Section C. Approach
Statement of
Understanding
Stewart Park is a historic gem in essentially the geographic center of the City of Beaumont. The long-standing history in the community, including The Plunge’s birth in 1960, gives way to measurable community pride and ownership. Our interest in this project is fed by that community pride. We thrive on providing the best opportunity for community input and collaboration during the design process.
The ultimate goal is a meaningful place that generates meaningful memories. In addition, the park has to function in concert to its surroundings by facilitating storm water conveyance, offering biodiversity, opening revenue opportunities, and generating educational wonders.
Approach In order to achieve transparency and inclusion in the design process with the community, we will offer three public meetings to introduce the residents to the project, evaluate schematic concepts, and refine the concept to a single alternative. Once an alternative is agreed upon by the community, City Council, other stakeholder groups, and City Staff, we will begin the Design Development Phase. In this phase, the design will be broken down into sections and developed. Materials will be selected and presented for approvals. When all components are approved, the construction documentation process begins to provide a set of drawings and specifications acceptable for bidding.
Communication will begin at the kick-off meeting with the introduction of our team and project manager. Jeff Hutchins will be identified as the point person for all communications. Bi weekly updates can be provided on progress through meetings and meeting minutes if required, or general informational emails. Clear instructions will be essential during the data gathering so as not to duplicate work or miss any important issues. Thorough investigations through survey, geotechnical, hydrological, and environmental assessments round out a solid foundation for quality design. Once all the data has been gathered, preliminary design will commence with clear, rational motives why certain design decisions were made. Construction documentation will only begin after the community and other stakeholders have bought into the design and are excited to see its fruition. 557

Jeff Hutchins has three decades of experience as a landscape architect. Jeff’s aspirations are exemplified in his development of green infrastructure on every project that comes in the door. By emphasizing “One Water,” the comprehensive approach of managing water in an environmentally, economically and socially beneficial manner, he strives to create self-sustaining landscapes. Jeff oversaw the construction of some of the most visible projects, including Vista Hermosa Park, Los Angeles River Greenway Trail, w Park, and several storm water projects funded by local ballot measures, including the LA Zoo parking lot, Westside Rainwater Park, and South LA Wetlands.
The City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation, the AIA-LA, ASLA-SCC, and APACA recognized Jeff for his leadership in storm water design at PALAPA, an annual assembly of storm water professionals. Additionally, Jeff has worked extensively with the Los Angeles and San Jacinto School Districts to provide students of all ages with access to nature to support learning as well as social, mental, and physical health. At a technical level, Jeff has established a project production method that has proven itself many times over. As new technologies and processes are introduced to the work flow, Jeff has integrated them while maintaining a standard of efficiency in project delivery. Jeff’s processes have proven themselves if an individual attempts to deviate from the production standard.
Jeff Hutchins, PLA, ASLA - Manager, Landscape Architect Vista Hermosa Park, Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority Jeff served as the Principal Landscape Architect for the 10.5-acre, urban natural park project located in Downtown Los Angeles. A project goal was to return the serenity and diversity of nature to the Los Angeles urban core. The park features walking trails, streams, meadows, and a nature-themed playground amidst native Mediterranean vegetation. The park’s sculpted topography retains, treats, and captures 95% of rainwater that falls on the site in a system that includes permeable paving, a grassy meadow, vegetated swales, and a 30,000-gallon cistern that supplies irrigation for the park. 562
Item 6.
Jeff Hutchins, PLA, ASLA - Manager, Landscape Architect La Verne Fire House, City of La Verne - Jeff served as the Principal Landscape Architect for La Verne Fire House. The project was born out of the drought years of 2011 through 2017. There was also a need to educate the public about stormwater harvesting and attractive water friendly plants. This particular fire house was in the middle of a residential area, had lots of lawn, and a high soil percolation rate. The site was a perfect candidate for the city’s agenda. The turf and spray irrigation were removed and replaced with low water use plants with drip irrigation. Water was captured off the roof down spouts and diverted to cobble retention basins. The City historically was known for the citrus packing industry, so a row of citrus trees were also installed to encourage neighborhood food production.
Other recycled materials such as broken concrete and decomposed granite were installed to create paths and seating areas. As a finishing touch, interpretive signs were added to inform the reader about the plant material.
WRD Albert Robles Center for Water Recycling and Environmental Learning, City of Pico Rivera - Jeff served as Landscape Architect for the WRD’s project.
The project design featured included demonstration gardens and demonstration miniature water way with working baffles. The Albert Robles Center will purify approximately 10,000 acre feet (3.25 billion gallons) of tertiary treated (recycled) water annually to near-distilled levels through an advanced water treatment facility.
Together, with another 11,000 acre feet (3.6 billion gallons) of recycled water, WRD will deliver 21,000 acre feet of water to the San Gabriel Coastal Spreading Grounds where it will percolate into the Central Basin. The Albert Robles Center is a 5.2 acre facility in the City of Pico Rivera, adjacent to the San Gabriel River, allowing for direct delivery of purified recycled water to an existing pipeline leading into the spreading grounds. Funding was provided through Prop 1 for $95 million, $4.3 million from Bureau of Reclamation, and $1 million from the Rivers and Mountains Conservancy. 563
Item 6.
Jeff Hutchins, PLA, ASLA - Manager, Landscape Architect Franklin Ivar Park, Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority Jeff served as the Principal Landscape Architect for the Franklin Ivar Park Project which transformed a vacant and deteriorated site into a multiple-benefit natural park with an amphitheater, nature trails, adventure play area, interpretive elements to educate users about natural resources, picnic area, and art plaza for community gathering and interaction. The park features all California-native drought-tolerant plants which provide habitat for local wildlife, shade, and oxygen and remove pollutants from the air to reduce the adverse impacts of global warming. 564

