HomeMy WebLinkAbout1/29/2003 - STAFF REPORTS (6) DATE: JANUARY 29, 2003 TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT WITH O'DONNELL + ESCALANTE ARCHITECTS OF PALM SPRINGS FOR ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2901 NORTH PALM CANYON DRIVE, THE FORMER TRAMWAY GAS STATION RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve a contract with O'Donnell + Escalante Architects for pre-design and schematic design services for a property located at 2901 North Palm Canyon Drive, the former Tramway Gas Station, for conversion to the City's Visitors Center, in an amount not to exceed $18,000 and based on an hourly fee schedule; and, a budget resolution appropriating the funds necessary to execute the contract. SUMMARY: City Council approved the acquisition of the former Tramway Gas Station at its December 4, 2002 meeting. The transaction has now closed escrow and the City owns the property. Given the relatively tight timeframe (the lease on the current Visitors Center expires on October 31, 2003), Council directed staff to proceed quickly on securing an architect to begin the process of converting the current facility to a Visitors Center so that Tourism could begin moving in in late September. Staff undertook an Informal RFQ process and invited three local architecture firms to respond. After a review of the responses and and interview process, staff recommends the firm of O'Donnell + Escalante of Palm Springs to undertake the project. The firm demonstrated a clear understanding of the task described in the RFQ and, while a relatively young firm, has strong modernist credentials. The contract has two parts: the first phase, through Schematic Design would be based on an hourly fee schedule. The anticipated first phase cost in the overall contract was actually $15,000, but given the high level of community interest in the building, the architect could end up hosting substantially more meetings during the initial processes. Once the Council has approved its preferred Schematic Design, a follow-up contract would be brought back based on the amount in the proposal, based on the actual approved design. BACKGROUND: City Council approved the acquisition of the former Tramway Gas Station at its December 4, 2002 meeting. The transaction has now closed escrow and the City owns the property. Council directed staff in late November to start working on securing an architect for the project, as the project has a very tight timeframe. Community & Economic Development staff undertook an informal RFQ process and invited three local architects to respond with their credentials and a brief narrative approach to solving a number of the design challenges faced by the project. Those firms included: 1. Francisco a Architects, Palm Desert Palm 2. WWCOT, Palm Springs 3. O'Donnell + Escalante Architects, Palm Springs All of the firms have strong modernist credentials. In light of the historic status of the building, special sensitivity is necessary in accommodating any proposed design solution. The special areas of concern identified in the RFQ were: 1. Building Space. Currently, the Visitor Center shares approximately 3,850 s.f. with the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians at a location at 2771 North Palm Canyon Drive: the breakdown is that the City occupies about 2,000 s.f. and the Tribe occupies 1,850 s.f. The City's space is divided between office uses (about 40%), which are primarily to handle phone- and on-line inquiries, and a retail/information space (about 60%). The Tribe's portion of the Center is mostly passive displays: they occasionally have a staffer or volunteer work at the center, and their section features a TV/VCR on which they show a cultural/historical video. The space in the Tramway Gas Station building is estimated at less than 2,300 s.f., which will require "reprogramming" or streamlining of space in the new Center, or the addition of new space. 2. Restrooms. There is one restroom in each area of the current Visitors Center. While there are two newly-upgraded restrooms in the building, Tourism officials have expressed concern that two restrooms has proven to be inadequate for the volume of traffic the Center currently receives, and will be grossly inadequate for the expected increase in traffic in the new Center. In addition, the Tramway Gas Station building is not connected to the sewer, but remains on a septic system. 3. Wall Space Revenue. Of considerable importance is the fact that Tourism rents wall space (for posters) to local hotels, restaurants, and attractions. This "space rent" represents a revenue stream that helps to offset the operational cost to the center. However, two of the walls of the Tramway Gas Station — on the northwest elevation and the southeast elevation — are entirely glass. With the exception of the restrooms, which are entered from a smaller corridor created by a partial wall, the interior space is open. 4. Burnett Master Plan. From a contractual perspective, the City will commit to considering Burnett's master plan in its plans for the new Center. Burnett Development has proposed to master plan the adjacent site with visitor-related uses, including retail and, potentially, other specialized visitor centers for the Tribe, the Tram, or the National Monument. Part of the master-planning concept, though, is that the boundaries of the Tramway Gas Station site may change to accommodate other, adjacent uses. The City is committed to preserving the Frey building structure and enough of the site to preserve its free-standing context. 5. Existing Improvements Most of the building systems are new, having been installed just a few years ago by Montana St. Martin's gallery. Part of the improvements made to create the gallery, however, was the addition of a substantial perimeter wall around the entire site. The issue of whether to keep any of the wall will be of great interest to those concerned about the building, though there may be good reasons fro keeping some of it. 6. Site Upgrades. There is currently only a decomposed granite parking lot adequate to only hold six cars, there is little or no site landscaping (with 01 the exception of the exotic grass along the perimeter wall), there is no ingress/egress from Highway 111 (which is under Caltrans jurisdication), and signage will be a special challenge. Proposals were received by December 6, 2002 and interviews were conducted the following week, on Thursday, December 12. The review panel was comprised of the Director of Community & Economic Development, the Downtown Development Director, and the Director of Planning & Zoning. Based on the review panel's analysis of the submittals and the interview scores, the panel recommended that the City select O'Donnell + Escalante Architects of Palm Springs. The scoring was as follows: Rank Firm Name Score 1 O'Donnell + Escalante Architects 92.00 2 Francisco Urrutia Architects 90.67 3 WWCOT 84.00 Because a project budget has not been prepared, nor have any of the programming decisions been made, the first task in the Scope of Work will be for the Architect to interview all of the users of the facility and other stakeholders (including Tourism, other interested agencies, the Modernist community, the adjacent developer, and City Council, among others) to determine a feasible design solution to the problems identified above and a project budget. Once a conceptual design and cost estimate has been developed, it will be presented at a public meeting for the City Council