DISCUSSION
Dedicated in May 1950, Memorial Park is located in the central -south area of the City of
Santa Ana and stretches 16.3 acres. The community center and pool are both of the
original 1956 installation requiring more than routine maintenance and renovations.
Additionally, the floor plan layout does not meet today's programming needs and
requires redesign and construction.
On April 27, 2023, the Public Works Agency (PWA) released Request for Proposal
(RFP) No. 23-061, Architectural Design Services for a Park Master Plan and new
Aquatics Facility at Memorial Park. The master plan will provide a comprehensive
feature plan for future park improvements. The main scope of work is to provide design
services to prepare plans and specifications for construction of the aquatics facility.
The RFP was advertised on the City's online procurement management and publication
system with proposals due on June 7, 2023. Twelve proposals were received and
evaluated by a selection committee based on criteria outlined in the RFP. Four
proposals were short listed and firms were invited to conduct an in -person presentation.
As a result, ELS Architecture + Urban Design and SWA Group was selected to provide
the design services for this project. Based on evaluation criteria and in -person
presentations, the following summarizes the top four responding firms and their ranking.

ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SERVICES
FOR A PARK MASTER PLAN & NEW AQUATICS FACILITY
At MEMORIAL PARK
RFP NO.23-061
INTRODUCTIONBACKGROUND
Memorial Park, dedicated in May 1950, is a 16.3-acre city park located in the central -south area of
the City of Santa Ana, surrounded by residential properties. It is bordered by Santa Ana Memorial
Park Drive to the west, Flower Street to the east, West Saint Gertrude Place to the north and West
Anahurst Place to the south. It falls within the Santa Ana Memorial Park Neighborhood Association
limits, but being classified as a city park, it serves the entirety of the city of Santa Ana. The park
was dedicated by former Governor Earl Warren as a living memorial for future generations to honor
"the heroic lives who carried the battle for democracy".
The park is currently comprised of four ballfields, concession/restroom building, basketball courts,
volleyball court, handball court, fitness equipment area, playground area, band shell and lawn areas,
walkway, lighting, and the city's largest municipal swimming pool. The park is an island
configuration surrounded by parking.
Planning for Memorial Park began in 1947; development began shortly thereafter and the new
facilities were added to the park system in 1950. The community center and pool are both of the
original 1956 installation and are a traditional "bath house" type design. Existing facilities are
very old and deteriorated; deferred maintenance is now deferred capital. Facilities must be
rebuilt, as routine maintenance and renovations are no longer effective. The swimming pool shell
and walls of the pool equipment room have cracked. In addition to the buildings age and poor
condition, the floor plan layout does not meet today's programming needs. Much of the site
hardscape is cracked and there are numerous drainage issues. Amenities that have been added
over the years did not follow a master plan, and their layouts do not efficiently utilize the site.
This project will examine the entire east half of Memorial Park, from the east ballfield fence line
to Flower Street, including all components within this range, and provide a strategic method of
redevelopment. This shall include complete demolition and rebuilding the aquatics facility (bath
house, pool, pool equipment building). Refer to Exhibit 1 for aerial depiction.

