Up to three (3) Michael Baker staff members will participate in this meeting. Task 1.2 Regular Coordination Meetings Throughout the development of the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update, the Michael Baker team, led by Project Manager Valerie Clarke, will work proactively with the City Project Manager to ensure tasks are completed on time and within budget, with optimal use of resources. To support timely project completion, the Michael Baker team will participate in regular meetings with the City during the course of the work program. These meetings will primarily be held via virtual calls and will serve to discuss progress, address issues, review administrative documents and deliverables, and receive direction as needed. The team recommends meeting twice per month, with frequency adjusted based on the stage of the Project. Up to twelve (12) regular coordination meetings are anticipated. Task 1.3 Project Management Ms. Clarke will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the team; her responsibilities will include coordinating Michael Baker's internal teams and City leadership through progress monitoring, invoicing, preparation of progress reports, maintenance of project files, and oversight of scope and schedule adherence.

This meeting could be either a standalone meeting or co -located at a Recreation and Park Commission hearing. Hosting this meeting at the onset of the project allows the Commission to help shape the goals and policies, while also informing the public of the Project. The meeting may include the following components: • Project introduction • Roles and responsibilities • Discussion of plan goals and objectives • Review of existing documents • Inventory of questions and concerns related to the General Plan update process Michael Baker will host and facilitate the meeting with a presentation and up to five (5) display boards. The meeting will be limited to a maximum of two (2) hours. It is assumed the City will secure an appropriate meeting space. The City will be responsible for confirming attendance of Recreation and Park Commission members and distributing email invites. As this is an open meeting, other commissions and committees, such as the Environmental Quality Control Board and the Ad Hoc General Plan/Local Coastal Plan Citizens Advisory Committee, will also be invited to participate. To support outreach, the Michael Baker team will design one (1) visually compelling promotional flyer tailored for multi -channel distribution. This flyer will be suitable for email blasts, inclusion on the project website, and adaptation for social media platforms. QR codes may be included to direct viewers to the City's website or meeting details. The City will be responsible for distributing the promotional content through its website, social media channels, newsletters, printed mailings, and other relevant outlets. Task 2.2 Online Survey In coordination with the City, Michael Baker will develop an online survey, compile survey results, and provide a detailed summary of input received. The survey will be provided through SurveyMonkey, and will include multiple choice questions, ranking/rating scales, and open-ended questions, all specifically designed to inform the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update. The team anticipates up to twelve (12) questions so that the survey is focused and easy to complete for the community. The team will coordinate with the City to make the survey link available on the website prior to Task 2.1 Recreation and Park Commission Community Meeting so that the survey can be advertised at the meeting. The City will be responsible for distributing and promoting the survey website, social media channels, newsletters, printed mailings, and other relevant outlets. Survey summary information will be included in Task 2.3 Community Engagement Summary.

