Ali Koenig, Parks Planning Manager
City of Napa
RE: New Public Recreation and Aquatics Center
Architectural Planning and Design Services
Dear Ms. Koenig and Selection Committee,
The former Harvest Middle School site represents a rare opportunity for the City of Napa to create a shared community recreational amenity that reflects how residents of all ages gather, exercise, play and connect. Centrally located and adjacent to several neighborhoods, it is currently used by the community as an informal open space and carries both history and expectations for the future. We see this project as more than a new facility. It is a chance to shape a welcoming public asset that will enhance the quality of life for Napa’s diverse residents today and remain adaptable over time.

We understand the City’s goal to deliver a recreation and aquatics center that responds directly to community priorities while remaining realistic about cost, operations, and long-term stewardship.

The emphasis on inclusive engagement, aspirational objectives balanced with practicality, public art, and phased development all reflect a thoughtful approach to a complex and highly visible public investment. This is the type of work the Noll & Tam Architects team is well-suited to lead.

Our experience includes planning and design of public recreation and aquatic facilities for various communities in Northern California. We regularly partner with cities to guide large, multi-stakeholder projects from early visioning through council approved design, to completion of construction. Our approach prioritizes clear choices, transparent cost information, and steady coordination with city staff so decisions made in early planning remain durable in later phases.

Phase I is foundational. The community engagement effort, evaluation of alternatives, and development of a phased conceptual plan will establish the framework for all future work. We have assembled a focused team of proven partners to support this effort. WRT Planning and Design will lead landscape and urban planning, bringing expertise in organizing large, active sites into cohesive and durable civic environments. Contigo Communications will support inclusive, bilingual outreach and facilitation that reflects Napa’s diverse community. Together, our team is prepared to lead a disciplined and collaborative process that prioritizes accessibility, responsiveness, and clarity while maintaining schedule and budget alignment.

We have reviewed the Request for Proposals and the City’s draft Professional Services Agreement.

We are prepared to accept the terms and conditions as outlined, including all issued addenda. Our proposal is valid for 90 days from the submittal deadline. No subconsultant will commence work until all required insurance coverage is in place.

Thank you for your consideration. We welcome the opportunity to further discuss our proposal.

NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS
NAPA NEW PUBLIC RECREATION AND AQUATICS CENTER 03
City budgets are tight, resources
are limited, and communities
need facilities that do more
than ever before. Park and Rec
departments have to rethink
planning and design to maximize
public investment while meeting
social, wellness, and cultural
needs. In Noll & Tam’s 30+ years
of designing for communities we
have developed creative strategies,
and implemented new ideas for
facilities that deliver more value for
communities, spaces that become
greater than the sum of their parts.

AQUATICS
Noll & Tam brings many years of
experience in the planning and
design of public aquatics facilities
within multi use community and
recreation centers. These include
indoor and outdoor recreation,
leisure, splash pads and natural
water features.

We collaborate closely with
specialized pool consultants,
often Aquatic Design Group,
from the earliest stages
of programming and site
planning. This early coordination
supports realistic budgeting,
constructability, and long term
facility performance, reducing risk
for the City during both design
and construction.

Our aquatic projects are grounded
in functional and operational
planning consideration of both
recreational and competitive
team needs, security and safety,
and cost recovery. We work with
aquatics city staff, community
swimmers, and competitive
aquatics groups to align program
priorities with budget realities. The
result is recreation and aquatics
facilities that are adaptable,
maintainable, and durable.

Centennial Recreation Center
The 50,000 SF Centennial
Recreation Center in Morgan
Hill integrates a robust aquatics
program with complementary
recreation and community uses
within a cohesive civic facility
adjacent to a community park.

The indoor aquatics component
includes a leisure pool with
interactive water features,
instructional areas, and lap swim
accommodations designed to
support recreation, learn to
swim programs, and family use
throughout the year.

The natatorium environment
was carefully coordinated to
address humidity control, energy
performance, acoustics, and
spectator comfort, ensuring long
term operational efficiency and
durability. The aquatics program is
seamlessly connected to the rest
of the building, which includes a
gymnasium, aerobics room, fitness
training areas, senior center, youth
center, childcare facility, computer
lab, and a multipurpose room with
a full kitchen.

MULTI

GENERATIONAL
A successful recreation center
must serve residents at every
stage of life. This means
creating environments where
youth programs, teen activities,
adult fitness, senior gatherings,
and family events can occur
simultaneously without conflict.

