This is a great advantage because we can shave several weeks off of any proposed design schedule. We will begin design within days of meeting with the City for the kick-off meeting. Later in the design ) process we will make necessary adjustments based on the traditional survey. 30% Design Documents Our landscape architecture staff will generate one or multiple concepts, depending on the Client's needs, for consideration at the 30% design stage. Our team will provide either hand sketches or fully rendered 3D models using Sketch-up and Maxwell Render software depending on what is appropriate forthe Client. The 30% design documents will include a site layout, preliminary routing of utilities and drainage, conceptual locations for all site elements, and conceptual landscape and hardscape design, as well as a materials palette with preliminary pricing for the project. All renderings generated at this stage of the project will be suitable for use by the City for presentation to the public or other government staff as necessary. CMA will submit the 30% Design Documents for comment to the City and arrange a follow-up meeting with City staff to review project goals and schedule at this stage of the design. Our team will again provide Meeting Minutes to make certain that major points of conversation have been recorded and the design team is moving forward with a common purpose for the 60% Design Documents. 60% Design Documents Once the City has offered feedback on the 30% Design Documents, our team will make any necessary adjustments to the proposed design and begin to fine tune the documents for a second round of comments from the City's team. During this stage of design, we will be focused on moving the design towards greater technical accuracy for execution and submittal to the multiple regulatory agencies that will review the project. It is at this stage that we will flush out any unanticipated regulatory hurdles and take the actions necessary to keep the project on schedule and budget without sacrifice to design quality. At the conclusion of 60% design documents, the site plan will be nearly final, all materials will have been selected, and all technical and regulatory issues will have been identified. CMA will submit the documents for review to the City's management team along with choices to be made based on preliminary meetings with pertinent regulatory agencies. CMA will meet with city staff and collaborate with the Client to continue to move the project forward. 90% Design Documents After incorporating feedback from the City on the 60% Design Documents, CMA will make their first submittal to pertinent regulatory agencies in order to get official comments from each agency involved. At this stage the construction documents will be nearly complete and while waiting for comments from regulatory agencies, CMA will begin developing the specifications package that will accompany the drawings for bidding. Once comments have been received from regulatory agencies, CMA will review the comments and the 90% drawings with the Client to coordinate any final decisions that need to made prior to final submittal to the agencies for permits. ,CH RfQ No,/HIt/-{/4 IJeslgn anti /'ermiWIIg Services afOre tlllrtlcoastal Parks &ASSOCIATtS
