REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
RESOLUTION NO. 15-2026
TITLE: A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2026 BUDGET
TO REFLECT THE APPROVAL OF A SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET
APPROPRIATION FOR THE RE-APPROPRIATION AND RE-
ENCUMBRANCE OF 2025 FISCAL YEAR ENCUMBERED
FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,374,077.75
☐PUBLIC HEARING

QUASI-JUDICIAL ☐YES ☒NO
ISSUE:
There is one remaining open purchase order from the 2025 budget that will be carried over
to the 2026 budget. The remaining purchase order is associated with the Wadsworth
Improvement Project. The funds which were encumbered for this purchase order was
transferred to the unreserved fund balance of the CIP Fund when the purchase order was
closed. To close out this project in 2026, a supplemental budget appropriation in the amount of $5,374,077.75 is necessary to allow transfer of these funds into the Wadsworth
Improvement Project budget line item in the 2026 CIP Budget.
PRIOR ACTION:
Council approves the re-encumbrance of active purchase orders on an annual basis.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
A supplemental budget appropriation is requested in the amount of $5,374,077.75. When the purchase orders were closed on December 31, 2025, the funds encumbered for those
purchase orders were transferred to the unreserved fund balance. Therefore, there are
adequate funds in the unreserved fund balance to meet this request and there will not be a
negative effect to the unreserved fund balance.
Council Action Form – Purchase Order Carryovers
March 9, 2026
Page 2
BACKGROUND:
Per the direction of City Council in 2005, the City utilizes generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) which requires all encumbrances expire at year-end.
The City transitioned from one financial system known as American Data Group (ADG) to
OpenGov Financials in October 2025. That transition resulted in this singular purchase
order being erroneously closed after the Council had previously approved a supplemental budget appropriation September 2025. Staff became aware of the issue when a new
invoice was received in February 2026.
These funds will be transferred into 300-80865-303 Capital Improvement Fund from the
unreserved Capital Improvement Fund. RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommend approval of the supplemental budget appropriation.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Resolution No. 15-2026, a resolution amending the Fiscal Year 2026
Budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget appropriation for the re-appropriation and re-encumbrance of the 2025 fiscal year encumbered funds in the
amount of $5,374,077.75.”
Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Resolution No. 15-2026, a resolution amending the Fiscal
Year 2026 Budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget appropriation for the
re-appropriation and re-encumbrance of the 2025 fiscal year encumbered funds in the
amount of $5,374,077.75 for the following reason(s) _______________________________.”

ISSUE:
The City was recently awarded a grant by the Colorado Auto Theft Task Force through the funding authorization of the Colorado Auto Theft Prevention
Authority (CATPA) for the purchase of a new covert vehicle to be equipped with
license plate reading technology. The award provides $70,000 for the vehicle and
$29,000 for the purchase and installation of a mobile license plate reader. The
total cost of the award is $99,000 and is a fully reimbursable award provided the vehicle and equipment are purchased prior to June 30, 2026.
PRIOR ACTION:
None
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The funds for these purchases are currently available within the Public Works Fleet
Services budget. The funds would subsequently be reimbursed to the City of Wheat Ridge this fiscal year, as a stipulation of the award. There would ultimately be no fiscal
impact on the City of Wheat Ridge.
BACKGROUND:
The Wheat Ridge Police Department is a participating member of the Denver
Council Action Form – CAPTA Grant
March 9, 2026 Page 2
Metropolitan Area Auto Theft Task Force. The task force is funded through the State of
Colorado via CATPA. Officers assigned to this task force are paid, in part, through a
stipend provided by the CATPA. Officers are also provided with a vehicle and all
necessary equipment.
The task force is a multi-agency task force comprised of nine agencies from the Denver
Metropolitan Area. The work that has been done through this task force has
successfully interrupted and dismantled large scale vehicle theft rings and organized
criminal activity resulting in a 37% decrease in motor vehicle theft within Wheat Ridge
and a 35% decrease with the metro area. Vehicle theft has had a $257 million-dollar economic impact statewide. The Colorado Metropolitan Auto Theft Task Force annually
averages 476 stolen and carjacked vehicle recoveries, on average, over the last 4 years.
The purchase of a covert vehicle, using the awarded funding, allows the Wheat Ridge
Police Department to assign a dedicated vehicle to members of the agency who rotate to the task force. Currently rotating members use a Wheat Ridge Police Department
unmarked vehicle, which has made vehicle availability difficult to manage as this vehicle
is on assignment for weeks at a time. The license plate reader used by the task force is
a closed system and not associated with any system used for surveillance or readily
available to anyone outside of the system users without a judicial warrant. This camera system is used to read license plates and operates off a system that is tied to daily
downloads of stolen and carjacked vehicles. They system is purged on a regular basis
and does not capture images of the vehicle operators.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommend approval of this resolution accepting the award from the Colorado
Auto Theft Task Force.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Resolution No. 16-2026, a resolution amending the 2026 General
Fund Budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget appropriation in the amount of $99,000 to accept a grant from the Colorado Auto Theft Task Force.”
Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Resolution No. 16-2026, a resolution amending the

