[COMMITTEE REPORTS]

[COMMENTS BY VILLAGE MANAGER]

THE VILLAGE HAS MADE SEVERAL REQUESTS TO FDR THROUGH THEIR CONTRACTOR, DB INCORPORATED. I PERSONALLY BEEN OUT ON SITE WITH F DOT. FDR'S CONTRACT AND POINT OUT SEVERAL ISSUES OF CONCERN. I WAS TOLD BY FDR'S CONTRACTOR, DB. THAT THESE AREN'T WE WOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED BY NOW. BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY HAVE NOT. I PERSONALLY CONTACTED F DOT AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE CONTRACTOR IS NO LONGER IN BUSINESS AS OF LIKE, THREE WEEKS AGO, AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY WE'RE NOT SEEING. THINGS FIXED AND CLEANED UP ALONG ORFIELD BOULEVARD. WHAT THEY DID HELP DOT DID TELL ME AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WILL RESPOND TO IMMEDIATE SAFETY ISSUES. SO IF THERE ARE IMMEDIATE SAFETY ISSUES, THEY'LL DO THAT. THEY DO PLAN. THEY HAVE AN INTERNAL AGREEMENT RIGHT NOW WITH A COMPANY CALLED LOUIS BERGER. OKAY THEY THEY HOPE TO HAVE A SIGNED CONTRACT NEXT WEEK OR TWO. AND SO LOUIS BERGER BERGER WILL BE THE CONTRACTOR THAT WILL BE INTERFACING WITH.

Presentations from Shortlisted Firms for RFQ No. 2021-001 - Architectural & Engineering Services for Village Hall

MANAGER, MADAM MAYOR. COUNCIL MEMBERS. IT'S AN HONOR AND A PLEASURE TO BE HERE AGAIN THIS EVENING. WE REALLY APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE YOU. WE HAVE A POWER POINT, AND YOU HAVE A COPY OF THE POWER POINT IN YOUR HANDS. AND UM, MY WIFE, BRIGITTE IS HERE WITH ME TODAY.

SHE'S ALSO OUR OFFICE MANAGER FACILITATOR. AND SHE ALWAYS LOOKS TO COME TO THESE PRESENTATIONS WITH ME. THANK YOU FOR COMING REGIME FOR THE RECORD. HER NAME IS APPRECIATE.

KNOW YOUR NAME. I'M SORRY, RICK GONZALEZ. I'M THE PRESIDENT. AND FOUNDER OF R E G ARCHITECTS IN WEST PALM BEACH. 33 YEARS. HE STARTED IN 1988. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. WE HAVE, UM, ASSIGNED FOR THIS PROJECT. FOUR OF OUR SENIOR LEADERS MYSELF AS THE PRINCIPAL IN CHARGE. AYALA WHO IS CURRENTLY STARTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE VILLAGE OF ROYAL PALM BEACH CITY HALL.

THAT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION, SO HE'S READY TO JUMP INTO A NEW PROJECT. DR BRIAN LAURA IS

[00:30:01]

WE LOVE COMING OUT TO INDIAN TOWN. WE'VE BEEN COMING OUT HERE OVER 10 YEARS. WE'VE REALLY ENJOYED THE AREA. AND TODAY WE LEFT AT 4 45. AND WE GOT HERE. 5 30 HAD DINNER AT THE MEXICAN MEXICAN RESTAURANT AND THEN CAME OVER HERE TO THE PRESENTATION. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. UM. WE HAVE EXTENSIVE PUBLIC EXPERIENCE OVER HALF THE PROJECTS IN OUR OFFICE. OUR PUBLIC EXPERIENCE. THESE ARE JUST AN EXAMPLE OF THEM. ALL THE WAY FROM ST AUGUSTINE DOWN TO MIAMI BEACH. WE HAVE DONE CITY HALL'S FIRE STATIONS. IN FACT, WE'RE WORKING FOR MARTIN COUNTY RIGHT NOW THE FIRE TRAINING FACILITY AT STEWART AIRPORT. WE'RE DOING THAT. AND WE HAVE EXTENSIVE PUBLIC EXPERIENCE.

THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT AT THE LOCAL LEVEL BECAUSE WE'VE LEARNED A LOT OF LESSONS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT OUR GOVERNMENT CLIENTS ASKED. WELL, WHAT KIND OF LESSONS CAN YOU APPLY? TO THE PROJECT. CONSTRUCTION ISSUES, DESIGN ISSUES, PLANNING ISSUES AND SO FORTH. UM WHAT WE'VE LEARNED A LOT AT THE ROYAL PALM BEACH VILLAGE HALL. YOU MIGHT RECALL IN OCTOBER HOW WE TALKED ABOUT BUDGETING. SOMEONE ELSE HAD $200 A SQUARE FOOT AND WE SAID, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE. RIGHT NOW, THE MARKET'S CRAZY THE MARKETS MORE LIKE 400 SQUARE FOOT. YOUR TIMING IS GREAT, THOUGH, BECAUSE I THINK BY THE TIME WE START BUILDING THIS PROJECT PRICING WILL COME BACK DOWN. HOPEFULLY IN THE MID 303 $150 SQUARE FOOT RANGE. TECH QUEST, A COMMUNITY CENTER UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR THE VILLAGE RIGHT NOW, ALMOST DONE. ISSUES AGAIN RIGHT NOW, IN THE PRODUCTION LINE, GETTING A ROOF WE HAD TO SCRAMBLE WITH THE CONTRACTOR, REVISED THE PLANS AND PUT A TEMPORARY ROOF THAT WILL THEN GET THE FINAL ROOF WANTS THE MATERIALS ARRIVE. SO.

WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH STAFF. YOU CAN CALL THE VILLAGE MANAGER AND HE WILL TELL YOU HOW CLOSELY WE WORK AT A MINUTE'S NOTICE AND DEALING WITH ISSUES BECAUSE OF WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY WITH WITH MATERIALS. AND THEN MARTIN COUNTY FIRE RESCUE A PROJECT THAT WE WORKED WITH WITH MARTIN COUNTY STAFF. UM IT'S A WONDERFUL PROJECT AT THE AIRPORT TO TRAIN ALL FIREMAN'S AND FIREFIGHTERS AND. WORKING WITH DIFFERENT DESIGN OPTIONS WITH THEM HAS BEEN A VERY GOOD LEARNING EXPERIENCE THAT WE CAN APPLY TOWARDS THE SITE PLANNING AND THE SITE TO SCIENCE. WE HAD TO CHANGE SITES AT THAT LOCATIO. WE WERE ABLE TO RAPIDLY CHANGE THAT WITH OUR CIVIL ENGINEER.

AND PROVIDE A GOOD DESIGN. IT'S GOING OUT TO BID ANY DANA. ITS VALUE ENGINEERING UPFRONT.

THAT'S WHAT WE LIKE TO DO BEFORE WE GET TOO FAR DEEP INTO THE PROJECT, AND WE LOVE TO EXPLORE OPTIONS VERY EARLY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. OUR CAPABILITIES SPECIFIC TO YOUR PROJECT. WE ARE COLLABORATIVE. WE DONT HAVE BIG EAGLES IN MY OFFICE. MY DAD FOUNDED THE COMPANY WITH ME IN 1988. AND HE SAID, BEING HUMBLE IS THE BEST VIRTUE AND ARCHITECT CAN HAVE. WE WORK FOR YOU. WE WORK FOR THE COMMUNITY. I'M MOST PROUD OF MY COMMUNITY PROJECTS, AND I'VE LEARNED A LOT FROM MY DAD. AND I LOVE TO KNOW THAT HOPEFULLY SOMEDAY WHEN WE'RE 50 YEAR OLD COMPANY THAT WILL CONTINUE WITH THE NEXT GENERATION OF ARCHITECTS WERE VERY CONTEXTUAL. YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL CITY HERE, A VILLAGE HERE AND INDIAN TOWN. WE LOOK AT ALL THE EXISTING BEAUTIFUL HISTORY THAT YOU HAVE THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, THE SEMINOLE IN ALL THE OTHER HISTORIC PLACES, THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT WHICH IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO WELL REPRESENTED IN THIS ROOM.

WE ARE EXPERTS IN CITY HALLS AND COMMUNITY CENTERS. WE HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY FOR THIS PROJECT. THE GOVERNMENTAL SIDE WORKING WITH THE CITY WITH MARTIN COUNTY AND ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT ANYBODY ELSE THAT IS GOING TO BE REQUIRED TO WORK WITH? WE LOVE TO DO CONSENSUS BUILDING WE LOVE TOGETHER. PEOPLE IN THE ROOM. SHOW THEM THE DESIGNS. GET THE INPUT, REVISE IT UNTIL EVERYBODY'S HAPPY WITH THE DESIGN AND WE HAVE THE TOOLS. WE HAVE THREE DIMENSIONAL MODELING. WE HAVE ANIMATIONS. WE HAVE RENDERINGS.

WE ARE ENGAGED IN YOUR PROJECT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE END. OTHER OPPORTUNITIES LIKE SUSTAINABILITY, WHICH IS A TREND NOW VERY IMPORTANT LIFECYCLE WORKING WITH THE CITY MANAGER IN TERMS OF THE VALUE OF WHICH MATERIALS TO USE, SO THAT HAVE A LONG ENDURANCE. WE DID THAT WITH THE MARTIN COUNTY OF FIRE FACILITY. AND ALSO OUR PRIOR LOCAL EXPERIENCE. WE WERE THE ARCHITECTS FOR THE HOLY CROSS CHURCH ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO AND WE LEARN TO LOVE THIS COMMUNITY.

IT'S A VERY SPECIAL COMMUNITY AND. WE LOVE TO BUILD A SECOND LARGE BUILDING IN THIS COMMUNITY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS SLIDE HAS FOUR PROJECTS AT DIFFERENT STAGES. RIGHT NOW, THE

[00:35:02]