Multi generational design requires
thoughtful adjacencies, acoustic
separation, clear circulation, and
flexible rooms that can shift as
programs change.

Our experience demonstrates how
carefully planned shared spaces
can support intergenerational
interaction while still providing
comfort, safety, and independence
for group, resulting in facilities
that feel welcoming, inclusive, and
active from morning to evening.

Age Well Center at
South Fremont
The Center expands the City’s
senior services into a diverse and
growing neighborhood, increasing
access to programs and daily
gathering spaces. The LEED Silver
building includes flexible activity
and fitness rooms, a commercial
kitchen, and dedicated staff and
administrative areas to support
efficient operations. Careful
attention to accessibility, comfort,
and visibility ensures it functions
as a welcoming and active hub
within the broader community.

San Pablo Community Center
Located in the civic core adjacent
to Helms Middle School and
shared recreation fields, this
community center was shaped
through a participatory planning
process that translated broad
community input into a clear and
achievable program.

The center provides indoor and
outdoor gathering environments
that accommodate daily
programming, informal connection,
and large community events.

Flexible commons spaces anchor
the building, including a tall, light
filled lobby with a small café, a
computer lab, a youth room, and
a multipurpose room that opens
directly to an outdoor courtyard.

COMMUNITY

GATHERING
Community gathering spaces
are the heart of a recreation
center. These environments need
to support daily programming,
informal connection, special
events, and flexible use across
generations. We design gathering
spaces that are adaptable, easy
to operate, and welcoming, with
careful attention to acoustics,
visibility, circulation, and indoor to
outdoor relationships.

Antioch Community Center
This 35,000 SF recreation
facility was developed through a
collaborative planning process to
create flexible, revenue supporting
gathering spaces that serve
daily programming and large
community events.

The facility is anchored by a
multi use gymnasium designed
to support both recreational use
and revenue generation. A large
community hall and adjacent
classrooms can be configured into
a single event space or divided
into smaller rooms using operable
partitions, allowing the building
to adapt throughout the day and
evening.

The design emphasizes strong
indoor and outdoor relationships,
connecting gathering spaces to
exterior terraces and landscape
while incorporating sustainable
strategies that reduce energy use
and improve comfort. Careful site
orientation and shading strategies
respond to the surrounding hills
and climate, creating welcoming,
light filled spaces that function
efficiently and serve as an active
community hub.

Cherryland Community Center
Noll & Tam partnered with the
Alameda County Redevelopment
Agency and Hayward Area
Recreation and Park District to
plan and design a new community
center serving the unincorporated
community of Cherryland. During
the concept phase, we evaluated
multiple site locations and building
size options to align community
priorities, site constraints, and
funding realities before advancing
a preferred solution.

Through a series of community
workshops and steering
committee meetings, we helped
residents define clear program
priorities and translate a broad
range of aspirations into a focused,
buildable plan. The resulting
facility provides flexible gathering
spaces designed to support
daily programs, youth and senior
activities, and large community
events. Sited adjacent to the
historic Meek Estate, the building
draws from the area’s agricultural
heritage while establishing a
welcoming civic presence that
reinforces neighborhood identity
and serves as a reliable hub for
community life.

ACTIVE

RECREATION
An important part of encouraging
wellness in a community is well
planned active recreation. Fields,
courts, gymnasiums, and outdoor
training areas must be carefully
positioned to support safety,
access, durability, and efficient
operations while fitting within
a larger town or city setting. At
the Napa site, where existing
facilities, circulation, and future
development all intersect, strategic
and creative site design will be
essential. This is why we have
teamed with WRT, whose expertise
in large scale park planning and
active recreation environments
strengthens our ability to organize
movement, adjacencies, and long
term phasing into a cohesive and
resilient recreation campus.

Walnut Creek Park
Master Plan
Our team led the master planning
and conceptual site design effort,
guiding the City through program
confirmation, site alternatives,
cost alignment, and a phased
implementation strategy before
advancing into full design.

Situated within the heavily used
Heather Farm Park, the project
required careful coordination to
maintain park operations while
reorganizing circulation, parking,
and recreation amenities. The
design integrates a 50 meter
competition pool, a recreational
pool, changing facilities, and a
new community center within
a cohesive campus framework
that strengthens pedestrian
connections and reinforces the
broader park system. Outdoor
terraces, gathering spaces, and
clear circulation patterns support
daily recreation, events, and high
volume use.

