Review Existing Space Program, Plans & Other Existing Data Regarding City Hall, Trailers, And Interim Facilities
Existing City documents related to the City Hall, trailers and other interim facilities used for City offices will be reviewed. The review will particularly focus on the prior City Hall space program as well as the existing site and floor plans of the facilities. We will also review other relevant prior information that may exist, such as prior studies on the facilities, department policy statements, current/future employee projections, and existing work loadlsewice level statistics.
City's Responsibility During This Task: The City will need to provide two copies of the plans and one copy of the other documents within the first week of the project.
inventory Existing Spaces As Needed To Update Floor Plans & Furniture Diagrams
Interior areas will be inventoried as needed to update the floor plans and furnishing information (to the degree needed to create an accurate, updated information base for space needs projections). Michael reefer will personally investigate each area as an important step towards understanding the adequacy or deficiency of each space. Special problem areas will receive extra attention.
Cify's Responsibility During This Task: The City will need to send a memo to all City Hall departments indicating that an inventory process will be occuring. If desired by the Project Committee, Michael Feerer will attend a City department director meeting to personally introduce the study process.
Assess The General Physical Condition Of The Existing City Hall And Its Furnishings & Equipment
Rob Quigley and Michael Feerer will assess the general condition and remaining useful life of the existing City Hall structure. Special emphasis will be placed on the building's interior and exterior finishes as well as its mechanical and structural systems. Prior major maintenance and repair histories will be reviewed. Notes will be made on particular features or elements that constrain expansion capabilities. In addition, part of this task will be to assess the general condition of existing furniture at City Hall facilities. The extent of potential use of existing furnishings will affect the space need projections and budget for an expansion or new project.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Review Facility Condition & Existing Data With Pruject Committee
All work completed during this series of tasks will be presented to the Project Committee for review and refinement. Any issues needing further investigation will be identified and completed.
Cify's Responsibility During This Task: The City will need to form a "Project Committee" for this project that will review our work as it progresses. Timely scheduling of reviews by the Committee will be needed in order to finish this project within the desired 6Oday time frame.

2. I Conduct Detailed Individual lnterviews With Each Department Director And/or Key Personnel
We will develop a structured interview format for the Department Director interviews. It will be based on successful interview formats used in our other City Hall projects and will be reviewed with the Project Committee prior to commencing the sessions. The interviews will focus on current spatial problems, activities that affect each department's space needs, space-saving potentials, current adjacency problems, future needs for space, and other unmet facility needs. We will also reach a clear understanding of how the existing facilities are constraining the daily working success of the department as well as the public's interaction with the department. Interview notes will be prepared by MFA and sent to each director (and City Management staff) for their review, clarification and further comment. In addition, we will discuss with the Project Committee issues regarding all publidshared spaces in the City Hall, such as the Council Chambers and major lobby areas.
City's Responsibility During This Task: The Project Committee will need to review and approve the interview format. A list of department directors and any other key personnel to be interviewed will need to be furnished. Up to 10 interviews are budgeted for this task. The Project Committee will need to participate with the team in discussing various issues and criteria for the publidshared spaces within City Hall. The City Manager's office will need to review interview session notes to ensure that each departmect is correctly representing their current and future needs within the overall context of City goals, objectives and budget constraints. Before space projections can be completed in later tasks, the City Manager's office will need to resolve any disagreements it may have with departments regarding stated needs.
2.2 Review Expected Short and Long-Term Organizational GrowthXhanges To Departments
Related to the interview process, we will review with the City Manager's office each department's expected staffing and service growth (at dates corresponding to future population milestones for Carlsbad). Demographic data will be attained from SANDAG as well as Carlsbads Planning Department. In addition, we will review with the City Manager's office potential further levels of computerization, other technological changes, potential re-organization of any department, and any other factors that will influence future space needs.
City's Responsibility During This Task: The City Manager's office will need to be available for the above discussions. The Planning Department will need to provide all of its available demographic
data regarding the City of Carlsbad.
2.3 Finalize With City Manager Staff The Current & Future StaffingIService
Projections Of Each Department
Based on Tasks 2.1 and 2.2, a finalized list will be developed indicating the current and future staffing and service projections of each City Hall department. Current and future population milestones for Carlsbad are suggested to serve as target dates for the staffing projections. This will form a key information base to the upcoming space projections.
Cify's Responsibility During This Task: The City Manager's Office and/or Project Committee will need to confirm and approve these staffing and service projections.

