'i l 2007 The purpose of this memorandum is to request authorization to contract with Veenstra & Kimm / JJR, to provide streetscape, street and utility design for the public infrastructure improvements associated with the Historic Millwork District. BACKGROUND The Historic Millwork District Master Plan was adopted by the City Council in February, 2009. The District has over 1 million square feet of underdeveloped space that has the potential to be a neighborhood where citizens can live, work, and play in a common area. The Master Plan features Green Streets: rebuilding the district streets with high-quality streetscapes, modern utilities, on-street parking, artistic elements, and stormwater management features. The design of the project needs to strongly incorporate sustainable design elements including the re-use of materials. All of the design elements need to follow the guidelines set forth in the Historic Millwork District Master Plan. The project will include the reconstruction of the street pavement and curbs, reconstruction of sanitary and storm sewers, and installation of new watermain in the Millwork District. This project would also provide for infrastructure support for a district wide energy plant. The design also needs to develop a new model for street construction in accordance with sustainable principles. The streetscape improvements will involve the installation of new street lighting, including the option of sustainable street lights, installation of sustainable sidewalk systems, and installation of landscaping, footprints or stations for public art, and other streetscape amenities or elements that promote sustainability and complement the urban environment.

City of Dubuque, Iowa Page 10 Historic Millwork District Street & Utility Improvements City of Dubuque, Iowa Veenstra & Kimm, Inc. completed a detailed and thorough construction staging plan for the project to maintain traffic on two of the streets and pedestrian movements at all times. The ability to work with business owners, patrons and the contractor's staff was critical to the project's continued progress and the ability to keep businesses open. ~~ _ ~ The majority of the streets are 60 feet wide with 45 _; ~ degree angled parking with 10-foot walks. One of the ='_- ~~~= streets was 75 feet wide with steps on the one side of the - street making access for pedestrians a challenge. Veenstra &Kimm, Inc. devised a solution that narrowed the street by 5 feet and eliminated the steps while improving drainage in the area. Veenstra &Kimm, Inc. led an extensive task force input process and participated in one on one property and business owner meetings to inform them of the coming activities and to help establish expectations of the coming construction season. This forum also gave citizens a safe method to voice individual business or property needs or requests for the design team and the City to hear and contemplate. Veenstra &Kimm, Inc. is also providing construction services that include administration, resident review and close-out services. The project is being funded by City GO bonds, Federal STP and Enhancement funds through the Iowa Department of Transportation. Veenstra &Kimm, Inc. was able to prepare the construction documents in a time frame that allowed for the advancement of the letting by one month from the original schedule.

In early 2001 Veenstra & Kimm, Inc. was retained by the City of Lisbon to complete the design of a beautification improvement project for the downtown area. The City of Lisbon had prioritized improvements to the downtown area as a part of its five year capital improvement program. The improvements were designed primarily to address streetscaping and beautification along the downtown area. The streetscape design developed by Veenstra & Kimm, Inc. was developed in close coordination with the City of Lisbon and the business owners located along the project corridor. The project involved limited street improvements and significant focus on streetscape amenities. The street improvements focused primarily on milling the existing pavement and then constructing a hot mix asphalt overlay in conjunction with improved crosswalks utilizing colored stamped concrete. The City established an overall project budget of $400,000. Bids were received in the spring of 2001. Due primarily to timing issues the City received only one bid which was determined to be unacceptable. The City subsequently rebid the project with a considerable cost reduction. The contract price for the project is $318,000.

Important district investments have been made in riverfront parks and multi-story industrial buildings have been adaptively re-used for a mix of office, residential, retail, and restaurants. JJR worked with stakeholders to develop coordinated recommendations for the continuing transition of this industrial area to a lively urban mixed- use district. Future land use and density patterns; circulation, parking and Streetscape concepts were identified. JJR used 3D modeling to illustrate alternative approaches to building height, upper story massing, and form-based standards for improving walkability through the building placement and design. Streetscape concepts focused on greening the urban environment, maximizing on-street parking, and incorporating urban stormwater management strategies. Capitol West/Block 51 Redevelopment -Madison, Wisconsin '~ I JJR provided urban design and site engineering for the Capitol West redevelopment project on Block 51, a prime downtown Madison location.

The State Street Parking Lot, located in downtown Battle Creek, was slated for reconstruction due to deteriorated pavement and aging site features. Realizing that this project would provide an opportunity to incorporate an innovative approach to stormwater management as part of the reconstruction, the City hired JJR to design a sustainable parking lot demonstrating their commitment to water quality in the Battle Creek River Watershed. The State Street Parking Lot Site Improvements included milling and replacement of the existing asphalt pavement, construction of two bioretention basins to capture and treat stormwater runoff, reuse of existing lighting, new lighting and new landscaping. The City applied for and received partial funding for the project through the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality's Clean Michigan Initiative Clean Water Fund grant program. The City will be developing an interpretive program to educate the public on their responsibility as residents and stewards of the watershed. This will include educational signage, educational tours, a project description on the City website, and press releases.