Anticipated resource documents include those highlighted below. Additional open space -related documents will be reviewed as needed to support the Element update process. ■ Existing General Plan Elements, including the current Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element, the Land Use Element, and the Circulation Element • Draft Environmental Justice Element Draft Safety Element ■ Draft Local Coastal Program (LCP), Land Use Plan (LUP) • Local Hazard Mitigation Plan ■ Plans and documents from the Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority • California Essential Habitat Connectivity Project • State Wildlife Action Plan • Restoring California's Wildlife Connectivity (2022) • Recreation and resource policies from the Orange County General Plan • Existing open space documentation and community -specific updates • City -specific GIS files related to open space, recreation, and conservation Given that Michael Baker is concurrently preparing the City of Seal Beach's Environmental Justice Element and Safety Element Update, the team is positioned to provide efficiencies and rust savings during the existing conditions and baseline assessment phase of this task. To support the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update, the team will integrate baseline data from the draft Environmental Justice Element to highlight Seal Beach's demographics and identify disadvantaged populations. Page 3 INTERNATIONAL City of Seal Beach Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update Proposal Since the team has already completed an assessment using the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen) for the Environmental Justice Element, this research—focused on social, economic, and racial equity—will serve as a foundation for analyzing equitable access to open space. Additionally, climate resilience and other co -benefits of open space, as aligned with the Safety Element, will be incorporated into the plan. The team will integrate reduced risks from climate -related hazards and offers opportunities for safe co- habitation in open spaces. Regarding wildlife integration, Michael Baker will conduct a desktop analysis of connectivity areas within the City, focusing on landscape permeability and natural corridors. The team will identify and assess existing or planned wildlife passage features. This analysis will ensure that future development does not compromise the effectiveness of these features. The current Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element highlights wildlife habitats and natural resources within the City, particularly in Planning Area 5 (Seal Beach U.S. Naval Weapons Station/Wildlife Refuge), Gum Grove Nature Park's urban forest connection, and the Los Cerritos Wetlands. The team will update review for additional opportunities for re -wilding, in coordination with the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Task 3.2 Exhibit Preparation To support Task 3.1 Existing Conditions and Baseline Assessment, the Michael Baker team will prepare and update mapping exhibits. Location -based data will be captured in a GIS database compatible with Seal Beach's systems, where feasible. The team will leverage shapefiles and layer styles from its current work on the LCP, LUP, Safety Element, and Environmental Justice Element to promote both efficiency and consistency across graphics. Up to five (5) mapping exhibits are anticipated. Below are examples of recommended exhibits. Michael Baker will collaborate with the City to determine the most relevant content to highlight in each: • Open Space/Conservation Program Map: Displays designated open space areas, including parks, greenbelts, and protected lands. • Wildlife Habitat and Corridor Map: Identifies critical habitats and movement corridors for biodiversity conservation, incorporating statewide and local wildlife movement layers while showing linkages across the City. ■ Recreation Map: Showcases community spaces, trails, and recreational facilities. • Urban Heat Island and Vegetation Map: Uses existing vegetation data or aerial imagery to distinguish vegetated vs. non -vegetated areas, with connections to wildfire risk using CalFire and other relevant fire hazard layers. • Biodiversity Conservation Map: Includes biodiversity hotspots and priority conservation areas using data from USFWS critical habitat layers, CNDDB mapping, National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), and existing conserved lands, public lands, and parks. Task 3.3 Action Plan: Goals, Policies, and Priorities The Michael Baker team will use the existing Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element as a foundation to review and refine goals and policies, minimizing the need for a complete overhaul of the Plan. Updated policies will focus on preserving, enhancing, and expanding an Page 4 • INTERNATIONAL City of Seal Beach Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update Proposal integrated network of open space that supports beneficial uses such as habitat conservation, recreation, natural resource protection, historic and tribal resource preservation, water management, and aesthetic value. In addition to a comprehensive review of the existing vision and policy framework, the Element update will be aligned with the requirements of Government Code Sections 65560 through 65562. The team will ensure that the revised goals, policies, and priorities reflect the broader General Plan vision, incorporate diverse perspectives, and gain community support. The team will also consider relevant goals and strategies outlined in the Environmental Justice Element and Safety Element Update, integrating them into the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element where appropriate to ensure consistency and reinforce priorities such as equity, climate resilience, and public health. The goals, objectives and policies will be summarized into an Microsoft Excel file that will be integrated into the Element Draft. Task 3.4 Administrative Draft Plan Michael Baker will compile all previous efforts into an Administrative Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update draft. The team understands the importance of delivering a concise, well-written, and visually engaging document that will serve City staff, stakeholders, decision -makers, and the public effectively for years to come. To ensure high quality, Michael Baker's graphic design and technical editing team will support the development of the document by integrating maps, graphics, photos, charts, and data that complement and enhance the written content. Upon receiving the Administrative Draft Element, the City will consolidate all redline, strikeout, and tracked changes into a single document. Michael Baker will then incorporate these edits into the Updated Draft Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update to be presented to the Recreation and Park Commission, as outlined in Task 3.5 Recreation and Park Commission Review Session. Task 3.5 Recreation and Park Commission Review Session Michael Baker will assist the City in conducting one review session with the Recreation and Park Commission for the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update. This session will include a presentation on the Element's development process, community outreach efforts, and key findings to date. The team will solicit feedback from Commission members during the session for consideration in the draft Element. It is not anticipated that new sections will be added or that significant changes will be made to the Element as a result of this session. Any changes into the draft Element update will be integrated into the Public Review Draft. Two (2) Michael Baker staff members will attend the review session and will prepare all necessary presentation and handout materials to support the discussion for the in person session. Task 3 Deliverables • One (1) Goals, Objectives, and Policies Matrix; this will be integrated into the Element draft (Microsoft Excel) • Up to five (5) mapping/graphic exhibits (GIS and Adobe PDF) • One (1) Administrative Draft Plan (Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF) • Two (2) staff members in attendance at one (1) Recreation and Park Commission Review Page 5 City of Seal Beach Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update Proposal INTERNATIONAL .__ Session TASK 4.0 PUBLIC REVIEW AND ADOPTION OF ELEMENTS Task 4.1 Public Review Draft Element Michael Baker will provide an electronic public review draft in Adobe PDF and Microsoft Word format to the City.

Two Michael Baker staff members will attend each hearing and will prepare presentation and handout materials as necessary. One final hard copy of the adopted Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element update will be transmitted to the City. Task 4.4 CEQA Commonsense Exemption This scope of work above assumes that policy and action plan updates will qualify for a common sense CEQA exemption. The Michael Baker team has historically utilized this exemption for General Plan Element updates where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). Michael Baker will prepare a draft Notice of Exemption (NOE) outlining the project description and applicability of CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). The NOE will be submitted to City staff electronically for one round of review/comment. The Michael Baker team will incorporate comments into a final NOE and file with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse upon adoption of the Open Space, Recreation, and Conservation Element Update. Should it be determined that a commonsense exemption does not apply to the project, Michael Baker can assist with preparing an alternative CEQA documentation (e.g., Negative Declaration) to provide environmental clearance for the proposed project under a separate scope and fee.
