B. DESIGN PHASE recommendations. If called for by the scope of the assignment, prepare a preliminary engineering report. 1. Establish the scope, and advise the Owner, of any soil and foundation investigations or any special surveys or special testing which, in the opinioh of the Engineer, may be required for the proper execution of the Project; and arrange with the Owner for the conduct of such investigations and tests. (The performance of these investigations and tests is not a part of the Engineer's basic services, and compensation therefore is not included in the Basic Charge; it may be performed by the Engineer, by agreement with the Owner, in which case compensation shall be determined by the applicable portions of Section VI A). 2. Furnish to the Owner, where required by the circumstances of the assignment, the engineering data necessary for applications for routine permits by local, state, and federal authorities (as distinguished from detailed applications and supporting documents for government grants -in- aid, state loan programs, planning advances or to meet the requirements of the special programs of the federal government). 3. Perform field surveys to collect information which in the opinion of the Engineer, is required in the design of the Project. Construction staking for the Construction Improvement is not included in the Basic Charge. 4. Prepare detailed specifications and contract drawings, in pencil on paper, for construction authorized by the Owner. These designs shall in all respects combine the application of sound engineering principles with a high degree of economy, and shall be submitted to the applicable state and federal agencies for approval. 5. Prepare detailed cost estimates and proposals of authorized construction, which shall include summaries of bid items and quantities which will be based, wherever practical, on the unit price system of bidding. The Engineer shall not be required to guarantee the accuracy of these estimates. 6. Furnish the Owner all necessary copies of approved plans, specifications, notices to bidders, and proposals.

Assist the Owner in the opening and tabulating of bids for construction of the Project, and recommend to the Owner as to the proper action on all proposals received. 3. Assist in the preparation of formal Contract Documents for the contracts. 4. Make periodic visits to the site (as distinguished from the continuous services of a resident Project Representative described in Subparagraph 6 below) to observe the progress and quality of the executed work and to 3 determine in general if the work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents. In performing this service, the Engineer will not be required to make exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the work or material; he will not be responsible for the techniques and sequences of construction or the safety precautions incident thereto, and he will not be responsible or liable in any degree for the contractors' failure to perform the construction work in accordance with the Contract Documents. During visits to the construction site, and on the basis of the Engineer's on -site observations as an experienced and qualified design professional, he will keep the Owner informed of the extent of the progress of the work, and advise the Owner of material and substantial defects and deficiencies in the work of contractors which are discovered by the Engineer or otherwise brought to the Engineer's attention in the course of construction, and may, on behalf of the Owner, exercise whatever rights the Owner may have to disapprove work and materials as failing to conform to the Contract Documents. 5. Consult and advise with the Owner; issue all instructions to the contractor requested by the Owner; and prepare routine change orders as required. 6. If specifically authorized by the Owner in writing, furnish the services of resident Project Representatives, and other field personnel for continuous on- the -site observation of construction and for the performance of required construction layout surveys. (This service is not a part of the Engineer's basic services, and compensation therefore is not included in the Basic Charge; if provided, compensation shall be determined under Section VI A.) The authority and duties of such Resident Project Representatives are limited to examining the material furnished and observing the work done, and to reporting their findings to the Engineer. The Engineer will use the usual degree of care and prudent judgment in the selection of competent Project Representatives, and the Engineer will use diligence to see that the Project Representatives are on the job to perform their required duties. It is agreed, however, that the Engineer does not underwrite, guarantee, or insure the work done by the contractors, and since it is the contractors' responsibility to perform the work in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Engineer is not responsible or liable for the contractors' failure to do so, and, so long as Engineer has exercised the usual degree of care and prudent judgment in selecting Project Representatives and has used diligence to see that they are on the job to perform the work, failure by any Project Representatives or other personnel engaged in on- the -site observation to discover defects or deficiencies in the work of the contractors shall never relieve the contractors of liability therefore or subject the Engineer to any liability for any such defect or deficiencies. 4 7. Review samples, catalog data, schedules, shop drawings, laboratory, shop and mill tests of materials and equipment and other data which the contractor is required to submit, only for conformance with the design concept of the Project and compliance with the information given by the Contract Documents; and assemble written guarantees which are required by the Contract Documents. 8. Review monthly and final estimates for payments to contractors, and furnish to the Owner any necessary certifications as to payments to contractors and suppliers in a form acceptable to the City. 9. Conduct, in company with the Owner, a final inspection of the Project for conformance with the design concept of the Project and compliance with the Contract Documents, and approve in writing final payment to the contractors. 10. Revise contract drawings, with the assistance of the resident Project Representatives, or the Owners representative, to provide record drawings of the completed Project. Furnish one set of reproducible drawings and one set of prints of there revised drawings to the Owner. SECTION III AUTHORIZATION OF SERVICES No professional services of any nature shall be undertaken by the Engineer under this Agreement until he has received written authorization from the Owner. SECTION IV PERIOD OF SERVICE This Agreement shall be effective upon execution by the Owner and the Engineer, and shall remain in force until terminated under the provisions hereinafter provided in Section X. SECTION V COORDINATION WITH THE OWNER The Engineer shall hold periodic conferences with the Owner, or its representatives, to the end that the Project, as perfected, shall have full benefit of the Owner's experience and knowledge of existing needs and facilities, and be consistent with its current policies and construction standards. To implement this coordination, the Owner shall make available to the Engineer, for use in planning the Project, all existing plans, maps, field notes, statistics, computations, and other data in his possession relative to existing facilities and to the Project. SECTION VI THE ENGINEER'S