LEGISLATION REGARDING HOUSING SUPPORTIVE CODE
AMENDMENTS TO REMAIN ELIGIBLE FOR STATE FUNDING
OPPORTUNITIES

ISSUE:
The item under consideration is to amend Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws
to update the review process for qualifying affordable housing projects and to update
accessory dwelling unit (ADU) setback requirements for some zone districts to ensure compliance with state regulations, in order to remain eligible for state funding
opportunities.
PRIOR ACTION:
CitynCouncil was presented with the background on this ordinance at the February 2,
2026, study session. The ordinance was prepared by the Planning Division. Planning
Commission recommended approval of the ordinance by a vote of 5 to 0 on February
19, 2026.
Over the past few years, City Council has approved several zoning code amendments
related to housing and ADUs to achieve local policy goals and to comply with state law.
The ADU regulations were most recently updated in May 2025 to better align with state
requirements, including removing owner occupancy requirements and revising ADU size restrictions.
In 2022, Colorado voters enacted Proposition 123 creating a statewide affordable
housing fund, and in September 2023 Council approved a resolution committing to
Council Action Form – Housing Supportive Code Amendments
March 9, 2026 Page 2
increasing the city’s housing supply. This commitment made the city and all affordable
housing projects within Wheat Ridge eligible for Prop 123 funds.
As a follow-up to the Prop 123 commitment, Council approved a resolution of support in
October 2025 to establish an expedited review policy for qualifying affordable housing projects. The resolution allowed staff to prepare internal policies and procedures
approved by the Community Development Director and formally approved by the
Department of Local Affairs (DOLA).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of this ordinance will allow the city to remain eligible for several grant and funding opportunities.
BACKGROUND:
Over the years, the state legislature has passed a series of state housing laws and
funding opportunities to support affordable housing, strategic growth, and housing near transit. In August 2025, Governor Polis signed Executive Order (EO) 2025-011 directing
the prioritization of funding for local governments based on a local government’s
compliance with the state housing laws.
State agencies such as the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) and the Colorado Energy Office (CEO) use compliance determinations when scoring or awarding
competitive funding programs. Jurisdictions that are not compliant, or not
demonstrating good-faith progress toward compliance, risk being deprioritized or deemed ineligible for these funds. As a result, failure to update Wheat Ridge’s ADU
regulations to meet state requirements could materially affect the City’s competitiveness for state funding.
Wheat Ridge was recently awarded a $4.5 million grant from DOLA’s Transit-Oriented
Communities Infrastructure (TOCI) grant fund and has applied to the Colorado Energy
Office’s Local Accelerator Grant Program for an additional $5 million in funding to the city. These funds are critical to supporting public infrastructure investments and soft
costs that advance affordable housing, ADU fee waivers, and other development fee
waivers near transit. Moving forward with these code amendments ensures Wheat
Ridge remains eligible for state funding opportunities, demonstrates compliance with
state law and the Executive Order, and protects the city’s ability to leverage significant external resources to advance housing affordability and strategic growth objectives.
The report is divided into two sections: 1) Accessory Dwelling Units and 2)
Administrative Site Plan Review.
Part 1: Accessory Dwelling Units
The city began regulating ADUs in 2022, and those regulations are contained within
Section 26-646 and the development standards tables in Article II of Chapter 26.
Council Action Form – Housing Supportive Code Amendments
March 9, 2026 Page 3
In May 2025, Council approved three code amendments to comply with HB24-1152, specifically removing owner occupancy requirements, adjusting the allowable size of
ADUs, and allowing ADUs retroactively in Planned Developments.
In June 2025, the city submitted an ADU compliance report to DOLA, demonstrating the
city’s position that its ADU regulations were compliant with state law. On September 26,
2025, DOLA determined that the city was not fully in compliance with state law and
required one additional minor amendment to achieve full compliance. As all other provisions were in compliance with the state law and the changes were perceived to be
minor, DOLA gave the city a “Compliance-In-Progress” status and some time to make
the changes in order to achieve a compliant status.
This required amendment relates to the rear setbacks for attached ADUs in three zone districts: Residential-One A (R-1A), Agricultural-One (A-1), and Agricultural-Two (A-2).
DOLA’s interpretation of the state law is that attached and detached ADUs in each zone
district need to have the same setback, or five (5) feet, whichever is greater. These three
zone districts had differing setback requirements for attached and detached ADUs,
where the detached setback was lesser; therefore, the setback for attached ADUs needed to be decreased to five (5) feet (or a slightly modified approach for R-1A since
rear setbacks for detached are based on building heights, so attached can match).
Proposed ADU Amendment
To achieve compliance, a footnote will need to be added to the rear setback requirement in the development standards charts in R-1A, A-1, and A-2 to state:
“Portions of single detached dwellings containing an attached accessory dwelling unit
(ADU) as defined in Section 26-123 are permitted to have a five (5) foot setback.” This
will ensure that only portions of the primary structure containing the ADU can have a 5-
foot setback, not the entire house. For structures in R-1A that are over 10 feet tall, a 10-foot setback is permitted.
Staff have no concerns about the impact of this code amendment. It is a minor change
and will impact a very small number of parcels in the city; as shown in the table below,
the A-1, A-2 and R-1A zone districts comprise less than 12% of all residential land by area and by parcel count. Attached ADUs are also much less common than detached
ADUs, which are simpler to construct from a building code perspective. The result will
be that both attached and detached ADUs may be built within five feet of the rear
property line.

Part 2: Administrative Site Plan Review
To retain funding eligibility, Proposition 123 requires participating jurisdictions to
implement an expedited review (or fast track) process for qualifying affordable housing
projects. In fall 2025, Council approved a resolution of support authorizing staff to
establish an expedited review policy consistent with state requirements. Since adopting the internal policy, staff conducted a review of the zoning code and identified one minor
code amendment necessary to ensure that all site plans for qualifying affordable
projects can be reviewed within the expedited timelines.
The city currently reviews site plans under three application names: (1) Site Plans, (2)
Specific Development Plans (SDPs), and (3) Planned Building Groups (PBGs). Each is comprised of the same content (site plan, landscape plan, and architecture), but the
underlying zoning determines which application type is utilized. In all three cases, the
appropriate zoning must already be in place, such that the proposed development is
already a permitted use or “use by right.” Table 2 summarizes the differences:

Proposed Site Plan Review Amendment
State law requires that a decision (approval or denial) for a site plan review (under any
Council Action Form – Housing Supportive Code Amendments
March 9, 2026 Page 3
name) for qualifying affordable housing projects must be completed within 90 days. Allowing SDPs and PBGs to be reviewed administratively by staff ensures that once a
use is permitted by zoning, project approval focuses on objective code compliance rather than discretionary review, thereby ensuring review is completed within the 90-day
review period as required by Proposition 123. Public hearings introduce uncertainty and
significantly lengthen the overall review timelines for otherwise approvable projects.
While most affordable housing projects will be located in mixed use zones based on their locations and densities, it is possible that an SDP or PBG may be necessary. A few
code changes will be required to ensure that SDPs and PBGs can be expedited and
approved administratively for qualifying projects:
• Define “qualifying affordable housing project” to match the state statute’s
definition, which includes projects with 50% or more affordable units defined as
60% of Area Median Income (AMI) for rentals or 100% AMI for ownership units
• Revise PD regulations to exempt SDPs containing qualifying affordable housing
projects from the planning commission hearing requirement
• Revise PBG regulations to remove the requirement for planning commission
approval on sites with more than four buildings, if the PBG is a qualifying affordable housing project
• Update review process charts (§26-106) accordingly
Staff have no concerns about the impact of this code amendment. Site plan review is
already an administrative review for most projects in the city. An affordable housing
project within a PD or PBG will be rare, and the code retains public hearings for the zone change process.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend approval of the ordinance.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Council Bill No. 05-2026, an ordinance amending Chapter 26 of the
Wheat Ridge Code of Laws supporting compliance with state legislation regarding housing supportive code amendments to remain eligible for state funding opportunities,
order it published and public hearing set for March 23, 2026 in City Council Chambers,
and if adopted on second reading to take effect 15 days after final publication as required by the charter.”
Or,
“I move to postpone Council Bill No. 05-2026, an ordinance amending Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws supporting compliance with state legislation regarding
housing supportive code amendments to remain eligible for state funding opportunities” for the following reasons:

