Ware, Leisure Services Manager SUBJECT: Comiskey Park Engagement, Design, Construction Management and Grant Administration Services Consultant Selection DATE: January 3, 2019 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this memorandum is to forward the recommended consultant to undertake Community Engagement, Design, Construction Management and Grant Administration for the redevelopment of Comiskey Park, located at 255 East 24th Street. Attached are the Request for Proposals (RFP) for these consultant services, the RFP Addendum, the proposal from the recommended consultant, and responses to follow-up questions from the recommended consultant. BACKGROUND The 3.74-acre Comiskey Park serves as the only convenient outdoor space for Dubuque's low-income Washington and North End Neighborhoods. The current Comiskey Park has a playground (circa 1994) with some older pieces, tennis court (circa 2005), softball diamond with skinned infield, 18-stall parking lot, small skate park (circa 2005), basketball court (2005), community center (2002) and open space used for soccer, rugby and community events. Existing amenities are overused and do not meet current recreation demands. The City of Dubuque recently purchased an adjacent 1 .95-acre parcel for the Bee Branch project which expanded Comiskey Park after the project completion. Expansion efforts will increase recreation access, enhance quality of life and improve health outcomes for Dubuque's disadvantaged households. An initial, limited community planning process was launched, and proposed improvements include a splash pad, additional basketball courts, all-inclusive playground equipment, shade structures, and more green space. Those improvements were proposed in the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Program grant application. A community engagement process was outlined as a very critical component of the scope of work in the RFP. The consultant was asked to develop a plan for broad community engagement into the preliminary and final designs. The plan was to measure support and commitment, identify community desires for the park, and engage residents and community partners in the process. The plan was to incorporate methods beyond typical community meetings to engage marginalized populations that use the park. The consultant was to develop bid specifications and will also be required to perform all construction testing, construction management and construction survey for this project. The consultant is also responsible for all aspects of grant administration, monitoring and reporting. DISCUSSION The City solicited proposals from qualified professional consulting firms to perform community engagement, design, construction management and grant administration services for the redevelopment of Comiskey Park, located at 255 East 24th Street. The Consultant Selection Committee consisted of: • Marie Ware, Leisure Services Manager • Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager • Jerelyn O'Connor, Neighborhood Specialist • Steve Brown, Project Manager • Steve Fehsal, Park Division Manager • Renee Tyler, Transportation Services Manager, • Dan Kroger, Recreation Division Manager • Tony Breitbach, Purchasing Coordinator. The Administrative Policy (AP) 3.17 outlines the process and procedure for contractual services procurement. The consultant selection committee followed AP 3.17 and the processes outlined. Using the evaluation criteria in the RFP, the Committee received and ranked proposals based on the firms' qualifications without consideration for cost. The Committee discussed at length the engagement processes of each firm as well as the other evaluation criteria listed in the RFP. The Committee unanimously short listed two firms to interview for clarifications from their respective proposals. As we learned from our engagement processes for the 2017 Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive Plan, we need to break the mold of past engagement and meet people where they are and in ways that they are comfortable sharing their input. Bolton and Menk and Saiki Design were chosen to interview as both outlined the strongest engagement processes and experience with similar projects using engagement techniques. The fees were opened after the selection of the top two. After the interview, the Committee unanimously agreed the engagement proposal and techniques brought by Saiki Design aligned best with the goals and scope outlined in the RFP. The Comiskey Park neighborhood is Dubuque's most diverse neighborhood, and an inclusive, extensive outreach to traditionally under-served residents is extremely 2 important to the success of this project. A review of their proposal shares how they will meet people where they are using a variety of inethods. Comiskey Park redevelopment is to reflect the values of the community which makes quality and diverse public participation and input essential to the process. The final plan is to reflect the input received from inclusive outreach to a diverse and comprehensive representation of the Dubuque community including traditionally under-represented groups. Comiskey Park is the only convenient outdoor space for Dubuque's historic Washington and North End Neighborhoods. Many residents in these neighborhoods are low to moderate income and are diverse racially and ethnically compared to the city as a whole. Minority rates in the census tracts surrounding the park are 25 — 31°k compared to 9.5°k in Dubuque. This requires us to do engagement different than