PROJECT UNDERSTANDING Based on our current understanding our updated proposal reflects the following modified assumptions with respect to the project and Scope of Work: 1) Anticipated construction budget in the range of $200,000 - $215,000. 2) City of Santa Ana will supply a copy of the 2008 site survey to be used for the project. It is assumed that any missing survey information will be supplied by the City of Santa Ana. 3) City of Santa Ana will supply necessary geotechnical information as requested from ELM's structural engineer. 4) Travel expenses will be economized through the use of web -based conferencing and other communication tools and technologies, with on -site travel limited only to the most critical project phases and tasks. 5) An appropriate Scope of Work and associated Professional Fee for Construction Observation /Administration will be determined subsequent to this Agreement, based upon an updated understanding of the actual project needs. APPROACH TO SERVICES The following Scope of Work includes architecture and exhibit design disciplines for the purpose of creating Construction Documents for the Ocelot Habitat at the Santa Ana Zoo, suitable for competitive bid and construction. The project team consists of: • ELM I Seattle, WA — Providing architectural and exhibit design. (Exline Design will be the project's Architect of Record, with ELM coordinating the project management and production effort) • Ron Glazier I Bellingham, WA — Providing advisory zoological planning consultant services, contributing in -depth knowledge, familiarity, and history of the zoo's campus. • Krech Ojard I a CA registered structural engineering consulting firm who specializes in catenary structures for zoological institutions. • Robert Foley & Associates I Seattle, WA — a civil engineer who specializes in civil infrastructure projects for small parks & recreation organizations. • Southland Energy Consultants — a Laguna Beach electrical and plumbing consulting firm recommended by Steve Sloan and Ron Glazier. EXHIBIT A ANTICIPATED SCOPE OF WORK The "Ocelot Habitat Exhibit" as represented shall include, but not limited to, Habitat /Exhibit Areas, Holding Buildings, Landscape & Irrigation Design, Public Walkways & Gathering Areas, and Fencing all based on the concept design workshop facilitated by ELM. In order to facilitate an efficient design process and to and meet your funding milestones, we suggest the following work structure, organized around sequential project Phases, as described below: PHASE I — SCHEMATIC DESIGN Task A — Project Kickoff Meeting The ELM Team will facilitate a one -day schematic design review meeting on -site at the zoo to evaluate the concept design, attached herein as an Exhibit, with the City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency, zoo staff and veterninarians, and FOSAZ leadership. During this meeting we will also review available existing site data (surveys, utility information) and identify missing information that will be needed by the design team and identify the best way to gather that information. During this meeting ELM will establish and present an overall project workplan and schedule. Because of the time - and - budget - critical nature of the project it is absolutely crucial that a shared understanding of the design process, critical schedule milestones, and project objectives are understood. A communication structure and issue - resolution process will ensure that potential conflicts are identified and resolved proactively as a part of the design effort, before they become costly problems during construction. Task B — Schematic Design Package Using the last known detailed site survey as a base (or most accurate /appropriate survey as determined with the Client), ELM will develop a schematic design package that will include the following. Exhibit Site Plan Schematic Layout Plan & Materials Schematic Floor Plans of the Holding Sheds and Exhibits Roof Plans Building & Exhibit Sections Site Elevations Schematic Typical Wall Sections Task C — Schematic Design Review ELM will facilitate a web - conference with appropriate members of the City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency, FOSAZ and Santa Ana Zoo staff to review the Schematic Design Package. During this meeting, the Client will provide input and comment as appropriate, and the design team will document the outcome of the meeting. It is anticipated that necessary changes will be identified during this meeting, and that the Client will provide approval of Schematic Design with the design team reflecting project team input during the subsequent Design Development Phase of Work. 10 20A -20 PHASE II — DESIGN DEVELOPMENT Task A — Design Development Package The design team will further develop the design solution during this phase to a 60% level -of- completion, describing the dimensions, configuration, surfaces and selected materials and systems to be used. Included in this phase of work will be a cursory code research, including a summary of permitting requirements. The Design Development Package will include: Site development CAD Base Plan Building /Floor Plans Typical Building Cross - Sections Exhibit Barrier Plans Preliminary Landscape Site Details Special design features Outdoor furniture / Fixtures / Equipment Outline specifications Definition of Structural Systems Storm and Sanitary Sewer System Diagram Civil Plan Electrical system and lighting diagram Task B — Design Development Review ELM will facilitate a web conference to gather feedback from the City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency, Zoo staff, FOSAZ, and the project consultant team. During this conference, refinements to the plan will be presented to the project team for review, input, and approval. All client- requested input and refinements will be completed during the subsequent Construction Document Phase of Work. Task C — City of Santa Ana pre - submittal meeting City will schedule and facilitate a pre - submittal meeting with appropriate members of the City of Santa Ana parks, public works, and /or building departments to review the proposed scope of work and to confirm the preliminary findings with respect to the project team's code research. Task D — Design Development Cost Evaluation During the course of the Design Development Phase, ELM will prepare a corresponding cost evaluation for the purpose of providing a general order -of- magnitude understanding of the project's potential construction cost. PHASE III —CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS Task A —Construction Document Preparation Following completion and approval of the design development package, ELM will complete architectural & exhibit site design construction document package design describing the dimensions, configuration, surfaces and selected materials and systems to be used in the project's construction, suitable for competitive bid and construction.