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
COUNCIL BILL NO. 06-2026
TITLE: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE SALE OF CITY-OWNED REAL
PROPERTY AND IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AUTHORIZING
EXECUTION OF A PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
☐PUBLIC HEARING ☐BIDS/MOTIONS ☐RESOLUTIONS
☒ORDINANCES FOR 1st READING ☐ORDINANCES FOR 2nd READING
QUASI-JUDICIAL ☐YES ☒NO
ISSUE:
The purpose of this action is to request City Council approval for the sale of
approximately 0.31 acres of City-owned real property located at 3805 Wadsworth
Boulevard to HCA-HealthONE LLC for a purchase price of $422,500. Approval of this ordinance will also authorize the execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA)
and associated closing documents.
PRIOR ACTION:
The City purchased the property located at 3805 Wadsworth Boulevard in 2020. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The sale will result in one-time revenue of $422,500 to the City. Per the PSA the City will
be responsible for costs related to title examination, the title premium, preparation of the deed, and one-half of the escrow agent’s fees. The buyer will cover costs for the
survey, platting, and subdivision.
The City purchased the property for a total of $1.5 million. The building at that time was
valued at $790,300 and the land was valued at $589,700 which consisted of
approximately 18,000 square feet. The City also paid a $120,000 additional settlement amount to encourage the property owner to close early on the property. Approximately
9,000 square feet of the property was carved off for Wadsworth right-of-way. An
appraisal of the remaining remanent parcel in 2021 valued the land at $425,000.
Council Action Form – Sale of 38th and Wadsworth Property
March 9, 2026 Page 2
BACKGROUND:
The subject property, originally occupied by Midas, consists of approximately 0.31 acres of land located at 3805 Wadsworth Boulevard. The City acquired this parcel in
connection with the Improve Wadsworth project. Following the advancement of that project, the City has identified this specific land as excess property that is no longer
required for municipal operations. It is important to note that the land has never been
acquired for, nor is it currently designated as, park land.
Section 16.5 of the Wheat Ridge City Charter requires the sale or disposal of any City-
owned real property (excluding designated park land) via approval through ordinance. Furthermore, such an ordinance must be approved by three-quarters of the entire City
Council to be valid.
The proposed buyer, HCA-HealthONE LLC, has entered into this agreement as part of a
broader real estate strategy in the immediate area. A critical component of this
background is that the Buyer’s obligation to finalize this purchase is contingent upon them successfully entering into acceptable purchase and sale agreements for two
adjacent properties:
7615 W. 38th St. (known as the "Wilmore Property").
3815 Wadsworth Boulevard. (known as “Risas Dental”).
The Buyer is currently in a due diligence phase, which includes a 90-day Inspection Period to conduct engineering studies, soil tests, and environmental investigations to
ensure the property is suitable for their intended use.
The City has negotiated a purchase price of $422,500, with the property being sold in its "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" condition, meaning the City makes no warranties regarding its
suitability for the Buyer's specific purposes. If the Council approves the ordinance, the Mayor, City Clerk, and City Manager will be authorized to execute the PSA and all
associated closing documents. The closing is expected to occur within 30 days
following the expiration of the inspection period and the satisfaction of all other
conditions precedent.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommend approval of Council Bill No. 06-2026 on first reading, with a public
hearing and final consideration scheduled for March 23, 2026.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Council Bill No. 06-2026, an ordinance approving the sale of City-
owned real property and in connection therewith, authorizing execution of a purchase and
sale agreement, order it published and public hearing set for March 23, 2026 in City
Council Chambers, and if adopted on second reading to take effect 15 days after final
Council Action Form – Model Traffic Code
January 13, 2024 Page 3
publication as required by the charter.”
Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Council Bill No. 06-2026, an ordinance approving the sale of City-owned real property and in connection therewith, authorizing execution of a
purchase and sale agreement for the following reason(s).”

Agreement in the event that any of the conditions set forth in this Section 5 are not satisfied, all of

