This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and governed both as to validity and to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of San Bernardino, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.
In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, Eastern Division.
7.2 Disputes; Default.
In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for t he default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period Page-14
of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on the invoices only when the default is cured. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
7.3 Retention of Funds.
Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’ s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any Party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any Party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement. Acceptance by City of any work or Services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non- defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.
7.6 Legal Action.
In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or Page-15
injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.
7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.
This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Consultant, the period of notic e may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contr act Officer. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all Services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer.
Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all Services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any Services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the City need not provide the Consultant with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.8 Termination for Default of Consultant.
If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and Cit y may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set -off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.
ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION
8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

8.2 Conflict of Interest.
Consultant covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Consultant’s performance of Services under this Agreement or any individual Task Order subsequently awarded.

Some of the public agencies we have provided services for include the City and County of Los Angeles, The County of Orange, Various Community College Districts throughout California, and multiple airports, such as LAX and PSP.
At LAX we have over 15 years of experience on various projects under multiple On-Call Contracts. Projects range from restroom renovations, to ADA upgrades, to tenant and office spaces, to terminal building improvements for security and passenger improvements. Recently we have provided services for the recapitalization of EDS machines in the T5 baggage handling system and created designs to upgrade the passenger arrivals experience around the central terminal area of LAX.

FIRM AND STAFF QUALIFICATIONS
About Gensler
Fast Company magazine called Gensler “one of America’s
most influential design firms.” Michael J. Stanton, FAIA, former President of the AIA, said “Gensler is America’s foremost collaborative practice. The firm exemplifies how the creative mix of disciplines, all with ‘place’ as their focus, adds richness and value to buildings and their settings.”
Gensler supports the development of innovative places with a philosophy of value-based design and comprehensive services that allow clients to collaborate with a continuous, dedicated team from planning through construction. We have organized and integrated our services to support clients at every stage in the real estate and facilities cycle, from initial strategy and design through implementation and management. We focus on understanding our clients’ goals and strategies, and seek to add substantial value to their enterprises through our work and services.
Since our beginning, we have been committed to the
community and building our local practice with our knowledge from around the globe. We’ve helped local entities and
companies use design to strengthen and enhance their
business goals. We have created brands and identities,
designed workplaces, and converted outdated spaces into vibrant facilities, all while finding new ways to enhance the way people work and play. We have been at the forefront of forward-thinking design for innovative workplaces, health & wellness facilities, hospitality environments, retail communities, headquarters, transit facilities, mobility hubs, city planing and much more.
Ability to Provide On-call Services
Gensler has provided On-Call services for several government agencies since our inception in 1965, and we understand the unique nature of such contracts. Established by agencies or cities to give them the ability to quickly start a design task, these agreements allow municipalities the power to quickly begin such improvements/modifications/renovations without investing considerable time in the advertisement and evaluation of multiple bids for the needed services. Our ability to provide on call services is based on:
Availability and Locality of Staff - The primary staff identified for this contract are all located within a 2 hour drive of the City of Rialto and can be reached quickly through phone or
email. They have many years of experience and understand how to prioritize and organize their overall work load to meet the needs of clients and stakeholder groups.
Responsiveness - Staff identified for this SOQ have worked on On-Call assignments in the past and understand that
responsiveness is key to building relationships. Successful projects are not only measured on their visual attributes or support of functional needs, but also the process experienced by the client from start to completion.
Tools that connect us - We have connected to our clients and staff through the use of on-line tools such as BIM 360 to host our documentation models, Miro for design collaboration, Teams to keep us connected and manage our work flow, and Zoom for video calls and virtual presentations. Our robust network gave us the ability to easily transition to the work from home model and will continue to support us as we move into the hybrid work environment.
4 Gensler | City of Rialto
Experience with a wide range of project types - As identified in the individual resumes, the staff proposed for this contract have provided services for a wide range of project types and sizes. It is not uncommon to be called upon to prepare a study to evaluate the feasibility of a project while also preparing construction documents for another. Examples of project types and sizes. It is not uncommon to be called upon to prepare a study to evaluate the feasibility of a project while also preparing construction documents for another. Examples of project types that we have prepared for on-call services included seismic analysis for existing buildings, concept designs for expansion of existing facilities, accessibility upgrades, interior renovations of office space, and new public buildings (City Offices, Civic Recreation Spaces, Libraries, Maintenance Facilities).
Problem Solving Skills - We are often called upon to provide an outside view to solve a space driven need, improve
functionality, or address an issue that has been given low priority for many years. As architects we value developing multiple solutions and then evaluating them with you to find the best fit for your need.
The most important challenge is to
remember the essential purpose of the
assignment. We are not always asked to use
our talents to design a building, but more
often we are asked to find creative solutions
quickly for pressing needs. We believe we
have the talent and skill to excel at these
assignments.
Experience with processes, approvals, and
procedures with On-Call Services
Process and protocols are a significant part of working with civic agencies. Through our on-call contracts, we have worked with various project approval teams to seek project approval as well as being the team the reviews the work of other architects and designers. We understand that our direct client may have internal clients that need separate presentations and reports prepared for approval within an organization. Similarly, we have worked on behalf of one internal department to help another department with a design project.
On-Call Professional Architectural Services RFQ#22-044 5 All of these situations required us to understand the processes needed for review, approval, funding, inspection, construction, commissioning, and close-out of the projects. We plan to work closely with the City of Rialto to identify the best process for each project and to identify the key internal and community stakeholders for each project .
In most cases, our work will start with summarizing the basic project definition provided by the City. This first understanding will take the form of a brief memo for the client and then will be fleshed out to create a full proposal with a project description, scope of work, schedule, consultants to be included, and fees for the work.
As the proposal is being developed, we will identify and make ready our internal staff resources for the upcoming project so we can start working as soon as we receive the notice to proceed.
Beyond the key staff we have identified to lead the potential on- call assignments, we have identified a wider group internally to call upon their expertise when needed.

