Request for Proposal No. 09-11-01 DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES FOR SKATE BOARD PARK AT TOWN CENTER Design I Construction Overview & Materials Project Warranty The Skate Board Park @ Town Center is intended to be a gathering place for residents and kids to experience skate boarding at the beginning level and allow people the opportunity to learn and have fun and the same time. Our team envisions incorporating sustainable components into the facility that will not only enhance the look of the park but also lead by example in creating a park that incorporates as many sustainable materials as possi- ble while maintaining the integrity of the city's budget. A separate entrance will be developed from the east side of the park off of Collins Avenue that will allow separation from the main park area. This entrance will also incor- porate a small kiosk area where the city can monitor the use of the park as well as crate an entrance to the skating experience. Our design will also incorporate re-designing the SE corner of the park to allow both sides to work as one park. The incorporation of street art, which is manufactured by Team Pain will give the corner a sense of color and creativity that will enhance the look of the park. Sustainable Design: Selected use of graphics, materials such as wood, steel, corrugated metal and acid stained concrete allow for sustainability and an aesthetically exciting park and kiosk structure. By working hand in hand with the skate park designer, we hope to bring the sense of movement and excitement generated by the flowing curves of the skate park into the overall landscape and design of the small structure/s, Our use of existing fill that may be generated to create some of the changes in elevations will also allow us to minimize the disturbance of existing areas and minimize transportation costs. We will maintain a high level of protection for the environmentally sensitive areas just south of the pro- posed skate park area by installing silt fencing and maintain all Department of Environmental Protec- tion regulations. Our plan will incorporate a series of water fountains and lights that are directed down and work with cut-off sensors in order to minimize to effects of light pollution, Landscaping will incorporate fully native plants through color and type, while maximizing its xeriphic qualities, Emphasis of canopy trees for shade supplemented by palms to highlight circulation patterns and spatial elements We will maximize the use of local recycled materials and absorbing elements added to the planting soil for additional water retention and water conservation, Warranty: Team Pain offers a one year warranty against defects in workmanship provided by Team Pain and is related to the actual skating surfaces and accessories. The surface of the skate park will maintain its integrity and Team Pain will warranty the repair of any shifting or heaving of the concrete, the metal edges (coping) are to remain secure and in-tact, as well as, any welding work performed. In addition to Team Pain's warranty Kalex Construction and all sub-contractors used will offer a one year war- ranty on all construction related work performed. Any additional manufacturer's warranty on installed products will be added to a close-out package that is submitted to the City of Sunny Isles upon completion of the project. ~I =. - KALEX [T1.Ei\~ ~~~~J SILV,4 N<CHifECTS