6. Title Insurance.
(a) Promptly after the Agreement Date, Buyer will obtain a current commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance (“Title Commitment”) from Stewart Title Guaranty Company
(the “Title Company”). If the Title Commitment shows that Seller does not have good, record
and marketable indefeasible, fee simple title to the Property, or that there are any defects, liens or encumbrances or any other matters which are not acceptable to Buyer as shown on the Title Commitment or the “Survey” (as defined below), Buyer will notify Seller before the expiration of the Inspection Period, as it may be extended. By not later than twenty (20)days after receipt of
notice of such title objections (the “Cure Period”), Seller will have taken and completed all actions
as are necessary to (A) render the title to the Property marketable and in accordance with the foregoing requirements and/or (B) remove any such defects, liens and encumbrances, except any Monetary Liens (as hereinafter defined) which Seller will pay at Closing and provide Buyer satisfactory evidence of payment and release. If Seller fails or elects not to cure such objection
within the Cure Period to (a) eliminate any such defects, liens and encumbrances, and (b) obtain
an endorsement deleting such matters as exceptions in the Title Commitment and the title policy, or elects not to take any such action within the Cure Period, Buyer will have the option to accept the status of the title subject to such defects, liens or encumbrances and other matters and proceed with this Agreement, or give Seller written notice of termination on or before the date five (5)
business days after expiration of the Cure Period, in which event this Agreement will terminate
and Buyer and Seller will be released of all liabilities and obligations under this Agreement subject to Section 13(b); provided, however that the indemnity obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive termination. In the event Buyer timely terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6(a), the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer along with all interest earned thereon
(if any), less the Independent Consideration.
(b) As a condition to Buyer’s obligation to close, on or before the date five (5) business days after expiration of the Cure Period, Buyer and its counsel will have approved (i) all matters shown on any survey which Buyer will obtain under Section 8 hereof; (ii) the condition of title to the Property and (iii) a pro forma of the owner’s title insurance policy, to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 6. If the condition set forth in the preceding sentence is not satisfied, Buyer may
terminate its obligations under this Agreement and will be released of all further liability hereunder; provided, however, that the indemnity obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement. If Buyer does not provide such written notice on or before the date five (5) days after expiration of the Cure Period, Buyer will be deemed to have
waived such condition. If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with any provision of this
Section 6, then the Escrow Agent will deliver the Deposit, together with any interest earned thereon, if any, to Buyer, minus the Independent Consideration to be delivered to Seller, and Buyer and Seller will be released of all liability hereunder; provided, however, the indemnity obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive such termination.
6 #532307762_v2
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the basis of Buyer’s objection to Seller’s title are any mortgages, judgments, debts, security interests, liens, encumbrances, tax or assessment liens
or obligations imposed against Seller (other than those which are Permitted Exceptions or are
created or incurred as a consequence of the acts or omissions of Buyer) (which matters are collectively hereinafter referred to as “Monetary Liens”), the provisions of this Section 6 will not apply and Seller will obtain and deliver at the Closing all instruments as may be necessary to secure full discharge of all Monetary Liens and to release them of record, and will cause the Title
Company to issue the policy referred to in the Title Commitment without exception for any such
Monetary Liens. If Seller so desires, all or a part of the net proceeds payable to Seller at the Closing may be applied to payment of such Monetary Liens at the Closing.
7. Survey. Buyer will obtain a survey of the Property (the “Survey”) prepared by a Colorado-licensed surveyor to be selected by Buyer, which will delineate and monument the exact boundary
lines of the Property and will be sufficient for the Title Company to delete the general survey
exception from the Title Commitment. Buyer will notify Seller of any objections to survey matters as set forth above in Section 6(a). 8. Closing Date; Closing Costs. If Buyer has not terminated this Agreement in accordance
with Sections 4, 5 or 6 above, then delivery of Seller’s Deed and all other closing documents to be
delivered by Seller to Buyer and payment of the balance of the Purchase Price in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 hereof, will be made on a date mutually acceptable to the parties, but in no event later than the date (the “Closing Date”) that is the later of (i) thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Inspection Period, as it may be extended, or (ii) ten (10) days after all of the
conditions precedent for Buyer’s benefit set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 6 of this Agreement have
been satisfied or waived or deemed waived by Buyer. The parties will close the purchase of the Property as a mail away escrow closing coordinated by Escrow Agent. Seller will pay all costs and expenses for title examination, title premium (other than the cost of revising the survey exception or the cost of any endorsements requested by Buyer), preparation of the Deed, transfer
taxes, one-half of Escrow Agent’s fees, recording charges and other expenses incurred in recording
any documents necessary to remove any Monetary Liens, Seller’s attorney’s fees and any other costs necessary for Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Buyer will pay all costs and expenses for its own attorney’s fees, recording costs and documentary stamps on the Deed, the cost of preparing the Survey, the costs of platting and subdivision of the Property, the costs of
amending the survey exception or obtaining endorsements to the title policy, one-half of Escrow
Agent’s fees and any other costs necessary for Buyer to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
9. Possession. Exclusive possession of the Property will be given to Buyer on the Closing Date.
10. Real Estate Taxes. Prior to the Closing, Seller will pay all real estate taxes which became
a lien prior to the calendar year of the Closing and all assessments for public improvements, general and special. The real property taxes and assessments on the Property for the calendar year of the Closing will be prorated (based on a 365-day year) as of the date of Closing in accordance with the custom of the County in which the Land is located, and such proration shall be a final
settlement. If the taxes to be prorated cannot be determined, an adjustment for prorated real estate
taxes will be made by agreement of the parties based on the principle of proration stated in the
7 #532307762_v2
preceding sentence. If the Property has been assessed for ad valorem real estate tax purposes at such rates (by exemption or otherwise) as would result in additional taxes being due in connection
with the change in ownership of the Property or a subsequent change in the use of the Property,
Buyer agrees to pay and be responsible for all such taxes by their due date. The provisions of this paragraph will survive the Closing. 11. Access to Property and Seller’s Cooperation. At all times prior to the Closing, Buyer
will have the right to enter upon the Property for the purposes of conducting soil tests,
environmental and engineering studies and investigations, surveys, planning and other testing and exploration work necessary or appropriate to formulate plans for Buyer’s intended use. Buyer shall indemnify and hold the Seller harmless for any liability and damage to persons or property arising out of Buyer’s exercise of the rights granted by this Section 11.
12. Notices. Any notice or other writing required or permitted to be given to a party under this
Agreement will be given in writing and will be (i) delivered by hand or (ii) delivered through the United States mail, postage prepaid, certified, return receipt requested, or (iii) delivered through or by UPS, Federal Express, or other expedient mail or package service, addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth below.

(a) Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement by Buyer and Seller to the other
party, this Agreement will constitute a binding contract between Seller and Buyer and will be

Notwithstanding any provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer may at any time prior to Closing assign, in whole or in part, its rights under this Agreement to a third party assignee affiliated with Buyer, with Seller’s consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withhold,
conditioned or delay; provided Buyer will not be released from liabilities arising under this
Agreement. Seller may assign its rights to receive the proceeds of sale, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to a third party; but Seller will not convey any interest in the Property nor will Seller delegate any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement regarding the Property without Buyer’s written consent only so long as this Agreement is still an active agreement.

(c) Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum or other summary of this Agreement
will be placed of public record under any circumstances. (d) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original, but all of which when taken together will constitute one and the
same instrument.

TITLE: A MOTION AWARDING A CONTRACT TO OLSSON IN THE
AMOUNT OF $1,652,462 FOR DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE 2J
FUND SIDEWALK GAP PROJECT
☐PUBLIC HEARING
☒BIDS/MOTIONS
☐RESOLUTIONS
☐ORDINANCES FOR 1st READING ☐ORDINANCES FOR 2nd READING
QUASI-JUDICIAL ☐YES ☒NO
ISSUE:
On February 23, 2026, staff presented city council with a potential list of sidewalk gap
projects to be designed and funded by the 2J Next Chapter Bond Fund. The list of projects to be completed in this initial phase has been modified and additional work
added following city council feedback.
The purpose of this contract is to begin design on seven street segments and two
HAWK signals identified on the February 23rd study session.
PRIOR ACTION:
In November 2023, Wheat Ridge voters approved the extension of a temporary ½-cent
sales and use tax, known as the 2J Next Chapter Bond Fund, to be used for the following capital infrastructure projects:
• Sidewalk, bike lane and street improvements on primary street corridors such as
32nd Avenue, 38th Avenue, 44th Avenue, and Youngfield Street;
• Filling sidewalk gaps and other sidewalk repair and replacement with an
emphasis on major pedestrian corridors and routes to schools; and
• Drainage and floodplain infrastructure improvements at priority locations in the
city.
After voter approval, City Council discussed the 2J Bond and project list several times:
• In April 2024, City Council reviewed a comprehensive list of potential projects.
The total cost of $121M exceeded the $75M 2J Bond capacity.
Council Action Form –2J Fund Sidewalk Gap Project March 9, 2026
Page 2
• In October 2024, City Council approved the issuance of bonds; this initial tranche yielded $33M in project funds.
• In May 2025, a more refined project list was presented to Council balancing
corridor upgrades, pavement maintenance, sidewalk and bikeway gap closures, and stormwater/drainage work.
• In October 2025, City Council reviewed and then approved the 2026 budget, which included 2J priorities for the year and a range of project types—from quick wins to large corridor designs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding is available in the 2J Bond Fund account #660-70750-103.
BACKGROUND:
The 2J Next Chapter Bond Fund was enabled by voter approval of the extended ½-cent
sales and use tax in November 2023, reflecting broad community support for proactive
investment in transportation and infrastructure improvements. The $75 million bond
fund prioritizes a mix of large corridor projects, critical drainage improvements, and sidewalk repair and gap closure projects.
Closing gaps in the existing sidewalk network requires engineering and planning due to
utility coordination, right-of-way (ROW) considerations, and the need to meet ADA
accessibility standards (minimum 5-foot sidewalks). These investments improve
neighborhood connectivity and pedestrian safety across existing residential areas and
at key locations near parks and schools.
Given the existing conditions of the city’s sidewalk network and limited bond funds,
sidewalk prioritization has been informed by multiple past planning efforts. Key criteria include:
• proximity to parks and schools,
• context of the surrounding sidewalk network,
• limited utility conflicts and ROW acquisition needs, and
• opportunities to leverage maintenance or adjacent capital work. On August 15, 2025, the City entered into an agreement with Olsson, an engineering
consultant, to perform preliminary survey and design work for the sidewalk gap project.
Based on ease of construction, utility relocation requirements, ROW acquisition, available budget, distribution across the city, and city council input, Olsson recommends
the seven segments and two HAWK signals described in the table below.
Council Action Form –2J Fund Sidewalk Gap Project March 9, 2026
Page 3
Staff estimates two or three of these projects can be completed in 2026 with the
remaining projects constructed in 2027.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommend awarding a contract to Olsson in the amount of $1,652,462 for the 2J
Fund Sidewalk Gap Project.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to award a contract to Olsson in the amount of $1,652,462 for the 2J Fund
Sidewalk Gap Project.”
Or,
“I move to deny award of a contract to Olsson in the amount of $1,652,462 for the 2J
Fund Sidewalk Gap Project for the following reason(s).”