LIST OF RECENT AND ONGOING
ON-CALL SERVICES
Key to Gensler’s project approach is developing working relationships with the approval agencies that have jurisdiction over our projects. We meet with officials early in the design process to discuss code and planning related issues. This allows us to flush out any potential problems, identify early solutions, and obtain support by all parties involved, which ultimately results in a smoother permitting process. Follow- up meetings during design further ensure that permits will be issued in a timely manner. This approach has been carried out at Gensler by dedicated staff members who have spent years developing an expertise in permitting negotiations and code analysis.
Our integrated project approach provides comprehensive code compliance utilizing the following tools by our staff:
• Quality Assurance Form
• Construction Document Checklist Forms
• Building Code Analysis Forms (Interior & Architecture • Project Architect Forums
Frequently, changing codes and regulations requires Gensler to continually update its code knowledge base. As a resource to our clients we provide the following range of services:
• Code compliance information
• Governmental representation/conflict resolution Identify early solutions and obtain support by all parties involved Use creative permit strategy to expedite projects and start construction earlier than scheduled.

Unique and Critical Issues with Architectural
Services in City of Rialto
The City of Rialto is a diverse community of 100,000 people located within the strategic transportation crossroads of south western San Bernadino County. Like many cities in Southern California that experienced their greatest growth in the latter half of the 20th Century, Rialto has a range of public buildings with different uses, age, construction types, and architectural expression.
Managing a diverse portfolio of buildings and services can be challenging, especially when they need expansion or alteration and funding sources that have been obtained in prior budget years, may not always cover the current scope of work. When faced with decisions about what to enhance and what to set aside, it is always beneficial to reflect on the core values that have been developed by a community to define the future.
Rialto’s values show a city that is focused on the well being of its citizens and a dedication to creating a place where they can live and flourish in an attractive environment that provides opportunity. This lens will be very helpful when making decisions about the extent of a project, the phasing, or the features to be included. Through the application of these values and the use of imagination and creativity, we can work together to design and implement projects that have meaning and
purpose to the community.

