AUTHORIZE TOWN MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE AND EXECUTE AGREEMENT WITH NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,766,735.00 FOR SCHEMATIC DESIGN THROUGH CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION SERVICES FOR THE NEW LOS GATOS LIBRARY RECOMMENDATION: 1. Review final conceptual design for the new Los Gatos library. 2. Authorize Town Manager to negotiate and execute agreement with Noll & Tam Architects in an amount not to exceed $1,766,735.00 for schematic design through construction management for the new Los Gatos library. BACKGROUND: On October 1,2007, the Town Council directed staff to proceed with specific plaIming for a new library with the assistance of an architectural firm. Noll & Tam Architects have been working with staff since April 2008 to develop the conceptual design for the new library. In November and December, 2008, the architects presented conceptual design alternatives to Council and the conmlllnity and received input to shape the final conceptual design to be discussed at the January 20,2009 Council meeting. The final conceptual design defines the project for purposes of the environmental evaluation and land use approvals.

AUTHORIZE TOWN MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE AND EXECUTE AGREEMENT WITH NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,766,735.00 FOR SCHEMATIC DESIGN THROUGH CO STRUCTIO 'ADMINISTRATION SERVICES FOR THE EW LOS GATOS LIBRARY JA UARY 14,2009 DISCUSSIO : Final Conceptual Design At the January 20th meeting, the architects will present several elements of the final conceptual design using a PowerPoint presentation (AttaclU11ent 1). These elements include design concepts, site plan, building cross-sections, primary elevations, a 3-dimensional perspective rendering, and a library floor plan with conceptual layout of all library program elements. The conceptual design is based on feedback received from the Council and public in previous meetings, and the library floor plan reflects significant discussions between the architects and Town library staff. Council may provided any additional feedback on the final conceptual design at the meeting of January 20'h , which will be incorporated as the project moves forward to the envirolU11ental review process and detailed design and development phases. Additional changes may be considered on a consequence of environmental review. Staff and the architects continue to refine the cost estimates for the building, parking, demolition and site improvements with the goal of keeping within the $18.4 million approved budget. The cost estimate associated with the final conceptual design remains within this target. As the cost estimates get refined, it is possible that the footprint of the building could be reduced to keep within the approved budget. The furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) costs continue to not be included in the $18.4 million budget as it has always been expected that the community would raise funds to cover these costs. etzel Associates has been engaged by the Friends of the Library group to assist with the campaign to raise these funds on a parallel track with project design and construction. Agreement with Noll & Tam for Next Phase The initial agreement with Noll & Tam, entered into in April, 2008, was for conceptual design services for the new library. At the time of approval of that agreement, staff indicated that upon completion of the conceptual design, staff would determine whether to recommend another agreement with Noll & Tam for the subsequent phases of the project. Staff has been pleased with the architects' services, and they appear to be well-received by the Council and community. Based on their performance and their in-depth knowledge about the project, staff is PAGE 3 MAYOR AI D TOWN COUNCIL/CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE REDEVELOPME T AGENCY SUBJECT: EW LOS GATOS LIBRARY PROJECT A.

AUTHORIZE TOWN MA AGER TO NEGOTIATE AND EXECUTE AGREEME T WITH NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,766,735.00 FOR SCHEMATIC DESIGN THROUGH CONSTRUCTION ADMI lJSTRATION SERVICES FOR THE EW LOS GATOS LIBRARY JA UARY 14,2009 recommending that the Town enter into another agreement with 011 & Tam to provide schematic design through construction administrative services. The scope of work for the subsequent phases (Attachment 2) includes the following key elements: • Schematic design; • Design development documents; • Construction documents; • Interior design services; • Bidding assistance; • Construction administration assistance; • Post-construction evaluation. Details regarding each of these elements are provided in Attaclunent 2. Also included in the proposed scope of work are the proposed fees, high level project budget, and draft project schedule. The proposed fees of$I,766,735.00 represent approximately 12% of the project's construction costs, comprised of approximately 10% for basic architect and engineering services and 2% for specialists' services. Also included are design fees associated with the Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) budget. It is anticipated that the funds raised by the Friends of the Library will be used to reimburse the Town for the FF&E design services. The proposed fees are within the standard range of architect fees for a project of this scale and for the comprehensive services to be provided. The Town will use a standard contract developed by the American Institute of Architects (AlA) as the basis for the agreement with 011 & Tam, with modifications as needed. An important term that will be part of the agreement will address the issue of potential redesign due to unexpectedly-high construction bids, such as occurred in the first bidding process for the police operations building. The agreement will require the architect to redesign the project as needed to reduce the construction cost commensurate with the project budget. It is anticipated that the Town will use the typical design-bid-build process to construct the library, including a phase to pre-qualify contractors as was used in the police facility project. Prior to the final determination regarding the process, Town staff will review other possible construction delivery methods to ensure that the one selected is the best approach for the Town. The Assistant Town Manager (ATM) and the Town Engineer (TE) will be co-project managers PAGE 4 MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL/CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY SUBJECT: NEW LOS GATOS LIBRARY PROJECT A.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council authorize the Town Manager to negotiate and execute and agreement with Noll & Tam Architects to provide schematic design tlu·ough construction administration services in an amount not to exceed $1,766,735.00. Unless directed otherwise, staff will use the final conceptual design as presented to initiate any required envirolUllental and land use review. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: Is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further action action is required. FISCAL IMPACT: Sufficient nmds are available for the new library project as previously identified in the staff report discussing options for the development of a new library presented to Council on October 1, 2007 as follows: .

AUTHORIZE TOWN MANAGER TO NEGOTJATE AND EXECUTE AGREEMENT WITH NOLL & TAM ARCHITECTS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,766,735.00 FOR SCHEMATIC DESIGN THROUGH CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION SERVICES FOR THE NEW LOS GATOS LIBRARY JANUARY 14,2009 It is important to note that the estimates of funds available from a future RDA bond issue are subject to change. The estimate of funds is based on the growth rate of the assessed valuation in the Town RDA project area and prevailing interest rates in tax-exempt municipal markets at the time the final financing plan is adopted and the bonds are issued. At present there is a great deal of uncertainty in the credit markets, which is reported to be adversely impacting the municipal bond market. Staff continues to monitor developments in the credit markets and believes that by next fall, normalcy should return to the municipal bond market. The Town's financial advisor and staff will be analyzing developments to ascertain the best timing to go to market for the planned issuance of the certificates of participation. IfRDA bond funds prove to be less than estimated, the footprint of the building could be reduced (1,000 sq. ft. equals approximately $500,000) and other current revenue sources considered.