WHICH WOULD PUT YOU IN SEPTEMBER OF 2023, OR AS MUCH AS 26 MONTHS AGAIN. DEPENDS A LOT OF INPUT INPUT FROM BUILDING OFFICIALS FROM THE COMMUNITY FROM STAFF REVIEWS. AND SO FORTH. BUT WE'RE HERE TO WORK AT YOUR SPEED, NOT AT OUR SPEED AT YOUR SPEED. WE CAN GO AS SLOW OR AS FAST AS YOU WANT TO. WE HAVE THE PEOPLE AVAILABLE IN OUR OFFICE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. WE LOOKED AT THE SITE. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE DO WILL DO MULTIPLE MULTIPLE SITES. ONE OF THE THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THE SITE AND CONGRATULATIONS ON PICKING AN EXCELLENT SITE. IT'S A FABULOUS BLOCK. IT HAS A VERY SMALL TILT FROM THE SOUTH TO THE NORTH. THERE IS THE DRAINAGE ALONG WAR FIELD BOULEVARD. IT CONNECTS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE BACK, AND IT CONNECTS TO YOUR COMMERCIAL. YOUR GAS STATION, YOUR COMMERCIAL SHOPPING CENTER AND THE LITTLE POCKET PARK WHERE THE BUS STATION IS WHICH WE WERE JUST DISCUSSING. THERE'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY HERE. YOU CAN PUT A SMALL PAVILION IN A CORNER COULD BE A COMMUNITY PAVILION. YOU COULD HAVE A BUS STOP INCORPORATED INTO IT. ALL OF THOSE ARE GREAT IDEAS, AND WE FEEL YOU KNOW SOMETHING LIKE A TWO STORY TOWER, SOMETHING AND IDENTITY SOMETHING FOCAL. SO WHEN YOU COME IN, YOU CAN SEE.

WOW WHAT A WHAT A GREAT STATEMENT. WE'VE ARRIVED AT INDIAN TOWN. ONE OF MY FAVORITE EXAMPLES IN MARTIN COUNTY IS THE JENSEN BEACH TOWN HALL, WHICH HAS THAT ON MAIN STREET, RIGHT? IT HAS THAT PRESENCE EVEN AT NIGHT. IT'S VERY BEAUTIFUL, AND IT'S SMALL SCALE. IT'S TWO STORIES. BUT IT HAS A BEAUTIFUL PRESENCE. AND SO SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD BE NICE. COULD YOU I WANT TO SHOW YOU AN EXAMPLE OF ONE OF THE RENDERINGS WE DID FOR ROYAL PALM BEACH IN THE DESIGN PHASE TO SHOW YOU OUR EXPERTISE AND ANIMATIONS. COULD YOU PLEASE CLICK ON THE VIDEO? NOT WORKING.

THERE'S A LITTLE BUTTON AS YOU SEE A LITTLE BLACK BUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MORNING DEMONSTRATING TO SHOOT. AND IN THERE. OPEN UP A NEW SCREEN, SO WE'VE GOT TO SHARE THAT. OKAY THERE WE GO. SO THIS IS OKAY. THANK YOU, SIR. OKAY SO THIS WAS AGAIN AFTER THE DESIGN.

CHARETTE'S THE DESIGN WORKSHOPS THE NEXT SERIES OF ROCK DRAWINGS TO SHOW THE COMMUNITY THAT COULD BE TIED INTO YOUR WEBSITE. VERY EXCITING. JUST CALL ANYBODY IN ROYAL PALM. HERE'S A FLIGHT OF BIRD COMING INTO THE PROPERTY. THERE'S A LAKE ON THE SITE AND EXISTING PAVILION THAT WE'RE GOING TO RENOVATE. AND THEN AS YOU COME AND CREATED DROP UP ON A BEAUTIFUL PLAZA FOR COMMUNITY, BUT IT'S ALSO PARKING. IT COULD BE SHUT DOWN FOR A SPECIAL EVENTS. TWO STORY OFFICE BUILDING. WITH A NICE PORTICO SHARE VERY ELEGANT DROP OFF. WE WERE INSPIRED BY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT FOR THIS SITE. WE ALWAYS LIKE TO LOOK FOR THAT KEY DESIG. MAYBE IT'S SPANISH. MAYBE IT'S OLD FLORIDA AND THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT WILL DISCUSS WHEN WE HAVE THE COMMUNITY MEETINGS. AND THEN THE BIRTHDAY AS YOU'RE LEAVING THE SITE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. ALMOST LIKE. THESE ARE AGAIN JUST AGAINST SOME IDEAS. SIMPLE IDEA, ONE OF MANY IDEAS THAT WE CAN COME UP WITH FOR THE BUILDING A NICE BUILDING TOWER ENTRY FEATURE WITH THE LOGO OF INDIAN TOWN. NICE OPPORTUNITY FOR DROP OFF COVERED AREAS. SO THAT WE CAN USE THAT PARKING LOT FOR SPECIAL EVENTS. MAYBE YOU KNOW, WE ALWAYS LIKE TO LOOK AT OUR PROJECTS AS MULTIPURPOSE. MULTI USE, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE LAND IS VERY LIMITED AND WE WANT TO USE YOUR RESOURCES AS BEST AS POSSIBLE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. NOT TO BRAG THAT TAUGHT ME NOT TO BRAG, BUT WE ARE AN AWARD WINNING FIRM, AND WE HAVE A LOT OF AWARDS FROM THE ARCHITECTS AND THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION INSTITUTES OF HERE OF FLORIDA. UM, THE NEXT SLIDE IS MY FAVORITE SLIDE. UM SO SOMEBODY MENTIONED THE RODEO. WHAT A GREAT TIME WE HAD. WE CAME TO THE RODEO THAT THE NEXT NIGHT

[00:40:03]

