. 2.3.6 ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Michael Baker will evaluate the necessary information with respect to existing conditions, the potential adverse Project effects (both individual and cumulative), including the requested land use entitlements, and measures to mitigate such effects. Environmental issues raised during the scoping process (NOP responses and Public Scoping Meeting), and any other relevant and valid informative sources will also be evaluated. The analyses will be based upon all available data, results from additional research, and an assessment of existing technical data. These analyses will be performed by qualified Michael Baker Environmental Analysts, CEQA experts, and Planners. The EIR Environmental Analysis section will thoroughly discuss the existing baseline conditions for each environmental issue area, and will identify the Project's short-term construction and long -term operational impacts and their levels of significance. The impact analysis will be in a consistent order of environmental factors presented in CEQA Guidelines Appendix G (Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, etc.). The thresholds of significance will be identified for each environmental issue area. A brief discussion will be provided for all environmental issues determined to be No Impact or Less Than Significant Impact in the Initial Study, explaining why these determinations were made and that no further analysis in the EIR is warranted. The Impact Subsection will provide a detailed analysis of each issue determined to be Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated or Potentially Significant Impact. For each environmental issue requiring EIR analysis, the EIR will: describe the baseline conditions; determine the impact's level of significance; specify mitigation measures to avoid or lessen the impact; and determine the level of significance after mitigation. It has preliminarily been determined the following environmental issue areas will be analyzed in the EIR: A. Air Quality Existing Conditions /Re ulatory Framework. The Project is located within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). Baseline meteorological and air quality data developed through the California Air Resources Board (CARB) will be utilized for the description of existing ambient air quality. Air quality data from the nearest representative air quality monitoring stations (Los Angeles- Westchester Parkway and Compton Monitoring Stations) will be included to help highlight existing air quality local 12 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report to the Project area. The analysis will also describe and address the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook requirements. Construction - Related Emissions. Construction emissions will be quantified with the California Emissions Estimator Model (CaIEEMod version 2013.2.2). A general description of the major construction phases and their timing will be required from the Applicant/City. The air pollutant emissions during construction will be compared to the SCAQMD regional thresholds of significance. Naturally occurring asbestos impacts will also be discussed qualitatively. Long-Term Emissions. Operational (i.e., area and mobile source) emissions will be quantified and compared to the SCAQMD regional thresholds of significance. Primary sources of emissions will be related to area sources, energy sources, and local /regional vehicle miles traveled, and will be derived from CaIEEMod and the Traffic Impact Analysis. Project consistency with the 2012 Air Quality Management Plan (2012 AQMP) will be evaluated. Localized Emissions. The Project is located within the SCAQMD's Source Receptor Area 3 (Southwest Coastal LA County). Based on localized meteorological data for SRA 3, Michael Baker will analyze localized impacts based upon the SCAQMD's Localized Significance Thresholds (LST) methodology. B. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Michael Baker will review the land use data and will prepare an inventory of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (i.e., nitrous oxide, methane, and carbon dioxide) from both direct (i.e., area and mobile sources) and indirect sources (i.e., energy /water consumption and wastewater /solid waste generation). In addition, total GHG emissions from construction activities will be amortized into the GHG emissions inventory. CaIEEMod will be used to quantify GHG emissions. Reductions from recently adopted programs and regulations will be included, such as improvements in fuel efficiency, state building code energy efficiency, and landscaping water efficiency. The net Project - related GHG emissions will be assessed against the proposed SCAQMD project -level efficiency threshold of 4.8 metric tons per year per service population. Mitigation measures will be identified and incorporated, as necessary, to reduce the Project's potentially significant GHG impacts. The GHG emissions analysis will also discuss the potential global climate change impacts, the effects of GHG emissions, and history of California GHG emissions regulations. Project consistency with statewide GHG emissions reduction strategies such as the CARB Scoping Plan and the Southern California Association of Governments' Regional Transportation Plan /Sustainable Community Strategy will also be reviewed. Michael Baker will analyze the Project's energy implications pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21100(b)(3) and CEQA Guidelines Appendix F. These statutes and guidelines require CEQA compliance documentation to describe, where relevant, the wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy caused by a project. The analysis will address energy consumption associated with short-term construction activities, long -term operations, buildings, and transportation. Additionally, the assessment of environmental impacts on energy resources will include mitigation measures (if necessary) to reduce inefficient and unnecessary consumption of energy. 