we have before. Saiki Design from Madison has been working with the City of Dubuque on the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project. They have teamed up with IIW Engineers and Surveyors of Dubuque, Urban Assets of Madison, and BrandNu Design from Detroit. Urban Assets brings on the ground experience in working in the City of Madison assisting in meeting goals of city departments' equity plans. The methods described are ones the Committee feels can be tailored well to this planning and engagement effort in Dubuque. The inclusion of Michael Ford of BrandNu Design adds another dimension of engagement. He is known as the Hip Hop Architect and uses music and other forms of expression to really change up engagement and attract persons whom typically are not engaged into community outreach. The Consultant Selection Committee recommends the full Saiki Design team based on the following qualifications that ranked the team as the #1 choice: The team has a high level of professional competence and a proven track record in the preparation of park redevelopment plans for similar projects due to: • Qualifications and experience of Saiki Design and their subconsultants. Professional expertise and technical abilities of the project team members. The successful track records of the firms' experience working together. Experience of the Saiki Design team working on municipal park projects. Experience with grant administration of grant funding sources listed in this RFP. • The high quality and completeness of the team's written proposal. The proposal clearly demonstrated understanding of the City's overall objectives in the preparation of the Comiskey Park — Engagement, Design, Construction Management and Grant Administration Services. 3 • The team's design approach/methodology in completing scope of services such as: Grasp of project requirements and level of interest in the project. Creativity and problem-solving ability. ConsultanYs demonstrated initiative, motivation and knowledge of Dubuque. • The team's demonstrated experience with developing and implementing an inclusive community engagement process, especially with marginalized populations. Their experience in Madison using that City's Racial Equity and Social Justice Initiative to optimize public participation for the James Madison Park project is an excellent example. The City of Dubuque received a total of seven proposals. MSA Professional Services proposal was deemed non-responsive and thus was not considered. The remaining six firms and their associated costs are as follows: Firm Cost Bolton & Menk $ 185,672 Fehr Graham $ 147,125 HBK Engineering $ 97,673 JBC Jeffrey L. Bruce & Company $ 113,580 RDG Planning & Design $ 236,989 Salkl Deslgn $ 197,466 + alternate PARKitecture Workshop&site top$8,614 Timeframe Bolton & Menk and Saiki Design each said they could meet the timeframes outlined in the RFP which would have construction near completion at the end of 2019. During the interviews of each firm as the Committee was discussing the engagement processes and period with the firms, it became clear to do engagement in the period of January through March was less than ideal. Consensus was that it is best to have time to listen and engage, and then come back to citizens to refine the designs so the participants can see their ideas come to life in a proposal. They take greater ownership and feel their input is valued and important. The consultants also shared that being able to attend already scheduled events and activities allows for engagement with people in places they come to and feel comfortable in. We know Comiskey Park starts to come alive as those nice days of spring start and is very busy after school and through the summer. Many events and activities happen throughout the summer season in Comiskey Park that could have very positive impacts to an engagement process. Another point brought forward by the firms was that competitive bidding would be better if a project like this was bid in January of 2020 versus June of 2019. It was acknowledged that a partial construction could potentially happen in 2019 depending upon the outcomes of the community engagement. 4 Due to this input, most specifically as it relates to neighborhood outreach, getting authentic engagement, and building trust with those engaged through preliminary and final designs, the Committee recommends negotiating a timeframe with the selected firm to allow for spring and summer engagement activities with work to bid as appropriate later in 2019 and early in 2020. Completion would likely then be set for late summer or early fall of 2020. Planning Services Manager Laura Carstens reviewed the Land & Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Grant requirements and this timeframe is acceptable to meet grant requirements of completion by December 31 , 2020. RECOMMENDATION The Consultant Selection Committee recommends Saiki Design as the consultant to provide Comiskey Park Engagement, Design, Construction Management and Grant Administration. BUDGETIMPACT The City of Dubuque was awarded a $508,000 Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Program grant.

All of this gives us the ability to hit the ground running on the project, engage stakeholders, and use a myriad of visual communication tools to bring ideas and concepts to life. This project can be built on the shoulders of your specific community priorities, establish a neutral ground for neighborliness and become an enduring reflection of the community of Dubuque.