MY WIFE AND I HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME WALKING AROUND MEETING PEOPLE. I RAN INTO THE CLOWN, AND HE SAYS THAT YOU SHOULD HIRE US, YOU KNOW, SO HOPEFULLY YOU'LL FOLLOW HIS ADVICE. BUT IN CLOSING WHY OUR TEAM WHY DO WE THINK YOU SHOULD HIRE OUR EGG ARCHITECTS BEGINNING WITH OUR LOCAL EXPERTISE? YOU KNOW, WE'RE LOCAL COMPANY. WE'RE NOT A BIG COMPANY OUT OF TEXAS WITH AN OFFICE IN BOCA WERE HERE FROM WEST PALM BEACH. WE'RE RIGHT AT NEARBY 45 MINUTES IS A SHORT DRIVE. WE CAN COME AT ANY MOMENT'S NOTICE. WE HAVE A PROVEN TRACK RECORD HERE AND INDIAN TOWN AND WITH MARTIN COUNTY. EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH CITY HALLS, COMMUNITY CENTERS AND PARKS, EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IN MUNICIPAL PROJECTS AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AT RISK METHODOLOGY. OUR THREE D IMAGING ARE BUILDING. I'M ANIMATIONS. WE SHOWED YOU. WE DO THREE DIMENSIONAL DRAWINGS FOR REV IT AND BEEN FOR CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS AND WE DO THE DESIGN WORKSHOPS. WE LOVE TO DO THAT, AND WE'RE AN AWARD WINNING FIRM. AND MY FINAL SLIDE. WE ARE THE FIRM. WE BELIEVE WE ARE THE FIRM THAT BEST SERVES YOUR INTERESTS FOR THIS VERY IMPORTANT COMMUNITY PROJECT LIKE WE MENTIONED BACK IN OCTOBER. THIS IS AN HONOR TO WORK ON A PROJECT LIKE THIS. THIS IS REALLY A VERY SPECIAL TIME IN INDIAN TOWN. IT'S VERY EXCITING TO BE WORKING HERE. MR MANAGERS. A LOT OF EXCITING THINGS HAPPEN. THE BUZZ IN PALM BEACH COUNTY IN MARTIN COUNTY IS EVERYTHING'S HAPPENING IN INDIAN TOWN. IT'S REALLY IT'S REALLY SET TO GO. THIS PROJECT WILL SET THE TONE. FOR MANY, MANY OTHER PROJECTS. WE'VE DONE THAT IN SEBASTIAN. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN UP TO SEBASTIAN? WE DID THEIR CITY HALL 10 YEARS AGO THAT SET THE TONE FOR SEBASTIAN.

THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PROJECT FOR COMMUNITY OF YOUR SIZE AS YOU START GROWING. AND WE THINK THAT BESIDES THE HONOR AND THE PRIVILEGE, I THINK WE WOULD DO THE BEST JOB FOR YOU. AND WE APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY AGAIN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. NO, NO, NO, I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY NO, NOT AT THIS STUFF. MHM. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU.

WHERE SHOULD WE GO? YOU CAN GO THAT WAY. IT'S JUST COME THIS WAY. DON'T MOVE. OTHER GUYS ARE GOING TO FEEL BAD. TAKE ONE OUT. PUT ONE OUT. DRAFT THEM. MERYL, GO. YOU'RE GOING TO GO.

OKAY? MHM. COUNCIL ON. YEAH, WE'RE READY. THANK YOU. VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THERE YOU GO. OKAY, NAME AND YOU KNOW THE DRILL. GOOD EVENING MAYOR COUNCIL MEMBERS. IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE HERE TONIGHT. I'M SAM FERRARI, PRINCIPAL WITH PG L ARCHITECTS. AND WE WANT TO HEAR TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR PROJECT AND HOW. WE THINK WE CAN HELP FACILITATE AND BRING IT TO FRUITION FOR YOU ON TIME AND BUDGET NEXT. SO A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR FIRM WHERE 75 YEAR YOUNG FIRM. WE'VE BEEN IN PALM BEACH COUNTY SINCE 1996. I'M A NATIVE FLORIDIAN. I'VE BEEN HERE IN SOUTH FLORIDA FOR 42 YEARS

[00:45:03]