“B” Street Lift Station, City of Imperial - Public Works - Brian served as Principal-in-Charge for this project. The “B” Street Lift Station was originally constructed as a submersible pump lift station with pumps 20-FT below the ground surface. These pumps consistently clogged and required excessive maintenance. The lift station was also a constant odor problem for the City. This project constructed a dry pit adjacent to the existing wet well with new non-clog Gorman-Rupp sewage pumps. In addition, the project included oxygenation equipment to reduce odors, new shade structures, and upgraded electrical systems. WEBB also provided construction management and inspections services for this project.
Firehouse Sewer Lift Station, Olivenhain Municipal Water District - Brian served as project manager for the District’s project. The existing Firehouse Lift Station was constructed as a below grade packaged lift station within a steel enclosure.
The enclosure was failing and also represented a safety hazard for operators due to the small exit. The existing control building was also in disrepair with a leaking roof. This project included the construction of a new dry pit, with improved access, new 750 GPM pumping units, new control building, bridge crane for pump removal, and miscellaneous site improvements. Our work also included preparation of a sewer bypass plan to allow uninterrupted service during construction.
Claypool Lift Station and Force Main, City of Imperial - Brian served as a Principal-in-Charge for the replacement of the Claypool Lift Station and new associated force main. The City of Imperial was experiencing reduced pumping capabilities in a damaged portion of force main that required the replacement of an existing pump station and the installation of a new force main. The project included the removal of the existing pump station, installation of two new pumps with controls, and the installation of 3,100 LF of 8-inch diameter PVC force main. 566