Urban Assets is committed to an innovative, inclusive, and comprehensive community engagement process that will bring together current and future park users of all ages, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds, including under-represented groups, to create a revitalized Comiskey Park which is both a destination for the community and improves the quality of life for residents of the surrounding neighborhood. The community engagement strategy and process for Comiskey Park will be designed around the unique needs, issues, and opportunities of the surrounding neighborhood and the Dubuque community at large. Outreach, events, activities, and information will be tailored to engage the various stakeholders in ways that are accessible, meaningful, and fun. In orderto maximize success, the community engagement strategy will remain fluid and flexible with changes and improve- ments to be incorporated as needed. Just asthe redesign of Comiskey Park will weave the park togetherwith Bee Branch Creek and the Heritage Trail, the goal of the community engagement process will be to knit together the values of the various stakeholders, community-wide and neighborhood-based, in order to create a space that can be shared by all. 1 . Full day of confidential interviews and focus groups to gain an understanding of the community including current park use; issues and opportunities related to park amenities among a diverse range of users; and identify partners for the community engagement process. Participants will include representatives from a broad demographic of park users, including local neighborhoods and broader city organizations (e.g., local civic associations, recreation clubs, church groups, institutions and nonprofits). 2. Two (2) public meetings that will involve a mix of interactive discussions, hands-on/workshop-style idea generation activities, visual preference activities and on-site tours. 3. One (1) community picnic to engage neighbors from the surrounding North End and Washington neighborhoods as well as community-wide park stakeholders. 4. One (1) online survey developed in coordination with the City of Dubuque to reach North End stakeholders and the broad community, as well as those who are unlikely to attend public meetings due constraints. 5. Project Facebook Page to provide ongoing engagement and project updates. 6. Report presentation to the Parks and Recreation Commission to provide an overview of the information and feed- back gathered through the community engagement process. 7. Community-wide information distribution in partnership with City of Dubuque Leisure Services Department, using press releases, email blasts, informational fliers, web content and social media throughout the master planning process to inform the public and drive high levels of participation among diverse stakeholders. 8. Consultant work sessions with City staff to coordinate upcoming events and review project progress Based on the anticipated budget, Urban Assets has outlined a process that can achieve the goals of the city with regards to engaging the community. We have also listed additional services that would enhance the process and provide oppor- tunities for more robust engagement, should the city so chose. Meeting Materials Urban Assets will work closely with city staff and other members of the consultant team to develop meeting agendas, prepare minutes, and prepare presentations, handouts and other materials necessary to ensure the success of all meet- ings. This includes all meetings with the public, park users, stakeholder groups, city staff and other agencies. Meeting Coordination The Leisure Services Department will be responsible for coordinating and scheduling all public meetings, interviews, and focus groups. This responsibility includes outreach to stakeholders, selecting and reserving meeting spaces, and organizing invitations. The consultant team will facilitate and prepare all materials and notes for these meetings and will assist with the outreach where necessary. 8 / I I � I SCOPE OF SERVICES � 4.3 Community Engagement, Continued PEOPLE� LAND� PLACE Task 1: Communitv Stakeholder Interviews and Focus Groups IFull Dav1 Urban Assets will facilitate a day of confidential interviews and focus groups with leadership from community groups from both within the surrounding neighborhood as well as the overall community. The purpose of the confidential interviews and focus groups is to understand current four-season use of the park; identify issues and opportunities related to park amenities; and learn participant views on issues such as accessibility, perception of the park as a safe and welcoming community space; and to identify community partners for the public engagement activities. Invitations will be determined in consultation with city staff and may include representatives from: 1. Neighborhood association(s) '� 2. Sports leagues —`'�� ' � � 3. Dubuque Bike Coop � 4.

