A. COVER LETTER May 21, 2020 To Whom it May Concern: Richardson & Associates, Landscape Architects, is pleased to submit our qualifications in response to The Fort Williams Park 2021 Master Plan Update Request for Proposals. To meet this requested scope of work we will be teaming with Gorrill Palmer Engineers and Scott Simons Architects, with the possible inclusion of Structural Integrity Consulting Engineers. Our team would be honored to have the opportunity to work with the Town of Cape Elizabeth and The Fort Williams Park Committee, as well as the general public and myriad park users to update the Master Plan to guide the future direction of this extraordinary place. As we hope the enclosed showcases, we have the depth of experience, the credentials, and the collaborative spirit to be a partner with the Town of Cape Elizabeth on this significant project Together we bring many years of experience in creating beautiful and technically sound designs for places of this scale and scope. We are well-versed in master planning and implementation of park and recreational spaces and buildings. We also have a long history of working with municipalities and their communities in Southern Maine, being deeply rooted in these places ourselves. We are excited and inspired by this type of work, understanding that its reach can be broad. The team we have assembled has the knowledge, experience, and ability to meet the needs of this project with excellence. Our team includes the following firms: Richardson & Associates, the team lead, is an award-winning landscape architecture firm located in Saco, Maine, offering a wide range of planning, design, and construction administration services throughout New England since 1991. The firm’s completed work includes a multifaceted balance of private, non-profit, and public projects. R & A’s project history includes a rich and diverse combination of projects throughout New England, with public sector experience that includes municipal parks, civic open spaces, and recreational development. Richardson & Associates maintains a small core of six professionals dedicated to high quality design and planning. Gorrill Palmer is an integrated planning, design, and engineering firm that focuses on transportation, planning, municipal, and land development consulting services. Gorrill Palmer has been providing quality professional service to clients throughout New England since 1998. The committed staff is well respected for their attention to detail and ability to consistently deliver high quality, innovative, and cost-effective work. Along with the team, they believe that a project’s success is built on a thorough understanding of clients’ needs as well as a collaborative, integrated approach to design and public process. The focus of Scott Simons Architects will be exploring a potential visitor center at Fort Williams Park. SSA will work closely with the team, park committee, town administration, stakeholders, and community to ensure the best approach to design for an improved visitor experience at Fort Williams reflects the values of the Cape Elizabeth community. Through dialogue and thoughtful listening, Scott Simons Architects creates compelling places to live, learn, work, and play and is committed to design excellence that is grounded in sustainability and elevates human potential. We have included an optional addition to the core team with the structural engineering firm, Structural Integrity. They are a full service structural engineering firm in Portland, Maine providing services for new construction, restoration, and renovation projects. They are committed to providing clients with a practical yet creative approach to structural design. SI draws on a depth of hands on experience in construction, project management, and consulting engineering to produce the most cost effective and constructible design solutions possible. Good design doesn’t happen in a vacuum. A good design outcome is the result of a good process, one that is innovative, inclusive, and collaborative. This proposal will showcase that this team can do this and more. Collectively this team brings to this project: • A history of service and knowledge for municipalities in southern Maine. • Extensive experience of projects of similar scale and scope. • Excellence in both design and technical skills . • Public process experience with both technically and politically complex projects. • Principal involvement and an integrated team approach. • A successful history of collaboration and innovation. • Exceptional communication and graphic skills. Understanding that the Town of Cape Elizabeth has a limited budget for this project, our proposal presents two options for both fee and services for how the needs of this project can be met. We look forward to the possibility of meeting with you to further review these enclosed materials and answer any questions you or others may have. Do not hesitate to call if you have any additional needs. As a team, we are all driven