SUBJECT: RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SERVICES FOR PARK MASTER PLAN & NEW AQUATICS FACILITY AT
MEMORIAL PARK - RFP NO.: 23-061
The els+swa team is pleased to submit our qualifications and proposal for the Park Master
Plan and New Aquatics Facility at Memorial Park. ELS Architecture and Urban Design
and SWA Group — els+swa — have collaborated on award -winning designs for more than
35 years and are poised to bring their robust combination of experience and knowledge to a
Master Plan of Memorial Park's East End and the reimagination of a new Memorial Park
Aquatics Center. The collaborative design work of els+swa has resulted in a combined
investment exceeding $750MM in multiple communities throughout California and beyond.
For this assignment, ELS will serve as the prime consultant and Architect -of -Record for the
aquatic center and SWA will serve as the Landscape Architect -of -Record for the Memorial
Park East End Master Plan.
Through their two firms, Clarence D. Mamuyac, Jr., FAIA, LEED AP BD+C, of ELS and
Stephen Rydzon, ASLA, PLA, of SWA, have enjoyed vibrant professional collaborations
spanning multiple decades, executing parks and recreation master -planning and aquatic
center design services for several municipalities. Together, these have included the cities
of Elk Grove, Oxnard, Redwood City, Mountain View, Millbrae, Santa Clara, and South San
Francisco, and the public -education entities of the Santa Rosa Junior College District, the
San Mateo County Community College District, and the Marin Community College District.
Our two firms are currently in a major collaboration with East Los Angeles College — for
a new home of the Huskies, currently a part of the Netflix docuseries, Last Chance U.
Clarence and Stephen look forward to bringing this experience to the City of Santa Ana.
The els+swa team is uniquely qualified to partner with the City of Santa Ana, Santa Ana
Public Works' Division of Parks and Recreation, and the multiple and diverse stakeholder
groups who enjoy and rely on Memorial Park and Pool as an important social gathering place
of leisure, wellness, sports, and recreation. We are highlighting six key characteristics of our
team:
• Award -Winning Landscape Architecture and Park Master Plans throughout Southern
California: SWA is recognized nationally and internationally for design excellence. The swa
award -winning portfolio includes, in addition to our projects as els+swa such as the recently
opened Elk Grove Commons and Aquatics Center, the following notable Southern California
projects: The Irvine Great Park, the Jeffrey Open Space, the Ontario Great Park, the Ricardo
Lara Linear Park and the Terrmor Rec Center. SWA looks forward to bringing this experience
to the Memorial Park, East End master planning process.
California Community Design Leaders in Aquatics, Wellness and Recreation
Architecture: els has a nationally recognized portfolio of architecture and design, including
LOS ANGELES 1213.348.1155 BERKELEY 1510.549.2929 SACRAMENTO 1916.301.4411
950 S. Grand Avenue, Suite 400 2040 Addison Street 800 Howe Avenue, Suite 330
Los Angeles, CA 90015 Berkeley, CA 94704 Sacramento, CA 95825
200+ awards for design excellence and a place among the prestigious ARCHITECT 50,
a listing of the top 50 architecture firms in the United States for Design, Business and
Sustainability. In addition to work performed as els+swa, ELS has a portfolio including the
AIA award -winning LEED Silver East Oakland Community Recreation and Aquatics Center;
the Morgan Hill Aquatics Center, the first LEED Silver aquatics center in the United States;
and three top -five NCAA centers for competitive swimming, water polo and diving at the
University of Southern California, Stanford University, and UC Berkeley. With this experience
as our guide, we will generate a series of comprehensive aquatic center design ideas that
embrace the aquatics need and explore ways of further enhancing the plan for Memorial
Park.
Proven Community Engagement and Consensus Building Process: els+swa, in concert
with City of Santa Ana leadership, will customize our proven outreach and workshop process
to the needs of this effort. We use a combination of Consensus Building Community
Workshops and Community Based Social Marketing (CBSM) techniques to remove any
barriers to maximum community participation — especially critical during post -pandemic
times and in communities where English and Spanish are spoken. To further strengthen
communication during this process, the els+swa team has a contingent of Spanish-speaking
designers ready to assist with engagement. Our team also brings significant resources in
the form of stakeholder mapping data, media and communications relations, and a familiarity
with Memorial Park and the surrounding neighborhood context. We look forward to tailoring
our proven outreach and consensus building process to fit the exact needs and scope for
Santa Ana.
CEQAINEPA Experience with the City of Santa Ana: The els+swa team will engage with
Rincon Consultants, who bring significant knowledge of Santa Ana through work on -call
services with the City of Santa Ana, specifically Rincon's work with Santa Ana's Community
Development Agency, the Westview Housing Project IS-MND and the Cabrillo Mixed -Use
Town Center. And finally, els+swa has worked closely with Rincon on our South Oxnard
Aquatic Center for both CEQA and NEPA analysis; NEPA is required for application to Build
Back Better Act funding, similar to the requirements that are identified for the Memorial
Park funding via the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). We are also collaborating with
Rincon on City of Berkeley assignments under Measure TT, a city-wide bond for parks and
recreation infrastructure improvements, and on a new community aquatics center for the City
of Piedmont. els+swa and Rincon can tap the significant body of knowledge on issues and
jurisdictions impacting Memorial Park and its aquatic center's reimagination, while reading
the "temperature" of immediate neighbors who seek a voice in developing the project's
Master Plan.
els+swa
Experienced and Successful Team: els+swa proposes a core team
of architects, landscape architects, designers and engineers that can
provide the vision, leadership, and technical skills required to gauge the
opportunities of each site and realize City of Manhattan Beach goals.
Our key members are: Clarence D. Mamuyac, Jr., FAIA, LEED AP, BD+C
(Principal-in-Charge/Project Manager - ELS); Stephen Rydson, ASLA
(Principal for Park Master Planning — SWA), Kim -Van Truong, AIA, LEED
AP BD+C (Project Architect - ELS); Kenneth Hasegawa, AIA (Design
Principal - ELS); Dana Vollmer -Grant, Assoc. AIA, WELL AP, 5X Olympic
Gold Medalist, CBSM (Aquatics Programming Specialist — ELS); Chris
Anderson, ASLA (Project Landscape Architect — SWA); and Beckie Denio,
AIA, LEED AP (Sr. Construction Administrator — ELS). Each person can
draw on prior successful collaborations that achieved planning and design
excellence for multiple municipalities, particularly aquatic, recreation, and
wellness projects with complex programs on challenging sites. Joining this
core team: Aquatic Design Group (Aquatics); KPFF (Civil); John A. Martin
and Associates (Structural), Guttmann and Blaevoet (Mech/Elect/Plumb/
Fire Protection) and Mack5 (Cost Estimating), all of whom have shared in
els+swa's 35-year portfolio of collaboration.
For several decades, Memorial Park neighborhood residents and visitors
have enjoyed the 17-acre Memorial Park and Pool through softball and
baseball games, soccer, basketball, volleyball, picnicking, swimming, and
perhaps car club events. Whether providing space for a solitary stroll or
hosting an age -group swimming meet, water polo match, or USA Masters'
event, Memorial Park can do it all. It is, quite simply, an extraordinary
neighborhood asset. The addition of a new community aquatics center will
create new and enhanced engagements with all the park has to offer. It
will create new pedestrian and bike system linkages throughout the park,
reinforce the park as a living memorial, and augment the Roberto Del
Hoyo mural, the stage, the beautiful mature trees, and inviting lawn areas.
Memorial Park is set to realize a dream for the neighborhood and Santa
Ana, a transformation that will keep Memorial Park as a community treasure
in this century and beyond.
We will look forward to your next steps. Should you require any additional
information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Clarence
at our Los Angeles Office, 213.348.1155, by mobile phone at 510.684.1159,

