(CSW I ST2) appreciates the opportunity to present our proposal for topographic and boundary mapping services at the frontage of 25560 Alamont Rd in Los Altos Hills., CA. The following comprises our scope of services, fees and schedule. SCOPE OF SERVICES TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY AND MAP CSW I ST2 will conduct a topographic survey of a portion of 25560 Alamont Rd in Los Altos Hills the extent of which is shown on the attached sketch. The topographic survey will tie into existing record monuments on site as horizontal datum. Once the field survey is complete we will reduce the collected field data., create CAD line work, build a surface., and generate contours for the topographic base drawing. Once the base is complete we will create a Topographic Map with annotation.,, notes.., and spot elevations. The Topographic Map will be prepared on a 24"x36" sheet at an appropriate engineering scale of 1"-20' or 1"=30'. The field survey and topographic map will collect and depict the following: 1. Horizontal Datum will be based on record bearings and found monuments in the field 2. Vertical Datum will be assumed. 3. Boundary lines will be shown based on a retracement of 375 of Maps, page 52, Santa Clara County Records. 4. One foot contours 5. Spot Elevations on hardscape, features, flat areas, grade breaks, etc. 6. Retaining walls, seat walls, decorative walls, etc. 7. Fences 8. Concrete and pavement areas 9. Curbs and pathways 10. Observed surface utilities (utility boxes, vaults, meters., valves., etc.) 11. Drainage structures with rim/grate elevation and bottom of structure (if accessible) W:\AD-NOV\WP\7\PROPOSAL TEIvIPLATES\Response to Comments Letter Template.docx CSW I S T 2 Los Altos Hills February 11, 2020 Page 2 12. Sewer structures such as man holes, and cleanouts with rim elevation 13. Trees greater than 6" in diameter (measured at breast height) 14. Building Corners and structures Deliverable: Signed and stamped PDF and a zip file containing all the AutoCAD files of the Topographic Survey Map. Our scope includes the services outlined in the Scope of Services section above, but excludes the preparation of a Record of Survey. If over the course of the survey any of the items listed under section 8762(a -f) of the Professional Land Surveyors' Act are triggered, it requires the filing of a Record of Survey Map with the local county, per California State Law, which is not included in this scope of work and will require a change order. FEES CSW I ST2 agrees to provide the services described on a time and expense not to exceed basis with a budget estimate of $7,410 based on our current Hourly Rates and Billing Policy, a copy of which is enclosed. The budget is based on the assumption of us locating monuments and not finding any ambiguities on the distances between the monuments. Since someone else set stakes recently that the Town wants us to check we are assuming the monuments are there and match the recorded map. With that said, if the monuments are off (material discrepancy) we would be on the hook for filing a Record of Survey and would then need to process a change order to prepare the map as we are required by law (8762 of the Professional Lands Surveyors' Act) to file. Invoices for services rendered will be issued on a monthly basis. Payment terms are net 30 days from the date of the invoice. Late payments are subject to interest charges at the rate of 18% per annum. Reimbursable costs for printing, supplies, agency submittal/permit fees, travel and other miscellaneous or incidental expenses will be billed in addition to the amounts shown above in accordance with our enclosed Billing Policy.