COMPENSATION For and in consideration of the services to be rendered by the Engineer, the Owner shall pay, and the Engineer shall receive the compensation hereinafter set forth, for the Preliminary, Design, and Construction Phases of the work and for Special Assignments and Services not included in these phases. All remittances by Owner of such compensation shall either be mailed or delivered to the Engineer's office at 301 Nesters Crossing, Suite 100, Round Rock, Texas 78681. Where the compensation is based on a percentage of construction cost, the charge for each separate phase shall be based on the "Construction Cost" of all work authorized by the Owner at one time, and handled by the Engineer in accordance with this Agreement. Curve "A" as shown on Attachment No. 1 shall be applicable for this project. "Construction Cost" is defined as the total cost to the Owner for the execution of the work authorized at one time and handled in each separate phase of engineering services, excluding fees or other cost for engineering and legal services, the cost of land, rights -of -way, legal and administrative expenses; but including the direct cost to the Owner of all construction contracts, items of construction, including labor, materials and equipment required for the completed work (including extras) and the total value at site of project of all labor, materials, and equipment purchased or furnished directly by the Owner for the Project. The aggregate of all sums paid to the Engineer for each Phase of Construction will equal one hundred percent (100 %) of the basic compensation determined from the actual total construction costs. If the designed facilities exceed the available funding after receiving bids or negotiating a contract price, then the facilities which are deleted will be paid for at a later date when they are awarded for construction. these facilities will be considered an individual period of construction and payment will be in an amount equal to a percentage of the "construction cost" of this separate Project. For example: If the available funds will only build 90% of the designed facilities, the fee for the awarded construction will be paid as described herein. When the remaining 10% of the work is awarded, it will be considered a separate Project and a percentage form the curve based on the 10% Project amount will be used to pay the basic compensation. Considering this as an individual Project, it will be necessary to compensate the Engineer in this manner because of the extra work involved in the preparation of separate contract documents, organization of plans, construction administration on the delayed Project, and the delay in payment for the Engineering Services rendered. 6 In the event that proposals for construction of any of the work authorized in the Design Phase are received within 90 days after submission of completed contract drawings and specifications to the Owner by the Engineer, the charge for the corresponding services in the Preliminary Phase shall be adjusted to the "construction cost" as reflected by the lowest acceptable proposal, or lowest bona fide bid, if no contract is awarded. Where no proposal or bona fide bids are received, the Engineer's estimates shall be the basis for final payment for these two phases. No reduction shall be made from the Basic Charge on account of penalties or liquidated damages or other sums withheld from contractor's payments. A. PRELIMINARY PHASE: Payment for services in the Preliminary Phase shall be made to the Engineer in a sum equal to a percentage of the "construction cost" of the work authorized by the Owner in this Phase of the Project. This percentage for the Preliminary Phase shall be computed as ten percent (10 %) of the Basic Charge, which Basic Charge is defined by Attachment No.1. The classification of the construction work (Classification "A" or "B ") for the purpose of applying the alternate Basic Charge is that given in Attachment No.2 - classification of Construction Work. Final Payment for services in the Preliminary Phase shall be payable upon submission to the Owner of the required report, sketches, and estimates, and upon his acceptance, which shall be within thirty (30) days after submission. If a written report is not required, this payment will be due with and in addition to payment stated in the Design Phase. B: DESIGN PHASE Payment for services in the Design Phase shall be made to the Engineer in a sum equal to a percentage of the "construction cost' of the work authorized by the Owner in this phase of the Project. This percentage for the Design Phase shall be computed as seventy -five percent (75 %) of the Basic Charge, which Basic charge is defined by Attachment No.1. The classification of the construction work (Classification "A" or "B') for the purpose of applying the alternate Basic Charge is that given in Attachment No.2 - Classification of Construction Work. Final payment for services authorized in the Design Phase shall be due upon the completion of these services and upon the Owners acceptance, which shall be within thirty (30) days after submission. When the Project is funded through the sale of municipal bonds or through grant funds, payments shall not be due until the funds are 7 in the Owner's possession. C. CONSTRUCTION PHASE Payment for services in the Construction Phase shall be made to the Engineer in a sum equal to a percentage of "construction cost" of the work authorized by the Owner in this Phase of the Project. This percentage for the Construction Phase shall be computed as fifteen percent (15 %) of the Basic Charge, which Basic Charge is defined in Attachment No.1. The classification of the construction work (Classification "A" or "B ") is that given in Attachment No.2 - Classification of Construction Work. This sum will be paid in monthly installments in proportion to the construction work completed, on the basis of the Engineer's estimated prepared for monthly payments to contractors, plus the actual value of all materials and equipment purchased or furnished directly by the Owner for the Project. Upon completion of all work authorized in the Construction Phase the Engineer will be paid the remainder of the charge for this Phase. D. SPECIAL ASSIGNMENTS AND SERVICES NOT INCLUDED IN ABOVE PERCENTAGE CHARGES The charges above described in the Preliminary, Design and Construction Phases shall provide compensation to the Engineer for all services called for under this Agreement to be performed by him, or under his direction, except the services set forth below. These excluded services and Special Assignments, and the compensation to be paid by the Owner to the Engineer for their performance, as required, are as follows: The following services, if authorized by the Owner, (1 through 7), shall be reimbursed in accordance with Attachment No. 3 - Hourly Rate Schedule. 1.

TRH/jc DATE: April 28, 1994 SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, April 26, 1994 ITEM: 9A. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an engineering agreement with Fisher Hagood for the construction of waterlines in east Round Rock. STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Jim Nuse STAFF RECOMMENDATION: In order to connect Round Rock's water system in a deal feed in our Eastern portion of town, certain improvements are necessary. A list of these improvements are attached. The Engineering firm of Fisher Hagood is recommended for this job because they also represent the parties that are building the improvements that these lines connect to. Staff feels that coordination of these projects can best be served by one firm.