Sidewalk Gaps
AWARDEE: Olsson, Inc. - $1,652,462
In September 2024, the City awarded Olsson, Inc. the Wadsworth Path Project
which included extensive work related to existing sidewalk gaps including but
not limited to: topographic and boundary surveys, geotechnical analysis,
drainage investigation, and construction documentation. In addition to the
Wadsworth Path, Olsson Inc. was also awarded an on-call engineering contract
in August 2025. Based on the depth of experience Olsson, Inc. has gained
through their involvement in the Wadsworth Path Project, they are uniquely
suited to complete the design of six (6) sidewalk gaps sections and two (2)
HAWK signals throughout the City. We request approval to award this project
to Olsson, Inc. as a formal solicitation would cause significant delays in this
critical project and would result in increased costs to the City.

City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
General Project Description & Scope
This scope and fee proposal serves as an extension of the City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps –
Package 1 (25-029B) project, which included conceptual design for thirteen sidewalk gaps and
two HAWK signals as shown in Appendix A. This project, Package 1, Final Design 1, will include
construction documents for seven (7) sidewalk gap segments that were identified as priorities
from Package 1 (25-029B) or newly added by the City. This project will also include the final
design of two (2) High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk (HAWK) signals, with their specific locations
to be determined pending direction from the City.
Project 4: Parfet St, 35th Ave to 3550 Parfet St
Project 7: Miller St, 45th Ave to 47th Pl
Project 8: 26th Ave, Oak St to Paramount Pkwy
Project 11: Dover St, 38th Ave to 44th Ave
Project 12: Pierce St, 29th Ave to 44th Ave
Project 15: Harlan St, 32nd Ave to 35th Ave
Project 16: I70 Frontage Rd S, Holland St to Garrison St
Project X: HAWK Signal #1
Project Y: HAWK Signal #2
To accelerate construction and optimize scheduling, the projects will be divided into five
submittals, each assumed to represent a separate construction package to be bid and
constructed independently. Each project will still be provided as an individual, standalone plan
set. The submittals will be delivered in the following sequence:
Final 1a: Project 4, 7, and 16
Final 1b: Project 8 and 15
Final 1c: Project 11
Final 1d: Project 12
Final 1e: Project X and Y
This phased approach is intended to expedite construction activities and meet the City’s
priorities. Additional details regarding milestones and sequencing are provided in the attached
schedule, Appendix C. The HAWK signals schedule is not included in the overall project
schedule as its locations and funding sources are still undetermined. Once these are confirmed,
Olsson will update the overall schedule.
Design of the sidewalk gaps will be based on the conceptual designs and associated City
comments produced in Package 1 (25-029B). It is anticipated that there will be no substantive
changes to the scope or design following the concept review, such as changes in typical sections.
The HAWK signals are assumed to follow a scope similar to Projects 6 and 13 from Package 1
(25-029B). Should the final scope differ materially from these assumptions, change orders may
be required.
City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
Task 100 – Program Management
Program management efforts will include bi-weekly meetings, the preparation of monthly invoices
and progress reports, and general coordination. Progress reports will detail work activities
completed over the prior month, upcoming work activities, and status of budget and schedule. In
addition to regular communication via phone and email, regular bi-weekly meetings will take place
for the duration of the project. Bi-weekly meetings will cover completed tasks, upcoming activities,
milestones, and critical path items. It is assumed all meetings will be conducted virtually via
Microsoft Teams unless specified otherwise.
Assumptions/Exclusions
Project design schedule is assumed to be approximately twelve (12) months.
Kick-Off Meeting: 1-hour virtual (4 Olsson Attendees)
Bi-Weekly Coordination Meetings: 30-minute virtual meetings (2 Olsson
Attendees)
Final Review Meeting: 2-hour virtual meeting (2 Olsson Attendees) (1 for each
submittal, 5 total)
Public engagement or coordination is excluded.
Deliverables
Monthly invoices and accompanying progress reports (assumed 27 based on
design, construction, and property acquisition schedule).
Meeting agendas and minutes (assumed 23 based on design schedule).
Task 104, 107, 108, 112, 115, 116, 10X, and 10Y
Task 104 - Project 4: Parfet St, 35th Ave to 3550 Parfet St

