Palm Springs, CA.
Dear Mr. Sweeney:
Urrutio Architects is pleased to provide the City of Palm Springs with our proposal for
professional architectural and engineering services to include the HVAC Replacement
and upgrade for the Desert Highlands Unity Center Gymnasium.
ScQoe of work
The following is a summary of the scope of work and a description of what shall be
included:
Architectural:
• Due to insufficient information and drawings of the existing gymnasium building,
we have made the assumption that all new HVAC equipment shall be located
on the ground on the west side of the building. The scope shall include the
following design elements:
o Design of mechanical equipment yard utilizing masonry walls and a metal
chain link type roof cover to curtail vandalism.
o Design of mechanical duct work enclosure that will attach to the exterior
of the west side of the building. Ducts will need to extend from the
equipment up the side of the building and penetrate the exterior wall into
the interior space of the building, near the underside of the beams.
o Prepare exterior elevations depicting the equipment and duct enclosures
for City review and approval.
o Prepare roof plan to show how the existing equipment will be removed
and roofing patched/repaired.

Electrical:
• Complete electrical design to include load analysis of existing 400 amp main
switchboard based on 12 months average kilowatt (kw) consumption.
• If the existing electrical service does not have the capacity to serve the two (2)
new HVAC units, the existing main switchboard will require upgrade or
modification to add new 3-phase subpanel to supply power to new HVAC units.