The team will work with city staff to develop and finalize the meeting formats, materials, presentations and outreach strategies.All public meetings for the Comiskey Park design will involve education and interaction designed to stimulate thoughtful discussion, connections among participants, creative brainstorming, and positive investment in project outcomes. Example activities include educational presentations, games, worksheets, large- and small-group discussions, mapping, drawing, and prioritization exercises. Agendas: People work best and have fun when they can actively discuss, share, and learn from one another. Meeting agendas will be crafted to ensure that the input generated supports the planning process, and that every participant is empowered to learn and contribute. Logistics: Meetings will be held in welcoming community spaces that are walkable, ADA accessible, and connected to Jule routes. Light refreshments will be provided. RSVPs will be tracked (not required), using Eventbrite links distributed with all announcements and invitations. Inclusivity:Announcements will communicate that meetings are inclusive to all, regardless of age, race, gender, socio- economic categories, or prior experience with planning processes. 1. Winter � Meeting #1 — Kickoff Meeting & Planning Workshop This meeting will be used to introduce the Comiskey Park design project, summarize "what we know," including the his- torical background and planning research done to-date, and gather feedback on community needs, interests, concerns, and values. This event will include an interactive, hands-on portion that engages community members in collaborative group design of their"ideal" Comiskey Park. 2. Spring � Meeting #2 — Draft Master Planning Presentation This meeting will be used to present and gather community feedback on the draft park design. Participants will be engaged in interactive discussions in a workshop-style setting to gather substantive and constructive feedback on the draft design. 9 / I I � I SCOPE OF SERVICES � 4.3 Community Engagement, Continued PEOPLE� LAND� PLACE Task 3: Communitv Workshop Picnic The consultantteam will hold a communityworkshop picnicto engage neighborhood stakeholders, including marginalized populations in the surrounding North End and Washington neighborhoods. Food has always been a way to bring people together and it remains a powerful community engagement tool. Our team has found that informal settings, compliment- ed by food, is an effective and worthwhile strategy for engaging diverse voices. Due to the desire and need to promote equity and inclusion as part of this process, the team believes that meeting the neighborhood "where they are" is crucial, however, the community workshop picnic will still be open to the Dubuque community at large. 1. Spring 2019 � Community Workshop Picnic (location adjacent to the park) The community workshop picnic will be used to engage neighbors of all ages, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds, in a fun and informal setting. Participants will be asked about the community's needs, interests, concerns, and values at a variety of design stations. Food will be served and participants will be encouraged to work at their own pace. The com- munity workshop picnic will leverage the project team's expertise and experience to develop a mix of interactive exercises that will stimulate thoughtful discussion, relationship building among participants, creative brainstorming, and positive investment in project outcomes. We know that people work best when they can actively discuss, share, and learn from one another while having fun. Task 4: Online Survev The consultant team will work the City staff to design and administer a digital community survey. The purpose of this survey will be to identify the specific needs, opportunities and constraints for Comiskey Park. Survey questions will be designed so that responses will help to guide the design of, and programming within, the new park. In addition to civic and business leaders, and neighborhood residents, the survey will seek engagement from elementary students, teens, parents and seniors. The consultant team will monitor participation and results, and provide analysis of data in a survey summary report. Task 5: Proiect Facebook Paae The consultant team will work with City staff to develop a project Facebook page. The purpose of this page will be to provide a platform for ongoing engagement, to promote upcoming events, and share project information. The consultant team will work with City staff to create regular questions for the site to engage the community in an ongoing conversation. The site will be operated by the consultant team. Task 6: Report Presentation to the Parks and Recreation Commission Upon completion of all public engagement outreach activities, and with final review and input from the City staff, the consultant team will compile a comprehensive summary of findings report to inform the design and programming for Comiskey Park and will present the results in front of the Parks and Recreation Commission. Task 7: Information Distribution The consultant team will develop outreach information regarding the project for community organizations, partners and advocates. This information will be used to inform the public about the process and drive high levels of participation in the community survey and public meetings among diverse stakeholders. City staff will be responsible for the distribution and promotion of project materials. Every effort should be made to ensure that information is posted and communicated properly to engage a broad range of community members. Task 8: Consultant Work Sessions The consultant team will meet regularly with City staff in person or via conference call to discuss project updates and to coordinate upcoming events. The team will facilitate, and prepare materials and minutes for the following meetings with city staff and appropriate regulatory agencies. These meetings will also allow staff to review design considerations for Comiskey Park. 10 / I I � I SCOPE OF SERVICES � 4.3 Community Engagement, Continued PEOPLE� LAND� PLACE � r�• Hip Hop PARKitecture Workshop at Commu- " y � nitv Picnic Overview _ " Urban Assets has recently worked with Michael �' Ford, founder of BrandNu Design, on successful, . diversity-focused community engagement events 4 � � � for both the City of Madison Park and Open Space Plan, and the James Madison Park Master Plan. � ;- If engaged in the Comiskey Park design process, Mike will use his unique approach to design-based •�� , � community engagement to develop, promote and � lead a kid-focused community workshop.

