Senior Landscape Architect

email: michael.ledbetter@littleonline.com
As an international architecture and design firm, Little is recognized for developing exceptional design solutions that deliver "Results
Beyond Architecture". We are dedicated to breakthrough ideas that create a better future. Little was originally founded in Charlotte. NC
back in 1964 and has continued to grow ever since. We currently have nearly 400 employees and five offices across the United States.
Little came to Southern California 19 years ago and has been steadily building on that history ever since. Our office in Newport Beach
currently employs 65 and consists of five architectural studios that are complimented by having in-house Land Development Services
(Civil Engineering and Landscape Architecture) and Structural Engineering. With complete in-house expertise for holistic, integrated
architecture, engineering, and land development, we provide our clients the most efficient, sustainable, high-performance design.
WHY LITTLE?
Our lead Landscape Architect for this pursuit has been designing irrigation systems in Southern California for more than twenty years.
Most Landscape Architect's these days tend to farm out their irrigation design work and focus on the hardscape and planting side of typical
landscape architectural scope. Mr. Ledbetter however got his start in the business down in San Diego and where he learned irrigation
doing large tract housing projects that included vast slope areas that were being irrigated as partof grading permits for new developments.
These often included challenges in terms of adequate pressure and extended mainline runs and multiple controllers and meters/ POCs.
Since then, he has been living and working in Southern California and providing irrigation design and documentation for all his projects.
Mr. Ledbetterjoined Little in 2016 and his first order of business was designing a new irrigation system for a 26 acre corporate headquarters
up in Roseville, CA. The project included multiple POCs with booster pumps and state of the art irrigation controllers that operate and
adjust automatically based on actual ETD. Little's strengths are its people and the culture they cultivate inside the office. It's our diversity
that helps galvanize a culture of excellence and a belief that the next great idea can come from anyone. Whether new to the firm, or an
established associate, everyone is expected to hold our core values at the heart the decisions they make; Care, Stretch, Spark. Care
about their projects, their clients, and their fellow employees. Stretch their imagination outside the box to find the next breakthrough idea.
Spark the imaginations of those around them by not being afraid to say, "What if?" We look forward to the opportunity to show you what
we're capable of.
Sincerely,.—,

UNDERSTANDING OF NEED
Project Coordination --As prime consultant, an on -going role
for us will be Project Management and Project Administration
as outlined in the RFP. Our design team will be led by Michael
Ledbetter and he will be Main Point of Contact with the City.
This vital task will include managing all aspects of the project,
issuing progress reports to the City keeping you informed our
progress on a regular basis, internal coordination and quality
control with rest of design team, and outside coordination with
others where needed. This task will also include the following
key responsibilities:
• Project Construction Costs — You have a budget for
this project that is funded through the Park Acquisition
and Development Funds for District 2. We understand
the challenge of making this project fit within that budget
and getting the most out of every dollar earmarked for this
irrigation upgrade. Our design team will be generating our
own estimates for this work. Using the City's approved
format, we'll generate a list of construction line items
and include quantities, unit costs, and totals for all parts
of the construction scope. We'll be using our years of
experience building things along with other reference
data to generate our unit costs for each item. Common
reference data includes recent project construction and
actual construction costs we're seeing as our projects get
completed. Given everything that's going on in the world,
this is a great time to be building something. We're see
good pricing coming in on all of our public sector work
mostly with schools and universities. We also use 3rd
Party reference material such as the "Saylor 2020" for
current construction costs. This gives us confidence to
provide you with good unit costs for all the items that will
need be provided and installed as part of this renovation.
• Project Schedule — We feel the best way to ensure
quality is to expeditiously complete the project on a
comprehensive, aggressive timeline that isn't rushing but
also isn't allowing too much lag time between deadlines.
We think there is an opportunity to condense the proposed
submittal schedule of 30%,60%,90%,100%. This is an
irrigation renovation project and once we get through the
initial design (pressure calculations, mainline routing, and
head layout, irrigation controller location and conduit routing)
there really isn't much to be gained with that many increment
submittals. We would suggest starting with a 50% design
submittal package and then going to 90% and 100%. This
can get you to groundbreaking faster, it also means we can
keep our fee as low as possible because we're eliminating
the additional admin paperwork and processing that would
be added to our scope with a (4th) submittal package.
• Design Team Management — We have a small, focused
team on this project. The majority of the work will be
performed by our Landscape Architect with our one
subconsultant , Linwood Engineering, providing electrical
engineering for the irrigation controller power and install.
Our approach to meeting your expectations includes staying
in constant communication with the City and each member
of our design team. We take it upon ourselves to respond
as quickly as we can to your phone calls and emails, which
typically is same day if not within an hour or two. Issues
typically develop because of a lack of communication and
we create an open line of discussion with the City and all
our team members to ensure that everyone is talking, more
importantly that everyone is heard.
• Quality Control — Like any design firm we understand that
we're only as good our projects, and those are only as good
our drawings. During the design and construction document
phase we will have our own internal team schedule for
each discipline. They will be required to provide us their
drawings ahead of any city submittal so that our in-house
design team can review and provide redline comment back
prior to said submittal. In addition, our internal QAQC team
will scan the drawing sets at each milestone submittal for
errors, omissions, coordination issues, etc. Our expertise
in irrigation and electrical design, along with detailing and
construction processes will help us anticipate issues that
could be discovered in the field so we can update the
drawings to reflect all the scope required by the contractor.