13 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report t C. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Michael Baker has teamed with Roux Associates, Inc. (Roux Associates) for peer review of the Applicant - prepared Phase I Environmental Site Assessment and Phase II Subsurface Investigation Report. The peer review will be for the purposes of incorporation into the EIR. This scope assumes redevelopment is being considered for the site. The purpose of Roux Associates' peer review will be to understand the Project site's environmental condition (using the two available environmental documents) and provide questions and feedback to the City relative to the complete nature and standard of care used in preparing the documents. Roux Associates also will identify potential risks for the site with focus on those that could be encountered during the site redevelopment and during future site occupancy. Based on a thorough review of the documents provided, Roux Associates will identify open environmental issues, if any, and provide appropriate comments and questions as they pertain to potential open issues /potential impediments to s ite redevelopment that is currently proposed. In addition, Roux Associates will identify mitigation measures that may be adopted for incorporation into the CEQA document. Roux Associates will complete their peer review within two weeks of a formal notice to proceed. After the initial review is completed, Michael Baker /Roux Associates will verbally discuss their findings with the City and then prepare a memorandum, which will be submitted to the City. Based on the findings of the Roux Associates peer review, Michael Baker will prepare the EIR section that addresses the CEQA thresholds outlined below. Specifically, would the Project: « Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one - quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? D. Hydrology and Water Quality The Michael Baker Stormwater Management (SWM) Team will conduct a peer review of the Applicant - prepared Hydrology and Water Quality Study. Michael Baker will review the Study to ensure it contains a review of existing documentation, watershed boundary delineation, existing conditions hydrology analysis, proposed conditions hydrology analysis, analysis of existing and proposed drainage facilities, and water quality BMP mitigation. After the initial review is completed, Michael Baker will verbally discuss their findings with the City and prepare a memorandum, which will be submitted to the City. 14 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report Michael Baker will review /comment on the Revised Hydrology and Water Quality Study to ensure City and Michael Baker's initial comments and Draft Study have been addressed. This task assumes up to eight (8) hours of follow -up review. E. Land Use and Planning To accommodate the proposed Project, the Applicant proposes to remove the onsite structures and expand the existing parking lot serving the golf course. The Project involves development of a 65,000 square -foot three story TopGolf facility. Preliminarily, the following City of El Segundo discretionary entitlements have been identified for the Project: General Plan Amendment (text and » Lot line adjustment; and map); . Use permits for alcohol service. Zoning Amendment (text and map); This section will also evaluate the Project's merits with particular attention given to land use compatibility between the proposed development and existing surrounding land uses. Consideration will be given to environmental factors that influence land use compatibility, including air quality, noise, and traffic. Michael Baker intends to utilize information available from the City, as well as the NOP process, to identify particular concerns and any potential for public controversy. F. Noise Existing Conditions. The applicable noise and land use compatibility criteria for the Project area will be reviewed and noise standards regulating noise impacts will be discussed for land uses on and adjacent to the Project site. A site visit will be conducted and short-term noise level measurements will be taken along the Project area. The noise monitoring survey will be conducted at up to four separate locations to establish baseline noise levels in the Project area. Noise recording lengths are anticipated to require approximately 10 minutes at each location. This scope excludes long -term (24 -hour) measurements. Construction - Related Noise and Vibration. Construction activities would occur during implementation of the proposed Project. Noise impacts from construction sources will be analyzed based on the anticipated equipment to be used, length of a specific construction task, equipment power type (gasoline or diesel engine), horsepower, load factor, and percentage of time in use. The construction noise impacts will be evaluated in terms of hourly equivalent continuous noise levels (Leq) and the frequency of