This is to help answer questions that emerged after review and discussion of your proposal. Please respond in writing by Friday, December 7 at 4:45 p.m. Public Engagement Please describe in detail how you and your team will engage with the local residents in the neighborhood of the park and the larger Dubuque community regarding the project. 1. Include the name and qualifications of the team member who will be handling these aspects of the project scope. Zia Brucaya will lead public engagement throughout the Comiskey Park project. Zia is a senior planner with over seven years of experience implementing grassroots planning and public engagement processes with communities of all sizes. Most recently, Zia has managed public engagement for the City of Madison Monroe Street Reconstruction, City of Madison Park and Open Space Plan 2018-2022, and James Madison Park Master Plan and Shelter Design (ongoing). For additional qualifications, visit page 18 of the project team's proposal. 2. Explain all engagement processes in detail and whom would lead each. Community outreach and engagement for Comiskey Park will be implemented through a mix of tools and approaches designed to collect input from a diverse cross-section of stakeholders by race, age, ability and gender. These tools include a community workshop dinner, an online survey, and targeted focus groups. Our goal will be to encourage and amplify traditionally underrepresented voices to ensure that the Comiskey Park plan reflects the diversity of interests and needs of residents within the City of Dubuque. The neighborhood immediately surrounding Comiskey Park is home to a predominantly low-income, minority demographic, meaning that engagement strategies must be tailored and approachable to be successful. In order to achieve a plan that benefits a broad spectrum of the population, reflects the needs of the neighborhood and broader community, and meaningfully includes people of color and other marginalized populations, the engagement process will focus on reaching community members "where they are," including online, at the park, and through targeted conversations designed to plug into existing community gatherings. 3. Please discuss the purpose and hopeful outcomes of each engagement process. Results from the engagement tools will be extensively documented, reviewed and categorized to inform the development of the Comiskey Park plan. A summary tool that quantifies input to demonstrate shared community goals and desires will be updated over time and used in an iterative process to refine the new park plan. Urban Assets used a similar tool for the James Madison Park Master Plan process, which demonstrated a strong community desire to reimagine the shelter and improve access to the shoreline, and directly influenced the final plan recommendations. 4. Discuss how the input will be incorporated in to the project. We will communicate results comprehensively to our design team and city staff. 5. Address the diversity of the team that would be involved in the engagement � process(es). �, Our team is uniquely qualified to lead an inclusive and comprehensive community engagement process. Urban Assets is a Wisconsin-certified woman-owned business enterprise (WBE), Saiki Design is a Wisconsin-certified minority-owned business enterprise (MBE), and while Mike Ford's BrandNu Design is not a certified MBE, his values of promoting diversity and inclusion will bring an important insight to this project. Together, our project team will draw on personal experience and insight to drive a diverse and comprehensive engagement process. 6. Discuss the diversity of population and methods used to reach those populations. We will seek to address known inequities in typical planning processes by reaching out to a variety of stakeholders and partners at a variety of times and locations. Children are major users of our parks, but they rarely have a voice in future decision making. As such, we highly recommend the inclusion of Mike Ford, AIA, who has successful led diversity-focused community engagement events for both the City of Madison Park and Open Space Plan, and the James Madison Park Master Plan. Mike will develop, promote, and lead a kid-focused community workshop that is highly interactive and hands-on to encourage children from the surrounding neighborhoods and elementary schools to engage in the Comiskey Park design process. For more details about Mike Ford, visit page 11 of the projecfi team's proposal. 7. Outline what you would expect from the city representatives (if anything) to make for a successful engagement process for this project. City staff will be involved tr�roughout and will be responsible for coordinating and scheduling all public meetings, interviews, and focus groups. It is also important that key city staff be available to attend all public meetings and the community picnic in order to build greater community trust and understanding of design opportunities, challenges, and the project as a whole. For more details about the meeting materials and coordination, visit page 8 of the project team's proposal. 8. How will your process consider equity? See above. 