Sewer Lift Station #12, Lake Arrowhead Community Services District - Brian served as a Principal-in-Charge for the Sewer Lift Station #12 project for the District. WEBB provide engineering design services associated with the design of additional emergency storage at Sewer Lift Station #12. peak flow there is approximately fifteen minutes of emergency storage in the existing wet well. WEBB designed a new below grade emergency storage vault immediately adjacent to the existing wetwell to expand that capacity to approximately one hour. The proposed vault will is located within the existing access road for Lift Station #12. The vault has an overflow weir to accept sewage flows when the sewage level in the existing wet well exceeds the high water level, a level sensor and alarm inter tied to the existing SCADA system, a bottom outlet with slide gate to drain the vault and a sloped bottom to facilitate cleaning.
Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion and Salt Mitigation Project, City of Beaumont (City) - Brian serves as Principal-in-Charge and Project Manager for the City’s project which consists of two major components:
Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) Expansion and Upgrade - Final Design The existing WWTP needs to be expanded and upgraded. The WWTP is currently treating over 75% of its permitted capacity and therefore must begin the expansion process. Per the new Regional Water Quality Control Board’s updated Basin Plan, the City must begin reducing TDS being discharged from the plant. The City completed a feasibility study to identify the best way to expand and upgrade the plant. The Plant will be converted to an MBR process followed by RO for TDS reduction. The Plant will also add screening, EQ, sludge dewatering, and drying.
Brine Line - Final Design - Brine disposal is an integral part of this project and was a key driver in the selection of this project. Without a safe, reliable, and cost effective way to dispose of the brine, this project cannot move forward and compliance with the Basin Plan would be impossible. The brine pipeline connecting to the Inland Empire Brine Line (IEBL) was determined to be the best option during the feasibility study, due to cost and certainty of operation. The brine line has been sized at 12-inches and will be approximately 23-miles long. The pipeline begins at the City’s WWTP and ends near the City of San Bernardino’s WWTP on Waterman Avenue.

Heacock Channel Design Project, March Joint Powers Authority - Joseph served as the Project Manager for Phase 3 of the Heacock Channel Design Project for the March Joint Powers Authority. The project included the preparation of final improvement plans, traffic control plans, and a hydrology and hydraulic report for approximately 3,600 LF of the channel. The project extends from Lateral A of the Perris Valley Storm Drain north along Heacock Avenue to the southern end of an existing land fill. WEBB’s services also included project management and coordination throughout the duration of the project including attendance at project design team meetings, quality control services, and all other processing of improvement for necessary project approvals.
Hemet MDP Line C, Stage 4, County of Riverside Flood Control and Water Conservation District - Joseph was the Project Manager for the Hemet MDP Line C, Stage 4 Project. The extension of the Hemet MDP Line C was an important component to provide surface flooding relief and flood protection of a predominately developed portion of the City of Hemet.
The extension of the Hemet MDP Line C was an important component to provide surface flooding relief and flood protection of a predominately developed portion of the City of Hemet. This segment of the Master Plan Facility represents the middle one third of the entire Line C System. The critical component of this project was implementing a master planned facility in a highly urbanized area of the City extremely constrained by multiple utilities. WEBB completed a Preliminary Design Report that outlined the most feasible alignment for this facility. WEBB is currently preparing final design plans and specifications for this backbone drainage facility.
Wildwood Creek Basin, City of Yucaipa (City) - Joseph served as the Project Manager for design of a multi-purpose watershed basin in Wildwood Creek in the City of Yucaipa. WEBB provided engineering services that accommodated the critical needs of the City. This project is located in the middle of a major watercourse. The watershed tributary to the project is over 4,000 acres and the creek is designated on the Flood Insurance Rate Map by FEMA. The City’s goal was to reduce 569 Item 6.
the peak flow utilizing a series of detention basins that in turn will reduce peak flow rates downstream and reduce the burden on those downstream facilities. This reduction in peak flow rates was accomplished through the removal of sediment/debris load and the attenuation of peak flooding through the use of the proposed basins. In addition to providing flood control benefits, this project also provided certain environmental and water quality benefits. To do this, the flood control facilities were developed in such a manner so the construction preserves riparian vegetation, where possible, and implements other measures for environmental and water quality impacts. In order to accomplish this, WEBB reviewed the conceptual design and provided a more precise analysis of the level of flood control protection the basins will provide. WEBB also prepared detailed hydrologic, hydraulic, and sediment transport models to determine the peak runoff rates, flood volume, and debris load.
North Indio Regional Flood Control Channel Project, Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) - Joseph is the Technical Lead for the North Indio Regional Flood Control Channel Project which is a key component of the CVWD flood protection mission in the Coachella Valley. The project will complete the link between existing flood control facilities in the north Indio area, providing increased flood protection for the region. The project consists of over three miles of concrete lined trapezoidal and rectangular channels, including numerous culvert crossings of existing and future streets.