Extensively Visit Each Department To Observe Staff Work Tasks And Public
Interaction
Based on the information attained from the detailed interviews, Michael Feerer will further visit key areas of certain departments as needed to observe daily activities and get a better understanding of key issues. Although the earlier interview sessions will provide a detailed walk-through opportunity, this task will allow areas of special importance to be researched further. The visits will also be an opportunity to ask any follow-up questions to the structured interviews.
Cify's Respunsibilify During This Task: None.
Summarize Existing Space Problems And Their Impact On City Operational Goals & costs
Based on the above tasks, each major existing space problem will be analyzed and summarized. Its impact on the City's operational goals and costs will also be clearly stated. Particular attention will be placed on problems that impact service to the public. Lack of space for new employees, inadequate privacy/communication levels, lack of spatial flexibility, limitations in employee productivity and comfort, and unnecessary staffing costs are expected to be some of the major impacts. The goal of this task is to clearly summarize in our report to the City Council the operational impact of the space problems.
City's Responsibility During 73is Task: None.
Review 8; Confirm Planning Assumptions Regarding Degree Of Future Use Of Office fechnologies
The degree of current and future City use of various office technologies will influence space needs. The level of commitment to computerization, records management & microforming, off ice furniture systems vs. traditional furnishings, electronic mail, etc. will need to be determined. Michael Feerer will illustrate the costs and benefits of any technologies the City is not familiar with. This will lead to a set of planning assumptions influencing the space needs of an expanded or new City Hall.
City's Responsibility During This Task: A discussion will need to be held with the City Manager's office and/or the Project Committee regarding future use of office technologies. A consensus for planning purposes should be reached regarding these issues.
Develop Space Standards For All City Hall Individual Workspaces, Shared Spaces
& Public Spaces
Accurate space standards will be developed for all City Hall individual workspaces, shared spaces and public spaces. The standards will be based on all of the findings of prior tasks. An efficient and effective allocation of spaces will be the goal. We will insure that the standards are sized to provide flexibility and adaptability for future needs. For the individual workspaces, three-dimensional diagrams of each workspace will be generated on computer for review by the Project Committee and Department Directors. The diagrams will accurately indicate the size and nature of each individual workspace.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.

2.8 Review & Refine Space Standards As ' Needed With Project Committee And Depa rtrn ent Directors
The Project Committee and Department Directors will need to review the space standards to ensure that they are in agreement with the space allocations. MFAs computerized three- dimensional workspace diagrams will assist in this review effort. If needed, we will coordinate visits
to other local facilities to illustrate space standards issues to the City. It will not be important (for the purposes of this study) to have every detail within each individual workspace correctly shown as long as the general size and nature of the space is confirmed.
Cify's Responsibility During This Task: The Project Committee and Department Directors will need to review and approve the space standards.
'
2.9 Summarize Existing/Future Space Needs & Review With Project Committee And Department Directors
Using the space standards, total space projections will be determined for each department and related City Hall area. One set of projections will be based on what would be required in a City Hall expansion project. A second set of projections will be based on what would be required in a new City Hall project. Current and future population milestones for Carlsbad are suggested to serve as target dates for the space needs. Parking needs will also be forecast. All work completed during
this series of tasks will be presented to the Project Committee for review and refinement. Any issues needing further investigation will be identified and completed.
Cify's ResponsibiMy During This Task: Timely review and approval by the Project Committee and Department Directors will be needed.