ELS Architecture and Urban Design, of els+swa, has 40+ years of
successful collaboration, totaling $500MM+ in construction value, with
general contractors on a range of CM project delivery types including CM at
Risk, CM -Design Assist, CM -LEAN, CM -Design Assist/Donor Development
Delivery-P3, and Design/Build. Several of our projects have fallen within
one of these delivery models on both municipal and higher education
projects. Some of our general contractor collaborators and partners include
Bernards, Turner, Rudolph and Sletten, Pankow, Swinerton, Vance Brown
Builders, Blach Construction and Kitchell.
Following are some representative CMAR and CM projects delivered:
• For the City of Oakland, we completed the East Oakland Sports
Center, which was honored by AIA San Francisco and AIA East Bay
for design excellence, and was delivered under a CMAR model. The
$20MM LEED Silver certified project was a collaboration with Turner
Construction.
• For the University of California, Berkeley, we teamed with Vance
Brown Builders for a two-phase Legends Aquatic Center and a major
expansion to the existing Spieker Aquatics Stadium. Phase I, the
$20MM California Legends Aquatic Center was honored by the AIA
East Bay for design excellence. The Legends Aquatic Center was
delivered under a CMAR process.
• For Stanford University, our collaborative efforts with Vance Brown
Builders, under a CMAR delivery process, led to six award -winning
projects, including the renovation of the historic Burnham Pavilion,
the Ford Centerfor Sports and Student Recreation, the Taube Family
Tennis Stadium, the Avery Aquatic Center and Maas Diving Center,
and renovations to Maples Pavilion.
• For the City of Santa Clara, we are currently teamed with Rudolph
& Sletten on a $100MM+ project that includes the re -visioning
and re -building of the International Swim Center (ISC) and the
Community Recreation Center (CRC). The ISC and CRC combine
to provide four pools (a pair of 50M competition pools, a dive
pool, and a recreation/fun-water pool) and 120,000 square feet of
community recreation facilities including a gymnasium, cardio area,
indoor track, rock -climbing wall, theater, community hall, and several
multipurpose activity rooms. The project is positioned for a Public/
Private/Partnership delivery as a Design/Build/Finance/Operate/
Maintain (DBFOM) project.
For the State Center Community College District, we complet-
ed a $40MM historic renovation and seismic upgrade of the Old
Administration Building at Fresno City College, which was one of
the country's first junior colleges and was the first college in Cali-
fornia's Community College system. ELS led a programming effort
that repurposed the historic building into a state-of-the-art teaching
facility for both lectures and distance learning, as well as a show-
piece for performing arts. The project was delivered under a CM/
Multiple Prime format. ELS collaborated with Kitchell (as Bond Pro-
gram Manager for the District) on this extraordinary project, which
was honored by the AIA California Council, SCUP/AIA-CAE and the
National Trust for Historic Preservation for design and preservation
excellence. The Construction Manager for our project was Harris
Construction.

ects delivered via CMAR, please see Tab Id.