University Wash Channel, Riverside County Flood Control & Water Conservation District - Joseph was Technical Lead for the University Wash Storm Drain Project including the planning, analysis, and design of a large diameter master plan storm drain that connects existing upstream and downstream facilities together. This project was unique in that the 2,450 LF - 90-inch RCP required for this project had to be designed to maneuver its way through a developed industrial corridor of the City. Key to this project was the coordination with local businesses to ensure construction of the storm drain minimized impacts to business operations.
San Jacinto River Stage 3 Master Drainage Plan, Riverside County Flood Control & Water Conservation District (District) - Joseph served as Project Manager for the WEBB Team responsible for reviewing the current hydrological model, analyzing potential alternative models, and working with the District to decide the best option based for the current Master Drainage Plan. This project consisted of preparation of conceptual drawings for the Master Plan addressing all key elements such as floodplain management, flood control features, environmental preservation, development opportunities, effects on regional infrastructure, right-of-way requirements, and order of magnitude cost. WEBB worked directly with the District to prepare the planning study, coordinated with all stakeholders, and presented all findings to the Advisory Board with recommendations for the next steps (i.e., MSHCP compliance, CEQA strategy, land development constraints, and floodplain management). WEBB is currently working on the final MDP and EIR for the District.

Jeff served as Landscape Architect for MRCA’s project. This project was a
10.5-acre, urban natural park project located in Downtown Los Angeles.
A project goal was to return the serenity and diversity of nature to the Los Angeles urban core. The park features walking trails, streams, meadows, and a nature-themed playground amidst native Mediterranean vegetation. The park’s sculpted topography retains, treats, and captures 95% of rainwater that falls on the site in a system that includes permeable paving, a grassy meadow, vegetated swales, and a turf area that is a retention basin and a synthetic soccer field with a drainage system that collects to a 30,000-gallon cistern supplying irrigation for the park.

The Baldwin Hills community endured many months of writing to their council district to help resolve some of the issues they had with traffic, dysconnectivity, graffiti, vandalism, speeding, and other environmental concerns. The council district instructed the community to develop a Greening Study to outline the issues that needed attention. They initiated the help of the Los Angeles Neighborhood Initiative (LANI) to find a consultant that could write a Greening Study. LANI called us to help them write the definition of a Greening Study in order to put out an RFP asking for those services. We ended up winning the project and provided about 7 proposals in the Greening Study that was presented to the Council District. We had numerous meetings with the neighborhood groups to pinpoint their issues of concern. Once the issues were identified, we looked at Green solutions (as they were defined at the time) to solve the issues.
Connectivity problems were addressed by suggesting a bridge over La Brea to Kenneth Hahn park similar to the one over La Cienega. Bike lanes along La Brea were introduced with protective barriers for safety and an elevated sidewalk along the slope on the east side to connect the north and south neighborhoods. Planted medians provide some shade and an opportunity for storm water capture. Retaining walls that were commonly hit with graffiti are planned for rebuilding with material that is usually not tagged such as keystone systems, gabions, or green walls.

The Duck Pond was Phase III of the Hillcrest Improvements. The original pond was a concrete lined basin that was filled with both storm water runoff and domestic water. It had fallen into disrepair due to cracking concrete and low use volume. It was kind of a shoulder of the park that was forgotten. Too much domestic water was being used to fill it up so it was stopped. A moderate trickle of water continued to flow through it due to the golf course and residences up stream of the pond. The purpose of the improvements was to first restore the pond to a more natural state. Most of the concrete was removed and flood gates were designed to hold back some of the storm drain run off. Native plants that attract duck habitat were installed along with water loving plants in the stream to help clean the water. Seating, trees, and improvements to the historic bridge were made to help bring people back into this area.

