October 1, 2010 <br />City of South Bend <br />227 W. Jefferson Boulevard <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Attention: Mr. Bill Schalliol <br />RE: PROPOSAL FOR REFURBISHMENT OF THE FORMER EMI, INC. BUILDING <br />AND GROUNDS LOCATED AT 2026 S. MAIN STREET, SOUTH BEND, <br />INDIANA 46501 <br />Dear Bill: <br />Wightman Petrie is pleased to submit this proposal to provide services for the property located <br />at 2026 S. Main Street, South Bend, Indiana 46601. This proposal includes an outline of our <br />understanding, our estimated fee and contractual information. <br />PROJECT UNDERSTANDING <br />The City of South Bend desires to enhance the building and grounds located at 2020/2026 S. <br />Main Street so that the City can provide the property as a location for new commercial <br />investment. Wightman Petrie and the City's Engineering and Redevelopment offices have met <br />multiple times concerning this site and we have come to the conclusion that the project involves <br />two (2) phases that will be awarded through a quote process. The first phase will begin in Fall <br />2010 and will concentrate on fixing the roof and walls of the building, removing all interior <br />improvements, machinery and debris. Included in this phase will be removal of the impervious <br />surfaces, drywells and fencing that surround the southern lot and regarding and planting with <br />hydroseed. Wightman Petrie is prepared to design this project, deliver stamped plans and <br />specifications, coordinate the quote process, provide design engineer guidance during the <br />project and also provide partial construction inspection during the length of the project. <br />The second phase consists of development of the lots north of the former EMI building into a <br />parking area, replacement of the curb and sidewalk along portions of Bowman Street, Main <br />Street and Donald Street and new landscaping along all tree lawns. This phase is scheduled to <br />be put out for quotes in Spring 2011. Wightman Petrie will provide similar services as above <br />and also include a replat of the site to incorporate the revisions of the northern lots. <br />WIGHTMA�TPETRIE <br />SURVFYINC: `NrIN(TRING FN11IRONMFN7.NI I.NNDSCAFT ARCI IITfCTUR.F <br />