B. Records Research — If we're going to give you sound, E.
professional design advice we need to understand your existing
conditions. We'll review available as-builts for the site and
using the CADD file provided by the City we'll create layers for
existing utilities within our design file that will be helpful when
laying out the new mainline routing. It appears that some of
the existing routing goes under pavement and very close to
large existing trees so it may not be possible to run the new
mainline in the exact same location. We've already been to the
site and opened several of the valve boxes to confirm what the
as -built in the RFP was showing so we can see where it would
be advantageous to re-route the new mainline through more
wide open lawn areas to avoid existing hardscape and/or large
existing shade trees.
C. Survey — After careful consideration of the proposed scope,
and visiting the site for ourselves we do not believe a complete
topographic survey of the site is necessary to complete this
irrigation renovation. The proposed scope does not include
grading and/or drainage of any kind and we don't forsee
changing existing line of grade anywhere. We feel comfortable
using the CADD file that will be provided by the City and then
making any adjustments needed based on our own field
observations and measurements. Again, this allows us keep
our fees low while pushing a faster schedule for deliverables.
D. Permit — Based on the work described in the RFP, and our
understanding of the work to be performed, we don't believe
there are any additional permit requirements for this project.
Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E) — As
mentioned previously, from a professional point of view, this is
rather simple, straight forward type project that doesn't need
to be bogged down with extra submittals. Please refer to the
itemized scope of work and deliverable list for more info on the
construction document phase. For the actual work of designing
and laying out a new irrigation system, here are some of the
standard "Best Practices" we'll follow in preparing these plans;
Establish an isolated P.O.C. with separate backflow
preventer, master valve, flow sensor and pressure regulator
leading to new irrigation system. The backflow prevents the
irrigation system from backing up into the main City system,
and allows for the irrigation system to be completely shut-
off while keeping the potable onsite water fully operation.
The master valve and flow sensor will give your new
controller the power to shut the system down and alert you
of any potential mainline breaks. We expect that you have
good static pressure (85-90 PSI) and a pressure regulator
can help deliver the right amount of pressure as needed
for each valve. Allowing the system to operate above
normal pressure ratings stresses out your fittings and joint
connections, wears out your pipe faster, and can cause
problems down the road with wear and tear on your new
valves and quick couplers.
Loop the mainline to reduce friction loss and pipe wear &
tear.
Route the mainline through existing turf areas to minimize
trenching and patching of lawn and protect existing tree
canopy in place.
• Full Circle radius rotor and spray heads will be placed on
their own remote control valves.
Half and quarter circle radius rotor and spray heads will be
placed on their own remote control valves.
Provide shut-off valves along the mainline for ease of
isolating portions of the system in the future when repairs
are needed.
Provide quick coupler valves along the mainline for easier
hand watering in the future when portions of the system
need to be shut down for repairs or future construction.
• Provide pipe sizing for all new mainline and laterals so new
irrigation installation can be properly bid.