1d. Understanding of Need
PART I - CONCEPT PLANNING
Memorial Park East End Master Plan and Aquatic
Center Concept Design
30% PS&E (Preliminary Design/Concept Planning)
A successful master planning and design process supports dialogue be-
tween all parties and pursues consensus -based decision -making. To that
end, visioning, programing, master planning and conceptual design for the
Memorial Park - East End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center will
require els+swa to work closely with the City of Santa Ana Public Works
Agency, Park Services Division (Santa Ana PWA, PSD), and other stake-
holders, such as the Santa Ana Memorial Park Neighborhood Association,
or others as deemed appropriate by the City of Santa Ana. The intent is to
achieve, through work sessions and cooperative collaboration, a consen-
sus -based vision, program, and design framework, which will quickly and
effectively be applied to the Memorial Park Master Plan + Reimagined
Aquatic Center. Our approach to this critical initial effort is based upon the
following five components:
1. Design Communication in Multiple Languages: Communicating to
the widest possible audience during the visioning, programming, mas-
ter planning and conceptual design effort requires a team with deep
cross-cultural understanding and a strong awareness of the communi-
ty's diverse composition. We understand that Spanish and English are
commonly spoken by people living in City of Santa Ana, many of whom
frequent Memorial Park. The els+swa team includes architects,
landscape architects and design professionals who are fluent in Span-
ish and the community engagement process, and who will participate
as "project ambassadors" to establish a welcoming and inclusive tone
and to encourage greater community participation in a robust charrette
process.
2. Creative Planning: Preparation of the visioning, programming, mas-
ter planning and conceptual design effort requires a project tea'
combines strength of analysis with expertise in park planning, commu-
nity recreation and aquatics center design, and LEED/Zero Net Energy
(ZNE) strategies. Effective planning begins with the ability to analyze
complex conditions, identify key opportunities and constraints, and
formulate creative solutions. The els+swa team, in collaboration with
stakeholders, will quickly select alternate concepts for enhancing the
east portion of Memorial Park. We will evaluate, test, and collabo-
ratively select a preferred Memorial Park - East End Master Plan +
Reimagined Aquatic Center Concept, which will embody the opti-
mal planning and design response to functional, financial, visual, and
environmental requirements to help achieve a successful conceptual
design and associated cost estimate.
Unplugged Design (ZNE): With sustainability always in mind,
els+swa' projects start from the premise that buildings should be de-
signed to perform independently from any building system. We orient,
shape, and shade buildings to maximize daylighting, to reduce heat
gain in summer while allowing it in winter, and to take advantage of
natural ventilation when useful. This bioclimatic approach allows us to
eliminate or minimize building systems to reduce the need for on -site
renewable energy production. Optimizing building envelopes reduces
loads and supplies the right amount of thermal mass to make buildings
comfortable for occupants while requiring little energy for building sys-
tems. In developing our conceptual design package, we will perform
a detailed site and climate analysis as the basis of our ZNE approach.
By understanding the opportunities inherent in the eastern portion of
the Memorial Park site, we can choose design strategies that take
maximum advantage of the site and climate to reduce building loads
and supply on -site energy.
Placemaking Design: To realize the full potential envisioned for the
Memorial Park - East End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Cen-
ter via the visioning, programming, master planning and conceptual
design process, els+swa will identify and build on existing and future
park and aquatic center physical connections, patterns, and systems.
To this end, we will prepare a final conceptual master plan that creates
a strong yet flexible framework that addresses Santa Ana's circulation
requirements and presents a master planning strategy and architectur-
al image that ensures a memorable and enduring place.
CEQA/NEPA - Realistic Solutions/Problem Solving: Successful
development concepts require visionary yet realistic planning that
meets social, economic, and physical design goals, leading to a mas-
ter plan that can be successfully CEQA/NEPA-certified. The visioning,
programming, master planning and conceptual design for the Memo-
rial Park - East End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center will
account for political, economic, and functional realities. els+swa will
work closely with the City of Santa Ana and the Parks and Recreation
Commission, and other key stakeholders to ensure a functional and
feasible concept. Most importantly, a Memorial Park - East End
Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center Concept that earns
CEQA/NEPA certification by the City Council, by dates required for
funding per the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), as well as com-
pleting the Construction Documents for Phase I, Aquatics Facility, for
public advertisement and bid by April 2024.
Our approach to completing PART 1, Task 1 and Task 2, per the RFP is
proposed below. Based on several assignments similar in many aspects
to yours, we would like to offer a more detailed and tailored outreach,
master planning and concept effort that we believe will support a success-
ful Memorial Park - East End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center
Concept design process. We intend to submit all the deliverables listed
under Task 1 — Preliminary Concept Planning and Task 2 — Final Concept
Plan, but just in a slightly different order. Accordingly, we hope you like the
proposed program outlined below. Of course, we are open to discussing,
modifying, and adjusting this program to meet the City of Santa Ana's spe-
cific needs. We believe our community engagement and concept design
effort will result in the most robust, community informed community de-
sign process for the Memorial Park - East End Master Plan + Reimagined
Aquatic Center Final Concept.
TASK 0 — CEQA/NEPA
Rincon's work scope involves the preparation of an IS-MND CEQA and an
EA under NEPA. We anticipate that these are the appropriate CEQA and
NEPA documents; however, if our analysis determines that the project may
have a potential significant and unavoidable environmental impact, Rincon
will contact els+swa, who will in turn contact the City of Santa Ana, to im-
mediately determine an appropriate course of action, including preparation
of a project EIR, if warranted.
Following is an outline or Rincon's proposed effort, which falls under PART
1 and Part 2 and the effort approximately coincides with the completion of
100% Construction Documents. For detailed description of Rincon's scope
and fees, we have included a copy of their proposal with our sealed fee
proposal.

