Recreation Director
City Manager Approval: __________
TOPIC: PICKLEWEED BRANCH LIBRARY RE-DESIGN PROJECT
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH JAYSON ARCHITECTURE P.C. FOR ARCHITECTURAL,
ENGINEERING AND INTERIOR DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE PICKLEWEED
BRANCH LIBRARY IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $251,210
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Jayson Architecture
P.C. in the amount not to exceed $251,210.
BACKGROUND:
The San Rafael Public Library currently has three physical locations. The original downtown library
opened on January 9, 1909. The Pickleweed Library branch opened as part of the Albert J. Boro
Community Center in July of 2006. A third location at the Northgate Mall was added on December 8,
2018.
Pickleweed Branch Library is 2,000 square feet, co-located with the Albert J. Boro Community Center
and within Pickleweed Community Park. The facility is heavily utilized and is an important resource for a
predominantly Spanish-speaking community. Under the Library and Recreation Department, the broader
facility is a successful example of joint and collaborative use between the City’s Library and Recreation
Divisions. The community’s demand and practical need for more spacious, modern library facilities to
serve the residents of San Rafael has been affirmed through numerous needs assessments, studies,
and facility analyses. The 2019 Library Facilities Planning Study identified the expansion of the current
Pickleweed Branch Library as one opportunity for increasing library space for the community. The City
Council Goals and Objectives for FY 2023 – FY 2025 also identify redesigning the Pickleweed Branch
Library as a Quality of Life goal priority.
The City secured a $1,000,000 Building Forward Grant from the State Library Foundation to redesign
and renovate the Pickleweed Library with the goal of increasing public space, improving accessibility and
inclusivity, and improving means of egress. The Building Forward Grant requires a 100% project match,
for which the City has allocated memorial funds that were donated to the City for the purpose of improved
library facilities and services that are accessible to all (Fund 712).
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
ANALYSIS:
On January 10, 2024, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Architectural, Engineering,
and Interior Design Services for the Pickleweed Branch Library Re-Design Project. On February 8, 2024,
six proposals from qualified firms were received. The proposals were evaluated and three firms were
invited to interview with City staff based on criteria specified in the RFP, including but not limited to,
completeness of the proposal, understanding of the project, ability to meet deadlines and operate within
budget, relevant experience and success in similar projects, experience and quality of project team, cost
and value, and references by former clients on similar projects.
City staff found Jayson Architecture P.C. (“Jayson”) and their sub-consultants to be the most qualified for
this project. Jayson submitted a proposal to perform architectural, engineering, and interior design
services, which staff has reviewed and found to be complete and within industry standards.
The recommended professional services agreement with Jayson (Attachment 1) will provide project
management and coordination services, schematic and design development, construction documents,
bidding and negotiation support, and construction administration. The design phase of this project is
estimated to take approximately a year, with construction starting in Summer 2025, and project
completion by Spring 2026.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
As the project will be an interior remodel, the City will be eligible for a categorical exemption from
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Staff will file a notice of exemption with Marin County for
the Pickleweed Branch Library Re-design Project.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH:
The scope of work included in the agreement with Jayson includes opportunities for the community to
provide input on the schematic design, through both community-based outreach activities and public
presentations to relevant City Boards, Commissions, and Committees. The bulk of the community
outreach is slated for Summer and Fall 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Pickleweed Branch Library Re-Design Project is identified in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
as well as City Council’s Goals and Objectives. This agreement will be funded through existing FY 2023-
24 budget appropriations of $251,210 in Building Forward Grant ($125,605) and Memorial Funds
($125,605).
OPTIONS:
The City Council has the following options to consider on this matter:
1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into the agreement.
2. Do not authorize the City Manager to enter into the agreement and provide further direction to
staff.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement
with Jayson Architecture P.C. in the amount not to exceed $251,210.

JAYSO N
ARCHITECTURE
The renovation of the Pickleweed Branch Library is an opportunity to revitalize and re -imagine the existing
library with amenities and resources to serve residents of all ages and function as the heart of the community for
generations to come. Our collaborative and experienced team will work together with you and your stakeholders
to develop a collective vision that meets project goals, fosters interaction, and is enjoyed by employees and
community members alike.