The Great Lawn was Phase II of the Hillcrest Master plan to be implemented.
The existing great lawn of this WPA era park was used as a maneuvering field for the military during Veteran’s day events. It is the main visible feature of the entire 31 acre park off Harbor Blvd. While it is highly visible, access is difficult.
There were only about 3 parking stalls next to the lawn. The fountain had fallen into disrepair and filled with dirt. Seating was limited for the events and the over-all aesthetics were diminished. The purpose of focusing on this section of the park first was to gain public support of continual funding to complete all of the phases in the master plan. We coordinated with the city parks department, community park advocates, veteran’s groups, and city council to come up with a comprehensive plan. A bridge over the existing creek was proposed to connect Harbor Blvd. and the shopping center to the park both visually and physically. It was designed wide enough to provide enough room for food carts or other pop-ups for events held at the park. Stone work was designed to match existing WPA era stone. It is very difficult to see where the existing stone work stops and the new begins. The historic fountain was also brought back to life with new internals that produced the same water effects as seen from photos of the 30’s and 40’s. Colored lighting was included in the fountain per historic photos. Lighting was also added to the pathways and trees. 576

Green Valley Park will be the largest park to date in the City of Perris. At 30 acres, this park will serve the southern half of the city. It will be successful by not only being used efficiently and being a popular destination, but by being a functioning park that gives back. We are proposing some green infrastructure that will help with storm water management. The park’s location to the San Jacinto River lends itself to local flooding during a large event. While it has been rough graded to maintain a 100-year flood event, the challenge was to design without the park looking like a detention basin. The perimeter of the field is designed to divert flow away from the play area, reducing the amount of sediment while increasing percolation. We also want to increase biodiversity to attract uncommon visitors to sports parks such as birds and bugs, and the people that study them, such as students and nature observers. Park sites with more biodiversity produce healthier plants requiring less water and maintenance.
Establishing a culture, or a sense of place for the park is important for continued visitation. Drawing from the local airport and San Jacinto River as inspiration gave way to flowing lines to start detailing the park elements. This inspiration is realized in the walkway layout, restroom/snack bar, maintenance building, shade structures, discovery playground, skate park, and ultimately, an overlook observation deck. The deck cantilevers out from the upper level over the playing fields revealing an optimum location to spectate the games. The deck is also adjacent to an event lawn space for smaller concerts or large group gatherings. The lower baseball fields were designed with plenty of space between the fields for teams to gather waiting for their games, or for small events where push carts or booths could set up for festival events. Lighting throughout the park enables extending festivities into the evening. Trail connections are also provided to connect the exercise circuit in the park to the regional systems along the drainage channels that eventually lead to the San Jacinto River.
Currently, the park has an $11 million budget, and we are assisting the City of Perris to acquire another $5 million in grant funding for new park land.

CONCEPTUAL PLAN ANALYSIS
As part of our commitment to the success of this project and as part of our proposal response, we have assessed the City’s draŌ park concept plan by analyzing the park program elements and relaƟonship to each other, the park’s forms, aestheƟc, and sense of place, the park’s funcƟon, and the park’s annual historic Cherry fesƟval and Freedom FesƟval.
Please note, these are preliminary ideas that we prepared to illustrate design concepts to the City as part of our proposal and approach. They are not intended to convey the final design of the park. Once selected for the project, our team will work with the City and community to prepare the final park design taking into account all the City’s goals and objecƟons as a coordinated team player with the City.
C. APPROACH
MulƟ-Purpose Field and Concert
Venue (south-park)
The south-secƟon of the park has
the opportunity to be a mulƟ-
purpose field, concert venue, and
fesƟval venue while also feeling like
a “town square”. This great lawn
may be bordered with an oval, tree-
lined concrete path great for exer-
cise, walking, and ADA access
flanked by adjacent picnic areas and
park benches that can be used dur-
ing sporƟng events, concerts, and
passive recreaƟonal Ɵmes. Land-
scape berms and evergreen trees
may frame the bandshell stage while
screening the loading/service area.