TASK 1 — PRELIMINARY CONCEPT PLANNING
Task 1.1 Project Understanding and Confirmation
Task 1.1.1 Background Document Review 1 Site Reconnaissance
In addition to our review of documentation made available thus far, els+swa
will review and evaluate additional pertinent documentation, including pre-
programming information, plans, inventories, studies, etc., to understand the
content of previous studies and the existing context, including the extensive
efforts by the City to gain familiarity with hot button development issues with
the Memorial Park East End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center
site and project. We will build upon our knowledge gathered during the
RFP process, as well as our familiarity with Memorial Park and surrounding
context. Our base data and archival history of Memorial Park, gained
through our site visits, will be supplemented by a photographic survey of the
existing conditions of the site.
Task 1.1.2 Opportunities & Constraints Analysis
els+swa will create a series of diagrams and maps that communicate
our analysis and understanding of the Memorial Park East End Master
Plan+ Reimagined Aquatic Center study area and its surroundings, and
we will use this analysis to develop our current preliminary thinking of the
program and site. These graphic products will assimilate collected data
and clearly identify opportunities and constraints and will be utilized in our
Program and Design Confirmation Workshop Series. Among the issues to
be analyzed are goals for improving, enhancing connection between the
Memorial Park Pool and the adjacent Memorial Park amenities; traffic flow
and parking as it relates to South Flower Street, West Anahurst Place and
West Saint Gertrude Place; master planned circulation systems; overall
design character (linkages and nodes) and architectural character; "hard -
soft" open space analysis; development opportunities and constraints; and
other site issues as appropriate.
Task 1.1.3 Draft Program Based Upon RFP Information
els+swa will produce a draft program based upon els+swa benchmarking
resources and information provided thus far. The purpose of the draft is to
confirm the current program thinking, and to determine the level of further
programming study needed. If additional study or programming is needed,
we understand that the Santa Ana PWA, PSD, will provide such direction.
Deliverables for Task 1: Draft work plan, schedule, explanatory maps, and
diagrams identifying development opportunities and constraints and draft
program.
TASK 1.2 KICK-OFF, SITE WALK, ASSESSMENT AND PROGRAM
ANALYSIS
Task 1.2.1 Project Kick -Off Meeting 1 Site Walk
els+swa will meet with the Santa Ana PWA, PSD, and others as directed by
the Santa Ana PWA, PSD to develop project milestones, a project schedule
and a plan for community outreach and engagement. This will establish a
mutual understanding of roles, responsibilities, and paths of communication,
as well as clarify the scope, issues, and objectives of the work program —
specifically, what are the unique development opportunities beyond those
identified in the RFP. In addition to initiating the project, els+swa and
certain els+swa consultants will do a "site walk" with Santa Ana PWA, PSD
members to further familiarize ourselves with the general physical conditions
of both sites. A Preliminary Project Schedule will be presented with task and
milestone targets to confirm previously targeted milestone dates, including
targeted completion date.
Product: Refined Scope and Schedule as necessary.
Client Input: Background materials and studies.
Task 1.2.2. Coordination & Consultation with Santa Ana PWA, PSD
els+swa will coordinate and regularly consult with Santa Ana PWA, PSD
to ensure that necessary information and documentation are received,
reviewed, and incorporated with the work product in a timely manner. Santa
Ana PWA, PSD may choose to involve representatives from interested
government agencies, other consultants to the Santa Ana PWA, PSD and/or
key stakeholders in these meetings. Our proposed scope includes all video
conference calls, other forms of electronic and telephonic communication,
and as -needed unscheduled meetings with Santa Ana PWA, PSD/els+swa
over the proposed project timeframe.
Product. Participation in meetings identified in the work plan.
Client Input: Attendance / participation in Project Administration Meetings.
TASK1.3—COMMUNITYOUTREACH, ENGAGEMENT, PROGRAMMING
AND CONCEPT DESIGN
Task 1.3.1 Coordinate with Key Stakeholders.
els+swa, in collaboration with Santa Ana PWA, PSD, will coordinate