9. Share specific examples of successful engagement projects and particularly any specific park projects like the Comiskey project proposed. See above; e 10. We shared a timeframe to complete this project. If you were given extra time in the engagement period of time you outlined in your proposal, would you and/or how would you change what you have proposed? If given additional time, the project team would recommend that meetings be held at Comiskey Park during the summer to fully leverage the value of ineeting community members "where they are." For more details about the engagement process, visit pages 8-10 of the project team's proposal. We will be happy to discuss our community engagement process in more detail on Tuesday, Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Please provide your team's grant management and permitting experience working specifically on projects funded by LWCF. Include the name and qualifications of the team member(s) who will be handling this aspect of the project scope. Rebecca de Boer of Saiki Design will be responsible for all aspects of the LWCF grant management process, in collaboration with Abbie Moilien as Principal and Project Manager. Although Rebecca has not specifically worked on the grant management aspect of projects funded by LWCF, she provides technical writing and management expertise across all types of projects at Saiki Design. Her work ranges from contributing to Environmental Impact Assessment reports to technical specification writing to authoring master plans and executive summary reports. Rebecca has strong written and verbal skills and a rigorous approach to documentation that will undoubtedly translate to the undertaking of this task. IIW, P.C. also has experience with LWCF grant administration gained while working through the implementation of the master plan at the EB Lyons Interpretive Area Addition project. Julie Neebel, of IIW, P.C., assisted City staff with fulfilling the grant requirements to allow reimbursement of the grant funds to the City. In addition, Marc Ruden, of IIW, P.C., frequently assists City's to ensure compliance with grant requirements. Both Julie and Marc will be available to assist Saiki Design, providing insight and context for the grant requirements and process for the duration of the project. Challenges Drawing from your experience completing similar projects, what challenges has the City or the RFP specifically not anticipated, if any? The grani application was based on a park program that had limited public engagement. As we hear from the public, if the program or priorities evolve differently, there may be impacts to the budget, LWCF grant agreement and the preconception of the park. We do not see this as a difficult design challenge, and the public engagement and design process we have proposed will allow those modifications to be transparent and built upon community consensus. We understand that the park building is to remain. As the park is expanded to newly acquired property arranging new activities with convenient access to restrooms in the existing building will likely be a priority. Other support facilities such as drinking fountains, remote sheltered seating and gathering areas might be part of the alternative exploration. These have cost implications. As the park expands in space and program, and at the head of the Bee Branch Corridor, will the intensity of use require additional parking, and/or can pedestrian, bicycle and transit connection enhancements mitigate that need? Best Outcomes Share what practices or alternative you would recommend to reach the best outcomes for the project described in the RFP. We have provided a public engagemenfi process designed to reach a broad constituency, with special attention to potentially under-represented groups. We feel this is particularly important given the park location. We are creative thinkers by nature, supported by our business model and imbedded into our practice. It allows us to optimize results on all our projects. It is what makes us unique in the market. We feef we are uniquely qualified to synthesize information from the public, staff, ofher stakeholders for best results.

A community engagement process is an important part of the scope of work. The consultant will develop a plan for broad community engagement into the preliminary and final designs. The plan needs to measure support and commitment, identify community desires for the park, and engage residents and community partners in the process. The plan should incorporate methods beyond typical community meetings to engage marginalized populations that use the park. Comiskey Park redevelopment must reflect the values of the community which makes quality and diverse public participation and input essential to the process. Plans must reflect outreach to a diverse and comprehensive representation of the Dubuque community including traditionally under-represented groups. The consultant will develop bid specifications and will also be required to perform all construction testing, construction management and construction survey for this project. The consultant will also be responsible for all aspects of grant administration, monitoring and reporting. The City of Dubuque was awarded a $508,000 Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Program grant. The National Park Service grant is managed through the lowa Department of Natural Resources. The grant and agreement are located on the city FTP site at https://citvofdubuque.sharefile.com/d- sca9e5425654471 eb. The city has budgeted a match of the grant of$693,277 in six capital improvement project budgets. The total project will be $1 ,201 ,277. Improvements are listed in the attached grant application and agreement. The consultant will be expected to handle all aspects of grant administration. The current Comiskey Park has a playground (circa 1994) with some older pieces, tennis court (circa 2005), softball diamond with skinned infield, 18-stall parking lot, small skate park (circa 2005), basketball court (2005), community center (2002) and open space used for soccer, rugby and community events. 