Playground and Picnic Grove (mid-park)
The mid-secƟon of the park has the oppor-
tunity to serve as an extension of the
great lawn for events and recreaƟon while
becoming less formal through a meandering
concrete path. The playground and addi-
Ɵonal picnic areas may be located among
the exisƟng grove of trees, and the skate
park moved west along the park edge so it
does not break the flow of the lawn area.
A restroom centered between the south
and mid park may be conveniently located
to serve the mulƟ-purpose field, play-
ground and picnic grove, and skate park.
Splash Pad, Playground, and Nature Play
(north-park)
The north-secƟon of the park has the
opportunity to become more naturalized
by creaƟng a “nature play” area through
the basin boƩom complete with a mean-
dering rock-lined low flow swale, boul-
ders, and informal groupings of naƟve
trees and grasses capable of withstanding
inundaƟon during rain events. We recom-
mend siƟng the splash pad and play-
ground on higher ground out of the inun-
daƟon zone through creaƟve grading to
maintain the volume of the basin while
protecƟng those ameniƟes from flood
events. We also recommend including an
exercise staƟon north of the playground
for teens and adults. The splash pad may
include lounge-style seaƟng for parents
watching their children play as well as café
-style seaƟng and we recommend locaƟng
the restroom building between the splash
pad and playground for convenient access.

STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS
THE CHERRY AND FREEDOM FESTIVALS
The park design may be enhanced at a themaƟc level by paying homage to the historic cherry fesƟval and freedom fesƟval through colors, shapes, and plant materials. Trees such as Floss Silk Tree may be incor- porated that bloom pink/ white similar in color to cherry blossoms. Circular paƩerns and red shade structures may represent red cherries contrasted with blue play surfaces represenƟng the blue skies of freedom and our naƟon’s colors.

C. APPROACH
Joseph Castaneda (JLC Engineering and ConsulƟng) provides detailed storm water quality facility design, hydrology and hydraulic calculaƟons, and preliminary drainage studies and reports including drainage PS&E. His experience is used by public agencies and other consultants to solve complex flood control and water quality constraints. The exisƟng Stewart Park Basin has a drainage area of approximately 160 acres of watershed area. The major focus of the hydrological study will be to determine how the park/basin operate in the exisƟng condiƟon and how the basin will operate aŌer the park improvements. The basin analysis will be complicated since the overall park system between 7th Street and 11th Street behave as a series of basins. As a result, the primary objecƟve is to develop hydrology and hydraulic models that demonstrate the exisƟng operaƟon of the park/basin systems. The exisƟng condiƟon will become the baseline condiƟon as part of an impact analyses that will be required to evaluate miƟgaƟon measure re- quired to prepare the park enhancements. The goal of the project will be to design a park/basin site that improves community flooding and miƟgate potenƟal project impacts.
SPECIALTY CONSULTING
The In-Site team includes specialty sub-consultants to provide design collaboraƟon and engineered plans for the skate park porƟon (New Line Skateparks) and splash park (California Waters) scope of services.
A long-Ɵme fixture in the professional skateboarding world, Kanten Russell is a lead designer for New Line Skateparks. Growing up in Southern California—the birthplace of skateboarding—Kanten quickly became a leading figure in the region’s skate- boarding scene and was a professional skateboarder for 12 years. AŌer semi-reƟring from professional skateboarding, Kanten studied civil engineering and landscape ar- chitecture as he transiƟoned into Skate Park design professionally for the last 15 years. Kanten has led the design process of over 300 skate parks across the country.
Engineering a technologically advanced splash pad requires a thorough under- standing of the intricacies of fluid dynamics. California Waters blends their exper- Ɵse in mechanical and structural engineering with their passion for creaƟve archi- tectural design. Their focus on strategic planning and aƩenƟon to detail minimize RFI’s and change orders while maximizing the success of their projects. Their ex- perƟse in value engineering maximizes project budgets without sacrificing project vision. With an open flow of informaƟon between their service division and engi- neers, their projects perform as planned.

