6) It must incorporate energy efficiency /alternative energy concepts that provide a reasonable payback on the initial investment. The Design Development phase should consider options for "green" energy efficiency and sustainable design (i.e. geothermal heat, solar power, etc.). The owner is not considering LEED certification. Such options will be evaluated by the Architect, in consultation with the CM, on a cost- benefit /pay- back analysis to determine if they will be incorporated into the building. The Construction Manager will be expected to investigate energy rebate programs available through the City's purchased power supplier that could be incorporated into the building. 7) It must meet or exceed all requirements for the Americans with Disabilities Act. 8) It must be able to accommodate future expansion and design flexibility to meet changing governmental service needs well into the future. 9) The building must be completed within the prescribed budget and timeline (the general guidelines are included in this document but they will be refined as part of this process and revised prior to the bidding phase). OWNER'S VISION FOR THE REMODELING OF CITY HALL: City Hall was constructed back in the mid 1970's. In 1991, an addition was completed that doubled the size of the existing space; bringing the total square footage to about 7,000. The entire building needs updating given it is over 20 years since any significant work (the building has been re- roofed during this period). The City is hopeful that we can generate some economies of scale between the Public Works building and the need to remodel City Hall. We are looking for the construction manager to help us achieve that outcome, when practical. Attachment #4 is a listing of potential improvements needed for the building. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER QUALIFICATIONS: 1. Possess a thorough knowledge of building design, alternative construction methods, and efficient use of building materials. 2. Effectively work with the Owner and Architect on change orders, shop drawings, pay request verification and coordination of multiple prime contractors. 3. Work harmoniously with individuals or groups of people. 9
