Intermodal Transportation Compus_Consultant for Design PhaseMasterpiece on the Mississippi Dubuque bierd All-America City 1 2007 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Intermodal Transportation Campus Consultant for Design Phase DATE: May 30, 2012 On March 19, 2012, the City Council authorized an RFQ for final design of the Intermodal Campus with several design and construction components. The components include: a terminal building, parking facility, bus storage facility, and passenger rail platform and rail improvements. Each of the components are in various stages of design. Some components currently do not have funding for design or construction, but are identified as add alternates to this contract. In the future should components receive funding then an amendment to the contact will be negotiated for the additional work without repeating the RFQ process. The City received four proposals in response to this RFQ and three firms were selected for interviews. Based on the various aspects related to this unique project, the committee agreed that it would be extremely important for the consultant's team to have rail expertise since the proposed Intermodal project will be designed to accommodate passenger rail service. Other factors evaluated included expertise on transit needs, parking structures and other special features that the City may desire to have incorporated into the final intermodal campus. Economic Development Director Dave Heiar recommends City Council authorization to negotiate a contract with Neumann Monson for the Multi- phased Final Design and for Construction oversight of an intermodal Transportation Campus in the Historic Millwork District. I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. Michael C.

Heiar, Economic Development Director 2 Masterpiece on the Mississippi Dubuque kard All-America City 1 2007 TO: Michael Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: David J. Heiar, Economic Development Director SUBJECT: Intermodal Transportation Campus Consultant for Design Phase DATE: May 23, 2012 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this memorandum is to seek City Council authorization to negotiate a contract with Neumann Monson for the Multi- phased Final Design and for Construction oversight of an Intermodal Transportation Campus. BACKGROUND In July 2010, the City Council hired IIW Engineers partnered with Desman Associates to complete a site selection study and environmental analysis for an Intermodal Transportation Center (ITC). The vision for the ITC is that it will support transit connections, rail connections, vehicular parking, electric vehicle charging, bicycle parking, intercity bus, a passenger waiting area, taxicab stands, public restrooms (including lockers and showers /changing areas), and a ticketing office. The consultants initially considered 11 potential sites that were quickly narrowed down to two sites. The final two sites were in the Port of Dubuque and the Historic Millwork District. IIW met with the selection committee to review the merits of each site. After weighing the pros and cons of each site, the selection committee unanimously recommended the Historic Millwork District for the Intermodal Transportation Facility. On March 7, 2011, the City Council authorized an RFP to select a consultant who would further investigate the site unknowns, and to begin the preliminary design for this facility. The scope of services includes the following: • Site Analysis • PreDesign • Preliminary Programming • Regulatory Coordination • Schematic Design • Design Development Intermodal Transportation Campus Page 2 The City received eight proposals in response to this RFP and negotiated a contract with Neumann Monson Architects of Iowa City. On March 19, 2012, the City Council authorized an RFQ for final design of the Intermodal Campus with several design and construction components. The components include: a terminal building, parking facility, bus storage facility, and passenger rail platform and rail improvements. Each of the components are in various stages of design. Some components currently do not have funding for design or construction, but are identified as add alternates to this contract. In the future should components receive funding then an amendment to the contact will be negotiated for the additional work without repeating the RFQ process. The City received four proposals in response to this RFQ from the following lead firms: Vedi Associates, Inc. Straka Johnson Architects Neumann Monson Architects Legat Architects Minneapolis, MN Dubuque, IA Iowa City, IA Moline, IL Each lead firm, proposed a team of other consultants with specific areas of expertise. A nine member committee established ranking criteria and reviewed the RFQ's. The committee included: Chandra Ravada, ECIA David Solberg, Chair— Envision 2010 Rail Passenger Initiative David Heiar, Economic Development Director Barbara Morck, Transit Director Steve Sampson Brown, Engineering Project Manager Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager Tim Horsfield, Parking System Supervisor Teri Goodmann, Assistant City Manager Bill Baum, GDDC Based on the various aspects related to this unique project, the committee agreed that it would be extremely important for the consultant's team to have rail expertise since the proposed Intermodal project will be designed to accommodate passenger rail service. Other factors evaluated included expertise on transit needs, parking structures and other special features that the City may desire to have incorporated into the final intermodal campus. The local committee narrowed the field to three firms for interviews. These firms were Neumann Monson Architects (Iowa City), Legat Architects (Moline, IL) and Straka Johnson Architects (Dubuque). Following the interviews, Neumann Monson was the first choice of the committee for the following reasons: Intermodal Transportation