meetings with Memorial Park Community Stakeholders to discuss goals
and garner input regarding the community engagement strategies
as the project moves forward. With the confirmation and approval by
the Santa Ana PWA, PSD, key stakeholders could include Santa Ana
Councilmembers and Commissioners, Santa Ana City Department
Leaders, service organizations, local community leaders, residents, and
other advocacy groups that reflect the demographics and perspectives of
the community.
Task 1.3.2: Develop a Community Outreach Plan.
With input from the Key Stakeholder meetings in Task 1.3.1, els+swa,
together with the Santa Ana PWA, PSD, will develop a Community
Outreach Plan that outlines the steps to engage community members.
The Community Outreach Plan will build upon the work completed through
previous engagement processes and refine community interests. The plan
will include a schedule with timing for release, distribution, and placement
of publicity items, and a list of potential co-sponsors and co -promoters to
assist with outreach and organizing of festive activities (e.g., donated local
food and entertainment) to maximize participation and positive input at
community events.
Produce Materials:
els+swa will produce e-flyers and e-posters publicizing events for
community -wide distribution.
Distribute Materials:
Local businesses and religious and service organizations will
be solicited to distribute flyers and information about the events
through their networks. With the approval of Santa Ana PWA,
PSD and the school district, all campuses within the district will
be solicited to promote events to the student body and families
(flyers, newsletters, etc.). Information about the project will also be
circulated via social media and the City's website. All solicitations
above will be executed by the City of Santa Ana staff.
Media Outreach:
Announcements and press releases will be distributed to local
media. els+swa will assist with all press announcements but will
require a designated City staff member to comment and approve all
announcements and press releases before issuance by els+swa.
Task 1.3.3: Community Works hops/Charrettes/Prog ram and Concept
Development.
We suggest that each workshop be held at a consistent time and day of
the week and that it be widely published in local media outlets and on
social networks. We encourage the sessions to be streamed live and
archived to allow a broad range of availability to those who are not able
to attend live sessions, which is critical to the success of any engagement
process, and the Memorial Park East End Master Plan + Reimagined
Aquatic Center Design Process is no exception. At this point we are
planning to facilitate three Community Workshops. Should we need to add,
drop, or modify sessions, we are prepared to do so once the Santa Ana
PWA, PSD and els+swa have a clearer understanding of the need.
Each workshop is preceded by a preview session with the Santa Ana PWA,
PSD, and any others as directed by the Santa Ana, PWA, PSD. The goal
of each preview session is to give attendees a sense of the upcoming
community workshop and confirm goals and objectives. This is also a
chance to finalize the agenda for publication and distribution to the broader
Santa Ana Community. We have named the three proposed workshops as
follows:
Community Workshop #1 — Gallery Walk (Program Confirmation)
Community Workshop #2 —Alternate Concepts (Presentation
Concepts + Preferred Concept Selection)
Community Workshop #3 — Preferred Concept Presentation
(Critique and Final Stakeholder Comments)
For all three Community Workshops, logistics are proposed as
follows:
els+swa will prepare display boards for the Gallery Walk and
arrange for delivery to the event site and will take responsibility
of setting up the display (we would like the city to store the large
display boards "on -site," as they're intended to be used for multiple
events, including the Opening Day at the new Memorial Park
Aquatic Center);
els+swa can provide large format video equipment including
screen, projector, and laptop; and
els+swa will rely on City of Santa Ana staff to reserve the meeting
venue and all other equipment and furnishings necessary to host
community workshops. Staff to provide public address system,
room set-up with tables and chairs, and all other public gathering
needs.
Task 1.3.3.1 COMMUNITY WORKSHOP #1 - GALLERY WALK and
PROGRAM CONFIRMATION
Proposed Agenda for Pre -Workshop #1 Meeting with the SANTAANA
PWA, PSD:
A. Dates and location of Community Workshops #1, #2 and #3 are
agreed upon.