Suggestions/Special Concerns— We're just coming into this
project so we still have a lot of catching up to do. The City and
it's Staff has been dealing with the site for a long time so we
don't know exactly what your preferences are regarding certain
types of irrigation or certain products. We make the following
suggestions / raise the following concerns based soley on what
we observed during our site walk and our more than twenty
years of designing irrigation systems in Southern California.
Based on the latest state requirements for irrigation we
mostly specify rotator nozzles instead of traditional rotors
and spray heads. These are more efficient getting water
down, losing less as mist and overspray. They also require
less water use as they lower GPM output, They may not
have the radius throws required in the largest turf areas on
the site but we would suggest these be considered where
possible.
The RFP doesn't list Irrigation Demolition as the expected
sheet list but if we were awarded this project we would
include separate irrigation demolition sheets showing in
detail the extent of removal for existing mainline, valves,
laterals, heads, etc. This will give the contractor accurate
quantity take -offs and make it clear that special handling
will be required for the removal and disposal of the existing
transite pipe mainline.
We would recommend installing a Two -Wire System and
Controller. This will make installation easier as there will
only be one conduit run to make into the existing structure
and new controller location. We won't have to run wires
from each valve location back to that spot. A Two -Wire
system will also make it easier to expand the controller
chart in the future. While it may not seem critical now, it
is easy to see a future here in California where water is
even more scarce and Cities all around will need to reduce
the amount of lawn they are watering. Going to a two -wire
system now gives you ultimate flexibility down the road
when it becomes politically necessary to convert some
of the large lawn areas in the park to native shrubs and
groundcovers.
Based on the "ZONE IRRIGAITON MAP" provided in
the RFP, there is a purple spray zone around the fitness
area that does not currently exist. We viewed this area
during our site walk and that landscape area will need to
be defined by these drawings and appropriate planting and
irrigation designed.
The existing parking lot landscape areas will be a challenge
for installation of new irrigation. There is well established
palm and shrub plantings throughout that look to have
"naturalized" to the site. These would be areas where
we'd look to preserve any existing irrigation where possible
since trenching in and around these tight locations could
damage existing plant material.

TASKS NECESSARY FOR SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION
Kick-off meeting with City staff and other appropriate people to better understand their needs / concerns as it pertains to this irrigation
renovation and future maintenance/operation of the new system.
Conduct thorough site visit making inventory of existing irrigation equipment and plant material that may be impacted by the
proposed trenching and install of new irrigation, and getting accurate photos of existing conditions.
• A thorough review of existing as-builts relevant to the site. Particularly existing wet and dry utilities that run through the park so we
can make sure the General Contractor who performs the installation work won't encounter any surprises once they break ground.
• Verify available water pressure at the POC. This is critical info for designing the new turf rotor layouts and valving out the new
system. In talking with the City Water Department in preparing this response we learned that latest records indicate that static water
pressure at the park is between 85 and 90 psi. That is plenty of PSI to run and operate a new system for the park with 24 valves.
Coordination with electrical engineer to determine how best to run new conduit to new controller location within the structure.
Productive meetings with City and staff during review sessions that identify weaknesses in the design or in the construction plans so
we can constantly be refining the plans to a point of absolute clarity.
Proper selection of new irrigation products and devices. You're looking to install new rotors and spray heads along with a new
controller, We can help sift through the options and take advantage of the latest technologies.
There are a few areas where you will need selection of new plant material and we can provide that as part of our construction
document package as well.
Well -coordinated construction plans that clearly indicate the intended scope, from what has to be removed to what is to be built in
its place.

The final design involves implementation of (3) separate phases to completely remake the entire
campus. In Phase #01, (19) existing portable classroom buildings will be replaced with two (2) new,
Two -Story Pre -Fast classroom buildings. In Phase #02, the existing school building itself will undergo
an exciting modernization effort. And in Phase #03, the rest of the site will be renovated. While respect
to the historic site walls, the parking lot and drop off areas will be reorganized. Acquisition of an
adjacent parcel will allow for the total parking count to be expanded,
The final site layout being prepared by Little's Land Development Studio also included new play
equipment, shade structures, outdoor classrooms, hard -courts, and a sports field. They also applied
various L.I.D. techniques to address storm water treatment and capture on -site. Additionally, a new
irrigation system had to be designed for the (6) acre site, combining the front of the project with the
back of the project into one P.O.0 and one smart controller. Construction was done in phasing so
irrigation was designed to allow for portions of existing to remain while other portions were removed
and new irrigation was installed.