Campus Page 3 • Proposed a project team with intermodal experience that would address all aspects of the project, with a strong emphasis on rail connection. • Includes a local civil engineer (IIW) to be part of their team. • Have demonstrated ability to be flexible and meet tight time frames. • Demonstrated ability to scale projects to meet budgetary constraints. • Have already worked with Iowa SHPO, Region VII FTA, CN Railroad, CP Railroad, Amtrak, IDOT, and ILDOT on the initial stages of this project. Neumann Monson Architects has extensive recent experience with parking structures and multi -modal facilities across Iowa. They are currently working with the cities of Ames and Coralville on their Intermodal facilities. Their project team includes Rich & Associates, Design Engineers, and Confluence. Each of these consultants is renowned in their field of expertise. Their firms have partnered with each other on numerous occasions and the individuals from each firm have worked together on countless projects. Relatively new to their team is T.Y. Lin, the premier leader in transportation and infrastructure design, whom was selected because of their considerable knowledge in rail services. Rich & Associates located in Southfield, Missouri, is a full service parking consultant providing customized solutions for every type of parking need. Since 1963 they have developed innovative parking facilities designed to meet the specific challenges of private and public owners in the United States. The Company's experience includes the design of over 2,500 parking structures across the country and overseas, including more than 15 parking structures throughout the state of Iowa. T.Y. Lin International (Chicago), is a 28 -year old transportation firm providing engineering and planning consulting services to both the public and private sectors. TYLI's major engineering focus has been in the planning, design, and construction inspection of transportation facilities. This includes civil, structural, environmental, drainage and construction engineering for a wide variety of railroad, highway, road, airport, transit, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities, including bridges and parking lots. Their rail experience includes recent work as prime design consultant for the Metra 153rd Street Station and Parking Lot Design Services in Orland Park, Illinois and the 80th Avenue Metra Train Station in Tinley Park, Illinois. T.Y. Lin has been very instrumental in the preliminary design phase of this project to bring IADOT, ILDOT, CN, CP and Amtrak representatives to the table on a couple of occasions to discuss passenger rail service for Dubuque. The team will also include IIW Engineers. IIW was involved in the site selection process, as well as the preliminary design phase of this project. This firm is also conducting the one way to two way traffic analysis, in the Millwork District, and brings a local connection to the team. In addition, Neumann Monson Architects is recognized as the leader in sustainable design with more LEED Certified and Registered projects than any other Iowa firm. Intermodal Transportation Campus Page 4 Nearly 90% of the company's design professionals are LEED Accredited Professionals and understand the benefits that sustainable architecture provides and will design the project to be long lasting, healthful, and one that reduces operational costs. This team provides extensive experience with intermodal facilities, sustainable design, and a wide array of municipal projects. They are committed to a collaborative approach and are dedicated to providing innovative problem solving to the Dubuque Intermodal project. The entire proposal from Neumann Monson which more thoroughly describes the team is attached. References were checked on the main team members and the feedback was extremely complimentary. BUDGET IMPACT In October 2011, the City was awarded an $8 million FTA, State of Good Repair grant for the Intermodal project. The City committed a local match of $3.4 million toward this project. The contract for a consultant would be paid from these funding sources. RECOMMENDATION Based on review of the proposals, presentations, interviews and reference checks, the consultant selection committee recommends that the City negotiate an agreement and execute a contract with Neumann Monson for Final Design and Construction oversight of the Intermodal Campus. ACTION TO BE TAKEN I respectfully request that the City Council authorize City staff to negotiate an agreement with Neumann Monson for Multi- phased Final Design and Construction oversight of the Intermodal Campus. After negotiations, any agreement would be brought back to the City Council for approval. cc: Chandra Ravada, ECIA David Solberg, Chair— Envision 2010 Rail Passenger Initiative David Heiar, Economic Development Director Barbara Morck, Transit Director Steve Sampson Brown, Engineering Project Manager Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager Tim Horsfield, Parking System Supervisor Teri Goodmann, Assistant City Manager Bill Baum, GDDC Attachment F \USERS \Econ Dev \Intermodal Facility \Final Design_RFQ\20120523 Recommendation Intermodal Trans Consultant RFQ Council Memo doc NEUMANN MONSON ARCHITECTS Dubuque Intermodal Facility City of Dubuque Apn117,2012 ss �• 011100001 SS SS SS 5 ' t S51 II 1 ''S 0, s`� SOS 1 Table of Contents Letter of Transmittal Profile of Firm 1 Scope of Services 3 Project Team Qualifications Key Personnel Qualifications 5 Organization Chart 7 Consultant Firm Overviews 8 Featured Projects 10 References 13 DBE Participation 13 Quality Control & Quality Assurance 14 Understanding of Final Contract Terms 15 Certificate of Insurance 15 Proposed Project Schedule 15 Deliverables 15 Cover image Dubuque lnfermodaf Facility Rendering Dubuque Intermodal Facility > Architectural Design Services > April 17, 2012 NEUMA\ \ MO\SO\ ARCI April 17, 2012 Mr, Kevin S.