discussed and modified, as necessary.
C. els+swa will access previous study efforts, documentation, community
outreach, stakeholder input, and survey results, and will identify the
components needed to maximize usage, minimize environmental
impacts, and meet the current and future needs of the community.
This shall be presented to the Santa Ana PWA, PSD for review and
comment during Pre -Community Workshop #1.
D. Discuss proposed agenda for the 90-minute Community Workshop #1.
- First 45 Minutes: Open House Format— Visitors walk the room and
engage with the els+swa Team, City of Santa Ana representatives,
and other stakeholders identified by the City of Santa Ana.
Middle 15 Minutes: Brief Presentation by the City of Santa Ana
and els+swa.
Final 30 Minutes: Resume Open House Gallery Walk.
E. Draft Display Boards for the Gallery Walk are presented to the Santa
Ana PWA, PSD for review and comment.

Final 30 Minutes: Resume Open House Gallery Walk
A. Sign -in Table located near the entry to the room next to first board
(Station A); community members sign -in and provide their email and/or
mailing address, so they can receive future notices about the project.
B. Santa Ana PWA, PSD Table also located near the entry and staffed
by members of the Santa Ana PWA, PSD. This will be an opportunity
for the Santa Ana PWA, PSD to share with community members how
they can engage the design process moving forward and how they can
assist with any effort in support of the project, as well as hear concerns
about the project.
C. Program and Issues Boards are prominently displayed in a room large
enough to accommodate size of anticipated audience. Each board
location represents an "information station."
D. Program and Issues Boards are composed of 1 to 4 panels, each
panel is T wide x T tall and are freestanding. Each display is an
impressive collection of graphics, images and bullets designed to
ignite interest and excitement. Each information station represents a
different programming opportunity or design/project issue — all of which
typically initiates a robust event of questions, notetaking, information
gathering and sometimes "demands" and "absolutes" — and all
comments are welcomed and encouraged. Based on what we currently
know about the goals and aspirations for the Memorial Park East
End Master Plan + Reimagined Aquatic Center project, the Gallery
Stations could include the following programming and/or design issues:
Station 1 Welcome and Sign -In Station — General information
about the "Information Gallery"

These are some of the issues that could be unveiled at the Gallery Walk. It
is important to note that each station will be attended by an els+swa Team
Member, except for Station A — Welcome and Sign -In Station, which we
suggest is attended by two or three City of Santa Ana representatives.
Near the mid -point of the Gallery Walk, there will be a brief presentation,
kicked off by a Santa Ana PWA, PSD representative who will provide a
few introductory remarks, followed by Clarence Mamuyac who will present
relevant experience as well as an overview of the public engagement and

OUR APPROACH TO COLLABORATION WITHIN A
CMAR DELIVERY PROCESS
ELS has a comprehensive approach to the delivery of clear and complete
design and construction documents, using BIM on all our projects. We
understand the importance of working closely during design with the owner's
construction manager (CM) in a CM at Risk (CMAR) project delivery process,
providing design documentation at each phase for review of impacts to
cost, schedule and construction means and methods. We establish clear
means of communication to facilitate the collaborative process. Tools such
as Building Information Modeling (BIM-Revit) further assist us and the entire
project team in quality control and communication as it allows us to view
conflicts and resolve them quickly in the early stages of design, and through
the construction drawings using clash detection software. We share BIM
models with the construction manager for cost estimating and coordination
purposes and have provided final completed as -built models for aquatic
center facilities' record purposes.
BIM software from Autodesk's Revit is a fully integrated component of our
overall QAIQC efforts. BIM allows us to quickly visualize and coordinate
the multiple disciplines required to develop a building design. Our team is
immediately alerted to design conflicts through Revit's 3D capability, which
allows us to react quickly to issues as they arise. BIM also allows us, with
minimal effort, to develop alternate schemes that range in cost to address
project unknowns.
Complementing our BIM capacities, ELS helps clients and the CM visualize
design options through the in-house creation of high -quality, photo -realistic
architectural renderings. Whether using Revit's cloud -rendering capabilities,
or alternative programs such as 3D Studio Max, V-Ray, and Lumion, we
make use of architectural rendering and animation as an invaluable part
of the design process as well as a presentation tool. Post -production and
presentation formatting are typically produced using Photoshop, Illustrator,
and InDesign.
ELS uses Insight 360, a plug-in for Revit, for real-time energy and daylighting
performance analysis of conceptual design alternatives. ELS also uses
traditional physical models in presentation and the design process. To aid
in this effort, we are equipped with laser cutting and 3D printing capabilities.
Additional information about our experience with CMAR can be found under
Tab 1c.
I'm really grateful and enthusiastic about the progress we've made towards our new
community pool. I'm confident that ELS is the best qualified and most experienced firm to
lead this extraordinary project right in the heart of our community. It's going to be amazing!"

