Exhibit A
Re: Proposal for Engineering Services for the City of Pearland's
McHard Road Reconstruction
C.R. 94 to W. Country Place Blvd.
Design Phase Services
Dear Mr. Epperson:
HDR/Claunch & Miller (HDR/C&M) is pleased to submit this proposal for performing
engineering services for the above referenced project. This proposal is based on our
understanding of the project as per our previous conversations and meetings.
The project includes performing the Design Phase services for the pavement removal and
replacement for McHard Road from County Road 94 to W. Country Place Boulevard.
HDR/C&M has been previously authorized by the City to complete the drainage study and
preliminary roadway grading portions of the project.
This proposal presents a general overview of the project for completion of the construction
documents, and provides the scope of services and fee.
GENERAL OVERVIEW
McHard Road currently is a four-lane boulevard section from S.H. 288 to E. Country Place
Boulevard, and continues east approximately 0.5 miles as two lanes of a future four-lane
boulevard section. The City of Pearland will soon extend the additional two lanes from E.
Country Place Blvd. to 0.5 miles east, and also extend the full boulevard section from this
point to Cullen Road (FM 865) for a total distance of 1.2 miles. The City of Pearland has
previously contracted with HDR/C&M (in 2008) to provide engineering design services for
these improvements. This design has been recently completed.
The extension project east of Country Place Blvd. will be constructed over the next 15
months and the City and County anticipate that the increased traffic demand on the existing
roadway will necessitate the reconstruction of the portion of the roadway from C.R. 94 to W.

Country Place Boulevard. Furthermore, this portion of the roadway has areas that flood and
cause the roadway to be impassable in heavy rainfall events.
This project includes the design of the removal and replacement of a four-lane divided
concrete curb and gutter boulevard roadway, consisting of two 25-foot wide pavement
sections running each direction. The pavement will consist of 10-inch thick reinforced
concrete pavement as per the City of Pearland standards for thoroughfares. The roadway will
be raised above existing roadway grade in selected areas to reduce the frequency of roadway
flooding. Please note that this Scope of Services includes only the design of new storm
sewer improvements consisting of replacement of existing storm inlets and leads. It is our
understanding that the offsite storm sewer design, if any, will be contracted under a separate
proposal.
This portion of the project is located in the City's ETJ, Brazoria County, and Brazoria
County M.U.D. No. 4, and it is anticipated that the reconstruction and drainage
improvements will be jointly funded by all three entities. The services presented in this
proposal are for the completion of the design of the McHard Road Reconstruction between
CR 94 and West Country Place Blvd. and the incorporation of these plans into the
construction documents for the previously completed McHard Road Extension project.
Topographic surveying for this portion of the roadway has been completed and will be
delivered to HDR/C&M.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
I. DESIGN PHASE SERVICES
A. Basic Services -Design Phase
• Research and gather existing relevant data on the project such as existing utility
information, pipeline crossings, as available.
• Contact private utility companies, and other entities that may be involved to
obtain information on their existing facilities and requirements that may impact
this project.
• Prepare base mapping of the project area based on survey data supplied by the
City's surveyor.
• Provide design for the paving improvements for the project. Note that this Scope
of Services does not include design of any new storm sewer systems, other than
storm inlets and stornl inlet leads. The design of the storm sewer system will be
designed by other consultants or by HDR~C&M under a separate agreement.
Page 3 of 5
Mc Hard Road - CR 94 to W Country Place Blvd. Design Services
• Existing geotechnical information obtained for the McHard Road Extension
project will be utilized to determine potential soil conditions, roadway pavement
design and potential impact on construction methodology and costs.
• Obtain available record drawings from the City, County and B.C. M.U.D. No. 4.
• Coordinate with other governmental entities, which may be impacted by the
project included those listed above and TxDOT.
• Prepare project drawings, bid documents and construction drawings based on

review/approval by City staff only.
• Incorporate appropriate comments from pertinent entities into the final bid
documents:
• Complete coordination with other governmental entities or utility agencies in
regard to the project. Assist the City in obtaining and/or securing approvals
required by governmental authorities with jurisdiction over the design and/or the
operation of the project and public and private utilities including pipeline
transmission companies affected by this project. This assistance will involve the
usual expected coordination and approval process. When the process involves
work beyond the expected, such as special submittals, U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Permitting, designs, appearances at special meetings, coordination of
utility/pipeline excavation efforts, permitting applications, etc., such work would
be considered under the Additional Services portion of this proposal.
• Prepare a final cost estimate for including the project with the previously designed
McHard Road Extension project.
• McHard Road Reconstruction design plans will be incorporated into the
construction documents for the previously completed McHard Road Extension
project.

Notices of Intent (NOI) and two Notices of Termination (NOT), in
accordance with the Texas National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(TPDES) General Permit for Storm Water Discharge from construction
sites.
2. Traffic Control Plan
Prepare a Traffic Control Plan for the routing of traffic through the project
site during the construction phase. This plan will include required signs and
lane closures to complete the proposed improvements.

The above fee reflects that the City has previously authorized HDR/C&M an interim design
phase fee of $27,250 towards the completion of this project. HDR/C&M will submit monthly
progress invoices for all engineering work completed to invoice date. Construction and Bid
Phase services will be provided under the previous authorization for the McHard Road

additional monies will be requested if the schedule is extended for unforeseen circumstances.
Subcontractor expenses will be charged at the subcontractor's invoice plus 10%. Time and