Task 10X - Project X: HAWK Signal #1
Task 10Y - Project Y: HAWK Signal #2
Formal task and project numbers will be assigned to 10X and 10Y following determination
of HAWK locations.
Topographic Survey and Right of Way
Olsson will produce topographic and boundary survey for all nine (9) projects as shown in
Appendix B. Survey limits are based on the concept designs from Package 1 (25-029B). If City
comments from the conceptual review result in significant changes to these limits, adjustments to
the fee may be required.
City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
Critical information is right of way widths and easements, existing conditions and evidence of
underground utility lines.
Olsson will research each project location for existing land records and existing control data.
Additionally, Olsson will contact Colorado811 to initiate a utility engineering design ticket which
will provide data for underground utility lines.
During field data collection, Olsson’s field crew will analyze each day’s planned work activities for
safety concerns. We will prepare a daily Job Safety Analysis form which documents any potential
unsafe working conditions and the steps taken to mitigate them.
Olsson will set horizontal and vertical control throughout each project site. A static Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) control network will be established around the exterior of
each project and used as the Primary Control Network. The control network will be verified to
National Geodetic Survey (NGS) control monuments. Secondary control will be based on the
Primary Control Network and will be densified throughout the interior of the project area. Digital
level runs will be performed to ensure accurate vertical data between each control point. The
control network will be based horizontally on the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83),
projected to the Colorado State Plane Coordinate System, Central Zone and vertically on the
North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The Primary and Secondary Control will be
documented within a Land Survey Control Diagram for each project location.
Once the control is established, Olsson will retrace and recreate the corridor right of way limits.
Existing land records will be referenced to find and locate controlling land lines within the corridor.
Field located monuments will be checked against existing deeds and subdivisions and the right
of way limits will be established. Olsson will search for sufficient field monumentation to establish
right of way and boundary lines at each of the project locations.
While the right of way retracement is ongoing, Olsson will begin the topographic survey of the
corridor. Olsson will map improvements from the center to roughly ten feet beyond the apparent
right of way. Olsson survey crews will meticulously map the existing conditions so the City will be
aware of all possible impacts on the design. Olsson will collect ground shots at intervals of no
more than 25 feet and will include sufficient shots at tie-in points, centerlines, driveways, drainage
features, surface utilities, sidewalks, and any other pertinent existing features. While Olsson maps
the corridor, any underground utilities that were designated through the Colorado811 ticket will
be mapped, and the designated lines will be included in the final deliverables.
When the right of way retracement and topographic survey is completed, Olsson’s professional
surveyors will perform a field walk through to verify the data. Revisions will be performed, and
final deliverables will be prepared.
See Task 201 for additional scope related to temporary construction easement acquisition.
City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
Assumptions/Exclusions
Olsson recommends that the City work within the National Spatial Reference System
to align with future iterations of the national datum. If the City requires the survey be
tied to the City’s Datum, notification and control must be provided before the work is
started.
The City will provide information for right of way access permits and permission to
enter private land letters if determined to be necessary.
Olsson will not be responsible for verifying data provided by Colorado811. The
service does not guarantee a complete utility data set and Olsson will provide the
data as is.
Olsson will recreate right of way lines for each project location. Individual lot lines will
only be shown where proposed easements are required.
Procurement and review of title commitments are excluded.
Deliverables

Land Survey Control Diagram (pdf) (1 per project, 9 total)
Drainage Modeling and Analysis
The installation of sidewalks with curb and gutter in areas currently lacking these features will
require drainage modifications and improvements to maintain existing flow patterns and minimize
ponding. Improvements may include constructing or reconstructing inlets, manholes, swales, and
culverts. Olsson will perform a comprehensive analysis of existing and proposed hydrology and
proposed hydraulics for the seven (7) sidewalk gap segments as outlined below. This analysis
will not be performed for the two HAWK signals, as their installation is not expected to have a
material effect on existing hydrologic or hydraulic conditions.
Olsson will utilize available GIS data and survey information to analyze both existing and
proposed hydrology using the Rational Method. The peak flows will be calculated at key design
points, such as inlets and swales.
Following the hydrologic analysis, Olsson will perform hydraulic calculations to inform proposed
improvements. Inlet sizing will be performed using Mile High Flood District’s UD-Inlet tool,
culverts will be sized with CulvertMaster, and swales will be designed using FlowMaster.
Upon completion, a Final Drainage Memorandum will be prepared for each project location,
documenting site conditions, hydrology, and hydraulic design details.
Assumptions/Exclusions
Hydraulic modeling of the existing storm system is excluded.
Water quality improvements are not anticipated and are therefore excluded.
Detention improvements are not anticipated and are therefore excluded.
Project X and Y are excluded.
Storm trunkline design is excluded for all project.
City comments will be limited to one (1) round of review and revision.

Final Construction Documents
City comments from the Package 1 (25-029B) concept review will be addressed with resolutions
documented in a Comment Resolution Form (CRF) for each project location. Design will be
progressed to a 100% construction submittal for City review. Each sidewalk gap segment and
HAWK signal will be contained in a standalone plan set.
City of Wheat Ridge design standards and details will be utilized with supplementation from
Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD), and Jefferson County. Design will utilize AutoDesk Civil3D 2026 software. Plan sheets
will be 11x17 with 40 scale plan views or 20 scale for details.

Due to anticipated level of impacts and disturbance, Olsson will combine initial, interim, and final
phases into a single Erosion Control plan for each project. Best management practices (BMPs)
will adhere to Mile High Flood District (MHFD) details.
City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
A Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) report will be prepared for projects that exceed 0.5
acres of disturbances. Reports will be developed using the City of Wheat Ridge SWMP Check
List and Guidance table. It is anticipated that Project 4, X, and Y will be less than 0.5 acres and
therefore will not require a SWMP.
Project 12 will require additional pedestrian push buttons at the signalized intersections of 32nd
Avenue, 38th Avenue, and 41st Avenue along Pierce Street to serve the reconfigured curb ramps.
It is anticipated that improvements will utilize existing infrastructure such as pull boxes, conduits,
and controller, and that this equipment is adequate to manage additional push buttons. Push
button assemblies will be per CDOT S Standards (latest edition) and adhere to CDOT
Specifications (latest edition). Design to wire and integrate the buttons to the controllers is
excluded.
Projects X and Y will include the design of HAWK signal installations and the associated curb
ramps at two crossing locations, which are pending direction from the City. Anticipated
improvements include the HAWK signals, pedestrian luminaires mounted on the signal poles,
pedestrian push buttons, and curb ramps, along with supporting infrastructure such as new pull
boxes, conduits, meters, controllers, and cabinets.
The signal design package will include basic timing parameters, including phasing and clearance
interval calculations necessary for signal activation. The contractor or signal equipment supplier
will be responsible for performing the signal turn-on and configuring any additional controller
settings.
Design measures will be taken to minimize utility conflicts; however, it is anticipated that a small
amount of both private and non-private utilities will be impacted by sidewalk improvements. These
impacts may include, but are not limited to, adjustments and relocations of water meters, water
valve boxes, pull boxes, and pedestals. Olsson will be responsible for coordinating with affected
utility owners and incorporating necessary modifications into the design plans. Project X and Y
will include coordination with the appropriate utility provider to establish power services for the
new signal installations. The scope anticipates twenty-three (23) meetings with utility owners and
the preparation of twenty-three (23) utility exhibits to facilitate coordination and approvals across
all projects.
The 100% construction documents will also include an Engineer’s Opinion of Probable Cost
(OPC) and specifications. The OPC will include estimated costs for construction of improvements,
easement acquisition, utility relocations, and construction engineering. Olsson will provide
technical specifications for each project that are based on CDOT Standard Specifications (latest
edition). It is assumed that the City will provide any necessary front-end specifications.
The 100% construction documents will be submitted to the City for review. Upon receiving City
comments, Olsson will revise the plans and issue final construction documents. All City comments
will be documented in a Comment Response Form (CRF) for each project for tracking purposes.
If needed, a comment resolution meeting will be scheduled prior to finalizing construction
documents. At the conclusion of the bidding process, addenda will be incorporated into the
construction documents and issued for construction versions will be signed and sealed by a
Colorado licensed professional engineer.