Los Altos Community Center
Designed to support the
multi generational needs and
sustainability goals of Los Altos,
this 25,000 SF community center
integrates indoor recreation with
outdoor active space. Shaped
through a robust community
process, the building is organized
around a central courtyard that
connects interior program areas
directly to outdoor activity zones,
encouraging movement and
flexible use throughout the day.

In addition to indoor gathering
and program spaces, the project
includes two outdoor bocce
courts and complementary
recreation amenities that extend
programming beyond the building
footprint. The strong indoor and
outdoor relationship supports
active lifestyles while allowing
programs to expand and adapt
seasonally.

AND REFERENCES
The following projects are
organized to reflect the core
program components of the
Napa project: Aquatics, Multi
Generational, Community
Gathering, and Active Recreation.

Together, they demonstrate our
experience delivering complex
public recreation facilities that
require thoughtful planning,
inclusive engagement, disciplined
cost alignment, and long term
stewardship.

Each example illustrates our
ability to guide cities from
early visioning and alternatives
through approved concepts and
into successful implementation.

Across these projects, we have
balanced technical performance,
operational efficiency, and
community priorities in highly
visible community settings where
phasing, daily operations, and long
term adaptability are critical.

Recognizing the importance of
comprehensive site organization
and integrated open space design
for this site, we have included
a representative project from
our partner WRT. This example
reflects our shared commitment
to cohesive planning; to align
buildings, landscape, circulation,
and recreation amenities into a
unified and durable complex..

WALNUT CREEK NEW AQUATIC AND

COMMUNITY CENTER AT

HEATHER FARM PARK
Currently under construction, the new center replaces the aging Community Center and Clarke Swim Center within the active setting of Heather Farm Park. Working in partnership with RRM Design Group, our team led the master planning and conceptual site design process, guiding the City through program confirmation, site alternatives, cost alignment, and phasing strategy before advancing into full design.

Located within a well used park environment, the project required careful coordination to maintain ongoing park operations while planning for long term replacement facilities. The final design integrates a 50-meter competition pool, a recreational pool, changing facilities, a new community center with multi-purpose rooms and classrooms, and a central atrium designed to support informal gathering and daily use.

Outdoor gardens, event terraces, and strong pedestrian connections tie the building into the broader park system.

The project demonstrates our ability to lead large scale public recreation and aquatic planning efforts, balance community priorities with operational realities, and translate a phased conceptual vision into a cohesive, buildable civic facility.

LOS ALTOS COMMUNITY CENTER
Noll & Tam partnered with the City of Los Altos to design a new 25,000 SF multi-generational community center that reflects evolving community needs and long term operational priorities. The project began with extensive engagement with City Council and a Project Task Force to confirm program, test adjacencies, and align scope with budget before advancing into design.

The resulting facility includes a large community room, three flexible multi purpose rooms, a catering kitchen, and a City operated preschool.

The building was carefully right sized to the site and program, with indoor and outdoor spaces designed to expand functionality and support a wide range of daily activities and special events. The project demonstrates our ability to translate community input into clear design direction, create adaptable recreation environments, and deliver civic facilities that serve as both everyday gathering spaces and resilient essential services hubs.

RE-IMAGINING CIVIC ST. HELENA
Noll & Tam and WRT developed a vision study for St. Helena focused on re-imagining its civic core as a connected, resilient, and distinctly local place. By aligning streets, parks, libraries, plazas, and other shared spaces, the study outlines a path to strengthen community life while responding to real pressures such as housing needs, aging infrastructure, and long-term water stewardship.

At the heart of the effort is a commitment to local character. St. Helena’s history, scale, and agricultural roots shape how residents experience their town. Planning was approached through a values-based lens, grounding potential solutions in community priorities and long-standing traditions.

This ensured that recommendations support growth without eroding the small-town qualities that define St. Helena.

The vision also prioritizes engaging public spaces that are walkable and bikeable, inviting residents to move easily between destinations.

By improving connectivity and enhancing the public realm, the plan supports local businesses, encourages healthy activity, and creates safer, more welcoming streets.

