WSN appreciates the opportunity to assist in developing <br /> the bid documents required to allow the City to obtain public bids and a plumbing permit from <br /> the State of Minnesota for construction. <br /> Based on the input during our meeting on January 21St with Mike Loven and Dave Sjoblad, City <br /> of Pequot Lakes, the following is our understanding of the design parameters: <br /> o The new seasonal public restroom will be located towards the North end of the park <br /> near the area with the new playground equipment. (Final location to be determined <br /> by the City during the design process.) <br /> o The desire is to have one (1)toilet fixture and one (1)sink(plus accessories, <br /> including grab bars, paper towel dispensers, etc.)in both the men's and women's <br /> sides. (Fixture count dependent on code review findings.) <br /> o The facility will not have showers or drinking fountains. <br /> o Existing utilities (water, sewer, electrical)are currently available at the site. Running <br /> in new services or upgrading the existing services is not required. <br /> o Durable fixtures and materials are to be selected to minimize damage from <br /> vandalism. Possible materials include concrete block with split faced exterior finish <br /> and burnished interior with graffiti coating, metal panel roof and ceiling and stainless <br /> steel plumbing fixtures. <br /> o The new building will have mechanical ventilation, but will be unheated (plumbing will <br /> have to be drainable). <br /> Based on our understanding of the project scope, we propose the following design services <br /> (architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and civil)required to allow the City to obtain <br /> public bids for the construction of this restroom facility. <br /> Design Services: <br /> o Design Kick-off Meeting: <br /> • This meeting would further elaborate the design parameters addressed above, <br /> along with the development of initial floor plans and material selections. <br /> o Preliminary Design: <br /> • We will take the feedback from the above meeting and prepare preliminary <br /> drawings showing the floor plan (including required handicap accessible <br /> provisions)and elevations. <br /> Engineering Architecture Surveying Environmental <br />