Task 201 – Temporary Construction Easement Acquisition
Based on GIS parcel data and conceptual designs, it is anticipated that temporary construction
easements (TCE) will be required to complete the proposed work. Olsson has included an
allowance for the preparation of one hundred and fifteen (115) legal descriptions to facilitate
acquisition across all projects, except for Project X and Y.
Olsson will collaborate with HC Peck to facilitate all necessary activities for securing up to 115
TCEs. The following activities will be performed in compliance with applicable law, policies,
guidelines and procedure:
Verify parcel ownership using Assessor data and vesting deeds.
Research project land values for payment schedules.
Coordinate with teams, landowners, and legal counsel.
Prepare and send required notices, offer letters, and property documents.
Negotiate acquisitions at approved market value and finalize agreements.
Order funds and complete transactions.
Further information on the property acquisition scope and related fees is available in Appendix E.
Assumptions/Exclusions
The quantity and placement of TCEs were initially determined using GIS parcel data.
If the total exceeds 115 TCEs, Olsson will work closely with the City to review and
adjust the applicable fees as necessary.
The City will provide guidance on offers, counteroffers, and final settlement
decisions.

City of Wheat Ridge Sidewalk Gaps – Package 1, Final Design 1
Task 202 – Subsurface Utility Engineering (QL-D through QL-A)
It is anticipated that the boring on Project X and Y for the HAWK signal installations will trigger the
need to perform Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) per Colorado Revised Statutes, Title 9,
Article 1.5 (CRS 9-1.5). Olsson has partnered with T2 Utility Engineers (T2UE) to provide SUE
services for the project. The scope of the SUE investigation includes ASCE 38-22 Quality Level
D through Quality Level A. Clearance test holes are anticipated at both signal caisson locations.
In addition to a base file depicting the location of existing utilities, T2UE will provide SUE plans
signed and sealed by a Colorado registered Professional Engineer. Further information on the
SUE scope and related fees is available in Appendix F.
An additional SUE contingency has been included for the sidewalk gap segments, as isolated
excavation footprints along these projects may trigger additional SUE areas per Colorado
Revised Statutes, Title 9, Article 1.5 (CRS 9-1.5). Excavation footprints will be evaluated
during design to determine whether and where SUE mapping is required. The additional
SUE is intended as a contingency, and it is anticipated that the overall SUE effort may be
limited or not required. Olsson shall obtain written authorization from the City prior to initiating
any contingency-related work.

PROJECT APPROACH
T2 UES, Inc.’s general workflow to our approach is outlined below and includes weekly updates for the entire project team:
1. Perform records research.
2. Perform a geophysical investigation (field designating).
3. Perform a survey of utility appurtenances and markings placed by our designators.
4. Complete utility depictions as outlined in the ASCE/UESI/CI 38-22 standard.
5. QA/QC of our investigation’s findings based on existing records and our fieldwork.
6. Review the investigation’s findings with the design team and project stakeholders.
7. Coordinate and perform QLA test holes.
8. Provide documentation of the completed utility investigation findings – signed and sealed by a licensed engineer.
ASCE/UESI/CI 38-22 provides a nationally recognized, standard guideline for the collection and depiction of existing
subsurface utility data. The quality level provides a professional opinion of the quality and reliability of the utility information.
The four quality levels are as follows:
• Quality Level D (QLD): Utility Quality Level D (QLD) information is determined primarily from the review and documentation of
existing second-party information, such as utility records, historical project records, permits, verbal accounts, the existence of
service, visual indicators, and/or One-Call markings, put into context with any other information the SUE Professional has in their
possession during a Utility Investigation.
• Quality Level C (QLC): Utility Quality Level C (QLC) information is determined by correlating underground Utility Segments from
existing second-party information to observable and measurable visible Utility Features. QLC does not refer to the Utility Feature
or portion of the Utility Segment that is visible. It refers to the unobservable portion of the Utility Feature or Utility Segment that
connects to visible, typically aboveground or within an accessible vault, surveyed Utility Features.
• Quality Level B (QLB): A Utility Quality Level B (QLB) may be assigned to a Utility Segment after the application of appropriate
surface geophysical methods to identify the existence and approximate horizontal position of utilities (a Utility’s “Designation”),
followed by survey and documentation, review of available field and office data, and a final determination of the position for the
Utility Segment or Utility Feature on the Deliverables. All aforementioned tasks are performed under the direct responsible charge
of the SUE Professional. The largest source of potential error is usually the interpretation of the geophysical findings and results.
• Quality Level A (QLA): Quality Level A (QLA) builds on QLB information by confirming the existence, exact locations, and other
attributes of subsurface utility through the exposure of the utility using safe excavating practices. QLA data are determined by
physically exposing an unobservable utility feature or utility segment (essentially making it observable) and documenting its spatial
extent and characteristics with a high degree of accuracy. Conventional accuracies shall be 0.1ft (30mm) vertical and 0.2ft (60
mm) horizontal for the measurements of the outside limits of the utility features or utility segment that is exposed.

SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of services identified below provides for a QLD, QLC, QLB, and QLA investigation.
T2 UES, Inc. shall conduct, document, stamp, and seal a Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) investigation of the project
area to document existing utilities within the project limits. As part of the SUE investigation for this project, T2 UES, Inc. will
work on the following tasks:
UTILITY RECORDS RESEARCH
• Submit a Subsurface Utility Engineering ticket to Colorado 811 to aid in the identification of Utility Owners that may have facilities
on, or be affected by, the project.
• Request, collect and review applicable utility facility records available through Utility Owner(s), such as one-call notification, service
maps, as-built drawings, standard drawings, service plats, construction plans from prior projects, local government or Agency
permit exhibit drawings, and oral histories gained through interviews with Utility Owner officials and authorities.
• Compile a list of all utility companies contacted for information. Note information received with contact information for each
response and note non-response if applicable.
FIELD UTILITY INVESTIGATION (UTILITY DESIGNATION)
• Utilize appropriate surface geophysical techniques to determine the approximate horizontal position of utilities within the project
area. Once designated (horizontally positioned), verified utilities are marked using appropriate pink paint and flagging which is the
standard industry color for temporary survey markings. Utilities type or ownership that cannot be confirmed by the field investigation
will be termed “unknown”. T2 UES, Inc. will utilize a suite of equipment including pipe and cable locators (PCL), Ground Penetrating
Radar (GPR), magnetometers, and detectable sondes.
• If accessible, structures connected to gravity-fed systems will be opened, and inverts will be measured. Invert information and,
where accessible, pipe size/material for the sewers will be collected at manholes/catch-basins from the surface and shown on the
drawings accordingly. The alignment of the sewer pipes will be shown on the drawing based on a combination of record information
received, results of the invert investigation, surveyed manholes/catch-basins, and professional judgment. If chambers are full of
water or confined space entry is required, extra costs will be incurred and will be discussed with the Client in advance.
• T2 UES, Inc. will survey the utility designation marks and utility appurtenances referenced to the project survey controls. The
results of this utility investigation and any survey work performed in conjunction with the investigation will be tied to the project
datum as specified by the client and existing survey grade control points provided to T2 UES, Inc. for their use if available. In the
absence of direction from the client or a control diagram, T2 UES, Inc. will choose a Local Coordinate System based on either local
or NAVD88 vertical datum.
QA/QC AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
• Review the field investigation documents and records collected as a part of records research. Use professional judgment to assign
quality levels and horizontal positions to subsurface utilities.
• Consolidate and draft the collected field information in an AutoCAD Civil 3D deliverable.
• A SUE Report is not included. The SUE report can be completed in accordance with the ASCE/UESI/CI 38-22 standard. The SUE
report complements the utility drawings, assists the end user in better understanding the utility landscape and risks, and provides
any meta-data collected by T2 UES, Inc. during the course of the SUE investigation. The SUE report is signed and sealed by a
Professional Engineer.

