This proposal is based upon the following project understanding and approach. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING + APPROACH Over the past ten years community need for a space to support community gathering and events has become increasingly evident in Little Canada. In 2019 the Parks and Recreation Commission began exploring in earnest the development of a building in Pioneer Park to meet this need. By 2024 a key parcel was purchased at 2884 Centerville Road – adjacent to the park and the public works facility. The city now seeks assistance in furthering this effort with the development of a conceptual design, cost estimate, and graphics for the Community Building and its adjacent outdoor amenity spaces. The Bolton & Menk team is dedicated to providing outstanding creative and technical deliverables in support of this effort and is poised to deliver in a timely and cost-effective manner to help build consensus and excitement for the future Little Canada community building. To ensure a positive project result that meets the city’s requirements, we have developed a project approach that is rooted in three primary goals: + Provide creative and appropriate solutions focused on Little Canada’s specific needs + Maximize value and cost effectiveness through sustainable design and sensible, inspired solutions + Build client, public, and consultant trust and satisfaction This document details our proposed approach for concept design and cost estimating for the proposed community building site and amenity space. In general, the following scope will include concept design of the proposed improvements, a preliminary cost opinion, and supporting graphic renderings. SITE DESCRIPTION The project is located at 2884 Centerville Road, adjacent to Pioneer Park and the Little Canada Public Works building. The project area is comprised of approximately 1.3 acres and will include a new community building, supportive amenity spaces, parking, and vehicular and pedestrian circulation. Our