FIRM AND STAFF QUALIFICATIONS
Quality Assurance
Gensler has a carefully developed and documented quality assurance program (QA) that is used on all projects so that each will conform to the highest standards of excellence, efficiency, reliability and safety, and cost effectiveness. This program is administered by the Project Manager, who will monitor the production-level activities of the Gensler team.
Our QA program describes methods for developing, preparing, coordinating, checking, verifying, reviewing, approving, issuing, revising, and filing design, construction, procurement and other project documents. The QA program includes both a body of standards and procedures, and a training component to ensure that all professional staff are aware of and use these standards.
The objective is to ensure that every project meets these standards and that schematic design, design development, and contract documents contain concise, complete, and well coordinated information.
Rigorous Follow Through
Our approach to all interactions with the project team is rooted in a commitment to an iterative process that hinges upon an adherence to rigorous follow-through. We are committed to a “feedback and feed forward” approach: we generate issues and possible directions with the project team, research them, bring information back, and develop strategies and policy recommendations with their input—all while maintaining a watchful eye on the schedule and budget.
Effective Documentation
Throughout the process our team systematically documents findings through written questionnaires, meeting notes, digital photographs, and research memoranda. This documentation allows us to effectively share information across the team, and stakeholders as needed. It also allows us to identify issues that require further research as each concept alternative is developed. Keeping the Project on Schedule
Project Delivery
We pride ourselves in collaborating with engineering firms and consultants that have similar operational goals and objectives.
We understand the calibre of the team is paramount to the project success; and we choose consultants with a proven track record who would assume responsibility not only for their own performance, but also for the performance of the team as a whole. This approach allows us to leverage the entire team’s collective skills and competencies to minimize cost and maximize the quality of the services to be delivered. Together, we strive to deliver total customer satisfaction. Should the project schedule be delayed by a consultant team member, the City of Rialto would never bear the costs to bring the project back on schedule.
Schedule
Schedule control is collaborative. We are committed to on-time delivery of every project, just as you are. We have an excellent track record in schedule control, which we maintain by keeping timing issues at the forefront of the design process, resolving key issues at the appropriate times, keeping changes to a minimum, and predicting where changes are likely to occur.
Building on that knowledge, we will develop a specific project approach that defines each project and outlines the most appropriate ways to implement. Scheduling can have significant 8 Gensler | City of Rialto
impact both on construction cost and operations, and the key to a successful project is to start the project correctly and efficiently.
Controlling Project Cost
The most important aspect of creating predictable costs for a project is setting a budget that reflects the local construction market, is based on the true overall scope for the project, includes escalation, accounts for the cost of money over time, and includes all three contingency types: Owner, for additional scope, Design, for the evolution of the design, and Construction to be used by the client to address unknown conditions.
Once the budget has been set by the client, and shared with the design team, then the designers can select assemblies and elements based on the cost goals and work with the
client for their buy-in regarding the cost of the project. In the early phases of the project, an outside cost estimating firm is invaluable providing feedback to the design team in the design phases. At minimum an estimate should be created at the schematic design and design development phases of the project. If possible a final estimate at the completion of the construction document set should be prepared to evaluate the construction bids against. During the interim phases, the architect and client team should pay careful attention to the design and cost information in order to stay in conformance with the budget goals. During the construction phase, the owner and the architect are often under pressure by the contractor to make changes that are presented to save money.
It is often the case that these changes end-up compromising the project in some areas to make-up for missed items or poor bidding conditions. It is paramount for transparency in the bidding, construction cost evaluation, and payment systems of the project to maintain the integrity of the project.

4. Identify the user groups, stakeholders and formal
client that will be responsible for decision making.
5. Identify the budget that the client agency has
allocated for the project. At the start of and On-Call
task, the client has usually decided to move forward
with design based on an initial internal estimate
of the overall cost for the project. As the project
develops and tracks back to the budget number,
adjustments to scope are often made to stay within
the established constraints. Sensitivity to the budget
is one of the most important aspects of the design
process, especially for task based on-call work.
6. Obtain / create a proposed schedule for the task.
For simple projects this will take the form of a bar
chart or a written description. For more complex
projects, a design schedule can be prepared in
Microsoft project. The detail that is included in each
schedule will vary with the size, needs and aspects
of the project. Milestone dates are often provided by
the clients need to have a facility operating by a pre- established date.
7. Develop a fee for the proposed project based on
the scope, schedule and consultants needed. For
each of the scope elements and / or phases of the
project, a fee will be created. The fee can be based on milestone deliverables or by tasks if it is a simpler
project. Also at this stage reimbursables expenses
will be projected.
The fee will be develop by employing various bench-
mark approaches to ensure the best value is being
provided. First, project roles will be identified based on the needs of the project that are shown in the
scope and approach.
This is where we estimate the amount of time needed
for each role based on the need for each individual
skill. We will then estimate the hours per week
needed by each role, for each phase, and calculate
the fee required to support the team. A second check
will be made by looking at bench mark costs based
on a percentage of the fee and/or a cost per square
foot. The work load estimate will be compared to
the % cost and cost per square foot method to make
sure that the fees are in line with general industry
standard for fees.
As the architectural fee is being developed, we will
reach out the consultants needed for the scope of
work and share with them the information that has
been developed so they can prepare a fee that is
compatible with the scope requested
8. Allocation of resources. As mentioned above,
we are creating a large group of staff that will be
familiar with the contract and the type of work that
will be considered under the on-call so that they we
can respond with a team to the assignments as they
come-up.
Below is an outline of a methodology that we use to create budget and allocate resources for an assignment.

