We believe the Phase 1 work realistically projects the amount of space and staffing levels needed for the courthouse facility by 2036. We are enthusiastic about the progress we've made to date, and look forward as the project proceeds into the next phase. This fee proposal letter is presented to you for the proposed Phase 2 work for the above referenced project. Per our original agreement, this fee proposal is one of the final components of our Phase 1 scope of work and report. The tasks associated with Phase 2 of the project, along with ART's proposed fee, are listed below. Phase 2 Proposed Sc{tpe of Services: This phase of the project will be broken down into the following work tasks: pg.l A. Conduct a Project Phase 1 Review Meeting: ART will facilitate a project Phase 1 review meeting with the county's Project Leadership Team with the goal of reviewing the results of the Phase 1 space/staffing needs assessment process, and to answer any outstanding questions related to this phase before commencing with the Phase 2 work. B. Develop Department Adjacency Diagrams: ART will develop department adjacency diagrams sketches, commonly referred to as "bubble diagrams", that will illustrate options for the adjacency requirements as defined in the department surveys completed as part of the Phase I work for presentation to the Project's Leadership Team in a project status review meeting. Any modifications resulting from discussions at this meeting will be made, with these final diagram drawings then included in the Phase 2 final report. C. Develop Preliminary Design Floor Plans and Site Plan: Upon ART receiving approval to proceed on to the next stage, ART will proceed with the development of preliminary design floor plans of the proposed courthouse pg.2 addition. It is our understanding at this time that the County has no intention of maintaining any of the existing courthouse facility for permanent use. All county departments currently located in the existing courthouse, plus some departments or partial departments currently located off site, will move into the new courthouse addition upon completion. It is our further understanding that that part of the site currently occupied by the existing courthouse will be demolished and the resultant site area used for additional staff and/or public parking. Floor plan and site plan options will be provided to illustrate optional floor plan layouts and site utilization. Additionally, ART will create 3-D colored renderings of the exterior of the proposed building addition to illustrate anticipated scale, form, and texture of the building shell and site areas. These preliminary design drawings will be presented to the Project's Leadership Team in a presentation meeting for review and comment. Any modifications resulting from discussions at this meeting will be made, with these final preliminary design drawings sent to you for final review. These drawings will then be included in the Phase 2 final report. D. Development of Project Materials and Systems Design Narratives: ART and each of our subconsultants will develop project design narratives wherein materials, components, and system equipment proposed for the project will be described in general terms. Additionally, the design rationale for choosing these particular materials and system equipment will be presented, such as abuse and wear- and-tear resistance, proven industry standards, general code compliance, structural seismic zone parameters for design, energy code compliance, etc .. An eye towards facility energy efficiency, user creature comforts, and long serviceable life will be keystones for these decisions. The design narratives will become part ofthe final report for this phase of the project. E. Development of Rougb Order of Magnitude Project Cost Estimate & Budget: Upon ART receiving approval to proceed on to the next stage, ART will, with the assistance from our cost estimating consultant and technical subconsultants, develop a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) Cost estimate for the proposed project. Besides the proposed courthouse building addition, there are several other project factors that will affect anticipated costs on the project. Some of these factors include costs for hazardous materials abatement from the existing courthouse facility, demolition of the existing courthouse structure, filling the ground void left by the existing basement and development of the site for additional parking and landscaping, dressing up the shell of the west wall of the jail addition completed in 2010 previously married up to the east wall of the west wing of the courthouse, any interior remodeling of the existing jail that might be required to interface with the new courthouse addition, and any facility operational phasing impacts that could affect the overall cost of the project. This phase will also establish the overall budget for the project. The budget will include all construction hard costs (labor and materials plus the contractor's mark-up) and all know soft costs such as for AlE fees, design contingency, bidding and construction contingency, any anticipated materials and labor costs escalations, state sales tax on construction costs, fees associated with special inspections and testing required by the building code, plan review and permitting