occurrence at adjacent sensitive locations. An analysis of vibration impacts will be based on the Federal Transit Administration's vibration analysis guidance. Analysis requirements will be based on the sensitivity of the area, specific construction activities, and Noise Ordinance specifications. Operational Noise Sources. On- and off -site noise impacts from vehicular traffic will be assessed using the U.S. Federal Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model (FHWA -RD -77 -108 and TNM 2.5). The 24 -hour weighted Community Noise Equivalent Levels (CNEL) will be presented in a tabular format. On -site noise generating activities will also be addressed and analyzed for potential impacts to the adjacent uses and will be assessed against the City's Land Use Noise and Compatibility Matrix and Interior /Exterior Noise Guidelines. 15 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan m. Project Environmental Impact Report G. Public Services /Recreation /Utilities and Service Systems Michael Baker will contact potentially affected agencies to confirm relevant existing conditions, Project impacts, and recommend mitigation measures. The discussion will focus on the potential alteration of existing facilities, extension or expansion of new facilities, and the increased demand on services based on the proposed land uses. Michael Baker will evaluate the Project's ability to receive adequate service based on applicable City standards and, where adequate services are not available, will identify the effects of inadequate service and recommend mitigation measures. Issues addressed include the following: • Publ /c Services: The Project will be evaluated for its potential to result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with proposed /required new or physically altered governmental facilities, including fire protection, police protection, schools, parks, and other public facilities. l ecreatlon The analysis will address whether the Project would increase the use of existing neighborhood /regional parks or other recreational facilities, and whether it includes recreational facilities or requires the construction /expansion of recreational facilities. Utilities and Service Systems: The Project will be evaluated for its potential to require or result in the construction of new water, wastewater, treatment, and storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities. The analysis will also address whether the Project would have sufficient water supplies available from existing entitlements and resources, or would new or expanded entitlements be needed. Landfill capacity and compliance with solid waste regulations will also be addressed. H. Transportation and Circulation Michael Baker will prepare a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) that will assess the Project impacts by analyzing forecast trip generation, distribution, and assignment of the proposed Project on the study area circulation system. As necessary, feasible mitigation measures for identified Project - generated traffic impacts will be recommended in accordance with applicable agency performance criteria and thresholds of significance. This scope of work is based on discussions with City staff and assumes the Project will be analyzed in a single phase. Additionally, it is noted this scope of work is preliminary and may be further refined, based upon City, Caltrans, and other agency consultation. Study Conditions. Based on discussions with City staff, the traffic analysis will evaluate the following 12 analysis scenarios during the typical weekday PM peak hour and typical weekend -day mid -day peak hour: 1. Existing Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; 2. Existing Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions; 3. Forecast Existing Plus Project Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; 4. Forecast Existing Plus Project Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions; 5. Forecast Project Opening Year Without Project Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; 6. Forecast Project Opening Year Without Project Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions; 7. Forecast Project Opening Year With Project Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; 8. Forecast Project Opening Year With Project Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions; 9. Forecast Long -Range Without Project Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; 16 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the ` TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report 10. Forecast Long -Range Without Project Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions; 11. Forecast Long -Range With Project Weekday PM Peak Hour Conditions; and 12. Forecast Long -Range With Project Weekend -Day Mid -Day Peak Hour Conditions. Stud Area. The study area of traffic impact analyses is largely determined by the Project's forecast trip generation. However, in the case of the proposed Project, the Project's forecast trip generation is unknown at the time of the writing of this proposal given that the Project is considered a special trip generator, since the Project's forecast trip generation cannot be determined from existing published industry trip generation sources such as the Institute or Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. The Project's forecast trip generation will be determined as part of the TIA. Therefore, for scoping and budgeting purposes, this proposal assumes