Re: Public Works Space Needs Analysis and Existing Facility Audit
On behalf of CNH Architects, our consulting engineers and estimator, thank you for considering our Proposal to provide Facility Space Needs
Analysis services for the City of Lino Lakes.
The project team presented in this proposal has worked together for many years on City, County, and State projects in the State of Minnesota.
Our architectural/engineering team has a common goal to provide quality design services and to be at the forefront of utilizing sustainable building
methodologies. We understand the need for an organized process from the first meeting through completion of this study, with clear and detailed
documentation along the way.
CNH Architects has worked with the City of Lino Lakes as well as numerous municipalities throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area to provide
assessment services, reviewing current conditions of many existing governmental facilities and identifying immediate as well as future growth
needs. We communicate closely with our engineers and cost estimator so that our observations are shared and comprehensive, while keeping
a holistic approach on the entire project so that the overall building performance and client vision is considered when individual components and
systems are under analysis. Details can impact both short and long term effects on cost, maintenance and occupant use, and as a design team we
are attentive to these implications at every scale.
We look forward to serving the City of Lino Lakes and together evaluate the facility needs of the Public Works Department now and into the future.
Respectfully submitted,

PROJECT APPROACH
PROJECT NEEDS ASSESSMENT
In order to put together a comprehensive assessment that addresses issues thoroughly and
makes sound recommendations going forward, CNH Architects will collect information about
the existing facilities as exhaustively as possible. Our team will interview appropriate City Staff
to understand both their current needs as well as future operational changes and anticipated
growth areas. We will compare these areas to other similar cities, providing not only relational
size comparisons but interjecting potential issues that may not have been considered. To create
accountability and clarity in our investigation, we make it a priority to gather initial information
with rigor such that assumptions are minimal, collaborating closely with our engineers to pinpoint
existing and potential issues that may or may not already be identified. In this process, owner and
facility management involvement is critical, particularly in revealing and weighing components
that contribute towards small and large scale building performance and longevity.
ACCESSIBILITY AND CODE COMPLIANCE
Many existing buildings are not up to code with building codes and accessibility requirements.
We have extensive experience working with code and ADA guidelines, including recent projects
completed with the State of Minnesota in upgrading all restrooms in their 4 -story, 78,000 sf
administrative building on the Capitol grounds, plus the unique security and accessibility issues
of the Dakota County LEC 8100 Cell Block remodeling. These aspects of a project can easily
become a costly component, and our familiarity with many issues related to accessibility
upgrades can lead to efficient and proactive solutions.
MAINTENANCE & LONGEVITY
Durable materials, equipment and finishes are considered for longevity when providing
recommendations in the assessment report, and consideration will be taken to balance initial
construction cost versus cost over the life of the product and its implications on the rest of the
structure if any. We would present a list of options, innovative ways to keep cost at a minimum,
and review the pros and cons of each option to best achieve identified project goals.
Buildings inevitably deteriorate and require periodic maintenance. While keeping safety and
durability of paramount importance, the Project Team is prepared to recommend options that
help reduce maintenance costs and create an environment where building upkeep is simple and
straightforward.

PROJECT APPROACH
SUSTAINABILITY
The Project Team will provide recommendations for sustainable opportunities in the existing
city public works campus as well as any future facilities or sites. CNH has many years of green
building experience, with several awarded projects listed in our firm portfolio. We just recently
assisted the City of Roseville in utilizing the excess heat generated by the Ice Arena on their city
campus to fully heat the new Fire Station we designed for them, providing significant energy cost
savings. Creative approaches such as this will be evaluated for Lino Lakes, including initial cost
and payback analysis to assist you in making informed choices that best fit the goals and values
of the City.
OPTION ANALYSIS
After gathering all the information on space needs, evaluated the existing public works campus,
and developed future needs based on expected growth; CNH will review three approaches for the
City of Lino Lakes to meet their Public Works needs. These will include:
Option 1— Renovate the existing building and expand to meet future needs.
Option 2 — Build an all new facility at the existing west site to provide long-term value.
Option 3 — Build an all new facility at the city property at Birch Street and Centerville
Road leaving some appropriate elements at the existing west site.
The study will review each of the above options, analyzing and listing comparative data on each
option in order to provide the City of Lino Lakes with the tools to make an informed decision on
the future of the Public Works department facilities. Among others, the review of each option will
include the following topics:
• Space needs — current and future
• Growth potential for each option
• Existing facility conditions
• Deferred and short-term maintenance
• Building code / OSHA compliance
• Accessibility compliance
• Energy usage and potential for savings
• Long-term costs of operation
• Capital costs for construction / remodeling proposed
• Site location relative to population and infrastructure

