Russo <br /> City Manager <br /> City of Sunny Isles Beach <br /> 18070 Collins Avenue <br /> Sunny Isles Beach. FL 33160 <br /> Re: Gateway Park <br /> Dear Chris. <br /> After our various discussions with you and your staff and considering the December 14. <br /> 2012 "shopping list." we have a good'understanding of the nature and scope of the changes to the <br /> Project. As you know, the design drawings, as well the permit plans must be re-done to reflect <br /> the changes. The plans for both the Garage and Park components of the Project are affected. <br /> The substantial changes to the Garage (with the addition of the new banquet <br /> hall/restaurant) result in the need to completely re-engineer the structure, including changes in <br /> . occupancy involving all architectural and engineering disciplines. Unfortunately, we are not able <br /> to utilize the existing plans. An entirely new set of architectural and engineering plans are <br /> necessary to accomplish the changes. <br /> While the requested changes to the Park are rather insignificant, the new design/layout of <br /> the Garage (including the banquet hall) necessitates the redesign/alteration of several areas of the <br /> Park. These include revisions in the design of the water/sewer and other utility systems. <br /> sprinkler system. lighting. access cuts and outdoor dining areas, etc. <br /> To better understand the overall effect the changes to the Project have on the design and <br /> permit plans, our architect has prepared a brief memorandum with a breakdown of the cost of the <br /> additional architectural and engineering services. which is enclosed with this letter. <br /> I trust that this letter together with the architect's memorandum will provide you with the <br /> information needed to proceed forward in presenting this matter to the City Commission. If you <br /> have any questions or concerns. please contact me. <br /> Si ly' <br /> ft� RECEIVED <br /> Joseph tton <br /> Enclosures JAN 1 7 2013 <br /> City of Sunny Isles Beach <br /> Office of the City Manager <br />
