Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Marie L. Ware, Leisure Services Manager SUBJECT: Five Flags Theater Masonry Rehabilitation and Fire Escape Project Consultant Selection DATE: May 11, 2016 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend a consultant for the Five Flags Theater Masonry Rehabilitation and Fire Escape Project Architectural/Engineering Services contract. BACKGROUND Five Flags Theater is on the National Register of Historic Places. It is an important community treasure. The Five Flags Theater is owned by the City of Dubuque and operated on a day to day basis by SMG Management. As a part of the management agreement the City is responsible for capital improvements of Five Flags Theater. Restoration of the envelope of historic structures is important to the long term sustainability of the structure itself both inside and outside. The fire escape is a working fire escape for the theater. The project activities included creating necessary bid documents, plans and specifications for the masonry rehabilitation and fire escape project including tuckpointing of this historic structure. This work would include the inspection services to oversee the contractor chosen to do the work itself and contract administration. The work will be done in accordance with the Secretary of Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties and the National Park Service (NPS) Technical Preservation Brief No. 2 Repointing Mortar Joints in Historic Masonry Buildings. The Scope of Services was detailed in the RFP. DISCUSSION Proposals from qualified consultants to conduct the Five Flags Theater Masonry Rehabilitation and Fire Escape Project Architectural/Engineering Services proposals were received from six firms. 1 A Consultant Selection Committee reviewed the proposals. The Committee consisted of Purchasing Coordinator Tony Breitbach, Facilities Supervisor Ben Alden, Assistant Planner Dave Johnson, Building Service Manager Todd Carr, Finance and HR Supervisor Don Howes of Five Flags Center manager SMG, and myself. Independently committee members rated each of the proposals on four categories of responsiveness, quality and completeness of proposal as well as eight categories of experience and qualifications. All categories were outlined in detail in the RFP. The committee reviewed and scored the proposals without knowledge of the submitted fees. The committee based upon scores unanimously chose IIW, P.C. and Selser Schaefer Architects as their top two scores based upon the twelve categories. The costs proposals were then reviewed. Proposals were to include the cost and the expenses budget. Firm Cost Expenses Atkinson-Noland & Denver, Colorado $ 24,100 Did not include Associates, Inc. Delta 3 Engineering Platteville, Wisconsin $ 25,147 Included reimbursement sheet IIW, P.C. Dubuque, Iowa $ 36,600 Only expense would be printing costs Selser Schaefer Dubuque, Iowa $ 28,000 Not to exceed $5000 Architects Shive-Hattery Dubuque, Iowa $ 33,530 Not to exceed $1000 Strata Design Kansas City, Missouri $ 48,872 $6,089 After fees were opened it was found that the fees for Atkinson-Noland & Associates, Inc. as well as Delta 3 Engineering were lower. Both firms were scored lowest of all submissions by the committee. Atkinson sent their same Ham House proposal for the Five Flags Theater except for the cover page thus the Five Flags Theater proposal did not speak to the Five Flags project. There were other requirements also not included, leading to their low scores. Delta 3 Engineering did not address well all the scoring components as well as other proposals. RECOMMENDATION Interviews were scheduled with the two firms and were conducted. The unanimous consensus of the committee after interviews was to recommend the selection of Selser Schaefer Architects. Selser Schaefer Architects teamed with Walter Sedovic Architects. Selser Schaefer is located in Dubuque and will be the project manager. The team from Selser Schaefer is well-versed in historic rehabilitation and preservation and provided specific past projects that are similar to the Five Flags Theater project. Sedovic brings experience working for the National Park Service as a historical architect as well as extensive background in historic preservation of landmark structures and restoration project management. A bonus that the team will provide is a maintenance plan that will address future items that should be done to protect the historic structure outside of work outlined in the masonry 2 rehabilitation and fire escape project. It will provide information to assist in preparation of future capital projects to budget for outside of this project. Based upon the interviews and proposals the committee requested the site evaluation include a lift rental to perform a sufficient investigation of all masonry surfaces. Additionally a mortar analysis will be an added component and increased site inspection visits during the work phase of the project. The lift and additional site visits were not in the proposals of the other firms shown above. Selser Schaefer's cost of these additions will not exceed $6,300. BUDGETIMPACT The budget for the architectural/engineering services for masonry rehabilitation and fire escape for the Five Flags Theater would be a part of the total budget of the Five Flags Theater Masonry Restoration CIP 350-1078 of$244,416 and Theater Fire Escape CIP 350-2511 of$35,000 for a total project cost of$279,416. REQUESTED ACTION The Consultant Selection Committee respectfully requests City Council approval of the recommendation to contract with Selser Schaefer Architects to conduct consultant services for the Five Flags Theater Masonry Rehabilitation and Fire Escape Project. enclosures RFP for Services Selser Schaefer Proposal and Fees cc: Jenny Larson, Budget Director 3 tutsa 1 dubuque 240 West 2nd Street Dubuque.Iowa 52001 563.5523804' SELSER SCHAEFER ARCHITECTS 26 April 2016 FEES & COMPENSATION The following fixed fee for the Five Flags Historic Theater Masonry Rehabilitation and Fire Escape Project shall remain firm for a period of 90 days.