Community engagement was central to the process. The team established a temporary downtown storefront that served as an open, visible hub for the study. Residents could walk in, meet the consultant team, review materials, share ideas, and attend presentations about the process. This accessible and transparent approach made the planning process part of everyday civic life rather than a one-time meeting. It encouraged candid conversations, built trust, and allowed the study to reflect a wide range of voices.

MARIPOSA PARK
Developed in the Mission Bay neighborhood of San Francisco, the

2.5 acre urban park provides a multi-functional outdoor space for the surrounding neighborhood to picnic, play, and relax in a rich and ecologically vibrant landscape..

Born out of extensive community dialogue, the design creates a distinctive landscape of forms and elements that celebrate the heritage of the industrial waterfront and local ecology. The story of early use of the site as a railyard is told through the design of the plaza, paths, and shade structures. A trellis made of locally salvaged timbers and steel I-beams replicate the roundhouse tracks and turntable. Where spur lines once radiated, gabion segments filled with brick, concrete, and asphalt rubble collected from nearby building demolition – trace their paths.

The gabions create a unifying language of perimeter markers, field game viewing platforms, and habitat for small fauna. Trimmed in wood, gabions in the plaza become impromptu stages and seats.

Park ecology is both meaningful and character-defining. Planting promotes biodiversity through use of extensive native species that attract bird and beneficial insects. Butterflies, as inspiration for the park’s biomorphic forms and the park’s namesake, are particularly supported.

Plant species associated with the endemic and endangered Mission Blue butterfly are included. Stormwater is managed through vegetated swales and other LID techniques.

PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES

PROJECT

UNDERSTANDING AND

PROJECT APPROACH
This project represents an
opportunity to transform an ideal
site into a recreation and aquatics
center that serves neighborhoods
within walking distance while
addressing citywide needs. The
City has identified strong demand
for aquatic facilities, flexible
multi use recreation space, and
upgraded sports amenities, along
with a clear commitment to
inclusive engagement and phased
decision making.

Our approach supports the
City’s goal of developing a
Council approved conceptual
plan grounded in meaningful
community input, realistic cost
alignment ($50-75M), and long
term operational stewardship.

We will guide the process from
engagement through alternatives
and phasing, helping the City
translate community priorities into
a cohesive and buildable recreation
campus that strengthens
connection, access, and daily life.

TASK 1 Project Start -Up
As prime consultant, Noll &
Tam will provide overall project
management, serving as the
primary point of contact and
coordinating the full consultant
team. Our approach emphasizes
clear communication, defined
roles, and disciplined schedule
management from the outset.

We envision the June 1 kick off
meeting as a working partnering
session with City staff and key
members of the Phase I team,
including Noll & Tam, WRT, and
Contigo Communications. This
meeting will confirm the Phase I
scope, refine the project schedule,
and establish decision making
protocols. It will also provide an
opportunity to better understand
the City’s vision, priorities,
and expectations, identify key
stakeholders, and align our work
with previous planning efforts.

This early alignment will set a
clear foundation for engagement,
alternatives development, and
phased conceptual planning.

AGE WELL CENTER
PHASE 1 SERVICES
Phase I is the foundation of the
entire project. It establishes
the roadmap, defines program
priorities, tests site opportunities
and constraints, and sets realistic
budget and phasing expectations
that will guide all subsequent
design and construction decisions.

This phase is where community
priorities are translated into
clear direction and where
alternatives are evaluated against
cost, operations, and long term
stewardship.

In this phase, we will lead a
structured process that integrates
community engagement, site
analysis, and design exploration
to produce a Council approved
phased conceptual plan. Through
disciplined coordination and
transparent decision making,
Phase I will align aspiration with
feasibility, providing the City with
a clear and defensible framework
for advancing into detailed design
and implementation.

NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS
NAPA NEW PUBLIC RECREATION AND AQUATICS CENTER 02
Key objectives for
Task 1 include:
• Setting up communication
protocols and validate the
proposed schedule, key
dates for public meetings
and deliverables.
• An initial site visit with city
staff June 8th. This walk
thru will allow our entire
team to confirm existing
conditions and constraints.
• Following the site visit on
June 8th, we suggest an
initial space programming
meeting with city staff to
draft a wish list of space
program uses that may
want to be considered for
community input based on
city staff experience and
community input to date.
• Identification of key
stakeholder individuals and

Project Management:

Schedule and Budget
Every successful project in the
public realm is dependent on
good project management,
planning and communication
to smoothly maneuver through
the complexities of the public
process: partnering with multiple
client agencies and departments,
presenting to city councils and
commissions, engaging diverse
stakeholders and user groups, and
coordinating large design teams
of consultants, so that effective
decisions can be made and the
project progresses forward on
schedule and on budget.