This is the type of project at the heart of our organization. Jayson Architecture is a small firm staffed by a talented
team with years of experience working on public and community buildings, and we are excited about the
opportunity to apply this expertise to your library. Our experience includes a diverse range of library projects
ranging in size from the $500,000 renovation of the Live Oak Library up to the $35 million Santa Cruz Downtown
Mixed -Use Library. Since the firm's inception, Jayson Architecture has worked on eleven libraries, five of which
have been completed. Each of these libraries is unique in character, and thoughtfully tailored to the communities
they serve. We are also working with local library projects funded by the Building Forward Library infrastructure
grant and are familiar with the requirements and reporting that come with the grant, such as timing and dedicated
funding for infrastructure.
At Jayson Architecture we take a client focused approach to public projects, which is one of our core areas
of expertise. We believe no two projects are alike, and each is designed carefully to respond to context and
community needs. What they all have in common is a dedication to craft, detail, and design, combined with
efficient and effective project management and execution. With this approach, we provide you with the depth of
experience associated with a large established firm, paired with the attentive service and dedication to quality of a
small firm.
Jayson Architecture takes no exception to the City's sample Professional Services Agreement and acknowledges
receipt of Addendum #1.1 will be your main point of contact for the project. Should you have any questions or
would like additional information, I can be reached at the contact information provided below. We believe our
expertise in the design of libraries makes us uniquely qualified to partner with the City to realize your project goals.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
Jayson Architecture has a depth of expertise in the
design and construction of community spaces and
libraries built through years of experience working on
both new construction and renovations. The following
are several considerations that we feel will be relevant
for the renovation of the Pickleweed Branch Library.
hri o.ri tize; When working with a limited budget,
it's important to maximize those precious dollars
by identifying an achievable scope of work. Finding
a balance between needs and aspirations, as well
as setting priorities and making key decisions
will provide direction and focus. For instance, by
concentrating on achieving code compliance and
functional improvements, we can then include 1-3
aspirational design improvements that the community
will appreciate and will allow them to see their money
at work.
Flexibility: Libraries often serve many functions
today, ranging from a place for research and work,
to a learning space with active classes, or space for a
community gathering. This diversity of use requires
maximum flexibility, operable partitions, and spaces
with durable materials and surfaces intended to
withstand a wide range of programmatic uses.
;_n try: Buildings that serve the public, like the
Pickleweed Branch Library, need to provide easy,
universal building access as well as clear wayfinding
at the building entry. A key consideration will be
accessible approach, as well as direct site lines to
service points from the entry.
S e r +q'kc e P, g in t s ; Large, inflexible reception desks
are quickly becoming obsolete, as many public library
staffing levels are reduced, and the focus has shifted
towards direct and interactive supervision rather than
passive single points of public access to staff.
A co L1s s c s: The importance of interactive group
study and work space has grown for activities such
as collaborative student homework assignments,
meeting space for local non -profits and small business
start-ups, and space for small focused work brainstorm
sessions. This has created an increasing need for
thoughtful acoustic separation to create zones for
different levels of activity and noise.
Collections: Diverse book collections remain
one of the primary reasons people continue to use
libraries, however tall and dense collections are
frequently undergoing careful review and reduction
to allow more space for other uses such as technology
and flexible gathering space.
Outdoor Spaces: San Rafael experiences
moderate weather year-round, a classic example of
the temperate Mediterranean climate. We see an
opportunity for libraries to take advantage of the
outdoors as an expansion of the building program by
improving access to and expanding the functionality
of outdoor spaces, where appropriate.
Technology: The library has become the place
many community members depend on to keep them
up to date with ever evolving technologies. Critical
support infrastructure includes robust and up to date
IT and AV systems. In addition to computer labs, many
libraries are adding Maker Spaces with equipment
such as 3D printers and lasers cutters.
s t a hn ;l b ,1 Y: A commitment to the
environment is an important value to the City of San
Rafael and this value is shared by Jayson Architecture
and our sub -consultant team. Our design approach
considers the energy performance and life -cycle of
buildings, sustainable materials, and healthy interior
environments.

WORK PLAN
S rlh n tir Do i n = ,. :2
Jayson Architecture will meet with the City, Library, and project stakeholders to review your programmatic
and facility goals for the project. We will visit the site, take measurements of the existing structure as needed
to supplement the as -built drawings provided by the City, and create a set of existing drawings consisting of
plans, sections, and elevations. The project will be considered through the lens of community connectivity,
sustainability, program, zoning, building code requirements, and budget.
