292DesignGroup minneapolis September 22, 2017 Michael Hecker Parks and Recreation Director City of Elk River 13065 Orono Parkway Elk River, MN 55330 RE: Revised Fee for Elk River Ice Arena and Lion John Weicht Park Facilities Dear Michael and Selection Committee: It was a pleasure presenting our qualifications to you this past week. As requested, 292 Design Group is pleased to submit a revised proposal for the Elk River Ice Arena and Lion John Weicht Park Facilities. I want to highlight a few things that separate us from the competition: Team Continuity: Since 2011, 292 Design Group has been working with the City of Elk River on planning the ice arena expansion and renovation through various studies. We have assembled an exceptionally strong and proven team of experts that you met during the interview. This is the same team that just completed the $30.4M new Shakopee Ice Arena and renovated Community Center project. Designed and Built Ice Arenas: 292 and this team, specifically, have more designed and built ice arenas than any of our competitors. Couple that with AJA's unbelievable resume of athletic fields, we will deliver state of the art ice and field facilities. Jordan Valley Ice Arena, Chaska Curling Center, and Grandview Community Center have won Athletic Business and AIA design awards. We expect Shakopee Ice Arena and Community Center to be an award winner soon. Revised Fee: Based on the question and answer period during the interview, and having a better understanding of the project scope and the City's expectations we could reduce our fee. The entire team pitched in and looked -for efficiencies in the scope and staffing of the project to streamline our services. We believe this will still maintain the level of service the city and this project requires. In return, we ask for cooperation with the city to help us provide efficient delivery of our services. For example, this may include grouping meetings together or in certain cases utilizing technology such as GoTo Meeting to hold online meetings when appropriate. The 292 Design Team proposes a Phased Fixed Fee for the Elk River Ice Arena and Lion John Weicht Park Facilities. We assumed a construction budget of $20,666,871. The fee below is inclusive of the following reimbursable expenses: mileage, postage, printing associated with preparation of the project, and a land survey. It does not include permit fees or construction document printing for bidding.