3.7 Review Prior Space Program, FIoor Plans & Other Existing Data On Carlsbad Main Library &i Branch
We will review existing documents that are relevant to this project. The emphasis will be on important statistical information that will be useful for later stages of our work. The documents to be reviewed include any prior space programs, master plans or internal staff reports regarding the library facilities. Existing floor plans and furnishing diagrams for both facilities and the site plan for the Main Library will be assessed. We will also need to review the Main and Branch Library collection counts, usage statistics, staffing list, salary schedule/history and organizational chart as well as the Library System's service plan, collection development policy, program statements and data on its target population.
Cify's Responsibility During This Task: The City will need to provide us with two copies of the above documents within the first week of the project.

We recognize that the target population extends beyond the City boundaries of Carisbad. Therefore, we will review the Library's existing data regarding service population and supplement it as needed with SANDAG or Planning Department statistics.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Conduct Detailed Group Discussions With Library Director And Other Key Library Personnel
Michael Feerer and Richard Waters will meet with the Library Director and other key library management personnel in one or more group discussions to review the overall direction of the

(Continued) Library system, ourrent problems, current and future needs and other issues that will influence the space need projections. Each library program component will be reviewed and discussed in detail. Criteria used in determining space needs for each area will be reviewed.
City's Responsibility During This Task: The City will need to determine what library management personnel, if any other than the Director, should participate in the group discussions.
Review & Confirm Libraries' Existing Data (Programs, Service Levels, Collections, Staffing, Etc.)
Concurrent with the group discussions, we will review the Libraries' existing operational data. We have found in other library projects it is useful to recheck and discuss the existing data in order to ensure its validity and fully understand its implications.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Develop Future Operational Projections Of Programs, Service Levels, Collections, Staffing, Etc.
Prior to the group discussions, we will develop operational projections of programs, service levels, collections and staffing based on the target population data and other Library existing data. The operational projections will be reviewed and refined during the group discussions as needed.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Identify Technological Advances Affecting Library Space Needs Now And In The
Future
During the group discussions, we will discuss various Library information technologies and storage technologies available now or in the future. The current staIe of the Library's automation and use of these technologies will be reviewed. We will review what other "leading edge" main libraries have achieved technologically. Assumptions will be discussed and resolved (for the purposes of space need projections) regarding the expected degree of future committment by the Carlsbad Library system to each of these technologies.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Summarize Space Projections For Dual Libraries & Review With Commiffee & Key
Library Staff
Based on the results of the group discussions and our research, we will calculate, fine-tune and refine the space projections for dual Library facilities for the City of Carlsbad. Current and future service population milestones for the Carlsbad Library system are suggested to serve as target dates for the space need projections. Parking needs will also be forecast. For informational purposes, the projections will be compared to accepted "rule of thumb" overall space need

Evaluate The Expansion Potential Of Existing Site
5 Analvze Site PlanninalLocation Issues ( RW Q/M FA/HB WMI A)
5.1 Review Existing Information/Plans Of Current Site & Nearby Parcels To Be
Considered For Expansion
Site plans, parcel diagrams, utility locations and topography plans of the existing City Hall & Library site will be reviewed. Other adjacent or nearby parcels that are to be considered for expansion options will also be assessed. Changes in grade and slope conditions on the site will be noted. In addition, we will review demqraphic data of Carlsbad as well as surrounding land use designations and for use during later tasks.
City's ResponsibiMy During This Task: The City will need to provide two copies of the site plans, parcel diagrams, utility location plans, topography plans and demographic data within the first two weeks of the project.
5.2 Assess Site Constraints Affecting Expansion Of The City Hall & Library
The team will assess the various constraints affecting expansion on the site. Site dimensions, topography, traffic and parking access, view vistas, relationships to the street and surrounding neighborhood and other factors will be evaluated. This will set the framework for developing expansion options during later tasks.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
5.3 Summarize Land Use, Demographic, Traffic And Other Community Trends Affecting Existing Site
There are several factors (besides on-site technical constraints) that influence the long term viability of the existing site for the City Hall and/or Library. These factors include land use trends surrounding the site and along its access roadways, location convenience for the community, the evolving distribution of population within Carlsbad, and other factors. Traffic and access will be especially important considerations. We will summarize each of these factors as a basis for recommending whether the existing site will remain a viable site for either the City Hall and/or Library.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.