We will prepare a project schedule which will outline timelines for key tasks in Gantt chart format. This schedule
will be updated throughout the project to provide a clear picture of progress and key decision points.
Based on the information we receive from the stakeholders and our analysis of the site and the program, we
will prepare conceptual design layouts and options for the project. The conceptual design will be developed
into a set of Schematic Design Drawings, including Structural Engineering, Mechanical/Plumbing Engineering,
and Electrical Engineering. The drawings, consisting of plans, sections, and elevations, will generally define the
scope and quality of the project. Preliminary specifications will be indicated in room finish schedules. Computer
renderings with light, shadow, materials and landscape will be developed to show the proposed design. A
comprehensive presentation will be prepared for the City and project stakeholders to evaluate the proposed
design.To engage the community for feedback on the design approach, we will present the project in a forum of
the City's choice. Jayson Architecture will collect and document feedback, and based on your direction amend
the design as deemed appropriate.
At phase completion the Architecture and Engineering documents will be submitted to the cost estimator to
confirm the proposed design aligns with the budget for construction. Should the estimate exceed the desired
budget for the project, we will conduct a formal value engineering work session to determine a strategy to
modify the design to achieve the City's budgetary goals.
Deliverables: 3D Computer Renderings, Schematic Design Drawing Set, Schematic Design Cost Estimate
Meetings: 4 Stakeholder Meetings, I Community Meeting, and 2 Presentations to the City Library Board of
Trustees and/or Council
Duration:2.5 months
Based on the approved Schematic Design Drawings, Jayson Architecture will prepare Design Development
Drawings for the project. In addition to the plans, sections, and elevations prepared in the Schematic Design
Phase, the Architecture and Engineering team will prepare typical construction details and material and finish
schedules for the exterior and interior of the project. Project specific features will be developed in more detail,
and coordinated across engineering disciplines.
At phase completion, the Architecture and Engineering documents will be submitted to the cost estimator to
refine the budget for construction.
Deliverables: Design Development Drawing Set, Design Development Cost Estimate
Meetings: 3 Client Review Meetings
Duration: 3 months
Construction Docurnent Phas
Based on the approved Design Development Drawings, Jayson Architecture will prepare Construction
Documents for the project, including architectural and engineering plans and specifications. In addition
to the drawings prepared in the Design Development Phase, the Architecture and Engineering team will
prepare complete and bid -ready Construction Documents, including construction details and 3-part Technical
Specifications in CSI Masterformat. Supplemental to the architecture and engineering documentation, furniture
layouts and specifications may be prepared, including products, materials, and accessories.
At 65% and 95% phase completion the Architecture and Engineering documents will be submitted to the cost
estimator to confirm the budget for construction.
Deliverables: Construction Documents Drawing Set, Technical Specifications, & Construction Document
Cost Estimate
Meetings: 4
Duration: 4 months
Permitting
During the design phases, the Architecture and Engineering team will complete applicable code research to
determine limitations and permit considerations for the project. At the end of the Construction Documents
phase, Jayson Architecture will submit the project to the City Building and Fire Departments for review and
approval, as well as the other agencies as deemed required for the project scope. The Architecture and
Engineering team will respond to all comments from each respective department or agency with a clear and
concise response letter corresponding to any/all drawing revisions required for approval.
Jayson Architecture will serve as the point of contact for this process and manage the flow of communication. If
required, Jayson Architecture will meet with the Building Department to discuss technical code requirements for
the project.
Deliverables: Permit Set
Meetings:1
Duration:3 months
Bidding & A,4vard Support
Jayson Architecture will review the City's front-end specifications (General and Special Conditions) to determine
they are appropriate for the scale and type of project. We will attend a pre -bid meeting at the project site to
introduce prospective bidders to the project and answer questions. The Architecture and Engineering team
will respond to bidder's questions and prepare an addenda to the Bid Documents. We will assist the City with
evaluation of submitted bids and selection of the General Contractor. We will assist the City in the procurement
of furniture by assisting them in purchasing directly from vendors with pre -negotiated government contracts.
Prior to the start of construction, the Architecture and Engineering Team will compile all changes made via
addenda during the Bidding phase into a Conform Set for Construction. The conform set will be sent to the cost
estimator to prepare the engineers estimation of construction costs for bid.
