Dear Becca: Thank you for contacting Jones Petrie Rafinski (JPR) regarding the above referenced project. We have appreciated being able to be of service to you in the past and hope to be afforded the opportunity to provide you with our services for this project. UNDERSTANDING OF THE ASSIGNMENT The City of South Bend Venues Parks and Arts has decided to install the automated gates at the west entrance to the Century Center Parking Lot in downtown South Bend. JPR originally designed the current entrance back in 2018 with the intention of these gates being installed in the future. Based on previous discussions, it is thought that the necessary conduit and pull wires were installed at the time of the 2018 reconfiguration and that this phase of design and plans should require gate locations, foundations and electrical connections. It is also understood that the VPA would like to look at solutions to the existing and deteriorating asphalt parking lot surface and maintenance drives around the Century Center Building. This may include crack filling, patching and resealing, a milling and resurfacing or other possible solution. JPR currently possesses the existing survey and as-built information for the entrance gate, but the City of South Bend may have additional existing topographic survey for the parking lot area and additional areas around the building that may require repaving. The City anticipates that the first task of the entrance gates will be sent out as a quote package due, and the second task of sealing or repaving may be sent out as either a quote or bid.
