Yarmouth Dog Park Proposal.Indd DOG PARK DESIGN Proposal August 31, 2016 Yarmouth Dog Park Design and Costing RFP Prepared for the Town of Yarmouth To: 31 Caroline Robertson August Director of Planning and Development 2016 Town of Yarmouth Town Hall 400 Main Street Yarmouth, Nova Scotia #204 - 5663 Cornwallis Street B4V 4G8 Halifax, Nova Scotia B3K 1B6 +1 (902) 423 0649 [email protected] Re: Dog Park Design and Costing RFP UPLAND is pleased to submit our response to the Request for Proposals for a site design for a Dog Park to be located at 28 Jarvis Road in Yarmouth. Our proposal demonstrates how we can provide the town staff, Steering Committee members, volunteers and residents with an attractive, practical and inspiring park design that will respond to the natural features of the site and allow for possible phased implementation. Our team has the right skills, expertise, relationships, passion and understanding to ensure that the Yarmouth Dog Park design exceeds the expectations of the Steering Committee. Over the past decade, UPLAND’s partners have worked on a number of high-profi le and award-winning parks, trails and open space plans in Atlantic Canada. Our studies, design plans, illustrations and plan documents frequently receive accolades for their outstanding visual quality. With two landscape architects on staff and one of Nova Scotia’s most experienced Civil Engineers on team, we are excited to offer conceptual and detailed design services, construction and tender documentation and cost estimating. Oliver Bence, who has worked on site improvements at the nearby Yarmouth Regional Hospital, will project manage the design. He also has extensive cost estimating experience for landscape architecture projects including for the Indian Beach Restoration project in Cape Breton which was awarded $700,000 of funding last week. Perhaps more importantly, we have the corporate experience and track record to deliver innovative and engaging designs on time and on budget. We are truly excited for the opportunity to work with the Steering Committee on the new Dog Park design and look forward to your response to our proposal.

Responding to our understanding of the project, our objective is... To design a useful and attractive public park that will be enjoyed by dogs and their owners, and also by local residents of all ages and abilities. The following adjectives describe our approach to this project in greater detail: 1. On Site Our design philosophy is centred on celebrating the unique gift of place. In order to achieve this, our team will spend time considerable time on-site to better understand its unique features and challenges. This approach will allow us to develop a context-sensitive park design that respect the local qualities and sense of place. 2. Collaborative In all our work, we strive to maintain a collaborative working relationship with our clients so that they are familiar with the process and enthusiastic about the outcomes. We will work closely with the Steering Committee to ensure that its members who will ultimately be tasked with administering the implementation, are comfortable and knowledgeable about all aspects of the park design. As consultants, a collaborative working relationship also allows us to benefi t from the extensive local expertise and knowledge of our clients. We have allowed for two in-person meetings and one conference call meeting with the Committee for review, feedback and sign-off on individual project phases. Introduction Dog Park Design Page 1 Town of Yarmouth 3. Innovative Innovative solutions require good background data and analytics. We will utilize sound research principles and powerful site design technology to better understand the natural features of the site. This research will be used to support and inform the visual language of fi nal design drawings. Furthermore, through the application of industry-standard software such as ArcGIS, AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite and Trimble Sketchup we will be able to prepare highly legible and attractive depictions of the park’s proposed new features. 4. Accessible and Visually Attractive UPLAND takes pride in presenting its plans with well-illustrated content and plain language writing. Our rendered plans, 3D models, perspective renderings and plan graphics are attractive and easy to understand by the public, volunteers and contractors. Our plans have consistently received accolades for the visual quality of their images and layout. For this project we aim to produce both standard technical AutoCAD drawings for contractors as well as color renderings for visually communicating the design to the general public. 5. Practical There are many expensive, out-of-the-catalog features that could be included in a park like this. However, we pride ourselves on smart design solutions that are attractive, practical and cost-appropriate. We believe spending more time and energy on the initial design will save future headaches and potential cost overruns. Dog Park Design Methodology Town of Yarmouth Page 2 Section 2 Methodology Source: Dennis Jarvis via Flickr 2.1 Work Plan We view this project as a collaborative effort between the Committee and our design team. Therefore, we have allowed for three meetings with the Committee - two in person and one conference call. From a design perspective, we pride ourselves on providing innovative design solutions that celebrate the unique sense of place. Our solutions aim to balance being captivating and exciting while also pragmatic and implementable. The following matrix briefl y describes our proposed work plan which captures our team’s approach as well as the Committee’s objectives for the dog park site design. Assuming a project start up Monday, September 19, 2016, our team will complete the site design by Friday, November 18, 2016.
