Given that the Ranch has been designated by Colorado Preservation, Inc, as one of Colorado’s Most Endangered Places since 2018, we are excited at the prospect of assisting Park County in making progress towards rehabilitating the House to its former historic character and giving it new life as a functional community asset. The Ranch sits on the Cline Ranch State Wildlife Area within the larger South Park National Heritage Area, which is known for its abundance of historic and natural resources. Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates Inc. (WJE) understands the Park County Department of Heritage and Tourism has worked with other community partners for many years to protect these resources and ensure the preservation and enjoyment of the rich agricultural and ranching history in this region. These efforts are represented in the Tarryall-Cline Ranch rehabilitation project. We believe our local WJE Denver team possesses an effective balance of technical expertise, practical repair approach, and individual passion for our work and community that will be beneficial to the sensitive and regionally significant work at the Tarryall-Cline Ranch. Our Denver office has a qualified interdisciplinary team of in-house Structural Engineers, Architects, and Geotechnical Engineers to address the intricacies of this project. Additionally, we have WJE’s national resources at our fingertips, including expertise from professionals at our thirty offices and Material Scientists at our materials and testing laboratory. We have assembled an experienced team to demonstrate our unique qualifications. WJE and our subconsultants, 360 Engineering, enLighten Engineering, and ATC Group Services, look forward to the opportunity to assist Park County in the successful and rewarding completion of this project. Please review our attached submittal, and if there are any questions or you need any additional information, please feel free to contact us at your convenience. PROJECT BACKGROUND The historic Tarryall-Cline Ranch was acquired by Park County in 2010 in conjunction with Colorado Parks and Wildlife to establish the Cline Ranch State Wildlife Area. The previous owner placed the 1,635-acre property under a conservation easement, setting aside the 10-acre Ranch headquarters and surrounding area for use by Park County. The Ranch sits within the larger South Park National Heritage Area, which is managed by the South Park National Heritage Area Advisory Board. A Historic Structure Assessment (HSA) of the Ranch headquarters was conducted in 2011 and a Master Plan completed for the site in 2016 in conjunction with the South Park National Heritage Area. According to the HSA, the Ranch has been mostly unoccupied since about 2001. The Tarryall-Cline Ranch Main House (the House) is one of several buildings comprising the Ranch headquarters area, located off of Highway 285 between Jefferson and Como, Colorado. The two-story, wood framed building was built in 1928. The House is an example of the Pueblo Revival style, with Spanish Eclectic influences, and was an unusual application for a working ranch in Colorado at the time. It has a concrete foundation with rubble masonry veneer, stucco cladding, and a flat roof with a distinctive WJE No. 2021.1928 | APRIL 6, 2021 Page 1 Tarryall -Cline Ranch Planning, Design, and Construction Documents Response to Request for Proposal parapet that was over framed with a shingled gable roof in the 1980’s. The main entrance is on the south facade, which has a prominent, full-width rubble masonry porch with a hipped roof. The interior layout is largely unchanged and features original wood flooring, rubble masonry fireplaces, finish carpentry, cabinetry, doors, and some original plaster work. Attempts have been made to modernize the building, but the plumbing and electrical are non-functioning and there is no mechanical heating, cooling, or ventilation system. Currently, the House does not meet accessibility standards. The House has severely deteriorated over the years from disuse and harsh weather, most notably the foundation, stucco, and original wood windows. Several tactics have been employed to stem the deterioration, such as temporary stabilization and polycarbonate window coverings. WJE understands Park County wishes to move forward with repair work on the House, building off the design intent for the House given in the Master Plan, by having construction drawings prepared for use by a qualified contractor. The scope of the repair work, as laid out in the Request for Proposal, includes planning, design and construction documents for rehabilitation of the foundation, structure, building
