3. ARCHITECTS BASIC SERVICE a. Schematic Design Phase Based on the Program which was developed in step 1 above, and modified by the City's c.omments, the Architect will develop a Schematic Design. This will consist of drawings and diagrams developing traffic patterns (automobile, pedestrian, and equipment), space allocation and arrangements, basic building massing, and a Preliminary Opinion of Probable Cost. Zoning ordinances, building codes, soils conditions, and storm drainage will be considered in this phase. We believe this phase can be accomplished in 10 working days, and propose that it be accomplished primarily by Black & Veatch, with input from Jeffrey H. Kester on local conditions. b. Design Development Phase Following the City's review of the Schematic Design Phase, the Architect will proceed with the Design Development. During this phase, the exact building layout and configuration will be designed, along with the exterior parking and storage areas. The building size and character, site improvements, and landscaping will be depicted in sufficient detail to describe the proposed interior and exterior design to the City. All primary building materials, systems, and equipment will be proposed in this presentation. A more refined Opinion of Probable Cost will be included. We believe this phase will require 10 to 15 working days. We propose that it be primarily accomplished by Black & Veatch, with input from Jeffrey H. Kester on site conditions and improvements. c. Contrac.t Document Phase After receiving the City's comments on the Design Development Phase, the Architect will begin the Contract Document Phase. Working Drawings and Specifications will be prepared which determine the detail requirements of construction of the project. The drawings will define the configuration, location and identification of each item of construction, while the specifications will define the mini- mum level of quality expected of the Contractor. The specifications c.an include (if the City has not developed their own standard) the General Condition of the Contract for Construction, including all bonding and insurance requirements. At the conclusion of this phase, a final Opinion of Probable Cost will be developed. This phase will require about 22 working days. It is proposed this be accomplished primarily by Black & Veatch.