Our project scope includes a
level of project management that
includes weekly check-in client
meetings during tasks 1, 2, and
3, then bimonthly meetings for
tasks 4 & 5. Jocelyn Lawrence
Barish, NT project manager will be
attending all check-in meetings,
typically with another NT team
member as appropriate.

Our detailed project schedule for
Phase 1 on the next page aligns
with key dates as noted in the RFP.

TASK 2A Preliminary
Community Engagement
We understand that the City
of Napa seeks an inclusive,
consensus-driven planning
process to support the
development of your New Public
Recreation & Aquatics Center
that addresses multiple citywide
recreational needs for Napa’s
diverse and growing community.

We recognize that one of the key
challenges will be maintaining
alignment and momentum
across multiple stakeholders and
engagement tracks, including
residents and City partners. We
will address this by establishing
a clear work plan, consistent
communication protocols, and
flexible engagement formats that
meet partners where they are.

The first set of engagement
town hall meetings will focus on
establishing a project vision and
setting space program priorities.

This task includes the full
spectrum of engagement venues
listed in the RFP- from Town Hall
meetings, both in person and
virtual, to pop ups and smaller
stakeholder focus groups.

Contigo will lead these public
town hall sessions in collaboration
with N&T, Ballard King, and WRT
who will also be in attendance.

We anticipate that Contigo will
provide consistent participation
throughout the design process.

Noll & Tam will lead the Council
Town Hall presentation with
Contigo’s support.

For effective communication
and engagement with diverse
populations, our team will employ
the following key steps and tactics:
• Empower community members
by providing clear, accessible
information about the Project
and opportunities to share
input that will directly inform
recommended recreational
facilities and programming.
• Tailor Community Engagement
by working closely with
City staff, stakeholders,
and community-based
organizations to understand
local priorities, needs and local
best practices.
• Gather information through
interest forms, virtual and
in-person, and in-language,
stakeholder meetings to ensure
project outcomes align with
Napa’s community context and
needs. We recognize that we
have to meet people where
they are, particularly given the
recent increase in ICE raids,
and work with local trusted
partners.
• Create working partnerships
with community-serving
organizations (CBOs),
neighborhood groups, and
key stakeholders to maximize
participation. By working with
trusted local CBOs we will aim
to effectively and efficiently
engage residents, especially
hard to reach groups. Maintain
a transparent and productive
two-way communications
program that places public
participation at the forefront
at all phases of the design and
construction process so that
the community continues to
support the project progress.

The values underpinning our
engagement approach are:
• Cultural Competence &
Language Access: This
involves understanding the
values, beliefs, and behaviors
of different cultures and
incorporating them into
communication strategies.

It also involves respecting
cultural differences, avoiding
cultural stereotypes, and
addressing language barriers
by providing translation and
interpretation services for non-
English speakers. By improving
access, we make achieve
equitable outcomes and correct
past inequities.
• Equity-Based Approach: Not
all communities have the same
level of access to information
and resources. We prioritize
the needs of marginalized
communities and ensures that
they have equal access to
information and opportunities
for engagement. It also means
using meeting incentives when
possible and appropriate. We
provide information bilingually
and provide non-digital
versions of any digital tools.

We factor in literacy level in
the drafting of all our written
materials, so they are as
accessible as possible to a wide
audience.
• Listening Sessions: Based
on the 2025 Engagement
Initiative results and additional
background information
provided by the City, we will
implement an array of outreach
approaches designed to gather
input in various formats,
including the use of a digital
and hard-copy surveys. All
engagement will be designed
to inform programming options
based on community needs
and desires. Intentional focus
groups will be proposed with
specific demographic groups
that may be hard to reach, such
as teens, disabled, elderly and
non-English speakers.
• We will deliver flyers to the
list of CBOs and City agencies
identified as critical for
success, and follow up with
reminder emails and/or calls
prior to each meeting. Our
high-touch outreach delivers
good engagement outcomes
because it builds trust and
demonstrates our sincere
desire to hear from everyone.

TASK 2B Topographic Survey
Overlapping the engagement
process, the survey of the property
will be completed for a reliable
drawing background for concept
design tasks. Information as noted
in the RFP will be included. This
task will be completed by Cinquini,
managed and coordinated by N&T
with the city’s input.