to review and approve them to proceed to the design phase. Once the preferred design is selected, the architect will be contracted for the remaining phases. The architect would then prepare all construction documents for the entitlement process, bidding the construction of the project, and provide construction observation services during the construction phase and a post-occupancy evaluation. The proposal used a baseline figure of $250,000 in improvements as a guideline for the purpose of proposing a contract, and the architect proposed a flat fee of $37,500 for the basic design work of the Visitors Center, plus a percentage of any construction cost over that amount that would vary, depending on the design option selected: Estimated Professional & Construction Development Total Total Area Cost Fees" Costs Basic Visitors Center Scope of Work 2,300 s.f. $250,000 $57,500 $307,500 Option#1—Existing Center plus 3,500 s.f. $500,000 $90,000 $590,000 Restrooms Option#2—Option#1 plus Additional 5,000 s.f. $800,000 $125,000 $925,000 Retail Space Professional Development Fees include professional service fees and estimated City Pla Check and Review Fees COMPENSATION FEE SCHEDULE Amount % of fee Cumulative Total Total Contract Pre-design/Schematic Design Phase Start-Up Fe $3,750 10% $3,750 Pre-design/Schematic Design Phase $7,500 20% $11,250 Completion of Entitlements Phase Design Development Phase $3,750 10% $3,750 Construction Documents Phase Construction Documents Phase $11,250 30% $26,250 Construction Procurement Phase Construction Procurement Phase $1,875 5% $28,125 Construction Administration Phase Construction Administration Phas $7,500 20% $36,625 Post-Occupancy Evaluation Phas Post-Occupancy Evaluation Phas $1,875 1 5% 1 $37,500 This contract, however, is only for the Pre-design/Schematic Design Phase (shown as up to $15,000) to be done on an hourly rate, up to a maximum $18,000. The extra amount anticipates the potential for additional meetings during the early phases of the project with a variety of stakeholders. Once the Council chooses the preferred design after this phase, the additional contract would be brought forward for approval, based on a flat fee plus percentage of construction cost, rather than hourly. j�� A budget resolution is included to cover the contract from the City's General Fund Reserve. The total project cost, including acquisition will likely exceed $1,000,000. As an alternative to using cash, the project could be financed via a short-term lease (financing) obligation or added on to the Convention Center Expansion bond issue. John RaymoM irec r of Co nity & Economic Development APPROVE : City Manager ATTACHMENTS: 1. Contract for Architectural Services 2. Minute Order 3. Budget Resolution 3_R DATE: JANUARY 29, 2003 TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY OF CHANGES IN VISITOR CENTER ARCHITECT CONTRACT The contract that was presented to Council for approval on January 15, 2003, was a complete contract based on a fixed price plus a percentage of construction cost for the entire project to completion. The maximum of$125,000 was for the high end of potential construction cost, about $800,000. A smaller project would yield a lower architectural fee. The revised contract is only for pre-design and schematic design services. Once the schematic design and cost estimate is completed and brought back to Council for selection and approval on March 12, a second contract, similar to the previous one (without these services) will be brought forward for approval. This contract is based on an hourly rate, and is capped at $18,000 and includes reimbursables. In the previous contract, these services were$15,000 plus reimbursable expenses. The change was desired because of the uncertainty of the ultimate scope of the project, as well as all of the potential "stakeholders" that will want to have input into the design or programming of the space, during a very compressed timeframe.

Architect hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Architect (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which are 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 Architect's acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Architect'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 Architect, 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. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Architect does not waive, relinquish or release any claims or rights it may have to any amounts deducted hereunder, and shall be entitled to seek recourse for collection against City for any amounts deducted (i) the payment of which should not have been disputed and/or (ii) are not necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities or damages, either suffered by City or for which City is liable to third parties, by reason of Architect's acts or omissions in connection with this Agreement. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Architect to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein. 7.4 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a nondefaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. A party's consent to or approval of any act by the other party requiring the party's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the other party's consent to or approval of any subsequent act. 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. Community&Economic Development v.I -to- 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 injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. 7.7 Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Architect and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of Zero Dollars ($ -0-) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any service required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit "D"). The City may withhold from any monies payable on account of services performed by the Architect any accrued liquidated damages. 7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration Of Term. This Section shall govern any termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to Architect, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Architect, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Architect reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time upon, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days' written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Architect may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Architect shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Architect has initiated termination, the Architect 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 the Architect has initiated termination, the Architect shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2. 7.9 Termination for Default of Architect. If termination is due to the failure of the Architect 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 Architect 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 Community&Economic Development v.I _11- mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Architect for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated. 7.10 Attorneys' Fees. If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney's fees. Attorney's fees shall include attorney's fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney's fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. 8.0 CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION 8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.