2.0 PROJECT OBJECTIVES The City is seeking a qualified consultant to design preliminary and final plans for Comiskey Park Redevelopment based upon community engagement and in compliance with LWCF ORLP grant. The selected consultant will administer the project from start to grant administration, construction management to construction inspection and survey. The selected consultant will be expected to complete the contracted scope of work to meet the specified timeframe for the design goal and provide the professional services necessary for the project to proceed through award of contract, construction and project closeout. Page 2 of 28 The selected consultant will be expected to complete the contracted scope of work within the timeframe, under the general direction and coordination of the city's Leisure Services, Engineering and Planning Departments as authorized by the City Council. ENGAGEMENT The selected consultant will be responsible for developing and implementing a robust, creative, and inclusive plan for engagement. The process must be interesting, meaningful and relevant to residents. The engagement plan must at a minimum involve the following: 1 . Develop and implement an engagement process at the onset of and throughout the project. The purpose of the process will be to inform and solicit input from residents of the goals of Comiskey Park redevelopment and how the park and planning affects those residents in their everyday lives. The project must also inform residents of the importance of participation as well as opportunities for participation throughout the duration of the project. 2. Develop and implement a plan for creative, diverse, and meaningful community engagement especially for the Comiskey Park service area and including the entire community. The consultant will develop a schedule and input opportunities which, at a minimum, address the channels for public engagement and communication. The consultant will be responsible for designing and facilitating the events and public input instruments and collecting and distilling all information for use in the park redevelopment plan. 3. The plan should outline specific outreach strategies, marketing tactics, and engagement tools and events ensuring representative feedback from the whole community — all ages, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds. This process should involve reaching out to community organizations, stakeholders, neighborhood associations, residents and other traditionally under-represented groups. GOALS Below are the goals for the redevelopment of Comiskey Park: • Space has an identifying iconic component or sense of place created specific to Comiskey Park • Complement Bee Branch Creek Greenway but not duplicate • Create a connection to the Bee Branch Creek Greenway, and the Heritage Trail Network going north through North End Neighborhood. • Create a space designed as urban park • Decrease perception of fear of neighborhood through lighting and other enhancements • Incorporate safety throughout the park • Encourage park use from sun up to sun down • Encourage neighbor meeting neighbor • Attractive to persons of variety of cultural backgrounds • Accessibility (ADA compliance) increased to today's standards • Sustainability built in throughout the redevelopment • Proactively accommodate and encourage all forms of transportation (walking, biking, bus, boarding, etc.) yet accommodate vehicle parking to support park activities.

Information from References SELECTED CONSULTANT - FEE NEGOTIATION PROCESS Upon the completion of the evaluation of the proposals, the RFP Selection Committee will recommend to the City Manager or City Council, the awarding of a contract to the highest ranked Consultant. The Selection Committee will also request authority to negotiate with the recommended Consultant a final scope of work and fee structure for the project. Page 15 of 28 After authority is granted to negotiate an agreement and execute a contract with a Consultant, the Consultant shall prepare an industry standard Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to reflect the Firm's approach to the completion of the project. The WBS, at a minimum, should include work tasks for each of the components outlined in the RFP, a separate line item for each deliverable, and list project management as a separate task. No individual task on the WBS shall have a total value exceeding $10,000. The Consultant shall indicate in the WBS the work tasks that will be completed by City staff. The format of the WBS shall summarize the fixed fee for each task listed, plus individually list in separate section any associated reimbursable expenses that would specifically relate to this project. A sample format of a WBS can be obtained from the City if desired. Once the selected Consultant has prepared the WBS, the City and the Consultant will meet and the final scope of work for the project will be negotiated by joint revision to the WBS in order to best meet the goals of the project while considering available funding. During the negotiation process, tasks to be completed by City staff, work reassignment to different project team members, and the addition or elimination of tasks may be modified on the WBS in order to achieve the best overall results for project. The selected Consultant shall be responsible for updating the WBS to reflect any changes that were agreed to during negotiations. After the final scope of services has been determined, a design fee has been negotiated, and the WBS has been finalized, the Consultant shall incorporate the WBS into the contract documents being prepared for signature. If a contract satisfactory and advantageous to the City can be negotiated at a price considered fair and reasonable, the award shall be made to that offerer. Otherwise, negotiations with the offerer ranked first shall be formally terminated and negotiations commenced with the Consultant ranked second, and so on until a contract can be negotiated that is acceptable to the City. Upon the successful completion of contract negotiations, the selection committee shall recommend that the City Manager execute a contract with the successful Consultant. The City Manager will in turn make a decision to execute the contract or request the Dubuque City Council make a final determination to award and execute the contract with a Consultant. Pavment for Work: The Consultant awarded the contract shall be paid once monthly. The invoiced amount shall be based on the Earned Value of the percent work completed as reported on the most recently updated and submitted WBS.

Washington Street has been removed already. It does not need to be vacated as a part of this project. The photo below shows the street has been removed as it used to be located parallel the fence line/tree line. �I . .,_ . .... ��.