AND THEN WE HAVE A LIST OF CONSULTING ENGINEERS. STRUCTURAL JAZEERA KNACK. MM. P JAIL ALREADY. UM CIVIL IS KIM LEE HORN AND JORDAN. HAGGERTY IS HERE. WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH JORDAN'S JASON FOR A LONG TIME AND. ACTUALLY WORK WITH THEM A LITTLE BIT ON LOOKING AT YOUR SITES. AND THEN THE REST OF OUR SUPPORT TEAM. I THINK THE OTHER IMPORTANT THING THAT WE RECOGNIZE IN THIS VOLATILE. ECONOMY THAT'S GOING ON IS WE BROUGHT IN A. COST ESTIMATOR THAT WE START ON DAY ONE AS WE DO THE PROGRAM. WE'RE GOING TO LET YOU KNOW WHATEVER YOU MOVE COST. SO THAT WE DON'T GET SURPRISED AT THE END. SO THAT'S AN IMPORTANT THING. AND WARDEN SMITH CONSTRUCTION MANAGER DEALING WITH A BUNCH OF PROJECTS HAVE ALL THE LATEST NUMBERS. AND JIM ALL IS ON OUR TEAM FOR THAT SPECIFICALLY NEXT SLIDE. SO WE'VE DONE OVER 50 MUNICIPAL PROJECTS NEXT LINE. AND WE HAVE REALLY NO DESIGN. OUR DESIGNS ARE REALLY CATERED TO THE COMMUNITY. WHEN WE GET THROUGH, IT'S GOING TO BE THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWNS BUILDING AND WE'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THAT IN A SECOND. BUT YOU CAN SEE ALL THE STYLES ARE DIFFERENT. NEXT SLIDE. SO I JUST WANTED TO USE THIS AS A CASE STUDY. THIS IS THE CITY OF GREENACRES CITY HALL. AND WHAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT IS IN A SMALL COMMUNITY EVERY INCH OF SPACE COUNTS. SO A LITTLE BIT HARD TO SEE THE GRAPHIC, BUT BASICALLY THAT THEIR CITY HALL IS DEFINED AROUND FOUR DEPARTMENTS AND THE CHAMBER WHICH IS AT THE TOP OF THE SHEE, SO WE ORGANIZED AND THROUGH THE PROGRAMMING. REALIZED THERE ARE A LOT OF SHARED SPACES BETWEEN DEPARTMENTS. THE COPY ROOM, THE FOUL ROOM, THE CONFERENCE ROOMS, SO THOSE OF THOSE AREN'T SPACES IN THE MIDDLE. INSTEAD OF PUTTING ONE IN EVERY DEPARTMENT. WE KIND OF PUT THEM TOGETHER A LOT OF TO HAVE DIFFERENT SIZES SO THEY COULD SHARE SO WE DID THAT ON ALL FOUR SIDES. UM THE OTHER THING WE DID IS IN THE CENTER IS THE MAIN LOBBY THAT ALSO ACTS AS WHERE ALL THE UM.

TRANSACTION COUNTERS FOR UTILITY BILLS FOR BUILDING PERMITS. IT'S ALL IN THAT SHARED SPACE. THAT'S THE LOBBY. THAT'S THE WAITING AREA FOR THE FOUR DEPARTMENTS, AND IT'S THE OVERFLOW FOR THE COUNCIL CHAMBER. THE DOORS OPEN UP ON THE COUNCIL CHAMBER. YOU CAN DOUBLE THE SIZE. WHEN YOU HAVE AN IMPORTANT MEETING. IT ALSO ACTS AS A GALLERY FOR PUBLIC ART NEXT LIFE. SO OUR PROCESS WHICH I THINK IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. IT STARTS WITH THE PROGRAMMING. AND WE'RE GOING TO BASICALLY ENGAGE YOU AS THE USER GROUPS TO GET IN DEPTH THEM PUT HOW YOU FUNCTION ON A DAILY BASIS. WHAT SPACES YOU NEED. AND THEN YOU'LL CONTINUE TO BE STAKEHOLDERS THROUGH THE DESIGN. WE'RE ALSO GOING TO LOOK AT THE SITE AND START AT THE SITE AT THE BEGINNING BECAUSE YOU HAVE A RAW SITE. WOULD YOU HAVE OTHER PLANS FOR THAT SITE? SO THE PLACEMENT OF THIS FIRST BUILDING AND WHAT CAN BE SHARED ON THAT SITE WILL BE IMPORTANT. AND THEN FINALLY WE GO THROUGH THE NORMAL PROCESS. EVERYONE OF THOSE STEPS WILL BE DOING COST ESTIMATES. CHECKING THE PROGRAM WITH YOU. YOU'LL BE PART OF THA, SO WE DON'T GO AWAY AND COME BACK WITH YOUR FINISHED DESIGN.

IT'S GOING TO BE A PROCESS THROUGHOUT NEXT SLIDE. SO JUST TO SAMPLE PROGRAM, UM, WHEN KIM LEE HORN WAS LOOKING AT YOUR SITES. THEY ASKED US FROM OUR EXPERIENCE TO JUST GIVE THEM SOME IDEAS ON UM. WHAT A PROGRAM WOULD BE. SO THIS IS KIND OF JUST THE START. WE DID THIS IN THE BLIND, BUT YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE AN ADMINISTRATIVE. SIDE OF THE EQUATION, AND WE HAVE THE COMMUNITY CENTER SIDE OF THE EQUATION, SO WE'LL IDENTIFY THAT THOSE SPACES THEN WE'LL LOOK AT THE SIZES WILL DO DIAGRAMS BUT THE FURNITURE ON IT, MAKE SURE IT ALL WORKS. NEXT SLIDE. SO THIS IS YOUR SITE ON WAR FIELD? UM SO THE COLORS REALLY MEAN THE GREEN IS KIND OF. WE THINK THE BUILDING SHOULD FRONT WAR FIELD BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE THE PRESENCE IN THE COMMUNITY. WE NEED SOME GREEN. WE NEED SOME RETENTION. WE LOOKED AT A VILLAGE GREEN AS THE ORGANIZER BETWEEN AND THE YELLOW ARE POTENTIAL BUILDINGS. ONE OF THOSE WOULD BE THE FIRST

[00:50:03]