TASK 3 Concept Design
Alternative
Noll & Tam and WRT will closely
collaborate on concept site and
building design alternates for the
entire 26-acre site. Our designs
will grow out of our task 2A
community engagement listening
and inquiry process, firsthand
feedback from city staff, our
understanding and analysis of the
existing site and building context,
and Napa’s vision and care for the
quality of life for its residents.

This task will focus on the
physical constraints and potential
of the site, environmental
considerations, and how the
site should be shaped to have
the most synergistic impact
to proximate neighborhoods,
but also to Napa as a whole. It
will balance practicalities with
the aspirational. Engineers will
weigh in on the proposed gym
building renovations and potential
additions for cost estimating.

The designs will respond to the
space program priorities that are
established in Task 2A and how we
can find creative synergy between
flexible, multi-functional, multi-
generational spaces intended to
be inviting to all residents of Napa.

The 2nd set of engagement
sessions, which include a city
council work session and (2)
Town hall meetings, will occur in
task 3 and will focus on alternate
concept site and recreation
building designs. Pros and
cons will be evaluated, perhaps
other variations discussed, and
the community will have the
opportunity to weigh in. Noll &
Tam will lead these public sessions
with WRT and Contigo.

The objective at the end of
task 3 is to recommend one
concept design vetted by the
community and approved by
council. The selected alternative
will likely require modifications
that respond to council, city staff,
and community input that will be
studied and incorporated into a
final design option at Task 4 & 5,
the end of Phase 1.

ESTUARY PARK, OAKLAND (WRT)

NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS
NAPA NEW PUBLIC RECREATION AND AQUATICS CENTER 07
As designers, we are naturally
energized by the potential of the
Harvest Middle School site and
have begun exploring how its size,
location, and existing features
might support a future recreation
and aquatics center. With the
limited information currently
available, we have prepared
a few preliminary sketches to
illustrate how we think through
site organization and program
relationships.

These ideas are intentionally
exploratory. We do not approach
a new project with fixed priorities
or preconceived solutions.

Phase I is about listening first,
understanding community goals,
and testing alternatives against
real constraints. The sketches
included here are simply examples
of how Task 3 design alternatives
might be communicated. We
find that early visual studies can
help translate complex ideas into
accessible discussions, serving as
catalysts for dialogue and helping
the community and City staff
better understand opportunities,
tradeoffs, and site potential.

Also, it was fun to quickly ideate
with our team and imagine what
this site could become!
Some questions we asked
ourselves when we worked on
these sketches included:
• How should passive
gathering areas balance with
programmed sports facilities?
• What should the relationship
be with the elements and
adjacent neighborhoods?
• How might the future housing
component complement and
benefit from shared open space
and amenities?
• What local cultural or
environmental themes could
inform a distinctive identity for
the project?
• How can phased development
contribute to Napa’s long
term goals for sustainability,
wellness, and civic vitality?

Design Opportunities and
Considerations
As part of Task 3, we will
explore design alternatives that
respond to both the physical
characteristics of the site and
the City’s broader goals. The
following are opportunities and
considerations that will help shape
the alternatives.

Site Organization and
Placemaking
• Establishing a clear sense of
arrival and orientation for both
pedestrians and vehicles
• Creating synergy between
recreation and community
uses, indoors and outdoors
• Responding thoughtfully to
sun, wind, and climate
• Organizing zones of activity
across the site, including
coordination with the future 2.5
acre housing area
• Integrating fire access, service
circulation, and traffic flow
without diminishing the
user experience
• Strengthening connections
to surrounding residential
neighborhoods
Landscape and Outdoor
Experience
The landscape strategy will be
central to shaping the identity
and functionality of the site. Key
considerations include:
• Welcoming gathering spaces
for informal use
• Well organized athletic fields
and sports courts
• Gardens and shaded areas for
rest and reflection
• Clear pedestrian circulation and
wayfinding
• Efficient parking layout
integrated into the overall site
• Significant planting and tree
canopy to provide shade and
reinforce Napa’s character
The existing site is expansive
and relatively flat, offering long
sightlines. While this openness
supported school supervision, it
presents an opportunity to create
a more layered and engaging
landscape. Napa’s history of
orchards and tree lined parks
suggests a design approach that
introduces shade, texture, and
a sense of discovery through
carefully placed planting, gathering
spaces, and activity zones.