EAGAN CITY HALL AND POLICE DEPARTMENT ADDITION AND REMODEL
EAGAN, MN
After over 25 years of use without significant remodeling, the City of Eagan found that the
growth of the staff both in administration and the police department was stretching their facility
past its ability to meet the current needs. CNN Architects did a comprehensive review of all
staffing departments and operations and, along with city staff, developed a space needs
analysis identifying both under-utilized space as well as significant shortfalls inoperational space
standards. In addition, the building condition was reviewed to determine elements that were
either failing or reaching their expected usable life.
From this space needs study, CNH developed multiple options for addressing the needs
identified in both City Hall and Police Department portions of the building. With staff input, these
options were then modified to best meet operational flows, space needs, efficiency, and budget.
A detailed construction cost was then determined and the project budget was set.
The city is completing the financial planning for this addition and remodeling project which will
then move into the construction document and actual construction phases in the near future.

BISHOP HENRY WHiPPLE FEDERAL BUILDING (EDI)
FORT SNELLING, MN
Engineering Design Initiative completed a comprehensive feasibility study for the Bishop
Henry Whipple Federal Building located in Fort Snelling, MN. Facility sustainability and energy
efficiency were the primary focus of the study. The existing mechanical, electrical and plumbing
(MEP) systems serving the building are very inefficient, have greatly exceeded their normal
operating lifetimes and have become increasingly problematic. Asbestos containing materials
(ACM) are also a major concern.
EDI identified four facility alternatives ranging from refurbishing and replacing selected MEP
equipment to complete ACM abatement and facility renovation. The study included conceptual
design, construction cost estimating, tenant relocation planning, sustainability concepts and life
cycle cost analysis. Based on the study results, the US General Services Administration has
implemented a program to completely renovate the building so that it can continue to serve the
regional offices of the Federal Government well into the future.
CITY OF EAGAN FIRE STATION #4 - FACILITY STUDY (CNH Architects)
EAGAN, MN
CNH Architects provided a complete facility assessment of existing Fire Station #4 for the City of
Eagan. This study evaluated the existing condition of fire station exterior envelope and all interior
elements to determine their life expectancy and repair costs. The facility was also reviewed for
ADA accessibility, identifying deficiencies and recommended upgrades. In addition, the facility
was evaluated for function, current staff and equipment needs, and finally fire fighter safety,
From this review, CNH developed a list of recommended remodeling elements and an expansion
to better fit the current apparatus and to expand gear locker clearance to meet NFPA safety
standards.
After identifying the facility's maintenance, accessibility, function and safety deficiencies, CNH
Architects provided preliminary design of measures to address the existing concerns, Once these
project goals were determined, an itemized cost estimate was developed for the maintenance,
remodeling and expansion project. Finally, CNH worked along with the city staff to develop a
written report and digital presentation to present this information to the City Council.