Deliverables: Bid Drawings and Specifications, Bid Addenda, Conform Set for Construction,
Engineers Estimate of Probable Construction Costs
Meetings:1
Duration: 3 months
Construction Support and Project Close -Out Services
Jayson Architecture will attend Owner/Architect/Contractor (OAC) meetings on a bi-weekly basis for the duration
of construction. The Engineering sub -consultants will visit the site at intervals appropriate to their specific scope
of work. The Architecture and Engineering team will respond to Contractor Requests for Information (RFIs),
review project submittals and shop drawings, prepare bulletins, and review contractor pay applications.
In addition, Jayson Architecture will review and assist the City with responding to Contractor Change Orders. We

PUBLIC OUTREACH
Jayson architecture has a well-defined process and approach for public outreach honed from years of experience
working on library projects in the Bay Area. Our approach centers around the collection of qualitative
community feedback, which focuses on identifying core themes that resonate with the community. We carefully
craft questions and discussion topics that are meant to elicit thoughtful responses from the community about
goals, concerns, fears, and aspirations for the project. We also take special care to structure our community
engagement in ways that foster positive and constructive conversation between community members. We start
each meeting with the full community before breaking the larger group up into 4-6-person discussion groups.
We then ask the small group to answer a series of questions that are recorded in a graphic manner. We have
successful tools for administering this process either in person or online. At the completion of each stage of
community engagement we organize the feedback into qualitative themes that are used to inform our design.
We find this process fosters conversation, reduces conflict, and provides the community a sense of ownership
over the design and outcome of the project.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH CASE STUDY:
SANTA CRUZ DOWNTOWN LIBRARY
The Santa Cruz Downtown Library is part of a mixed -use development in downtown Santa Cruz, comprised
of a parking garage, commercial units, and affordable housing. Prior to the City's engagement with Jayson
Architecture, the City had worked with a developer to prepare a conceptual design for the site that included
these programmatic components.
The developer's
proposal was a conventional layer cake of program:
Library and commercial on the ground floor, parking
above, and four floors of housing on top. The project
is one of the largest developments in Santa Cruz's
history, and was contentious from the outset, with
opponents dubbing the project the"Taj Garage" and
campaigning with the slogan "don't bury the library':
Upon reviewing the developer's conceptual design
for the City, we knew we would have to take a
different approach to the site and the program if the
City wanted to successfully navigate the numerous
approvals and achieve public support for the project.
Our design reorients the library as the civic focal point
of the project, two floors high with clerestory windows
located prominently along the street.
r r^ V ; sty S`.� p;o r 9*_ These design changes were
explored through numerous community meetings and
stakeholder workshops, and resulted in a design that has
completed the CEQA review process, and been approved
bythe Planning Department, the Parks and Recreation
Commission, and the City Council. Critically, the project
has also survived, and thrived, despite a relentless and
organized opposition campaign orchestrated by a
small but vocal component of the community. This was
evidenced by the resounding defeat of a ballot measure
last year which would have halted the project. The
project is on track to begin construction in early 2025.
In the original concept, the library was an afterthought, barely
visible on the ground Floor of huge structure under multiple
floors ofparking and housing.
Jayson Architecture reconfigured the site and program to
better respond to the downtown context and make the library
the civic focal point of the project. The new, more human -scale
design fits the desired program elements as well as features
such amenities as a green roof and roof deck.

EXHIBIT B
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
During the term of this Agreement, and for any time period set forth below,
CONSULTANT shall procure and maintain in full force and effect, at no cost to CITY insurance
policies with respect to employees and vehicles assigned to the performance of Services under this
Agreement with coverage amounts, required endorsements, certificates of insurance, and coverage
verifications as defined in this Exhibit B.
A. Scope of Coverage. During the term of this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall
maintain, at no expense to CITY, the following insurance policies:
1. Commercial general liability. A commercial general liability insurance
policy in the minimum amount of one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence/two million dollars
($2,000,000) aggregate, for death, bodily injury, personal injury, or property damage.
2. Automobile liability. An automobile liability (owned, non -owned, and hired
vehicles) insurance policy in the minimum amount of one million dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence.