Task 3 Milestones and
Deliverables
• (2) concept design
alternatives for presentation
and cost estimating.
• Materials include
diagrammatic site and floor
plans, pro and con evaluation,
engineering consultant brief
descriptions for proposed
new work.
• Concept cost estimates for
both design alternates that
will be available as part of
the information presented to
council and the community
for comparison.
• Initial zoning and building
code and other relevant
agency assessments.
• LSA will prepare a
preliminary assessment of
potential environmental
considerations associated
with the Task 3 concept
design alternatives. This
early review will identify
key issues, constraints,
and opportunities that
may influence alternative
selection and phasing.
• Environmental Technical
Memorandum: LSA will
summarize initial findings
and recommend the
appropriate level of CEQA
review, such as a Categorical
Exemption, Mitigated
Negative Declaration, or
Environmental Impact
Report.
• Formal CEQA is not included
in this phase and will be
scoped and authorized
once a preferred project
alternative is defined

PHASE II SERVICES
Phase II advances the Council
approved conceptual plan into
fully coordinated, permit ready
construction documents. During
this phase, we refine design intent,
confirm systems integration, align
scope with budget, and prepare
the project for competitive bidding
and regulatory approval. Task
and phase durations noted are
estimates.

TASK 1 Schematic Design
(3 months)
Building on the approved
conceptual plan, we develop
the next level of design for
the community recreation and
aquatics center. Floor plans,
elevations, sections, and updated
site layouts are prepared to clearly
communicate the evolving design.

Key materials, systems, and
performance goals are identified,
and a detailed cost estimate is
prepared to confirm continued
alignment with the approved
budget and phasing strategy.

TASK 2 Design Development
(5 months)
During Design Development, we
refine the architectural, structural,
civil, and building systems design
to a higher level of specificity.

Material selections, accessibility
details, life safety systems, and
sustainability strategies are
defined. Updated cost estimates
are prepared to validate scope
and identify any necessary
adjustments. This phase results
in a coordinated design ready for
detailed documentation.

TASK 3 Construction
Documents (6 months)
Construction Documents
include complete architectural
and engineering drawings,
technical specifications, and
required calculations suitable for
permitting and bidding. At agreed
completion milestones, progress
document sets can be provided
for City review and comment. Cost
estimates are prepared at these
milestones to ensure the project
remains within budget. Revisions
are incorporated as needed,
including the definition of bidding
alternates, to support competitive
pricing and budget control. We
then prepare a final documents
package for Building Department
review and permit approval.

TASK 4 Regulatory Permitting
(3-4 months)
We prepare and submit required
permit documents to the Building
Department and other regulatory
agencies, coordinating responses
to plan check comments and
facilitating timely approvals. This
includes coordination related
to aquatic health requirements,
accessibility compliance, and other
jurisdictional approvals. We work
closely with City staff to support
entitlement and permitting
processes as required.

TASK 5 Bidding Support
(2 months)
We provide bid ready Construction
Documents with all permit
comments incorporated. Our team
attends the pre bid conference,
responds to bidder questions, and
issues addenda and clarifications
as required. At the conclusion of
bidding, we provide a conformed
set of Contract Documents
reflecting all addendum items.

We assist the City in evaluating
bids and reviewing substitutions
to support a fair and competitive
procurement process.

PHASE III SERVICES
(20-24 MONTHS)
Phase III supports construction
through completion and project
acceptance, ensuring that the built
work reflects the approved design
intent and performance standards.

TASK 1 Construction
Administration
During construction, we work
closely with the contractor and
the City’s construction manager
to ensure that the design intent
is implemented and project
requirements are met. We review
submittals, respond to requests for
information, evaluate change order
proposals, and conduct regular site
observations. We maintain logs of
RFIs, submittals, and changes, and
provide meeting documentation
as required. Our mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing engineers
support systems review and
coordination.

TASK 2 Project Close Out
At project completion, we
participate in final inspections and
prepare punch lists. We review
as built drawings, operations
and maintenance manuals, and
commissioning documentation. We
assist the City in obtaining final
approvals and project acceptance,
and provide finalized record
documents in required formats.

Our goal is to ensure a smooth
transition from construction to
occupancy, with building systems
operating as intended and staff
prepared for long term operations.