AND SO THIS IS THE WAY WE WORK WITH YOU. WE CREATE SKETCHES LIKE THIS BECAUSE WE KNOW HIS LATE PEOPLE. YOU DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND ARCHITECTURE ENGINEERING. YOU NEED VISUAL IMAGES, AND THAT'S THE WAY WE WORK. WE EVEN HAVE OUR INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. I WENT QUICKLY THROUGH OUR ORGANIZATIONAL CHARTS, BUT THAT'S IN HOUSE. AND WE HAVE SOME AMAZING PEOPLE WITH SOME SKETCHES THAT CAN SHOW YOU WHAT THE CHAMBER IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE. YOU CAN HAVE REACTIONS. NO I WANT A BIGGER ONE SMALLER, SO MANY SEATS, SO THAT'S SUCH NEXT LINE. SO BUDGET BUDGETS ALWAYS IMPORTANT. WE'VE GOT TO MAINTAIN THE BUDGET, SO. WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THE NUMBERS COMING IN FROM OUR OTHER PROJECTS. UM AND PRICE RANGE RIGHT NOW OR IN THE HIGH 303 100 FOR CITY HALL'S I THINK THOSE NUMBERS ARE GOING TO COME BACK DOWN AND BEING BUTTON THREE AND A QUARTER SQUARE FOOT. SO WHAT WE DO IS WE USE THIS INVERTED TRIANGLE. WE SIT DOWN WITH YOU AND FIGURE OUT WHAT ARE THE HIGHEST PRIORITIES. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE FUNDAMENTAL MUST HAVES YOU'RE GONNA HAVE SECURITY. YOU HAVE TO HAVE 80 ACCESSIBILITY. THE PROGRAM HAS TO WORK. PARKING HAS TO WORK. WHAT OTHER FUNCTIONS DO YOU WANT TO HAPPEN? THEN WE GO TO SECOND LEVEL, WHICH ACCORD NEED NECESSITY. YOU WANT TO HAVE DURABLE FINISHES? BECAUSE THIS IS A PUBLIC BUILDING. YOU PROBABLY WANT TO HAVE AUTOMATED BUILDING SYSTEM SYSTEM SO THAT YOUR AIR CONDITIONING EVERYTHING'S CONTROLLED ENERGY EFFICIENCY. AND THEN SECURITY SECURITY'S UTMOST IMPORTANCE. IN THIS DAY AND AGE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN DIFFERENT LEVELS OF SECURITY FOR YOUR STAFF, THE PUBLIC ETCETERA, AND THEN THERE'S THE ONCE THE THINGS YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD. BUT WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THOSE THROUGH THE PROCESS AND PUT A PRICE TAG ON THEM SO YOU CAN MAKE THOSE DECISIONS. HOW SUSTAINED EXCUSE ME. HOW SUSTAINABLE DO YOU WANT THE BUILDING? FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT, WHETHER IT'S INSIDE OR EVEN PARK FURNITURE OUTSIDE. A STORAGE WILL IDENTIFY ALL THOSE AND THEN FINALLY, SOME LOW PRIORITIES. THE MEETING SPACES, UM, REDUNDANT SYSTEMS YOU HAVE. YOU'RE GOING TO PROBABLY HAVE A GYM IN THIS SO. YOU MIGHT WANT TO USE IT AS A SHELTER. THERE'S GRANT MONEY OUT THERE SO POTENTIALLY REDUNDANT SYSTEMS SO YOU CAN USE IT IN A STORM OF THAT THOSE ARE ALL THINGS WILL IDENTIFY PRICES TO AND THEN ALSO, MAYBE LOOK, IT UPGRADED FINISHES LAST NIGHT. SO WHY P. J L. WELL, FIRST OF ALL, WE'RE PRINCIPLE DRIVEN. WE'RE LESS THAN AN HOUR AWAY. SO SOME PEOPLE SAY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE. WE'RE FAR AWAY. WE'RE UP IN THIS AREA AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK, SO THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM. WE LOVE TO ME. WE LOVE TO COLLABORATE. WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT ON THE PHONE. WE'RE GOING TO COME HERE AND SIT DOWN WITH YOUR ROLL UP OUR SLEEVES. WE'VE GOT TEAM EXPERIENCE TOGETHER. ALL OF OUR TEAMS WORK TOGETHER. WE'LL ENGAGE YOU IN THE PROCESS.

THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT PART BECAUSE WHEN WE GET THROUGH THIS IS YOUR BUILDING, NOT OUR BUILDING. AND THEN WE HAVE A HISTORY OF MEETING BUDGETS AND SCHEDULES. UM WE LIKE YOU TO CALL OUR CLIENTS AND CHECK OUR REFERENCES BECAUSE THEY'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT THE VALUE THEY'VE GOTTEN FROM US. AND IT WOULD BE AN HONOR TO WORK WITH YOU. SO WE WANT TO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY. AND WE'RE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU. YES I WAS WONDERING HIS PRESENTATION THAT YOU HAD. IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN GET A

[00:55:02]

AWESOME. THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND WE CAN LEAVE THESE BOARDS FOR YOU TO YOU KNOW SOMETHING YOU WANT TO STUDY A LITTLE BIT MORE AND AGAIN. A LITTLE HARD IN THIS ENVIRONMENT, BUT YOU DO HAVE SCREENS DOWN. THE LAST TIME I WAS HERE. HE DIDN'T HAVE SCREENS PICK AND PROVEN IN JUST A FEW WEEKS. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. YEAH. LEWIS HAS GOT HIM. GIVE IT A MINUTE. LET'S GET. GOVERNMENT.