3. Professional liability. If any licensed professional performs any of the
services required to be performed under this Agreement, a professional liability insurance policy in
the minimum amount of one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence/two million dollars
($2,000,000) aggregate, to cover any claims arising out of the CONSULTANT's performance of
services under this Agreement. Where CONSULTANT is a professional not required to have a
professional license, CITY reserves the right to require CONSULTANT to provide professional
liability insurance pursuant to this section.
4. Workers' compensation. If it employs any person, CONSULTANT shall
maintain workers' compensation insurance, as required by the State of California, with statutory
limits, and employer's liability insurance with limits of no less than one million dollars
($1,000,000) per accident for bodily injury or disease. CONSULTANT's workers' compensation
insurance shall be specifically endorsed to waive any right of subrogation against CITY.
B. Other Insurance Requirements. The insurance coverage required of the
CONSULTANT in subparagraph A of this section above shall also meet the following requirements:
1. Except for professional liability insurance or workers' compensation
insurance, the insurance policies shall be specifically endorsed to include the CITY, its officers,
agents, employees, and volunteers, as additional insureds (for both ongoing and completed
operations) under the policies.
2. The additional insured coverage under CONSULTANT's insurance policies
shall be "primary and noncontributory" with respect to any insurance or coverage maintained by
CITY and shall not call upon CITY's insurance or self-insurance coverage for any contribution. The
"primary and noncontributory" coverage in CONSULTANT'S policies shall be at least as broad as
Rev. 08.22 B-1
ISO form CG20 0104 13.
3. Except for professional liability insurance or workers' compensation
insurance, the insurance policies shall include, in their text or by endorsement, coverage for
contractual liability and personal injury.
4. By execution of this Agreement, CONSULTANT hereby grants to CITY
a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of CONSULTANT may acquire against
CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. CONSULTANT agrees to
obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation, but this
provision applies regardless of whether or not CITY has received a waiver of subrogation
endorsement from the insurer.
5. If the insurance is written on a Claims Made Form, then, following termination
of this Agreement, said insurance coverage shall survive for a period of not less than five years.
6. The insurance policies shall provide for a retroactive date of placement
coinciding with the Effective Date of this Agreement.
7. The limits of insurance required in this Agreement may be satisfied by a
combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall
contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and
noncontributory basis for the benefit of CITY (if agreed to in a written contract or agreement) before
CITY'S own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
8. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance
proceeds broader than or in excess of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or
limits shall be available to CITY or any other additional insured party. Furthermore, the requirements
for coverage and limits shall be: (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this Agreement; or
(2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds
available to the named insured; whichever is greater. No representation is made that the minimum
insurance requirements of this Agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the
CONSULTANT under this Agreement.
9. CONSULTANT agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party
involved with the Services, who is brought onto or involved in the performance of the Services by
CONSULTANT, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of CONSULTANT,
except as with respect to limits. CONSULTANT agrees to monitor and review all such coverage
and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the
requirements of this Agreement. CONSUTLANT agrees that upon request by CITY, all
agreements with, and insurance compliance documents provided by, such subcontractors and
others engaged in the performance of Services will be submitted to CITY for review.
10. CONSULTANT agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used
by any party involved in any way with the Services reserves the right to charge CITY or
CONSULTANT for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any
08.22 B-2
such provisions are to be deleted with reference to CITY. It is not the intent of CITY to reimburse
any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse
against CITY for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
C. Deductibles and SIR's. Any deductibles or self -insured retentions in
CONSULTANT's insurance policies must be declared to and approved by the CITY and shall not
reduce the limits of liability. Policies containing any self -insured retention (SIR) provision shall
provide or be endorsed to provide that the SIR may be satisfied by either the named insured or CITY
or other additional insured party. At CITY's option, the deductibles or self -insured retentions with
respect to CITY shall be reduced or eliminated to CITY's satisfaction, or CONSULTANT shall
procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims administration,
attorney's fees and defense expenses.
D. Proof of Insurance. CONSULTANT shall provide to the PROJECT MANAGER
all of the following: (1) Certificates of Insurance evidencing the insurance coverage required in this
Agreement; (2) a copy of the policy declaration page and/or endorsement page listing all policy
endorsements for the commercial general liability policy, and (3) excerpts of policy language or
specific endorsements evidencing the other insurance requirements set forth in this Agreement.
CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from
CONSULTANT. Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise it
later. The insurance shall be approved as to form and sufficiency by the CITY.
