Community & Economic Development s 1865 1200 County-City Building, 227 West Jefferson, South Bend, Indiana 46601-1830 Phone 574/235-9371 Fax 574/235-9021 To: Redevelopment Commission From: Bill Schalliol, Economic Development Planner ~~~ Subject: Oliver Industrial Park -Design Services -Arnold Street/West Property line Date: July 7, 2010 At the April 23~d meeting of the Redevelopment Commission, the Commission approved a proposal from Danch, Harner & Associates ("DHA") to provide a variety of planning and design services related to planned improvements within and adjacent to the Oliver Industrial Park on Chapin Street. On May 21St, the Commission approved a second proposal with DHA to provide design services for entry park signage. The third request, attached to this memorandum, is a proposal from Danch, Harner & Associates is to provide design services for the western edge of the Oliver Industrial Park along Arnold Street. With the recent opening of Underground Pipe & Value located towards the rear of the park, the completion of the retention area in the northwest corner of the park and soon the acquisition of the final two parcels on Ford Street, there is a strong need to address the western side of the park. For years, the neighbors along Arnold Street were separated from the Oliver site by a large building built right to the sidewalk, but with that demolition a few years ago and new industrial development filling the park, a buffer zone needs to be created. The proposal for the project is projected to be $9,750.00 with cost for Bidding & Negotiation (Task 4) and Construction Inspection (Task 5) to be expensed at a time & materials amount. The project includes topographic survey, site analysis, land use planning and design concepts and construction plans for buffering along Arnold Street. Staff would propose approval of Tasks 1-5 with aNot-To-Exceed amount of $11,000.00. Staff requests Commission approval of this proposal. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