OKAY, SO, UM. MATTER MADE HER AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. UH, WE ORIGINALLY HAD THREE FIRMS. NOW WE'RE DOWN TO TWO SO ESTABLISH REQUESTING THAT THE COUNCIL. RIGHT WHAT WE HAVE PRESENTING FIRMS AND AUTHORIZED MYSELF OR THE VILLAGE ATTORNEY TO ENTER INTO NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE TOP RING FIRM. SHOULD NEGOTIATIONS FAILED MYSELF AND THE ATTORNEY WOULD.

SURE YOU KNOW YOU'RE THE LAWYER. SO YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF LANGUAGE I'M TRYING TO THINK SO? I'LL JUST SHARE EARLIER TODAY, THE MARINADE WE'RE CHATTING ABOUT HER CONCERNS CONCERNING THIS. WE'RE BOUNCING AROUND IDEAS. ONE IDEA THAT I HAD HAD WITH REGARD TO THIS WAS THAT, UM. ALSO ADDING A REQUIREMENT THAT WHENEVER THE VILLAGE MANAGER EXERCISES AUTHORITY THAT HE PROVIDE WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE COUNCIL WITHIN X DAY, SEVEN DAYS OR WHATEVER. AFTER EXERCISING THAT AUTHORITY. SO YOU ALL CLEARLY NO, IT'S COMPLETELY TRANSPARENT.

BURN ME THAT HE HAS EXERCISED THIS AUTHORITY THIS WAY. IT'S NOT HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES OR ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THAT YOU ALL DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT COULD B, YOU KNOW, RUNNING RAMPANT IN YOUR OPINION OR NOT, AND SO ON. YOU ALL WOULD HAVE NOTICE OF THAT. AND THEN IF THE COUNCIL.

DECIDES HEY, UH, YOU KNOW WHETHER IT'S MR BROWN OR VILLAGE MANAGER IN THE FUTURE DECIDES.

HEY THEY'RE USING THIS AUTHORITY A LOT. WE NEED TO BRING THIS BACK UP IN THE COUNCIL AND MODIFIED THIS AUTHORITY OR TAKE THIS AUTHORITY AWAY. SO IT'S AN ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM. JUST ONE THOUGHT THAT WE HAD. OF COURSE, THERE MAY BE OTHERS SO. IF SOME SORT OF ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY WITH REGARD TO THIS WOULD. WORK FOR THE COUNCIL COULD CHAT ABOUT IT HERE AND WHAT I CAN SEE. SUGGEST PROCEDURALLY AS THIS IS AN ORDINANCE, SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO READINGS YOU CAN GIVE DIRECTION TO PREPARE LANGUAGE ALONG THE LINES OF WHAT YOU ALL DISCUSS. APPROVE IT ON FIRST READING. BRING IT TO SECOND READING. IF ULTIMATELY YOU STILL DON'T LIKE IT. AFTER THAT, YOU CAN VOTE IT DOWN. RUSSIAN. YES. SUSAN GIBBS SUMMERS QUESTION.

MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND. SO EXERCISE HIS AUTHORITY. AND WE'RE TALKING TO CHANGE BENEFIT.

CORRECT DID I HEAR THAT CORRECTLY RIGHT TO GRANT BENEFITS IN EXCESS OF THE STANDARD BENEFITS IN EXCESS? OKAY, SO APPARENTLY. I DON'T KNOW, SAY, APPARENTLY SO MY UNDERSTANDING IS. THIS COUNCIL WHAT OUR RESPONSIBILITY IS TO DO IS TO. COME UP WITH AND TO APPROVE. HMM. THE. THE BENEFITS AND THIS IS WHAT WE'RE COMFORTABLE WITH. AND THIS IS WHAT WE DEEM IS A VERY GOOD PACKAGE. AND SO WE LOSE. WE LOSE OUR AUTHORITY. AND IT ONCE WE GIVE IT AWAY AND OKAY, IT'S GIVEN THIS EXCESS BENEFIT OR IN EXCESS TO WHAT WE HAVE DEEMED IS APPROPRIATE AND FAIR. UM WE CAN'T EXACTLY WALK IN AND GO. WHOA, WAIT A MINUTE. NOW WE DON'T THINK THAT THAT'S SO WE CAN'T TAKE IT. WE CAN'T TAKE IT BACK. SO ONCE ONCE WE ARE PLAN

[01:35:06]

AND SO YOU KNOW, AGAIN WHEN WE WHEN WE, UH, TAKE THAT AUTHORITY, WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE. AND REMEMBER THAT WENT TO REFERENDUM. UM BECAUSE OF, UH, THIS INFORMATION IT DID NOT PAS. I REALLY FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO PUT THAT BACK ON THE. UM FOR A VOTE BECAUSE. I DON'T THINK IS MY JOB TO BE TERMED TO BE DETERMINING TO DETERMINE WHAT BENEFITS THAT THESE EMPLOYEES SHOULD BE GETTING WHEN TRADITIONALLY BAD AS YOUR JOB.