by an interest in creating places that enrich and provide meaning to the lives of those who use them. We thank you for considering us in the opportunity to do this for the community of Cape Elizabeth. Sincerely, Todd Richardson, FASLA, Principal B.PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF SERVICES THE FUTURE OF FORT WILLIAMS PARK: FROM “OVER-LOVED TO BELOVED” Fort Williams Park is a special and meaningful place. The park has it all - beautiful open space, trails, views, history, a quintessential rocky Maine coastline, and the iconic Portland Head Light, to name just a few of its many attributes. Loved and enjoyed by many, here people come together and enjoy nature with each other or exercise and contemplate views in solitude. Runners, hikers, and dog walkers share roads and trails with cyclists, strollers, and amblers. Cars and tour buses bring out-of-town visitors in droves, while Cape Elizabeth residents arrive via bicycles and sidewalks. Kites are flown, picnic lunches eaten, weddings and events unfold on the lawns, and old forts are explored. In short, Fort Williams Park is doing many jobs for many people. However, the 90 acres that this park encompasses were never designed for all of the jobs it currently assumes. Its origins as an army Fort and the rich history that comes with it make this park truly extraordinary, but also has limited its ability to operate in a fully efficient and cohesive manner. Pair this with increased use over the years and tension is created between the physical capa- bilities, the programming wants and needs, and the many users. As a result, Fort Williams Park feels “over-loved”. Our team is no stranger to complex projects of this nature, and we understand how to manage and lead this process for The Fort Williams Park Committee and The Town of Cape Elizabeth. We’ll look at things with fresh eyes and optimism, distilling the input from the community to find new and dynamic design-oriented solutions. This master plan update must be accessible - both physically and programmatically - for a range of user groups, be flexible enough to allow for change, and address resiliency for an uncertain future. Our goal for a 2021 Master Plan update is to shift the perception of this park from “over-loved” back to “beloved” for all who use it. A PROJECT IN THE TIME OF PANDEMIC: COVID -19 CHALLENGES What we are experiencing right now by living through this pandemic is extraordinary and unique to us all. All on our team are concerned about the well-being of our clients, employees, consultants, communities, friends, and families during this time. We are taking precautions by working remotely and communicating via email, phone, and web platforms and practicing strict social distancing while out at job sites. As the rules and regulations ebb and flow pertaining this to issue, we’ll work with all local and federal guidelines as well as the Town and FWPC to determine the best practices throughout this process. While we are hopeful that things may return to “normal” soon, we also understand that they may never, or what was considered "normal" before may not be in the future. Our team will navigate this change. We will be nimble, adaptable, and fluid as we determine the appropriate processes for gathering input, conducting meetings, and site walks.

  • Connecticut State Parks System
    A Centennial Overview 1913-2013 www.ct.gov/deep/stateparks A State Park Centennial Message from Energy and Environmental Protection Commissioner Robert J. Klee Dear Friends, This year, we are celebrating the Centennial of the Connecticut State Parks system. Marking the 100th anniversary of our parks is a fitting way to pay tribute to past conservation-minded leaders of our state, who had the foresight to begin setting aside important and scenic lands for public access and enjoyment. It is also a perfect moment to commit ourselves to the future of our park system – and to providing first-class outdoor recreation opportunities for our residents and visitors well into the future. Our park system had humble beginnings. A six-member State Park Commission was formed by then Governor Simeon Baldwin in 1913. One year later the Commission purchased its first land, about four acres in Westport for what would become Sherwood Island State Park. Today, thanks to the dedication and commitment of many who have worked in the state park system over the last century, Connecticut boasts a park system of which we can all be proud. This system includes 107 locations, meaning there is a park close to home no matter where you live. Our parks cover more than 32,500 acres and now host more than eight million visitors a year – and have hosted a remarkable total of more than 450 million visitors since we first began counting in 1919. Looking beyond the statistics, our parks offer fantastic opportunities for families to spend time outdoors together. They feature swimming, boating, hiking, picnicking, camping, fishing – or simply the chance to enjoy the world of nature.

