althorpe sociates Urban Planners • Architects Mayor Kimberly A. Sullivan City of Lino Lakes, 1189 Main Street Lino Lakes, Minnesota 55014 Dear Mayor Sullivan, October 1, 1998 We are excited by the prospect of helping your community create a vibrant town center. We feel that a true town center draws community members for various reasons, with a range of civic, commercial, residential and open space uses. Calthorpe Associates is nationally recognized for its ability to integrate these pieces within a pedestrian supportive fabric, while being responsive to market realities. In this proposal, we described a scope of work and work products that we consider to be essential to a successful project. We have broken the scope into phases, and submit Phase 1 to you for authorization at this time. If the City decides to commit to the direction described by Phase 1, we will resubmit the Phase 2 & Phase 3 scopes for authorization. (We have included Phase 2 & 3 scopes to give you a more complete understanding of remaining tasks.) If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me or Matt Taecker, my Associate in charge of this important project. PHASE 1: PRELIMINARY MASTER PLANNING $35,000 1] Opportunities and Constraints Analysis & Review of Relevant Documents $5,000 This task will draw out key issues and questions. Using information made available to us, we will review existing aerials, site plans, utility maps, topographic maps, wetland surveys, local development regulations, comprehensive plans, and other documents relating to the site. Using available materials, we will summarize critical features within an Opportunities & Constraints Map. Features that are likely to be important include: site access, wetlands, drainage, mature woodlands, steep slopes, noise, and use restrictions. We will also prepare a context map that shows the site's relationship with surrounding land uses, natural features, and transportation. Products: Opportunity & Constraints Map Context Map September 23 Meeting to Review Initial Analysis 2] Preliminary Master Plan $20,000 We will develop a Preliminary Master Plan (at 1" =100') that describes land uses /intensities, building /open space configurations, and circulation patterns. A statistical summary will accompany the Master Plan and describe floor area, unit counts, and parking for the various commercial, residential and civic elements. A shared parking analysis will also be performed. 739 Allston Way Berkeley, CA 94710 510 - 548 -6800 Fax 510- 548 -6848 I't•tt r (aithurtx • mitt ide( ker • k ,i•tih F:. Si a iig,i
