HomeMy WebLinkAbout2018-09-11; City Council; ; Agreement with WLC Architects, Inc. to provide architectural and engineering design services for the Fire Station No. 4 AdditionOn May 22, 2018, staff posted a Request for Proposals (RFP) on the city's website for the
solicitation of architectural and engineering design services for the Project. On June 20, 2018,
five consultant proposals were received and copies were distributed to a selection committee
comprised of staff from the Fire and Public Works Departments. Responses to the RFP were
evaluated pursuant to Carlsbad Municipal Code section 3.28.060(A), and each committee
member was required to sign a confidentiality agreement to ensure the fairness of the
procurement process. Proposals were evaluated based on (1) adherence to RFP content and
submission requirements, (2) depth of firm qualifications and experience, (3) depth of Project
team qualifications and related experience, (4) Project team staffing approach and work plan,
(5) client references, and (6) experience working for Southern California municipalities.
On June 26, 2018, the staff selection committee met to share their independent analyses of the
proposals. These evaluations were then tabulated and ranked. The top two proposing firms
were invited to an interview on July 19, 2018. Representatives from the Fire and Public Works
Departments participated in the interviews and collectively selected one of the two firms. Staff
recommends the award of an Agreement for architectural and engineering design services to
WLC for an amount not to exceed $225,920.
The services to be provided for this fee have been divided into three service tasks. The first
service task will include an evaluation of the building design conditions and site constraints,
schematic design services, environmental and civil engineering studies to prepare a new
Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit application, and a
preliminary cost estimate for construction. The second service task will include design
development and plan check submission for review and permitting approval. The third service
task will include construction administration services and Project close out assistance. These
service tasks are detailed further in Exhibit A, which is appended to Attachment A, as part of
Exhibit 1.

further detailed and analyzed. Preliminary drawings shall be prepared for each of these systems
and options which may exist shall be evaluated.
During the Design Development Phase, requirements for cabinets, casework, hardware, and
related specialties shall be determined. A preliminary furniture plan shall be prepared indicating
usage and furniture layout of every work station, office, and support space. Final selection of
materials, textures, and colors shall occur. The Design Development Phase is essentially the time
when preliminary design proposals are refined to a level of detail and developed to a state such
that final construction documents can be initiated. The Design Development Phase is the time
when all final decisions pertaining to the proposed project are evaluated and finalized.
During the Design Development Phase, the following tasks and deliverables have been identified:
A. Design Development Plans
Design development drawings shall be prepared in order to fix and describe the size and
character of the entire project including architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical
design features. A list of furniture, fixtures, and equipment will be developed and coordinated

3. Construction Document Phase
The final Construction Document Phase of the project generally consists of the preparation of the
construction documents to include final drawings, specifications, calculations, and final cost
estimates. Our proposal includes complete and comprehensive architectural and engineering
services required to execute the entire project. Specifically, we have included the following
disciplines:
• Architectural
• Civil Engineering
• Structural Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering
• Electrical Engineering
During this phase, the Contract Documents are prepared setting forth in detail the requirements for
the construction of the project. General conditions, instructions to bidders, and all special
requirements are defined, and when combined with the various trade specifications, a complete
project manual is produced.
During the Construction Document Phase final cost studies shall be prepared. A detailed opinion of
construction cost shall be prepared at the point where final plans and specifications are
approximately 50% complete. Once construction documents have almost been completed, a
revised opinion of cost shall be prepared at the level of approximately 90% completion. Allowable
construction costs will be consistently monitored during the entire process in order to minimize the
possibility of requiring major refinement or modification due to budgetary limits.
The following tasks are specifically proposed for the project:
A. Construction Drawings
Final construction drawings shall be prepared in order to describe and identify the spaces,
sizes, volume, and location in detail for the construction of the project.
B. Project Manual
A project manual shall be prepared to include all instructions to bidders, bidding forms,
general conditions, supplementary special conditions, and the construction trade sections
for the project. The project manual provides detailed technical information pertaining to the
administration of the contract for construction, materials and equipment to be furnished,
acceptable manufacturers, and the requirements for executing the work.
C. Final Design Calculations
Final design calculations shall be prepared and submitted with the final plans and
specifications for review and approval by governing agencies having jurisdiction over the
project. Structural calculations, hydrology/drainage calculations, and mechanical/electrical
(Title 24 Energy Compliance) shall be completed during this phase.

This conditional use permit is granted for a period of five
years. This conditional use permit shall be reviewed by the
Land Use Planning Manager on a yearly ·basis to determine if all
conditions of this permit have been met and that the use does
not have a significant detrimental impact on surround-
ing properties or the public health and welfare. If the Land
Use Planning Manager determines that the use has such
significant adverse impacts, the manager shall recommend that
the Planning Commission, after providing the permittee the
opportunity to be heard, add additional conditions to mitigate
the significant adverse impacts. This permit may be revoked at
any time after a public hearing, if it is found that the use
has a significant detrimental affect on surrounding land uses
and the public's health and welfare, or the conditions imposed
herein have not been met. This permit may be extended for a
reasonable period of time not to exceed five years upon writte
application of the permittee made not less than 90 days prior
to the expiration date. In granting such extension, the
Planning Cow~ission shall find that no substantial adverse
affect on surrounding land uses or the public's health and
welfare will result because of the continuation of the
permitted use. If a substantial adverse affect on surrounding
land uses or the public's health and welfare is found, the
extension shall be considered as an original application for a
conditional use permit. There is no limit to the number of
extensions the Planning Commission may grant.
Building identification and/or addresses shall be placed on all
new and existing buildings so as to be plainly visible from the
street or access road; color of identification and/or addresses