There would be no platting or rezoning necessary as a part of this project. All areas of the project are city owned and controlled. 1 3) Has it been formally determined that the project is categorically excluded from the environmental review process? No. 4) Will the consultant be responsible for completing the Section 106 review process on behalf of the IDNR? Yes. 5) Have any specific park programming determinations been made by the City, aside from the community desires that will be determined through the input process? (i.e. the summer basketball league that is currently being funded with CDBG.) The only specifics were listed in the grant application. 6) Could you share some examples of the perception of fear within the neighborhood and/or related to the park which the consultant may need to address through the public engagement process? Is it a perception of crime or something else? Because it is perception this is difficult to answer. Many people do not believe the perception. For an example, when the Leisure Services Department offers recreational programming at the site people have shared they would register but they are afraid to go to "that neighborhood". 7) Has the City identified specific marginalized populations within the service area? And can they share any information about how these groups may be best approached for input and engagement during this park redevelopment process? We have not identified the specific marginalized population although we know many live in this neighborhood and understand the demographics of the neighborhood. It is up to the consultant to determine through this process their best proposed approach(es). 8) Will you directly email addendums to those who have submitted questions to help address acknowledgement of receipt in coordinating delivery around the holiday? Yes. 9) With respect to budget the RFP notes 1 .2 million, while the grant documents reflect this total, it includes cost for property acquisition and demo. Does the remaining project budget hold at the 1 .2 or should some costs to date be removed? We also feel the budget for lighting may be less than desired and wonder if the investment in a rubber surface was figured in the original budget. 2 There have been no costs to date for the project. The grant was turned in with its budget at the time. The property acquisition and demo were a part of the Bee Branch project budget. There is current $1 ,201 ,277 available between the grant and the city's capital improvement budget. The capital improvement budget has six different projects outlined. The consultant should think of this money not related specifically to the six projects but to the entire park redevelopment. To answer the specific question, the rubberized surface was included in the budget (and would be in this project) for the capital improvement related to playground. 10) On the schedule side the grant documents show a two year time line while the RFP request the entire project be complete in one year. To meet the objective of stakeholder involvement and design an iconic park, we feel the schedule in the grant application is more appropriate, however, if completion time is a higher priority, adjustments may be made. The consultant would need to outline their proposed timeframe based upon each of the requirements. The City would like to see progress toward at least part of the construction related to an approved plan in 2019. 11) The schedule seems aggressive given all of the public engagement— substantial completion of design/bid docs 12/31/2019? Can you elaborate on those expectations? See answerabove. 12) Are you looking for a completed contract or just a contract template? We are looking for your contract template that would be adapted for this project. 13) The survey information provided by the City has been limited in the past. Would you like a site survey as a line item in our proposal? The city will provide what it has for the site. If the consultant believes based on possible development of the site a survey is needed, it should be included. 14) Who/what is the City Design Review team? The City's Design Review team and process are detailed at http://www.cityofdubuque.orq/354/Development-Services. Scroll down to Development Review Process. 15) Who presents to Park & Rec Commission and City Council? Who should plan to attend and how many times would we expect to attend? 3 The principal of the project would present to the Commission and City Council. Typically, a project would present the master plan developed for recommendation for approval by the commission and approval by the City Council. The project once designed would then require council approval of bids and specifications and award. It is anticipated that the consultant would attend the award meeting. 16) Do you want permitting fees in the proposal? Yes. 17) What is the expectation for reimbursement request frequency for the grant? A reimbursement request to allow receipt of funds prior to fiscal year end (June 30) would be needed and likely two other requests. 18) Is the park shelter excluded? The enclosed building on the site (known as the Comiskey Building) would not be a part of the project. 19) Can you send us the link/sign-in for the City's FTP site, the link isn't working for us in the RFP. https://citvofdubuque.sharefile.com/d-sca9e5425654471 eb 20) For Scope 4.8: This is usually performed by the contractor, please advise if the City is looking for us to include a construction management company. You should include a contractor to pertorm this service if your company does not offer the services outlined in 4.8. 21) For Scope 4.9.1 : Perform Construction Staking � Are you requesting a design/build firm or a Construction Manager/General Contractor to be included part of the team? Or is this only referencing we need to have a survey completed as part of our scope before beginning the construction documents? Or should the A/E firm provide the survey for the As-built drawings? You should include a contractor to pertorm this service if your company does not offer these services outlined in 4.9.1 . 4
