PROJECT STAFFING AND BUDGET ......................................................................................... .............................11 TERMS.......................................................................................................................................... .............................12 PROJECT OVERVIEW A. Freedman Tung & Bottomley (FTB), in association with its design subconsultants, will prepare design concept recommendations for the installation of a capital improvement project as follows: Courthouse Square • It is our understanding that at the Broadway side of the 1910 Historic Courthouse building, the City will be demolishing and removing the 1940 Fiscal Building and restoring the portico of the Courthouse Building. A cleared site will be provided to the project. • This project entails the preparation of a conceptual design of a Courthouse Square Plaza according to input received from Community Workshops, other participating group(s), City Council and Commissions, and City Staff. • The Plaza's design may include a special feature such as a fountain or shelter structure, again depending on design direction. • Design recommendations from the FTB team for the Courthouse Square will include the area from the facade of the 1910 Historic Courthouse to the facade of the Historic Fox Theatre (across Broadway), inclusive of the segment of Broadway between Hamilton Street and Middlefield Road. On side street exposures, recommendations will include areas up to the back of curb at Middlefield Road and Hamilton Street. • The completed conceptual design for the Courthouse Square will be the basis for a following construction documents phase (not included in this Scope of Services). 2. Marshall Street frontage landscape It is our understanding that at a future date to be established, the City will demolish the 1941 North Annex building and restore the Marshall Street side of the 1910 Historic Courthouse. As part of this Courthouse Square Conceptual Design process, a conceptual design will be prepared for the grounds of the Marshall Street side of the 1910 Historic Courthouse in anticipation of that future demolition and restoration. Assuming the demolition of the 1941 North Annex Building, the Marshall Street frontage landscape project area is recommended to extend from the to -be- restored Marshal Street facade of the 1910 Historic Courthouse Building to the back of sidewalk across Marshall Street, inclusive of the segment of Marshall between Hamilton Street and Middlefield Road. We recommend inclusion of the street right -of -way in this block to insure a complete consideration of open space form and function.
