Task No. 11. — Public Outreach (KPFF, LMN, and Swift) KPFF, LMN and Swift shall support the City by assisting in the development and implementation of a public outreach plan. It is assumed that the public outreach plan will follow the general outline below: Step 1 >> Project Research and Data Gathering The design team will research and gather existing information related to the project and begin early work such as field exploration and surveying. Step 2 >> Basis of Design and Alternative Screening Parameters With the knowledge gained through the document research and early work, the design team will work with the City to develop a Basis of Design. The Basis of Design document will define the regulatory requirements as well as the site constraints used in the development of the project alternatives. In addition to the design criteria, the design team will work with the City to establish the key parameters that will be used to evaluate and rank the various alternatives. Step 3 >> Cross Agency Partnership Workshop The design team will meet with the City and select agency partners to verify and receive buy-in regarding the Basis of Design and the evaluation parameters for the alternative screening. Swift Company, LLC effort is not included in this task. Step 4 >> Alternative Development The design team will hold an internal team workshop to review previously proposed utility alignments and bridge types and brainstorm additional utility alignments and bridge types. The goal of the workshop is the creation of a starting point to begin the project discussions with the City. The ideas generated in this workshop will be used to jumpstart the discussion for a design charrette between the design team and City. The design team will generate sketches to be used in a workshop with the City. The design team will hold a workshop with City staff to discuss possible alignments and bridge alternatives related specifically to the utility alignment. In preparation for the workshop, the design team will have preliminarily coordinated the following items: • Bridge aesthetics ideas • Structural alternatives • Utility alignment alternatives • Aerial basemap • Permit requirements search • Basis of design documentation The topics for discussion during the workshop will include available right-of-way, pedestrian and bicyclist experiences, preliminary construction costs, City property lines, adjacent property lines, and environmental considerations including topography and pathway geometrical constraints. The goal of the City workshop is the selection of a range of possible bridge types and pathway alignments. Step 5 >> Cross Agency Partnership Workshop and Public Outreach The range of ideas developed in Step 4 will be used to create alternatives that will be presented to select stakeholders and the general public. The alternatives will go through KPFF Consulting Engineer November 10, 2014 Grand Avenue Park Utility Bridge, Phase 1A Page 31 of 55
