Dear Kevin:
The following is our scope of work and fee proposal for generating Plans,
Specifications & Estimate (PS&E) for bidding and installation of a single
user restroom at Bret Harte Park.
Project Understanding:
After visiting the site, it appears that the restroom would be best located
near the current entrance as you have discussed with Molly Blauvelt. The
existing wood arbor, deck and bench system would be removed and off -
hauled as part of this phase. The existing bulletin board and tiles
attached to the arbor can be salvaged and stored for later use.
Preliminary Considerations:
• Use base topographic and existing conditions plans provided by
San Rafael Public Works for PS&E.
• A more detailed opinion of probable installation cost will be
provided once the scope is clarified.
• We received an estimate for a single user restroom from The Public
Restroom Company for Albert Park earlier this year. The amount
was $90,000, delivered to the site. This doesn't include site work
and hookups. DPW can choose between this model and the CXT-
"Ozark 1 " single user restroom that is under consideration.
• A new replacement wood arbor and bench system will be under
future work. A good location for this would be further into the site,
adjacent to the basketball court. This will allow continued
maintenance access from the street, using the existing access
gates.
• If the new building is located near the street, we can have the
perimeter fencing end at one end and start up at the other, using
the building itself as a barrier. This would eliminate the odd space
between a low perimeter fence and the building.
• In locating the new building, it would be nice to increase the width
of the pedestrian entry.
• It is assumed that the existing walkway into the park and the
adjacent paving is accessible and we would set the finish floor
elevation in relation to these.
• It is assumed that parks maintenance will want to keep the existing
chain link swing gates for maintenance access.
• We will need confirmation on the invert elevation of the adjacent
sanitary sewer and if we can break into the sewer riser with a new
connection for the restroom or, if we have to chase the line
downhill for the sewer connection.
Exhibit A
• It appears there is a water supply to the site. We will need to
confirm size of line and pressure.
• It appears there is electrical availability at the adjacent street light.
We will need to confirm the need for a new electrical panel.
• If funding is available, we can include planting and irrigation design
between the restroom and the street to improve the entry into the
park and softening of the rear view of the restroom building.
• The salvaged bulletin board and tiles could possibly be attached to
the entry side of the restroom.
• We could look at attaching the wood Bret Harte Park sign and
hours directly to the new restroom building to simplify the entry.
• There will be a need to replacing some paving around the perimeter
of the new restroom to heal construction and adapt to existing
grades. We can look at keeping the existing brick paving.
• Some chain link fence will need to be removed and possibly
replaced.