QLB/C/D UTILITY INVESTIGATION ASSUMPTIONS, EXCLUSIONS, AND STIPULATIONS
• T2 UES, Inc. will do everything within our control to access all areas of this project; however, some areas may be inaccessible due
to unsuitable terrain, limited access, weather conditions, truck limitations, human limitations, safety concerns, etc., and may not be
accessible. If any of these instances occur, they will be discussed with the Client and noted accordingly.
• Right-of-entry to private property or access to secured areas is to be coordinated and granted to T2 UES, Inc. by the Client and/or
Owner.
• T2 UES, Inc. cannot guarantee we will find all unknown, abandoned, retired, or inactive utilities.
• Due to material makeup, design, and as-built installation of irrigation systems, T2 UES, Inc. cannot guarantee we will discover and
depict all existing irrigation systems. However, undocumented irrigation systems may be present in the project area that were not
discoverable by the scoped effort and are therefore not depicted. T2 UES, Inc. will not be responsible for damage to documented
or undocumented irrigation systems during construction.
• Individual utility services to homes and buildings will include water, electricity, and natural gas. Telephone, CATV, and Fiber Optic
services are excluded.
• Underground storage tanks (USTs), septic fields, traffic loop systems, thrust blocks, cathodic protection systems, drain tiles,
irrigation channels, irrigation gates, irrigation valves, irrigation piping, irrigation headwalls, irrigation boxes, and landscape irrigation
(both public & private) are excluded.
• Invert information and, where accessible, pipe size/material for the sewers will be collected at manholes/catch-basins from the
surface and shown on the drawings accordingly. The alignment of the sewer pipes will be shown on the drawing based on a
combination of record information received, results of the invert investigation, surveyed manholes/catch-basins, and professional
judgment. If chambers are full of water or confined space entry is required, extra costs will be incurred and will be discussed with
the Client in advance. Confined space entry is excluded.
• Utility vault dimensions and/or diagrams are excluded but can be performed at an additional out-of-scope cost to the Client.
• Butterfly diagrams or 3D modeling (with pipe networks) are excluded. Diagrams of the conduits within vaults are excluded but can
be performed at an additional out-of-scope cost to the Client.
• Overhead utility lines will be shown as a singular line running pole to pole with the number of lines called out based on ownership.
We will attempt to identify both ownership & connections on the poles and incorporate this information into the plans.
• Pole diagrams, images, and/or spreadsheets (or some combination thereof) as best suits this project and existing site conditions
are excluded but can be performed at an additional out-of-scope cost to the Client.
• The removal of Colorado 811 paint marks or designation marks is excluded.
• Utility coordination and/or utility coordination deliverables are excluded from this scope but can be performed at an additional out-
of-scope cost to the Client.
• T2 UES, Inc. will provide up to (1) day of traffic protection in accordance with local municipality specifications and permit
requirements. This item will be subcontracted to a local traffic control company. The fee provided for this service is estimated based

• The degree of success of a ground-penetrating radar (GPR) investigation is based entirely on the composition of the soils and the
depth and scale of subsurface targets. Electrically less-conductive soils, such as quartz sands, typically allow for the detection of
some utilities and/or their trenches at depths greater than 10 feet. Electrically conductive soils, such as clay, moist silt, or saline
soils, typically preclude the investigation of targets deeper than three to six feet. Due to the unknown receptiveness of specific site
soils to the passage of radar energy, conclusive results cannot be guaranteed from GPR.
• Utility Report signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer is not included.

QLA INVESTIGATION
T2 UES, Inc. will perform up to (2) Quality Level A clearing test holes to determine the location, size, depth, and material of
existing utilities. T2 UES, Inc. shall use minimally intrusive excavation techniques, which ensure the safety of the excavation
and the integrity of the utility line to be documented. Other lines which may be encountered during the excavation will be
noted. The excavation shall be conducted by means of air or hydro–assisted vacuum excavation equipment manufactured
specifically for this purpose. To help minimize the number of test holes required, T2 UES, Inc. will lay out the holes and re-
designate the associated utility prior to excavation. Test Hole Data Reports will be signed and sealed by a professional
engineer and shall include project-specific coordinates, depth of the utility from the existing ground, material, and size of the
utility found.

SUPPLEMENTAL TASKS (NOT INCLUDED WITHIN THIS SCOPE OF WORK)
To achieve the Client’s project goals, the following tasks can be included as supplemental tasks for an additional fee:
PERFORM ADVANCED GEOPHYSICS INVESTIGATION
T2 UES, Inc. uses Stream EM and Stream C which are Multi-Channel Ground Penetrating Radar (MCGPR) solutions dedicated to utility
locating and mapping. These units employ 40 separate channels with double polarized antennas, enabling the system to gather data
simultaneously for both longitudinal and transversal purposes. The high number of antennas increases the quality of the data and allows
us to detect utilities even in sub-optimal soil conditions. The Stream EM and Stream C are both equipped with a GPS unit that enables the
data set to be georeferenced to the project survey datum easily. The system is generally towed behind a vehicle at speeds up to 12 MPH
which permits the gathering of GPR data with minimal traffic control thereby reducing the impact on local traffic.
CCTV
T2 UES, Inc. can perform video inspection within drainage facilities, as directed by the Client. Specifically, the consultant ensures the
interior of the inspected pipe is visible by means of appropriate illumination and camera equipment; and records all video and images
captured during the inspection.
UTILITY COORDINATION
T2 UES, Inc.’s utility coordination team can coordinate with the Client, Owner, and all other affected municipalities throughout the design
process. Utility coordination tasks could include working with the design team as well as coordination with all utilities within the project
limits. Additional services include project management, and utility coordination documents including specifications and clearance letters.
ESTIMATED FEES
Please see the attached sheets for the full cost breakdown. T2 UES, Inc. will not exceed the estimated fee without prior
authorization from the Client. An invoice will be prepared monthly with one final invoice upon completion for the actual work
performed, up to the estimated budget amount.