  • A Perfect Summer Drive NEW ENGLAND’S MAGAZINE Enjoy This 56-Mile Loop Through Northwest Connecticut
    A Perfect Summer Drive NEW ENGLAND’S MAGAZINE Enjoy this 56-mile loop through northwest Connecticut. Written and narrated by Carol Cambo Photography by Julie Bidwell Listen to the podcast of this tour at YankeeMagazine.com. Welcome to Yankee Magazine’s driving tour of Litchfield County in the northwest corner of Connecticut. This recording follows the 56-mile tour in a counter-clockwise direction, beginning in the town of Litchfield. Set your odometer to zero at the junction of Routes 63 and 202 in downtown Litchfield (1). One of the prettiest towns in New England, Litchfield was founded in 1721 and was the lead- ing commercial, social, cultural, and legal center of northwest Connecticut by the end of that century. It's known especially for local lawyer Tapping Reeve, who systematized his law lectures for young students, creating the Litchfield Law School in 1784. As you travel north out of town on Route 63, you'll see a sign for Pierce Academy on your left (2). Established in 1792, it was one of the first major educational institutions for women in the United States. Notice the stately homes along this stretch of Route 63, many bounded by stone walls. Litchfield's fortunes declined after its golden age of law and education in the 1700s because it didn’t have an adequate water supply or rail transportation. It was rediscovered as a resort community in the late 19th century; at that time the town embraced the Colonial Revival movement, and many of the homes along this stretch bear the evidence in their white clap- boards and black shutters.

  • 2008 State of Connecticut Integrated Water Quality
    2008 STATE OF CONNECTICUT INTEGRATED WATER QUALITY REPORT PURSUANT TO SEC. 305(B) AND 303(D) OF THE FEDERAL CLEAN WATER ACT Introduction and Report Overview This report was prepared to satisfy statutory reporting requirements pursuant to both Sections 305(b) and 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA). CWA Section 305(b) requires each State to monitor, assess and report on the quality of its waters relative to attainment of designated uses established by the State’s Water Quality Standards. Section 303(d) of the CWA requires each State to compile a subset of that list identifying only those waters not meeting water quality standards and assign a priority ranking for each impaired waterbody for Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) development or other management action. These reports are submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) every two years for review and, in the case of waters identified pursuant to Section 303(d), EPA approval. Chapter 1, Consolidated Assessment and Listing Methodology (CT CALM) describes the procedure used by CT-DEP to assess the quality of the State’s waters relative to attainment of Water Quality Standards. The CALM serves to document the protocols used by DEP to assess water quality data as well as establishing minimum standards for data acceptability to insure that only credible data are used to perform the assessments. Although the DEP relies most heavily on data collected as part of the Department’s Ambient Monitoring Program, data from other State and federal Agencies, local governments, drinking water utilities, volunteer organizations, and academic sources are also solicited and considered when making assessments.

  • 20 Unexpected Weekend Getaways to Plan This Summer
    20 Unexpected Weekend Getaways to Plan This Summer You're going to want to plan a trip ASAP to one of these under-the-radar locales that offer outdoor fun, unique attractions, and delicious eats. BY PERRI O. BLUMBERG MAR 3, 2017 • Summertime, and the trip plannin' ain't easy. There's no shortage of tantalizing getaways and epic road trips to explore in America, but to make it a little easier to whittle down your list, we scoured the 50 states to find the best undiscovered gems, perfect for a warm weather getaway. Laconia, New Hampshire or Cape Charles, Virginia may not be on your travel bucket list yet, but you'll soon see why these under-the-radar jewels are ideal for a long weekend filled with outdoor adventures, antique galleries, picturesque beaches, and more. 1 Cape Charles, Virginia • It's pretty hard to stress when you're steps away from the ocean. It's even harder to stress when you're in the laid-back community of Cape Charles, Virginia. Friendly locals, enticing eats (The Shanty is known for its seafood baskets and popping live music scene), and quirky shops (if you're an olive oil enthusiast, load up at Drizzles) all set the scene for endless beach days. Or, at least, they feel that way thanks to a sprawling pier and boardwalk where you can take in orange-pink sunsets. If you're not renting a beach house with a big group, try the funky Cape Charles Hotel where the beds are so comfy, you'll want to know how to replicate them at home (fear not: a binder inside the room reveals the secret).