up to 24 study intersections will be analyzed for the 12 study analysis scenarios listed above. The precise identification of the study intersections will be based on discussions with City staff accounting for the Project's forecast trip generation. Hence, as part of the analysis, up to 23 study intersections will be counted during a typical weekday PM peak period (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) and a typical weekend -day (four -hour peak period to be determined based on discussions with City staff and Caltrans). The analysis will utilize the highest hour of traffic volumes collected within each peak period. This scope of work does not assume vehicle classification traffic count data collection, nor does it assume collection of 24 -hour daily roadway traffic volumes. The number of study intersections can be modified based on discussions with City and Caltrans staff, along with the fee associated with this proposal accordingly. Given that some study intersections may be located outside of the City of El Segundo, the traffic analysis will utilize applicable agency performance criteria and thresholds of significance as appropriate. Due to the overlap of jurisdictions, some study intersections may be analyzed and subject to multiple jurisdiction traffic impact review. Study intersections within Caltrans jurisdiction Caltrans will be analyzed in accordance with the Caltrans Guide forthe Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies (State of California Department of Transportation, December 2002). Site Visit/Existing Systems Documentation. The analysis will: • Document existing conditions including intersection control, traffic signal phasing, roadway cross - section, speed limits, parking restrictions, intersection approach lanes, etc.; • Include graphics documenting the existing intersection roadway geometry; and • Utilize existing geometric conditions to establish a baseline for current operations. Proposed Project Trip__ Generation Trip Distribution and, Assi nment. The analysis will determine the weekday and weekend peak hour and daily trip generation for the proposed Project utilizing the trip generation data collected at the following two existing TopGolf sites as part of the separate parking analysis scope of work previously submitted to the City: • 1689 South San Tan Village Parkway, Gilbert Arizona; and • 9500 East Indian Bend Road, Scottsdale, Arizona. Since The Lakes at El Segundo 9 -hole golf course will remain and a portion of the TopGolf Project will displace the existing driving range of The Lakes at El Segundo, the Project's trip generation will be adjusted to deduct the trips associated with golfers currently utilizing the driving range at The Lakes at El Segundo 9 -hole golf course. This scope of work assumes the City will provide the operational details for the current uses, including the number of golfers currently utilizing The Lakes 17 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report at El Segundo driving range on a typical weekday and a typical weekend on an hourly basis. The analysis will convert that information to vehicle trips assuming an average vehicle ridership (AVR) of 1.0 (each golfer at the range arrives and leaves in a separate vehicle) or other AVR factor as directed by City staff. All assumptions regarding forecast project trip generation will be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to inclusion in the analysis. The TIA will provide a forecast distribution of Project - generated trips, taking into account any modifications to the study area provided by City /applicable agency staff. Manual distribution and assignment of forecast Project trips will be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to utilization in the analysis. Forecast Project Opening Year Traffic Volumes. Forecast Project Opening Year Conditions traffic volumes and scenario will be derived by applying the Los Angeles County CMP growth rate for the El Segundo /LAX area to existing traffic volumes and also the addition of background trips associated with up to thirty (30) individual cumulative projects provided by City staff. Forecast Lon -Ran e Year Traffic Volumes. Forecast Long -Range Without Project Conditions traffic volumes and scenario will be derived by applying the Los Angeles County CMP growth rate for the El Segundo /LAX area to existing conditions and /or addition of background trips associated with up to seventy (70) individual cumulative projects provided by City staff (including the 30 individual cumulative projects from Project opening year conditions). Level of Service. The analysis will assess the Project's forecast traffic impacts at the 24 study intersections for the 12 analysis scenarios identified above. The analysis will document operation of the signalized study intersections using the Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) analysis methodology for City and /or County Congestion Management Program (CMP) intersections and the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) analysis methodology for Caltrans State Highway intersections, as directed by the City staff to identify potential Project - related traffic impacts. Intersection level of service analysis will be prepared using the TraffixTM software. If a study intersection is located within more than one jurisdiction, the analysis will utilize the most stringent applicable agency performance criteria and thresholds of significance to determine potential Project traffic