COMMUNICATION
In-Site excels at effecƟve wriƩen, verbal, and graphic communicaƟon. We will provide weekly meeƟng agen- das followed up with meeƟng minutes lisƟng acƟon items, responsible party, and due dates. We also excel at effecƟve plan graphics and realisƟc 3D renderings which will successfully communicate design concepts to the City staff, City officials, stakeholders, and the public.
POTENTIAL FUNDING AND IMPROVED BUDGET/ SCHEDULE
The project team recommends that during the project assessment, a storm drain soluƟon that develops re- gional benefits and meets the goals of the RCFC&WCD Beaumont Master Drainage Plan be developed for the project. This will allow the project to potenƟally obtain project funding as part of the RCFC&WCD “Request for Capital Improvement Projects”. The current RCFC&WCD management prioriƟzes project that have mulƟ- benefits and meet the following goals: 1) Ground Water Recharge, Flood protecƟon, improving Water Quali- ty benefits, Parkland and Trails, and reduce community flooding. The design team has been able to assist other project in obtaining funding through “Request for Capital Improvement Projects”. The design of this project has a high probability of receiving funding for project improvements.
Our team also recommends uƟlizing a direct cooperaƟve purchase agreement between the City of Beau- mont and Romtec (or similar prefabricated building manufacturer) for the park restroom buildings to save the City Architectural, MEP, and Structural Design fees and to improve the construcƟon schedule. This pro- vides the City the greatest value for the project by the 5%-9% cooperaƟve agreement discount provided to the City, the eliminaƟon of the 10%-15% general contractor markup, and the eliminaƟon of tradiƟonal bid design fees (which have been $60,000 on other projects) by using the direct purchase opƟon. We also rec- ommend this approach for the same reasons for the shade shelters and bandshell by having the manufactur- er prepare the engineered shop drawings and structural calculaƟons.
Task 3.2 of the Geotechnical InvesƟgaƟon scope in the RFP states “fault line evaluaƟon”, however that would be a significant cost and would require various long trenches to map the fault across the park which does not seem appropriate for this type of development since there are no habitable structures. We excluded this service from our base fee to save the City money. (This service may be added to our scope as an opƟonal item if the City sƟll elects to have the service completed.) 3D Rendering

QUALITY ASSURANCE
Accurate plans equate to accurate bidding and minimize construcƟon change orders. Thorough plan checking is essenƟal for this to occur. The quality control/ quality assurance for this project includes four steps. It is based on the ISO 9001 (InternaƟonal OrganizaƟon for StandardizaƟon) procedures for design and engineering firms.
Plans are reviewed by the plan checker (project manager or principal). All items that are checked and are correct are highlighted in yellow. This ensures that the plan reviewer has checked all items.
Incorrect items are noted in red.
As correcƟons are made by the designer, the comments are highlighted in blue. This ensures that the designer addressed each comment.
The revised plans are compared to the check set by the plan checker. If the comments are revised cor- rectly, the comment is circled in purple on the check set. This ensures the plan checker’s comments were correctly understood, properly revised, and properly printed to PDF.
The diagram below illustrates this procedure. Although the required colors seem arbitrary at first, it uni- fies the team preparing the plans and eliminates confusion on each of the stages of plan checking. It en- sures a very thorough plan check and very thorough revision checking.

“As the lead landscape architect on design and implementaƟon at the Sommers Bend Master planned com- munity, In-Site Landscape Architecture was instrumental in bringing the vision and needs of the client to reality.

We believe that every project and community has a unique ‘story’ that can be told through authentic and enduring Skatepark architecture.
To realize our unique designs, we take great pride in delivering photorealistic 3D facility modeling, animated project ‘fly-through’ experiences, and certified technical drawings to ensure complete project understanding and a thorough construction process for each park.

7 New Line Skateparks Inc. has worked extensively in the planning, design and construction of concrete skateparks, pump tracks, BMX parks, mountain bike courses and other progressive ‘casual recreation’ facilities. Although this emerging area of recreation is not new, the participation levels associated with inline, BMX, mountain biking and skateboarding have climbed to exceptional levels over the last 18 years.
The inclusion of ‘Action Sports’ in the planning process benefits the whole community by making children, youth and adults that participate in these activities feel valued. Developing a youth park strategy that includes action sports programs and facilities will introduce new experiences and challenges for a broad demographic that is often difficult to engage and/or overlooked in community parks planning.
Developing a successful youth park design requires a consultant to think and act in a way that respects the desires of future park users. This respect must be balanced with an understanding of construction tolerances, safety standards, community needs, security, and budget. NLS has a diverse and qualified staff who consistently seek new ways to achieve the expectations of the target user group while setting realistic goals, limits and dead- lines.

PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Amelia Mayberry Skatepark Whittier, CA
Kanten lead as Sr. Designer design of the new 18,000 square foot skatepark at Amelia Mayberry park in Whittier, CA. This skate plaza has a - less is more - open concept with intersecting lanes that address the request from locals to have a variety of ledges and rails. The urban style terrain pays homage to what locals enjoy skating in the streets of Whittier. Having a balance of banks and transitions for continuous open flow with a variety of elevation changes and an organic flow bowl, provides a great riding experience for beginners and experi- enced users throughout the entire skatepark.
Alga Norte Community Park Skate Park, Carslbad, CA
Kanten managed designs for the City of Carlsbad’s historical Skate Park. This park required a very inclusive community input program, which drive the design to include elements of the existing urban fabric including, a southwestern color palette reflecting the prevalent Spanish style architecture. Additionally, a tran- sition arch with a doorway was inspired by the shapes of Carlsbad’s historic aesthetic.

Corning Skate and Bike Park, Corning, CA
Kanten not only worked on the park planning and design but also public facilitation. We conducted three public meetings to refine the concept and design, presenting concep- tual design along with 3-D modeling. The Sacramento River and a grove of olive trees were the dominant elements influencing our design, and we also wanted to preserve the trees. To do this, we creatively wrapped the park around the trees, adding more green space to the facility. Our color pallet and materials were selected to represent the Sacra- mento River and mimic the color tones the olive trees. We also developed a fundraising packet for the community. Along with city funding, the project garnered local business donations. We then prepared construction documents, provided construction adminis- tration, and assisted with the grand opening that was covered by Thrasher Magazine.

EXHIBIT A – SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE PROPOSAL
STEWART PARK IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES
AND CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
City of Beaumont, CA
Dated: February 23, 2022
This scope and fee proposal is based on the City’s RFP. Upon project award, In-Site Landscape Architecture, Inc. and its sub-consultants (Consultant) will negotiate the scope and fee proposal with the City if necessary to best meet the City’s goals and budget for the project.
Project Understanding:
This scope of services and fee proposal is for professional landscape architecture and engineering design of various new park amenities and improvements to existing park amenities at Stewart Park, including the following:
• A new splash pad
• Concrete walking trails throughout the length of the park • Picnic pavilions and BBQ’s throughout the park
• New playground equipment with shade structures
• A new bandshell and vendor/street fair location
• A gaga ball court
• Upgraded skate park
• New parking facilities
• Connection of the park across Ninth and Tenth Streets • Landscaping and lighting improvements throughout the park • Incorporate Existing Drainage into the Park Layout
The existing Stewart Park is located between 8th and 11th Streets and Orange and Maple Avenues.
Per the City of Beaumont RFP, the pool facility and park pavilion have been demolished, the northern most section of park between 10th and 11th streets is a flood control basin originally constructed by the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFC&WCD) and the City owns the property and maintains the basin according to the agreement established when it was constructed. The public street Right of way on 9th Street and 10th Street between Orange Avenue and Maple Avenue has been vacated.
The existing Stewart Park Basin has a drainage area of approximately 160 acres of watershed area that is roughly bounded by Oak Valley Parkway to the north, 8th Street to the south, Beaumont Blvd to the west and Palm Avenue to the east. The major focus of the study will be to determine how the park/basin operate in the existing condition and how the basin will operate after the park improvements. The basin analysis will be complicated since there overall park system between 7th Street and 11th Street behave as a series of basins. As a result, the primary objective is to develop hydrology and hydraulic models that demonstrate the existing operation of the park/basin systems. 689