COMMUNITY BACKGROUND The city of Dubuque is located on the Mississippi River in northeastern Iowa, adjacent to Illinois and Wisconsin. As Iowa's oldest city, Dubuque is a community well known for its historic and architectural beauty. The city is over 30 square miles in area, with a population of nearly 60,000 persons. The community has a stable and diversified manufacturing base and a growing service sector. Dubuque is the major retail, medical, education and employment center for the tri-state area. Tourism continues to be a major economic force in the community. The City of Dubuque is governed by an elected Mayor and City Council and managed by a City Manager. The City funds a full range of municipal services. City government works in collaboration with the private and non-profit sectors to promote economic development and sustainability. Sustainability and downtown, neighborhood, and riverfront planning and revitalization are long- standing priorities of the City Council. The City's web site is www.cityofdubugue.org. The City Council's Goals and Priorities are available online at http://www.cityofdubugue.org/councilgoaIs. BACKGROUND ON FIVE FLAGS THEATER The Five Flags Theater was constructed as the Majestic Theater in 1910, replacing a theatre originally built in 1864 that was destroyed by fire that year. It had been purchased then renovated by local prominent businessman Harker Brentnal Spensley, Sr. and his partner, C. H. Eighmey. The rebuilt theater was designed by C.W. and George L. Rapp of Chicago, who eventually became one of the nation's premier theater architects. The Theater was touted as the most beautiful and safest theater in Iowa and booked on a circuit of 87 theaters. The Majestic, as is it was called, has ornate Renaissance Revival Style with French and Italian influences. It was converted to a movie house in 1920 and renamed 'Spensley Theater' in 1929. It was later renamed the RKO Orpheum and used to show movies. Eventually, it fell into disrepair and was slated for demolition during urban renewal in 1969. A committee made up of concerned citizens began a fund drive in December of 1971 to save and renovate the theater, which was incorporated in the Five Flags Center project. In November of 1972 the Orpheum was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Restoration was begun in 1975, and the theater was reopened in 1976 as the Five Flags Theater. Since then the Theater has undergone a second major renovation. The 711 seat historic theater is currently the home of the Dubuque Symphony Orchestra, concerts, ballet, weddings and theatrical productions and more. Five Flags Civic Center incorporates the five national flags that have flown over the geographical region since 1673: the Fleur de Lis of France (1673-1763); the Royal Flag of Spain (1763-1803); the Union Jack of England (1780, during a brief interruption of Spanish rule); the French Republic Flag of Napoleon (1803); and the America's Stars and Stripes (1803-present).

