March 10, 2026 Board of Public Works City of South Bend 217 S Dr. Martin Luther King Drive South Bend, IN 46601 RE: Proposal for Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) Services for the Morris Performing Arts Center Parking Garage Project Evaluation Committee Members, Larson-Danielson Construction is pleased to submit our proposal for the Morris Performing Arts Center Parking Garage project. We appreciate the opportunity to continue our partnership with the City of South Bend and the South Bend Venues Parks & Arts team. Our firm has extensive experience working on and around this site, giving our team a strong understanding of the existing conditions, downtown logistics, and the coordination required for construction in this active area of the City. We recognize that this project presents unique challenges, including construction adjacent to the historic Morris Performing Arts Center, coordination within a dense downtown environment, and alignment with the City’s broader mixed-use vision for this portion of downtown South Bend. Our team’s familiarity with the site and surrounding infrastructure positions us to thoughtfully plan site logistics, coordinate with nearby development activity, and minimize disruption to ongoing downtown operations and events. We have also had the privilege of partnering with the City of South Bend on a number of successful projects. Through these experiences, we have developed a clear understanding of the City’s standards, priorities, and collaborative approach to project delivery. Having worked together on several significant projects, we believe we bring unique value through our familiarity with City processes and our ability to achieve positive outcomes through thoughtful collaboration with City staff, design partners, and the broader project team. Our team has significant experience delivering projects of similar size and complexity throughout Northern Indiana, and we are confident in our ability to complete this project in accordance with the City’s expectations and within the proposed timeframe. We are grateful for the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to the possibility of continuing our strong working relationship with the City of South Bend and SBVPA. We believe Larson- Danielson is uniquely positioned to serve as the ideal CMc partner for this project, and we would welcome the opportunity to help deliver another successful project for the City and the downtown community. Sincerely, LARSON-DANIELSON CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. Brian Larson
