RSOQ Template 3-26 3

I. Introduction.

PCMC is engaged in a public-private partnership to develop a 5-acre property within the City. The site was formally used for a variety of commercial uses including a gas station, auto repair shop, dentist office, medical offices, church and grocery store. The proposed development could include over 100 units of housing, a daycare center, outdoor recreational facilities, 30,000 square feet of commercial space, and underground parking.

The City conducted a Phase II ESA (attached as Exhibit A) which identified several feet of contaminated soil on the property in addition to possible groundwater contamination.

In anticipation of receiving federal brownfield grants, the City enrolled in DERR’s VCP and has fully characterized the site. While funding applications were unsuccessful, the City intends to stay enrolled in the VCP and complete the requirements of a VCP during redevelopment.

II. Scope of Project.

The scope of this project includes development of regulatory required documents as part of the VCP program. Documents will include a remedial action plan, quality assurance plan, site management plans, environmental covenant and possibly a risk assessment. It is anticipated that no additional site characterization sampling will be necessary to close out the project.

In addition to the VCP documents, the selected Respondent will need to also provide air monitoring throughout the project and conduct periodic site visits to ensure compliance with local and state rules and potentially develop a construction mitigation plan that addresses requirements found in Park City’s local Landscaping and Maintenance of Soil Cover Ordinance.

Respondents will need to demonstrate a clear ability to deliver these services in a timely manner, as the City intends to start the redevelopment project during the Summer of 2027.

The City has completed an initial review with DERR (attached as Exhibit B).

III. Contents of SOQ and Evaluation Criteria.

a. Contents of SOQ

SOQs will be evaluated on the criteria listed below. SOQs are limited to 12 pages including resumes and related experience profiles. Respondents should describe their experience with VCPs, writing Remedial Action Plans, Site Management Plans, and Environmental Covenants taking into account regulatory requirements from DERR and any applicable local laws.

Pursuant to Utah Code § 63G-2-305(6), all records related to this procurement, including but not limited to SOQs, evaluations, and selection procedures, and any records created during the evaluation and selection process will remain nonpublic records during the procurement process. After execution of a contract, all submittals will be treated as public records in accordance with the requirements of GRAMA unless otherwise claimed by the Respondent as exempt from disclosure pursuant to Utah Code § 63G-2-309, as amended. The burden of claiming an exemption shall rest solely with each

RSOQ Template 3-26 5

Respondent. Respondent shall submit any materials for which Respondent claims an exemption from disclosure marked as “Confidential” and accompanied by a statement from Respondent supporting the exemption claim. PCMC shall make reasonable efforts to notify Respondent of any GRAMA requests for documents submitted under an exemption claim.

Respondent waives any claims against PCMC related to disclosure of any materials pursuant to GRAMA. Please note the following:

a. Respondent must not stamp all materials confidential. Only those materials for which a claim of confidentiality can be made under GRAMA, such as trade secrets, pricing, non-public financial information, etc., should be stamped.

b. Respondent must submit a letter stating the reasons for the claim of confidentiality for every type of information that is stamped “Confidential.” Generally, GRAMA only protects against the disclosure of trade secrets or commercial information that could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury. Failure to timely submit a written basis for a claim of “Confidential” may result in a waiver of an exemption from disclosure under GRAMA.

c. For convenience, a Business Confidentiality Request Form (“BCR Form”) is attached to this procurement as Attachment 1. Respondent must submit a completed BCR Form at the time of submission of any proposal.

The claim of business confidentiality is supported by (please check the box/boxes that apply):

( ) The described portion of the record is a trade secret as defined in Utah Code § 13-24-2.

( ) The described portion of the record is commercial or non-individual financial information the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the provider of the information or would impair the ability of the governmental entity to obtain the necessary information in the future and the interest of the claimant in prohibiting access to the information is greater than the interest of the public in obtaining access.
