RE: City of Carmel-By-The-Sea Request for Qualifications for Municipal Services

Dear Mr. Harary,

I want to personally thank you and the City of Carmel-By-The-Sea (City of Carmel) for the opportunity to
submit a proposal for Municipal Survey Services to be conducted within the City of Carmel.

I have been working with construction and contracting in the environmental compliance realm going on
16 years now, and Im confident my team will provide you with great customer service, with an emphasis
on understanding the challenges to meet the stringent Federal and State environmental regulations
required of local agencies.

The majority of the work contracted by the City of Carmel will be performed within City limits. Many of
our staff members have completed projects up and down the coast of California, allowing Soar
Environmental Consulting to have a working understanding of the different landscapes and cultures that
the California coast brings to the table. The headquarters for Soar Environmental Consulting is centrally
located within the San Joaquin Valley. Our address is 1401 Fulton Street, Suite 918, Fresno, California
93721. I, Michael J. Murphy, am the office representative who can legally execute agreements and
amendments with the City of Carmel. Finally, you have my personal commitment that my team will
complete all services and deliver all written reports in accordance with the requirements and within the
specified time frame.

I look forward to collaborating with you on future projects within the City of Carmel, and to building a
great relationship in the very near future. Please let me know if there is anything I can provide to ensure
the highest quality of work in the most expeditious manner.

Most Sincerely,

Michael J Murphy