Founded as a four - person firm, we have since grown into a thriving multi- office design corporation that spans the state of Iowa. With three locations including Iowa City, Des Moines, and Sioux City, Neumann Monson Architects has produced quality architecture throughout the Midwest and the United States. Neumann Monson Architects believes client interaction is central in creating lasting architectural spaces. Through discussion and discourse, we gather insight into our client's unique vision, and work to understand all aspects of their needs. As every project is unique, we assemble teams of select consultants to best serve the variety of conditions surrounding each design. Our process is the essential ingredient for the creation of intelligent architecture that is grounded in function and enlightened by collaboration. Related Experience and Success: Neumann Monson Architects has successfully designed 12 public parking structures with Rich & Associates. These projects range from Iowa City's award - winning, historically sensitive Tower Place Multi -Use Parking Structure, to the Coralville North Ramp at the Marriott, which was designed in 90 days and constructed in 12 months. Our experience also includes two distinctly different projects for the City of Davenport, which were designed, bid, and constructed concurrently. Our multi -modal experience includes the Ames Intermodal, which started as a $48- million project but received $8- million from the FTA. Neumann Monson was able to meet 60% of the project's original program with only 16% of the original budget. In all cases we were able to provide a facility that is an important component of each community's overall economic development strategy. We are confident we can provide the same level of excellence for the City of Dubuque. Municipal Experience: We have worked with over 50 municipalities on a wide array of projects including parking structures, transit facilities, libraries, recreation and community centers, police and fire stations, public works facilities, and multi -use facilities. These municipalities include the largest cities in Iowa and projects ranging from $50,000 to $50- million.

ARCHITECTS- 9 Featured Projects Dubuque Intermodal Phase 1 Dubuque, Iowa The Dubuque Intermodal Transportation Center (DITC) will serve as a hub for numerous modes of transportation including Amtrak passenger rail, intercity bus, local and regional transit, automobiles, community and hotel shuttles, taxis, trolleys, as well as bicycles and pedestrians The Center project will be located near the Port of Dubuque, which is a $500 million transformation of industrial space to a commercial and entertainment district, and adjacent to the Historic Millwork District A $5 6 million TIGER grant is being used to design and reconstruct the street network in the Historic Millwork District The project consists of a 292 -car parking structure, a terminal building, a canopied transit hub with Amtrak connection, and a covered pedestrian bridge that connects the terminal building and parking structure The proposed material palette is respectful of the Historic Millwork District and incorporates terra cotta panels to blend with the historic brick structures Work has been developed through Design Development Ames Intermodal Ames, Iowa, Pursuing LEED Gold Certification The Ames Intermodal facility is located on Hayward Street on the west border of Campustown, a high - density mixed -use neighborhood that borders the Iowa State University campus The facility will provide parking for the neighborhood with a combination of permit and pay -on -foot spaces, in addition to providing regional bus, city bus and airport shuttle services The terminal space includes ticketing, management offices, and 24 -hour lobby and restroom facilities for off -hour use Asetback on Hayward Street allows for future retail development The ramp is designed to expand vertically or horizontally The design uses the natural slope of the site, which minimizes the overall height of the structure Cantilevered walkways along the east side provide increased safety and visibility for pedestrian, while screening parked cars from view Glass stair towers on the east and west also provide increased visibility A multi -use trail will be developed along the north side of the site and will connect to the larger city trail system Covered bike storage and bike lockers will be located at the north end of the terminal ExtenorRerrdenng from Northeast Client: City of Dubuque Completion Date: March 2012

newest parking facility serves the new hotel and convention center near Interstate 80 and is adjacent to the Iowa River, a wetlands area, and the Coralville trail system It is a cast -in- place, post tension structure which includes the ground level with two elevated levels above The facility is designed to withstand the 500 -year flood level Several measures have been taken to reduce the visual scale of the large structure The structure is sunk into the surrounding landscape so the overall profile is lessened A green screen trellis system encloses the perimeter of the structure Plantings at the base of the trellis will grow up the side to soften the appearance and mask the vehicles parked within Extended, cantilevered walkways on the east overlook the wetlands and river The facility operates with two -way traffic It is designed with one entrance and exit lane each and a third lane which can alternate as necessary The schedule for the project was aggressive with 45 days for design, 45 days for construction documents, two weeks for bidding and 12 months for construction, including complex site modifications Exfenor Rendering Client: City of Coralville Completion Date: Est