SCOPE OF WORK | Approach and Methodology
24 Gensler | City of Rialto
In addition to our process map for completing
a scope of work, we have individually
addressed the questions proposed in
the SOQ to flesh-out our experience and
provide examples that respond to the issues
presented.
1. Leading a team to prepare architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, safety systems, landscaping and other drawings as needed for new infrastructure,
upgrades or improvements for City buildings and structures.
Designing buildings, creating construction documents, and participating in the construction process is a core service of our firm. Every project we work on involves collaboration with a consultant team to create the design and its implementation package and leadership to make sure that the vision
established at the early stages is embodied in the final product.
For many years we have provided services of this nature various organizations ranging from interior refurbishments to new buildings with signage and landscape improvements.
A recent example of a project prepared under an on-call contract that required our leadership to coordinate the design of a consultant team for a city building is the T5 EDS Recapitalization project for LAX. The main scope of work for this project is the replacement of EDS screening equipment within the baggage handling system of Terminal 5. The project team includes, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, IT, structural and baggage handling consultants. The Gensler team worked with the client and stakeholders to identify the scope of work and prepare design and construction documents for review, approval and construction of the project
2. reparing conceptual drawings, plans and renderings as may be requested by the City for projects being contemplated or visioning sessions with the community.
Currently we are working on a conceptual study to improve the passenger experience at the arrivals curb and introduce landscape elements across the Central Terminal Area (CTA) at LAX. This project relies upon 3-d sketches and renderings to communicate the look and feel that is being developed as well as identify the potential renovations. This work will eventually be used to communicate to the stakeholder community to
obtain approvals as it moves further into the design process.
3. Moving assigned projects through all City entitlement processes, including but not limited to, architectural review, planning approval, building & safety, engineering and
construction, including City Council approval if applicable.
Creating a great design is only part of the process.
Communicating the design and obtaining regulatory approval is just as important in the realization process. Although this process can take many forms, with different cities and process approval paths, our team has deep experience working
obtaining approval from the building review side as well as the up-front entitlements process.
4. Providing architectural services for designated historical buildings, as well as new construction, alteration and
renovation projects on historic sites. This includes project design, research, evaluation, planning, handicapped
accessibility, and engineering services (civil, structural, MEP, land surveying, etc.) incidental to the project.
As part of our last an on-call contract with the City of Palm Springs, we prepared an assessment of the Plaza Theater, working with engineering consulting team, and the Historic assessment consultant the report identified the deficiency of the building that need to be addressed and a vision for the future of the theater. In addition to this project, our larger firm has provided services for many historic structures throughout the US. We can call upon these experts for their insight and support with the project in Rialto.
5. Attending meetings and preparing presentations for staff reports to City advisory board, commissions, and the City Council as warranted or directed by the City Manager or his/ her designee.
Through our work at Palm Springs International Airport, we have presented to the City Council, The Architectural Review Board, The Airport Commission and various community groups.
Most recently, for our work on the proposed Consolidated Rental Car Facility for PSP, we made presentations to
the Airport Commission, Rental Car Companies, and City
Management. We also have many years of presenting and
working with City Boards, Councils and Committees.
On-Call Professional Architectural Services RFQ#22-044 25
6. Preparing feasibility studies for new, renovation, and alteration projects.
As noted above, we have prepared a feasibility study for the Plaza Theater. Additionally we have most recently prepared a peer review study for the an upcoming concessions program at LAX. Through the assistance of a commercial concessions consultant we proposed physical changes to the design
(enlargement, relocations, and realignments) to encourage a greater spend per passenger and provide an appropriate commercial offering for the identified end users of the terminal
7. Preparing facility assessment, studies and/or audits to determine compliance with various federal, state, and local regulations (ADA, Building Code, Fire Code, energy efficiency, etc.)
Although this is not a central focus of our work, we have in the past reviewed existing conditions for compliance with current codes. This is most often in relation to accessibility issues, potential structural issues or deficient buildings systems. More often we are involved in addressing these types of issues with renovation projects we are asked to undertake. For LAWA we have prepared structural assessments for buildings on their campus and addressed accessibility items.
8. Preparing reports for preliminary documents, working drawings, permitting, construction drawings, specifications, bid documents, and construction cost estimates.
As discussed here in this section, this team has a tremendous portfolio of projects that have been designed, documented, and successfully constructed.
9. Coordinating with a sub-consultant to provide plans and construction drawings for the installation of fire sprinklers and fire alarm systems in new or existing buildings. This may be part of a larger project or a standalone project to install fire sprinklers and fire alarm systems in an existing building.