AND SO I THINK WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FIND OURSELVES HERE. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO DELAY ON ISSUES WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO, UM, HAVE FOLKS LEAVE. BECAUSE AGAIN WE'RE OUT.

UH WE'RE OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, OR, YOU KNOW, 30 MILES FROM THE CITY. WE HAVE TO BE. WE GOT TO ATTRACT FOLKS TO COME OUT HERE AND TO INDIAN TOWN, AND I THINK THAT IS THE JOB OF THE OF THE MANAGER. SO YOU KNOW, I THINK WE NEED TO KEEP THAT IN THE BACK OF OUR HEADS AS WE ARE.

TRYING TO ATTRACT FOLKS IN THIS IN THIS COMMUNITY TO WORK FOR TO WORK FOR THE VILLAGE, AND, UM, I JUST THINK THAT THE EVERY TIME WE TALK ABOUT PERSONNEL I JUST. HOLD MY BREATH BECAUSE THAT'S NOT OUR JOB BECAUSE WE ALWAYS TEND TO GO ON WHAT WE THINK OR WHAT WE FEEL OR WHAT'S HAPPENING IN OUR JOBS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WHICH. AGAIN IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT WAY. SO YOU KNOW, I THINK WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FIND OURSELVES HERE. UM EVERY TIME UNLESS WE DO WHAT'S RIGHT TO GIVE THAT AUTHORITY TO HIM, WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BEEN FROM THE BEGINNING, SO. YOU KNOW, UM UM. YEAH, THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S ALL. IN THE PUBLIC COMMENTS. NO, MADAM MAYOR. SO. ARE WE GOING TO GET A MOTION TO AMEND.■ AH WHAT WEIGHT AND I TALKED ABOUT. OR WHAT I DO HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE, AS IS THAT WE WOULD NEED TO AMEND THAT MOTION. THE MAKER, SO WISHES THERE'S BEEN. NO SECOND AT THIS POINT, CORRECT. IT NEVER WAS SECOND. NO, IT WASN'T NO. YEAH. CAN I GET A MOTION TO AMEND. ANOTHER MOTION TO ADD THE AMENDMENTS THAT WE JUST TALKED ABOUT THE MOTION AND THE AMENDMENT. OUR I'LL SECOND THAT AND I'M SECOND ON THE. ON THE NOTION THAT IT IS THE ACCOUNTABILITY FORWARDING, WHICH WEIGHT HAD EXPLAINED. PROCEDURALLY CAN I SUGGEST BECAUSE THAT FIRST MOTION WAS NEVER SECOND. AND CAN I SUGGEST THAT THAT THAT MATCH ORIGINAL MOTION BE WITHDRAWN, THERE WOULD BE A NEW MOTION TO APPROVE ON FIRST READING WITH. THE AMENDMENT. I ALWAYS DRAW THAT FIRST, THAT FIRST MOTION. OKAY, SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND MAKE THE MOTION TO. TO APPROVE IT WITH THE AMENDMENT THAT MR BOSE RECOMMENDED I'LL SECOND THAT.

ANY MORE DISCUSSION. SUSAN GIBBS, THOMAS. JUST FOR CLARITY. EXACTLY WHAT IS THAT AND NUMBER.

THAT'S FOR LATER THIS YEAR AND COUNCIL APPROVED THAT TONIGHT, AND AS I SAID, WE'RE HOPEFUL OF FULL FOR REIMBURSEMENT BY THE DPP. OTHER THAN THAT UTILITIES IS CONTINUING TO WORK WITH DEVELOPERS AND I WORK WITH THEM ON PLAN REVIEW, CONSTRUCTION INSPECTIONS AND PROJECT TURNOVER ON OUR MULTIPLE ONGOING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE VILLAGE. NEXT SLIDE. AND THEN ON THE REFS TO REITERATE WHAT I SAID EARLIER. UM UTILITIES HAS ATTENDED MULTIPLE YOU COORDINATION MEETINGS WITH MYSELF AND OUR SRF CONSULTANTS, AND WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH DESIGN. AT THIS POINT, PRELIMINARY DESIGN EFFORTS HAVE WRAPPED UP AND WE'RE BEGINNING ACTUAL DESIGN AND UTILITIES IS WORKING WITH MULTIPLE CONCERTANTE CONSULTANTS AT THIS POINT. FOR ACCESSIBILITY TO OUR PLANTS, BRINGING THEM THROUGH AND IT'S EVERYONE FROM STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS TO ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS TO, UM WASTEWATER PROCESS AND WATER PROCESS ENGINEERS. SO THERE'S BEEN A PARADE IN AND OUT OF OUR PLANTS RECENTLY. THERE'S A LOT OF WORK HAPPENING. AND THEN, AS I MENTIONED, EVERYONE'S COMMENTED ON THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN REPORTS, AND, UM SO WE'VE BASICALLY GUIDED THE CONSULTANTS DOWN THE PAST THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR. AS FAR AS FOR OUR PLANTS AND TRYING TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY STAYS ON BUDGET AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. THAT'S PRETTY MUCH THE WORST OF WHAT WE'VE GOT RIGHT NOW, OR SHOULD I SAY THE BEST OF WHAT WE'VE GOT RIGHT NO? AND I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, BILL.