They were collected from the Five Flags Theater (formerly the Orpheum Theater) and were submitted in an effort to determine their original formulas. The analysis was begun on Monday, May g, utilizing the standard testing procedure developed by E. Blaine Cliver, Regional Historical Architect of the North Atlantic Region of the National Park Service. This relatively simple procedure dissolves the lime and/or cement content of the mortar using a 20% solution of hydrochloric acid. The carbon dioxide released as a result of the reaction displaces water,which is then measured and used to calculate the soluble content of the mortar. The insoluble fines and sand remaining from the reaction are factored into the equation resulting in a final result. In the case of cement samples,the remaining fines are used to calculate the cement content of the mortar. The remaining sand is then carefully sieved and graded by grain size to provide a means of identification of the various sand types encountered. The first sample was collected from the interior of the theater attic. It was buff-colored and was moderately soft in consistency. Its analysis gave every indication of a lime and sand mortar — a rapid reaction, large water displacement, and very speedy filtering time. The analysis revealed a mixture of approximately two parts of sand to each part of lime, by volume if the fines are considered to be dirt associated with the original sand. The sand sieve analysis revealed fine sand of which all easily passed the largest sieve. Over 21% passed all of the sieves and almost 56%was trapped in the finest sieve. The second sample was removed from the interior of the theater stage. It was buff-colored with white specks and black dirt on its surface. Its reaction and water displacement as well as filtering time was virtually identical to the first sample,leading to the same conclusion that it was composed of lime and sand The relative amount of fines was exceptionally small. If the fines are considered to be dirt associated with the original sand, then the approximate original ratio was two parts of sand to each part of lime,by volume,as in the first sample. The sand sieve analysis revealed fine sand of which virtually all passed the largest sieve. Almost 15% passed all of the sieves and 60%was trapped in the finest sieve. The third sample came from the exterior of the north wall of the theater. It was buff-colored with a portion of it being white. It was moderately soft and had visible sand grains. Like the first two samples, it had a fast and bubbly reaction with rapid filtering. Its water displacement was the largest of the set. The relative amount of fines was small. If the fines were dirt associated with the sand,then the relative proportions of the mixture were twelve parts of sand to five parts of lime,by volume, or, roughly,two parts of sand to each part of lime as in the other samples. The sand sieve analysis revealed fine sand of which all easily passed the largest sieve. Slightly less than 18%passed all of the sieves and over 64%was trapped in the finest sieve. The fourth sample was from the exterior face of the west wall of the theater. It was buff-colored with visible sand grains. Soft in consistency, it had a fast and bubbly reaction. Its filtering time was rapid. All of these are indicators of a lime and sand mortar. Its water displacement matched that of the first and second samples. The analysis revealed a mixture of approximately five parts of sand to two parts of sand, by volume, if the fines are considered to be dirt associated with the sand. The sand sieve analysis revealed fine sand of which all easily passed the largest sieve.Over 18%passed all of the sieves and over 54%was trapped in the finest sieve. 8 Mortar/Plaster/Stucco Analysis Test Sheet Sample No. 1 Building: Five Flags Theater,Dubuque,Iowa Location: Theater Attic(interior) Sample Description: Buff,moderately soft,fast and bubbly reaction, extremely rapid filtering Test No. 1-Soluble Fraction Data: 1. 185.6 Container A weight 8. no Hair or fibertype 2. 205.6 Container A and sample 9. 4.1 Fines and paper weight 3. 758.19 Barometric pressure 10. 2.9 Filter paper weight 4. 22 Temperature 11. 199.3 Sand and Container A weight 5. 0.73 Liters of water displaced 12. 8.1 cc.of sand 6.yellow green Filtrate color 13.-,j2.9-Weight of graduated cylinder and sand 7. tan Fines color 14-19-2 Weight of graduated cylinder Computations: 15. 20.0 Starting weight of sample: No.2 -No. 1 16. 1.2 Weight of fines:No. 9-No. 10 17.---13-7 Weight of sand: No. 11-No. 1 18. .59124 Sand density:No. 12 divided by(No. 13 -No. 14) 19. 5.1 Weight of soluble content: No. 15-(No. 16+No. 17) 20. 0.03 Mols.Of CO2:No. 5 x No.3.x o.016 divided by(No.4 +273.16 C.) 21. 3.00 Gram weight of CaCOT loo x No.20 22. 2.10 Gram weight of Ca(OH)2: No. 19 -No.21 23.0.0283744Mols.of Ca(OH)2: No.22 divided by 74 24. 4.32 Gram total weight of Ca(OH)2: 74 x(No.20 +No.23) 25. 1.32 Gram weight CO2:No.20 x 44 26. 2.57 Gram weight total possible CO2: 44 x(No. 20 +No.23) 27. 51.36 %CO2 gain:No.25 divided by No.26 Conclusions: 28. 18.68 Gram weight of sample: No. 15-No. 25 29. 6.42 Fine parts/volume: No. 16 divided by No.28 30. 4339 Sand parts/volume: (No. 17 divided by No.28)x No. 18 31. 25.44 Lime parts/volume: (No.24 divided by No.28)x 1.1 Cement (if present) 32.