significant impacts. If the analysis indicates the proposed Project will significantly impact the study intersections based on agency thresholds of significance, feasible mitigation measures will be recommended in accordance with established agency performance criteria. The analysis will document forecast operating conditions after implementation of recommended feasible mitigation measures. State Highway Intersection Analysis. The Caltrans traffic studies guide requires review of substantial individual projects, which may on their own impact the State Highway transportation system. The State Highway intersection analysis will be prepared in accordance with the Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies (State of California Department of Transportation, December 2002), assuming the State Highway analysis study area will consist of only the State Highway intersections in the study area. Study intersections will be analyzed as discussed in the Level of Service section above. This scope of work assumes no State Highway freeway mainline or freeway ramp analysis is included. The analysis will assess the Project's forecast traffic impacts at the State Highway study facilities for the peak hours and analysis scenarios identified above in the study scenarios section. The analysis will document operation of the study intersections for the analysis scenarios to identify potential Project - related traffic impacts using the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2000 analysis methodology. 18 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report If the State Highway intersection analysis shows the proposed Project will significantly impact a State Highway facility based on Caltrans thresholds of significance, feasible mitigation measures will be recommended in accordance with Caltrans performance criteria. The analysis will also document forecast operating conditions after application of any recommended mitigation measures. County Congestion Management Program Anal is. The analysis will analyze potential Project impacts, as applicable and as required by the County of Los Angeles Congestion Management Program (CMP). If the CMP analysis shows the proposed Project will significantly impact a CMP study facility based on applicable CMP agency thresholds of significance, feasible mitigation measures will be recommended in accordance with applicable agency performance criteria. Conference Calls Meetings, Coordination and Hearing Attendance. This scope of work assumes: 1) Participation of up to thirty (30) hours of Project conference calls and coordination throughout the course of the TIA preparation. 2) Attendance at one (1) meeting with Caltrans District 7 staff to discuss the Project and up to three (3) hours of meeting /material preparation. 3) Attendance at up to two (2) Planning Commission Hearings for the proposed Project and up to three staff (3) hours of meeting /material preparation (PowerPoint presentation, etc.) for each of the two (2) Planning Commission Hearings. 4) Attendance at one (1) City Council Hearing for the proposed Project and up to three (3) staff hours of meeting /material preparation (PowerPoint presentation, etc.) for the City Council Hearing. 2.3.7 GROWTH INDUCEMENT The proposed TopGolf facility would include 102 driving range bays that would accommodate up to six players at a time. Assuming full driving range bay capacity, up to 612 players could be accommodated at a time, in addition to the individuals enjoying the full - service restaurant, bar, lounges, and corporate event/meeting spaces, and the approximately 500 individuals that would be employed at operation. Michael Baker will provide a Project - specific analysis of potential growth - inducing impacts pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126(g). This analysis will be based on data from the City of El Segundo General Plan, California Department of Finance, and U.S. Census. This section will discuss ways in which the proposed Project could foster economic or population growth, or the construction of additional housing, either directly or indirectly. The analysis will address growth- inducing impacts concerning the Project's potential to influence the rate, location, or amount of growth, based on the Project's consistency with adopted /proposed plans that have addressed growth management from a local and regional standpoint. The Project's potential growth- inducing impacts will be analyzed as they relate to population, housing, and employment factors. 2.3.8 ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED ACTION In coordination with City staff, Michael Baker will develop Project alternatives designed to avoid and /or substantially reduce any impacts that cannot otherwise be mitigated to a level below 19 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the TopGolf Specific Plan Project Environmental Impact Report significance. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6, Michael Baker will provide an analysis of a "reasonable range" of alternatives, comparing environmental impacts of each alternative in each impact area to the Project. Preliminarily, the range of Alternatives is expected to include the No Project/No Development, and two other Alternatives that may be considered through the Project review process.