Fires sprinkler and fire alarm systems are a specialty design- build construction element. Nearly every project we have worked on requires these systems, or if it is a renovation, then an expansion or modification of the system is required. From the design perspective, we strive to create ceiling systems that can accept these devices and support the design goals for the SCOPE OF WORK | Approach and Methodology
26 Gensler | City of Rialto
space. We have worked extensively with our MEP Engineers to give us guidance on the placement and the overall equipment that is needed, but the final installation is the responsibility of the design-build specialist. We have worked with these specialist and their process to make adjustments that meet code and balance design. Over the past few months we have been working on an decorative ceiling above the entry to a club lounge where there were various levels in the ceiling and decorative lighting that needed to be adjusted for coverage of the fire sprinklers and allow for them to operate in an emergency event.
10. Providing construction advisement and/or construction management services, value engineering and advice on
projects constructed in phases.
As an architecture firm, we do not provide construction management services, but we do bring in experts to advise on the best practices for the design of our projects. Additionally, we work with contractors who can review our work in order to provide constructability feedback during the design phases.
This was an important tool when we were renovating and
expanding the connections between Terminal 2 and 3 at LAX and maintaining on-going operation. The contractor working in the filed new best the conditions and provided feedback that was provided in the construction documents to address the constraints encountered in the field.
Value Engineering is a tool that we have used with many contractors and owners. This is usually encountered in fast track projects where the contractor is underway and proposes changes that they see are beneficial to the costs or schedule of a project. We successfully collaborated in this manner on the corporate campus for Broadcom in Irvine where building systems were evaluated by the contractor and less costly options were accepted – a sub-design build project was
created for a bike storage building, a design assist scheme was established for the MEP systems, and mechanical louvers were redesigned for simplicity of installation.
It is best to establish realistic budgets before design starts, monitor the evolution of the design with periodic cost estimates and plan for contingencies.
11. Providing documentation, assist in warranty review, participate in project close-out, and provide as-built record drawings as-needed.
We have a close-out process for all of our projects. As an architect we provide record set drawings based on the changes that were made through sketches and other drawing changes issued during the construction phase and we incorporate as-built elements provided by the contractor at the end of the project into a final deliverable set.
12. Cooperating, coordinating, and communicating with
all internal City departments and divisions as necessary.
Coordinate meetings with City staff, contractors and other stakeholders as the project may require.
Communication and cooperation are an essential bedrock
of all projects. Our experience with this can be found in the many On-Call assignments and major projects that this team has completed with Los Angeles World Airports, a division of the City of Los Angeles. Many of the assignments we have preprepared represent the goals of various sub-groups within LAWA. As a point of contact we most often work through the project planning and development group. From there we
interact with their engineering department, maintenance, mobility, commercial properties and infrastructure
departments. We typically hold workshops with these groups in order to obtain their feedback at the start of a project and then check-in with them over time as the project develops.
We also interact with commission boards to present and
provide project updates. As part of our airport projects at Palm Springs International Airport, we have coordinated with internal staff to create presentations and provide updates to the Airport Commission. We have also presented to City Council and
various community groups for work at Palm Springs Airport.

REFERENCE PROJECT
Gensler worked closely with the city manager, mayor, and council to perform a feasibility study for the Palm Springs Plaza Theatre. Finding the original 1934 drawings were well preserved by the Palm Springs Arts Museum, we used the Huntington Library’s conservation team to photograph the drawings in order to help resurrect the original atmospheric theatre design. Knowing the limited budget available, we identified multiple options for scope of work, providing a wide range of potential budgets. Gensler presented to the Historic Site Preservation Board and to the City Council in November 2018, and continues to work with J.R. Roberts on fundraising efforts.
This project is a great example of the collaborative process that brought together the City and local community to preserve a landmark that celebrates the history and future of performing art in Palm Springs. As a historic assessment project, the team worked to identify key elements that were important to refurbish and enhance, while addressing current code conditions and renovations related to accessibility, structure, mechanical systems, and needed theatrical equipment upgrades.
The final report was responsive and attentive to the City’s needs, providing a comprehensive assessment of current conditions, outlining elements to be reserved and restored, addressing all building systems, and estimating potential budgets for the rehabilitation. Challenges included working within space constraints, addressing future function, and guiding decisions to meet project goals while maintaining a sensible budget.
The design team was instrumental presenting the concept to the stakeholder community to build interest and identify potential funding sources.