DESIGN INNOVATION
CNH Architects address issues of concern and opportunity for our clients with creative and
innovative design solutions. Some of these design solutions are exemplified by the following
examples:
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
When designing the Minnesota Zoo's new Black Bear Exhibit there were numerous challenges:
the sloping site, exhibit safety, meeting the needs of the bears, fitting into the existing zoo's MN
Trail, and creating a great visitor experience. This last challenge, to create a great customer
experience, is a common issue with publicfacilities. For this exhibit, ourdesign involved minimizing
public view to caging and other institutional looking animal security features, while emphasizing
the natural looking materials. A rock wall is positioned to hide the bear doors leading into the
cage dens and creates a barrier to maintain the bears within their exhibit space. Landscaping
is used to hide security fencing while giving the exhibit a natural feel. A cave for the bears also
allows for an intimate viewing of sleeping bears, especially by the children that visit the exhibit.
Large windows in the viewing gallery, with heated rocks just in front, help to attract the bears to
a more visible viewing location. These and many other features increase the chances for visitors
to see the bears while not being distracted by functional aspects of the exhibit.
FLEXIBILITY
Designing flexibility into a project is more than just creating a large featureless space. In the case
of Valleywood Clubhouse, the facility was designed to accommodate a steady flow of golfers
during the golf season, full course tournament events, and special occasion events in both the
golf and non -golf seasons. To achieve this mix of activities and maintain the building footprint
within the client's budget, a strategy of flexible rooms was developed. The main event room
overlooks the 18th hole for a beautiful view of the course and the natural setting. It is sized to
appeal to both golfers and special event users. This room is also equipped with audio/visual
capabilities and has connections with an outdoor patio, bar serving window, commercial kitchen
and a casual bar seating area. The casual bar seating area can serve as an overflow event space
or accommodate a steady stream of golfers while another event is booked. The main entrance
lobby with fireplace is ideal for setting a casual tone for golfers and allows enough space for a
reception table for special events. All these rooms are nicely detailed and are equipped with
features that can be used by either golfers and/or special event guests.
ENERGY
Reducing energy costs to a third of similar retail operations gives a building owner a competitive
advantage. To achieve these savings, a comprehensive and innovative approach to building
design was required. One strategy for the free standing Apple Valley Liquor Store No. 3 was
to tie waste heat from the beverage coolers to a geothermal heat pump loop system that is
used to heat and cool the building. Along with this system, a well -insulated building also limits
the need for temperature adjustments. To further reduce energy consumption, efficient lighting
and building systems were used. By incorporating natural daylight, the need for artificial lighting
during daytime hours was reduced, and consequently the heat created by light fixtures. LED
lighting and other high efficiency light sources were used. Pay back on the energy systems
was calculated and verified by the owner at 6 to 7 years. This project is a Green Globe certified
project and achieved Energy Star certification after a full year of operation.
FIRST COSTS
This fire training tower combines both a training tower and a fire burn facility. With 14 training
rooms and participation from four communities, this facility reduces the need for multiple
facilities and expands the training capabilities for the local fire departments. Within the facility
sacrificial walls were used to allow protection of the permanent structural elements. Fires can do
tremendous damage to a facility and these sacrificial block walls will need to be replaced every
5 years or more, but the overall structure should last for generations. This sacrificial system was
selected in place of very expensive fire tile construction, saving the communities over $200,000
or more than 10 percent of the construction budget.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
DESIGN OF SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS
A majority of CNH Architects' architectural and intern staff are LEED Accredited Professionals
and designed the first two projects in Minnesota to be awarded a Green Globe certification.
Wayne Hilbert is a principal with CNH Architects and one of the first architects LEED accredited
and the first architect to receive certification as a Green Globe Professional in Minnesota.
CNH Architects, along with our design team, evaluate and develop sustainable strategies with
our clients. We are familiar with a variety of rating systems and have incorporated multiple
sustainable and high-performance strategies in our projects.
These projects not only highlight our energy strategies, but also include multiple approaches to:
Performance Management
Site and Water
Energy and Atmosphere
Indoor Environment Quality
Materials and Waste
ROSEVILLE FIRE STATION
With an existing Ice Arena on the city campus, the new Roseville Fire Station took advantage of
the economies and included the development of a campus geothermal loop system. The piping
loop harvests excess heat created in the process of freezing the ice sheet and distributes this
heat through the city campus to the new fire station building. This first phase of the campus
geothermal loop provides sufficient energy to fully heat the entire fire station building for only
the cost of circulating the fluid in the loop piping, with capacity to spare for other city buildings
on the campus.
APPLE VALLEY LIQUOR STORE #3
Completed in 2008, this project was the first project in Minnesota to receive a Green Globe
certification. The Green Building Initiative recognized this project with a "Two Globe" rating, and
the building is also Energy Star certified. Using a highly efficient geothermal heat pump system
and ventilation exchange allows this building to greatly reduce energy usage. The beer coolers
are also integrated into the geothermal system.
APPLE VALLEY CITY HALL
Using both Minnesota Sustainable Design Guide and LEED as outlines for design, this project
incorporates multiple sustainable strategies. Itis listed on the Minnesota Office of Environmental
Assistance website as an example of green architecture. It has also been published in American
City and County Magazine and The National League of Cities for its sustainable strategies.
APPLE VALLEY SENIOR CENTER - APPLE VALLEY, MN
Completed in 2009, this project was awarded Two Globes under the Green Globe rating system.
This facility uses a combination of daylight harvesting, heat pumps, ventilation air exchange and
in -floor radiant heating to provide comfort and reduce energy consumption.
VALLEYWOOD CLUBHOUSE - APPLE VALLEY, MN
First facility in Minnesota to earn Three Green Globes for new construction. Overlooking the
18thhole, this building combines energy efficiency with a contemporary design to create a very
successful event venue.