Ms. Garcia, along with other key Project Team personnel, will also be available to attend meetings with affected jurisdictions, agencies, and organizations as needed to identify issues, assess impacts, and define mitigation. This scope assumes an initial budget of 119 man -hours of meetings, including preparation, attendance, and follow -up. This scope also assumes a budget of 15 hours of conference calls. Meetings and Hearings • 1 EIR Scoping Meeting (April 14, 2016) (15 man - hours); • 1 Specific Plan Peer Review Meeting (8 man - hours) (also see Task 1.3); • 1 Project Kick -Off Meeting (16 man - hours) (also see Task 2.1.1); • 1 Public Scoping Meeting (16 man - hours) (also see Task 2.1.5); • 1 Progress Meeting to review Administrative DEIR City comments (16 man - hours); 2 Planning Commission Hearings with presentations, as necessary (16 man -hours each, 32 man -hours total); 1 City Council (16 man - hours) with presentations, as necessary; Conference Calls it 6 Progress Conference Calls over 6 months (1 hour each, 12 man - hours) to provide a status update, resolve issues, and receive direction. • 1 Land Use Assumptions /Parking Study/Traffic Impact Analysis Scoping Conference Call (April 20, 2016) (3 man - hours).

The estimated cost for additional meetings is approximately $1,600 per staff (approximately 8 man - hours) per meeting, excluding other direct costs. 2.7.3 PARKING STUDY COORDINATION The December 17, 2015 Parking Study scope of work estimated 25 hours of Bob Matson time for Parking Study preparation. These hours have been expended and exceeded. Specifically, these hours have been expended beyond the parking analysis budget due to all of the additional coordination required with multiple TopGolf staff in TX and AZ, as explained below. Therefore, it is requested that the additional 25 hours of Bob Matson time be restored under this task. After Baker had coordinated to survey Scottsdale, AZ and Gilbert, AZ sites per our scope of work, TopGolf staff directed Baker to switch the survey sites from the Scottsdale, AZ and Gilbert, AZ site to instead survey TopGolf sites in Webster, TX and Spring, TX. After Baker had started that coordination, TopGolf staff directed Baker to switch back to the original AZ survey sites. TopGolfs reasoning for switching survey sites from AZ to TX was because by the time TopGolf staff was ready for Baker to begin collecting survey data at the AZ sites, it was early March, which meant Spring Training had begun in the Phoenix area, meaning AZ TopGolf sites were experiencing higher than typical operating conditions. Hence, TopGolf corporate staff asked Baker to instead count TopGolf survey sites in another region of the country such as the Houston area where those TopGolf sites would be experiencing typical operating conditions. Hence, Baker was subsequently required to coordinate with various local TopGolf staff at the Webster, TX and Spring, TX TopGolf 23 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Proposal for the .y TopGolf Specific Plan r' Project Environmental Impact Report sites to determine whether these would be credible TopGolf sites (such as the TopGolf project in El Segundo). After substantial coordination with local TopGolf staff at the Spring, TX and Webster, TX sites, it was determined that neither of these sites, or other TopGolf sites proposed by TopGolf corporate staff in TX, were credible to survey since the TX sites were not representative of the proposed El Segundo project. Hence, since approximately a month had passed and Spring Training would be ending soon in the Phoenix area, Baker suggested to TopGolf staff that Baker go back and investigate the credibility of the Scottsdale, AZ and Gilbert, AZ sites as originally planned. TopGolf staff agreed to this and subsequently Baker began the coordination process over once again with the local Topgolf staff in Scottsdale, AZ and Gilbert, AZ to determine their credibility to survey for the El Segundo project. Ultimately after much coordination with local Topgolf staff at the Scottsdale, AZ and Gilbert, AZ sites, Baker was able to finally determine that these AZ sites would be credible to survey, although extra coordination and data collection was necessary at the Scottsdale site since Topgolf employees at that location were told to park away from the Topgolf site at the adjacent business park parking lot. 24 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A 25 May 12, 2016 Agreement No. 4924 -3A Specific Plan Schedule Applicant- Prepares Draft Specific Plan (SP) Month 1 Baker Conducts Draft SP Peer Review Month 2 Applicant Revises Draft SP Month 2 Baker Reviews Revised SP Month 2 CEQA Schedule EIR Project Kickoff Meeting Month 1 Baker Prepares Draft Project Description Month 1 Initial Study /Notice of Preparation Month 1 30 -Day NOP Public Review Month 2 EIR Public Scoping Meeting Month 2 AB 52 Consultation Months 2 - 3 SB 18 Consultation Months 2 - 7 Baker Prepares Administrative Draft EIR Months 2 - 4 City Reviews Administrative Draft EIR Month 4 Baker Prepares Preliminary Draft EIR Month 5 City Reviews Preliminary Draft EIR Month 5 Baker Completes, Publishes, and Circulates Draft EIR Month 5 45 -Day Draft EIR Public Review Period Months 5 - 6 Public Hearing During Draft EIR Public Review Period Month 6 Baker Prepares Draft Responses to Comments Month 6 City Reviews Draft Responses to Comments Month 6 - 7 Baker Prepares Administrative Final EIR Months 8 City Reviews Administrative Final EIR Month 8 Baker Completes, Publishes, and Circulates Final EIR Month 9 Certification Hearing TBD 1 This schedule assumes on -going coordination and meetings with the Project Team through the duration of the Project.
