As a testament to our commitment to our clients, ORDA has been serving • as the Landscape Architectural Consultant to the City of Aventura since its inception in 1995 ® performing tasks such as site plan review, permit review and inspections, park design, street- scape design, irrigation design, maintenance specifications and schedules, landscape studies, • tree surveys, maintenance monitoring including analysis and evaluation of existing landscape • conditions and recommendations for improvements. • Most recently, ORDA provided landscape architecture services as part of the private-public • partnership between the City of Doral and the Codina Development Co. for 'Doral City Park' • located in the heart of downtown Doral's new city center. ORDA understands the importance • of preserving and creating community spaces and public realm areas as part of a municipality's efforts to create livable cities.

We have a long history of successfully completed projects in South Florida • and are sensitive to the unique environmental issues associated with this area. • Schedule of Proposed Services • A schedule of proposed services for a typical landscape architectural project for the City of • Sunny Isles Beach includes the initial task of site inventory and analysis, reviewing available • plans, surveys and documentation depicting existing conditions of the project site, reviewing local codes and ordinances, design standards and any other information related to the project. • The on-site analysis will include verification of utilities, obstructions, existing vegetation, op- • portunities, constraints, and any other pertinent elements not depicted on the available plans. • Following site inventory and analysis is the preparation of conceptual alternatives that depict the character and intent of the design. The Conceptual Design plans will include an analysis of • existing conditions such as scenic values, areas of emphasis, visibility, safety, cost and mainte- • nance considerations. A preliminary estimate of Probable Construction Cost at the conceptual • phase will help the City establish a construction budget if one has not already been estab- lished. If deemed advisable by City staff, the Conceptual design alternatives will be presented o to the City Commission. • _ r = i s i 'a ;ic IIi 3- co .a't r- .1r. , �z 'rry �: s y[f` i ELLEN M. yrt F „r-'-fig WYNNE � • ,•'9. is�� i9 - • ? ril -*.i B . iis, / -`�r t 5�'�21`ri� • _%,.,„........''S..;"4- 1-1:.' . 0 40 O'LEARY RICHARDS DESIGN ASSOCIATES,Inc. 9