Michigan Rich &Associates recently led a team of local consultants in the design and engineering of a new 510 space parking structure in downtown Traverse City, Michigan The Old Town Parking Deck provides much needed general parking to this area of the City as well as monthly spaces to support the expansion of a local insurance company Working closely with the City, we conducted several public design charrettes to gather input from the general public and the gain support for the project Through this process several ideas were presented by the community to provide more amenities in the parking structure to support the community Our team worked quickly to provide design approaches that could accommodate these public amenities while maintaining the City's goals and budget As a result the Old Town Parking Structure features several sustainable design elements as well as functions desired by the community These features include a green roof over a portion of the roof level parking and atop the stair/ elevator towers, 18 spaces equipped with power for electrical hybrid vehicles, solar panels to generate electrical power, snow melt systems, bicycle storage in two areas, and public washrooms The parking structure is set back from the two main streets at both ends to accommodate future development of low rise commercial development The parking structure towers are designed to connect into these two buildings Dubuque Intennodal Facility > Architectural Design Services > April 17, 2012 Extenor and star tower Client: City of Terre Haute / Indiana State University

Intermodal Facility > Architectural Design Services > April 17, 2012 We focus quality control procedures on providing positive guidance to the project team, and on monitoring performance as the project work proceeds. We maintain a system of peer reviews that is comprehensive, continual, and thorough. It commences with the project planning and continues through the construction process. Quality Neumann Monson has a dedicated employee that manages quality control, specifications, and code compliance. This individual is required to be a registered architect and is responsible for reviewing every phase of every project. Our goal is to find all non - conforming items and correct them before any project is issued. Our QA /QC process includes all documentation, drawings, reports, and specifications at all phases. As the planning and design progresses, documents are continually reviewed for code compliance owner requirements, good architectural practice, bid - ability, construct - ability, and maintain - ability. Time spent on QA /QC is flexible — when project benchmarks are approaching more time will be necessary for reviews. During design development, review includes building construction elements, code and good practice, coordination with engineering, and assurance that all previous commitments are maintained. Specifications begin for materials and systems, normally in outline form. During construction documents phase, reviews vary from intermittent to continual, depending on the progress of the project. Reviews are for good construction practices and detailing, inter - disciplinary coordination, inter - architectural, interiors, and specification coordination, and general constructability. At this time, specifications are finalized. • During subsequent phases, bidding, construction, and warranty, time spent is variable depending on the issues encountered. • Throughout all phases, there is a constant review for code compliance and good practice. Cost Neumann Monson Architects will engage a cost estimator and /or contractor to provide cost estimating, scheduling, phasing, and ` constructability' consultation. This close coordination, combined with our experience on projects of this type, enables us to effectively manage the project to stay on budget. We will undertake cost control reviews on a continuous basis and communicate the results to the City of Dubuque. Schedule Neumann Monson Architects has demonstrated a history of meeting project schedules. The design team will work with the contractor to develop and achieve schedule goals and to meet critical opening dates for each project component. Each member of our team will be involved throughout the duration of the project, providing personal attention from initial project design through completion of construction. Initially, we will prepare a preliminary phased schedule for completion of work. This schedule will be prepared together with input from the Client to assure the design team meets your objectives. We will continuously monitor the schedule for compliance and provide regular reports to the City of Dubuque. David Tillotson is the individual assigned to QA/QC. We estimate his work would account for approximately 80 hours within the Design Development and Construction Document phases of work for Terminal Building and Parking Structure Tasks. If additional Tasks are funded, additional QA /QC time will be allocated.