fees, any project financing expenses, and any owner project management and moving expenses. pg.3 F. Phase 2 Final Report ART will finalize and collate all Phase 2 documents and bind them into report booklets as the final product of this phase. G. Development of a Fee Proposal for Phase 3 of the Project: Based on the approval of the final product for Phase 2, ART will develop a fee proposal for Phase 3 of the project which will include development of design and construction documents, including submittal for plan review. This phase will be broken down into 3 sub-phases: 1) Schematic Design where the preliminary design drawings will be refined to further illustrate the breadth and scope of the project. An outline specification will be developed to generally illustrate those specification sections (contractual, general, and technical) needed for the project, listed by specification number and title. The cost estimate provided during the preliminary design phase will be updated, based now on more thoroughly defined material and labor calculations. 2) Design Development where the Schematic Design drawings will be further expanded to show all facets of the project. The outline specifications will be expanded to now include material and equipment design narratives for each specifications section. The Schematic Design phase cost estimate will be further updated as necessary. The project schedule will be reviewed and updated as necessary. 3) Construction Documents where the Design Development drawings and specifications will be refined and expanded to completed drawings and specifications status. Construction drawings will typically be developed to illustrate general project information (drawings index, project team member information, code review information, etc.), civil engineering drawings, landscape architectural drawings, architectural drawings, structural engineering drawings, mechanical engineering drawings, and electrical drawings. The construction specifications will be developed into two project manuals. The first manual will be for general, contractual, and technical civil, landscape, structural, and architectural divisions (typically divisions 0 through 14). The second manual will be for technical mechanical and electrical divisions. The construction documents will typically be presented to the owner at 50% completion and at 95% completion. The Design Development phase cost estimate will be further updated at the 50% CD completion stage. The project schedule will also be reviewed and updated as necessary. Additionally, as part of the Construction Documents phase, ART and its subconsultant team members will prepare a SEP A checklist and submit it to the City of Ellensburg for review. Because the anticipated construction site is already zoned for governmental development, and that on-site parking is not a requirement of this zoning classification, we do not anticipate any significant review issues. The only exception might be in addressing and mitigating by system design storm water retention and/or treatment. Lastly, as the last work scope component of the Construction Documents phase, ART will prepare all submittal documents and submit to the City of Ellensburg for plan review of the project. Upon the completion of this review, ART and its subconsultants will incorporate into the construction documents any review comments/revisions as may be required. We will propose that AlE design fees be based on the State Department of Financial Management's Guidelines for Determining AlE Fees for Public Works Building Projects current fee schedule for the project type and anticipated hard cost. The project will include Basic Services (Architectural design, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering) and Additional Services (such as for landscape architectural design, civil engineering, acoustic engineering design, low voltage/telecomm/security electronics engineering, hazardous materials investigation and abatement design services, and detailed cost estimating). Our Phase 3 fee will be presented as fixed lump sum fee. We will also propose that a reimbursable expenses allowance be included above and beyond the lump sum fee to cover travel, lodging and meals, and printing/binding expenses as may be incurred. ART will include as an attachment to our proposal our most current schedule of our hourly billable rates. Phase 2 Proposed Fec: We propose to provide the Phase 2 services on an hourly basis with a not-to-exceed fee of$132,500. This not-to-exceed fee includes a reimbursable expenses allowance of $2,585. Please see our attached fees and expenses spreadsheet itemizing the above tasks, associated hours, and resultant fees. Also please see attached fee proposal memos or letters from our subconsultant team members. We trust our proposed scope of services and accompanying proposed not-to-exceed fee are consistent with your expectations . If you find this fee proposal acceptable, we suggest that a change order to our original agreement be executed for this second phase of the project. Should you have any questions or comments on any of the above or on any of the attachments, please do not hesitate in contacting either myself or Peter. We are excited about this next phase of the project and are ready to proceed at your direction. Respectfully submitted, Kenn D.