long-term viability of the existing site. This issue will be especially important for the City Hall.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Review/Refine Site Analysis With Project Committee & Library Management Staff
All work completed during this series of tasks will be presented to the Project Committee and Library management staff for review and refinement. Any issues needing further investigation will be identified and completed.
Civs ResponsibiMy During This Task: Timely review and approval by the Project Committee and Library management staff will be needed.
Develop Expansion options For Existina Site (RWQ/MFA/HBWNVA\
Review Space Need Increase Of City Hall & Library Developed During Earlier Project Tasks
The Cor-nmittee-approved space need projections will be reviewed by the project team as the starting point to conceptualizing possible expansion options.
City's Responsibility During This Task: Project Committee approval of the space need projections for the City Hall and Library will be needed prior to beginning this task.
Develop Diagrams Indicating Site Expansion Conceptual Design Options
Rob Quigley and Michael Feerer will hold an intense half-day inter-office workshop as a way to brainstorm and evaluate many expansion possibilities. From the wide range of options discussed, the most feasible options will be refined in simple diagrammatic form that will be easily understandable by City staff and the Council.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Develop Phasing Approach For Each Option To Minimlze Disruptions During Construction
A phasing approach that minimizes operational disruptions during construction will be crucial to the success of each potential option. Therefore, for the feasible options, we will ensure that there is a successful, cost-effective phasing approach to implementing the proposed project. This will also be represented in diagrammatic form.

Develop Summary Of Traffic, Access & Parking lmpacts Of Each Option
Willdan Associates will perform a traffic, access and parking study of each option. We will review the existing site with Willdan prior to developing the expansion options, however, this task will also
enable Willdan to review the specific impacts of each option. Their suggestions will be used to refine the options as needed. They will prepare a summary of the general traffic planning factors
regarding the existing site as well as a written summary of the traffic and parking impacts of each option (for inclusion into the Space Study Report).
City's Responsibility During This Task: City personnel may need to be available to Willdan as needed regarding traffic and parking issues. A copy of any prior traffic or parking reports that relate to the existing site will need to be provided to Willdarr Associates.
Develop Conceptual Cost Estimate & Schedule Required To Implement Each Option
For each option, we will develop a conceptual cost estimate and an implementation schedule. The cost estimate will be based on square footage costing of the building shell plus allocations for site development work, furnishings, fixtures and equipment, landscaping, professional fees and other
costs. A certified cost estimating service will be used to supplement the costing experiences of Michael Feerer and Rob Quigley from similar projects in this area.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Suggest New Uses For Existing Facilities If Not Used By City Hall And/or Library
If any of the expansion options do not use some of the existing permanent buildings on the site, we will suggest other civic or community uses for the facilities. These recommendations will be
developed jointly with the Project Committee and will be incorporated as part of the Space Study/ Site Evaluation Report.
City's Responsibility During This Task: Participation by the Project Committee will be needed to suggest other uses for the existing permanent facilities.
Summarize The Advantages & Disadvantages Of Each Option
Based on the above tasks, the advantages and disadvantages of each expansion option will be summarized. This will be compared to the advantages and disadvantages of creating a new facility (such as the City Hall) at another site. The goal of this task is to clearly summarize (for Project Committee review as well as City Council review) the pros and cons of each option, both in regards
to qualitative and quantitative issues. There will be special emphasis on initial project costs as well as long-term operational costs.
City's Responsibility During This Task: None.
Review/Refine Options With Project Committee & Library Management Staff
