SCHEMATIC DESIGN: March-June2025
<br />The work completed in the Pre -Design and Programming phase will provide an
<br />excellent framework for review with the City staff and stakeholders. As with any project
<br />we are involved with we carefully review the findings of the previous phases to ensure
<br />the Public Works Facility is completed to the exact specifications of Lino Lakes.
<br />Activities within the Schematic Design phase include design progress meetings with the
<br />owner's project team, design team coordination, and the City Stakeholder meeting at
<br />the end of the phase. We will work with City staff to schedule those within the project
<br />timeline but understand that the overall schedule will be adapted to reflect the City's
<br />meeting schedule.
<br />The project team in this phase is almost entirely Architectural. However, we will draw
<br />in the Structural, Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineers from our highly qualified
<br />design team as necessary to inform initial space needs and construction costs. An
<br />important part of this phase is that the team incorporates a holistic approach to
<br />understand a complete scope and identify details that will be investigated, developed,
<br />and designed in later phases, thus using everyone's time as efficiently and effectively as
<br />possible.
<br />We would also discuss general sustainability items that may be incorporated into
<br />the project at this time. Architecturally, we'll lean into 'passive' strategies first - site
<br />positioning, shape and orientation, wind protection/ capture, windows locations and
<br />sizing, reducing thermal bridging, and maintaining continuous insulation - to save
<br />energy without adding cost, and in some cases, even reducing it.
<br />We will then focus our design efforts on a robust, high-performance envelope -
<br />working with mechanical to determine the 'sweet spot' for reducing building energy
<br />use enough to pull down mechanical system sizes. This is leaning into resilience - an
<br />envelope that saves energy using passive building methodologies is a building more
<br />resistant to temperature extremes, brownouts, and fluctuating utility rates. Resilience
<br />is a tool to create 100 year+ buildings, buildings with low maintenance costs that serve
<br />staff and the public well.
<br />Throughout the design process, we'll rely on iterative energy modeling to make good
<br />decisions using data. This lets us see where the building is using most energy, and focus
<br />reduction efforts intelligently in areas of greatest impact. We'd also propose engaging
<br />life cycle costing in design, to provide understanding of the true cost of ownership with
<br />higher -performing systems using a holistic view through 5, 10, 20+ year outlooks, so
<br />you can make informed decisions.
<br />During the Schematic Design phase we will incorporate the space needs assessment
<br />and associated program completed in the Pre -Design phase. We will have detailed
<br />discussions on specific spaces which are critical to the Public Works facility throughout
<br />the process. Components which may be required in your facility, such as vehicle and

<br />team. Our expert team can assist the City in choosing the appropriate types of systems
<br />for all the Department equipment efficiently and effectively, to meet all spatial and
<br />operational requirements.
<br />Upon completion of the space needs assessment and program we will develop
<br />building spatial diagrams and initial site and building layout diagrams. The site will be
<br />analyzed for current and future space usage, determining viable locations for well and
<br />septic systems, including the feasibility of using or adding onto your existing systems,
<br />constructability of the site, stormwater control needs, pedestrian and vehicular traffic,
<br />staff and public safety, traffic patterns, maintaining appropriate access to your existing
<br />salt storage structure, and surrounding elements. The initial building and site layouts
<br />will be developed concurrently in close coordination with the City Stakeholders.