Clearly demonstrate to the public that the project will be developed pursuant to a well executed PIP. 5. Notify the public in advance of potential impacts. Public input and involvement will be monitored as part of our project management efforts. Public input strategies and scheduling will be discussed and developed in more detail at the scoping portion of the project initiation meeting. Perhaps the most crucial of all tasks will be the monitoring and guiding of the concepd planning and design efforts. The project manager will be responsible for the ultimate success of both of these tasks. The planning process will need to be accomplished swiftly but thoroughly. The streetscaping design along with the streets and utility designs need ample time to address all potential issues and conflicts. The desired timetable of a winter letting is critical to the overall budget and schedule for the Millwork District. Engineering Analysis This task will involve several key activities. These include stormwater and sanitary sewer analysis, data collection, geotechnical investigations and historical issue identifications. City crews have completed the topographical survey. This data will be given to the design team for their use. Limits of this survey will be reviewed early to identify any possible additional efforts that may be needed. The stormwater and sanitary analysis can commence following discussions and some basic decisions based on the guidance of the Millwork District ~- ,, Master Plan and the current Downtown Design guidelines. Green design techniques will be incorporated into the districts street and utility improvements to Keep consistent with Sustainable Dubuque and the goal of Environmental Integrity. City of Dubuque, Iowa Page 22 Historic Millwork District Street & Utility Improvements ~ City of Dubuque, Iowa Sustainable Approaches to Urban Stormwater Management Recently stormwater management professionals have attempted to look at the problem from a more naturalistic approach, one which manages stormwater similarly to how nature would manage it. This means that pre-development rates of infiltration, runoff, and time of concentration area mimicked as closely as possible. Instead of large regional systems, smaller facilities manage water close to where it hits the ground. Surface conveyance is used instead of pipes, impervious surfaces are minimized, and facilities are designed with the entire watershed in mind. By replicating natural hydrologic processes, streams and waterways are kept healthy and clean with a constant ground water flow. While utilizing this approach it is essential to design for 10 and 100-year storms (what we refer to as water quantity events), and to recognize the limitations that infiltration-based systems have handling this higher volume of stormwater. However, it is critically important from a sustainability standpoint to ground your overall design on what we refer to as "water quality events." The basic concept is that +/- 90% of annual rainfall occurs in +/- 2" rain events. Our strategy is to design sustainable facilities to hold the 2" storm as close to where it falls as possible using infiltration or flow-thru planters. By doing this you are dealing with almost all of the rainfall on a site over an entire year. Managing your water-quality events as effectively as your quantity events improves overall watershed quality and creates a more sustainable system. Planter Sanitary Sewer analysis will involve the verification of sewer capacity in today's system with the expected flows from the redevelopment uses expected in the district. Capacity enhancements will be identified and phased in if deficiencies are expected. The area's water distribution system needs replacement and updating. The City's water department has a good handle on their wants and needs and will guide the team's efforts. City of Dubuque, Iowa Page 23 Historic Millwork District Street & ~.~ _ ~ Utility Improvements ~' _~ +, ~,. City of Dubuque, Iowa Geotechnical investigations will begin immediately. The identification of problematic soils in the early stages will help identify design and budget issues. The desire to incorporate the reuse of the historical bricks will need to have engineered base and drainage systems to increase durability and life expectancy of the concept. Historical review will be simultaneously accomplished with the concepd planning efforts. The fact that the Millwork District is on the National Register will require attention be paid to the details planned the techniques utilized for the redevelopment of the area. Concept/Planning The design efforts will engage all three firms of the Veenstra & Kimm project team. The concept design through final design for the street and utility improvements for the redevelopment of this historically significant area must be multi-disciplined. To ignore the district's master planning efforts for land use potentials or the required innovative engineering and urban design skills necessary to address creative traffic solutions and sustainable infrastructure would be irresponsible. The approach requires the assembly of an experienced team with portfolio depth beyond that of traditional engineering approach. The project team provides all skill sets necessary in dealing with historic structures, green urban design, vibrant streetscape design, meaningful public process, sustainable innovation and pragmatic street and utility engineering design. The effort must be inclusive gaining input from area leaders, City staff, property owners and the general public. A series of Open houses will be utilized at critical times as well as private meetings with effected parties. A minimum of three public informational meetings and two City Council working sessions will be scheduled. Regularly scheduled working meetings will be take place with the city engineer and city staff. A specific work plan for the entire project will be developed as part of the project initiation meeting.

Plans must depict constructible details that are cost effective and have final grades and street layouts that are functional and optimize streetscaping opportunities. The streetscape elements and the potential of incorporating innovative sustainable solutions in this historic urban setting are elements that will help define Dubuque as a forward thinking environmentally responsible community. The engineering design will resolve street layout and parking configurations meeting the needs for the users of the district. All recommendations will be reviewed for traffic calming potential and serviceability. Parking will need to be configured to maximize accessibility while minimizing potential conflicts. Utility design and storm conveyance will incorporate the concepts and goals of Sustainable Dubuque.

PROPOSED PROJECT SCHEDULE The City of Dubuque is looking for an early 2010 letting for the Millwork District letting. This will provide contractors the best opportunity for maximizing the construction while keeping a sharpened point on the bidding pencils. This combination will put the City in the best position for budget and schedule control for the physical improvements staying on track. Veenstra &Kimm, Inc. and its team are ready to deliver the planning and design phase in a timeframe that meets this goal. Our experience in similar districts will position the team to accomplish a thorough planning effort while creating a set of construction documents that turns creativity into reality. This catchy phrase is not just a sales pitch, but a motto our staff thrives for and aspires to every streetscape project. The key work elements identified in the scope of services become the milestone tasks for establishing our schedule. Several of the tasks will begin upon contracting and run concurrently. A couple of the tasks will be broken into subtasks and tracked individually to facilitate the management and monitoring. The following table establishes task and subtask durations, starting dates and completion dates. Several starting dates will be dependent upon either reviews by the City of Dubuque or outside agencies or completion dates of critical path tasks which precede the subject task.