*� that has the highest design skills with the vision of the users in mind throughout the entire process.
Equally important has been the project economics and construction costs that are required to get
- ` - the owner (us as the City) to the finish line with a project design that fits the budget......ELS quickly
earned the trust of city policy makers, staff, and the public with their outstanding communication and
- { f ' accountability throughout each part of the comprehensive process."

The City is currently collaborating and working with SWA on a critical catalytic project
for our Downtown. They have been extremely responsive to our feedback and have always
returned with innovative and "game -changing" solutions in a timely fashion.
We have found their quality of work to be beyond exceptional. They brought a sense of
personalized uniqueness to our project, reflective our community and situation. We couldn't
have envisioned a better partner and are looking forward to continuing our working relationship
as other opportunities arise in the City of Fremont.

Legends Aquatic Center gives us more flexibility. It has helped our student -athletes in a
number of ways. We have more ability to have different practice schedules, and more ability to
adjust for time conflicts. We also get more space. Our guys are well taken care of in that pool."

2a. Scope of Services Memorial Park's East End— Potential New or Revived PART I: CONCEPT PLANNING
Park Elements Task 1: Preliminary Concept Planning
els+swa have reviewed Appendix, ATTACHMENT 1, Scope of Work,
which is part of RFP Number 23-061. We have given considerable
thought to the scope of work described in ATTACHMENT 1, and we look
forward to delivering on the spirit and intent of the document, with some
modifications that have been proposed under Tab le — Understanding of
Need, Tab 2b — Schedule and our sealed fee proposal. Without excep-
tion, please note that we will manage a process and deliver design product
that is responsive to the following main Scope of Work categories outlined
in previously referenced, ATTACHMENT 1:
Project scope of work will be composed of two phases:
els+swa look forward to honoring the park through a meaningful design
element that reinforces the words of former Governor Earl Warren and re-
minds us of the ultimate sacrifice made by others for our democracy. Be-
ing a part of strengthening the park as a "living memorial" is a big respon-
sibility, one that we take seriously in our collaborative process with you.
Active Recreation
• Splash Park area (approximately 1,000 so
Sports courts (basketball, volleyball, hand ball, pickle ball)
• Fitness and Workout Areas
• Fitness Circuit Stations about the park
• Part I, Site Master Plan, required a master plan for the east end of the
park. Passive Recreation
Part II Contract Documents, required for the Aquatics Center compo- • Picnic Areas
• nent. Documents will be delivered and based upon standards of the • Open Space
American Institute of Architect. • Walkways
• Community Gardening
els+swa will consider existing components of the park, and integrate input • Permanent Checkers and Chase Gaming Tables
collected during the community engagement process that we have outlined General Park Improvements
under our "Understanding of Need".
els+swa also understands the following program elements are to be included:
The New Memorial Park Aquatics Center
Building — Public Spaces
• Reception Lobby Area
Multipurpose Room for Community Meetings, Birthday Parties and
Lifeguard Classes
• Locker Rooms and Changing Areas for all users — men, women,
families and non -binary users
Building — Staff/City Spaces
• Aquatics Director/Manager's Office
• Lifeguard Room — perhaps with shower/restroom combination and
lockers
• Staff Office
• Breakroom
• Pool Equipment Space
• Storage
Pool Area
• Pool: 50-meter x 25-yard pool (with or without a bulkhead? —
Depth to be 7'-0')
• Pool decking and drainage.
• Deck showers to complement indoor showers.
• Area for Spectators — Bleachers and Lawn Seating?
• Pool and Deck Equipment — Lane Lines and Reels, Flags, Life-
guard Chairs, Pool Covers
Band shell and lawn area

• Water Wise Landscaping and automated irrigation
els+swa will consider circulation, safety, security, visibility, emergency
action procedures, lighting and apply best practice of CPTED — Crime
Prevention Through Environmental Design — essentially making all park
areas easily monitored and seen; the key concept here is to make sure
the design allows for eyes on the park. Additionally, els+swa will con-
sider maintenance, service, and delivery of goods to the park, not only for
day-to-day functions, but also for large events like Movies in the Park, USA
Swim Meets, Memorial Day and Classic Car Club shows, to name a few.
Schedule
els+swa understands that this project is on an accelerated timeline. we
are prepared to assist the city with managing an accelerated timeline with
respect to federal deadlines and processes that are linked the project
funding by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).
Such that the Contract Documents for Phase I (Aquatics Facility) must be
completed and ready for Public Bid Advertisement by April 2024. Please
see our proposed schedule and how it aligns with this requirement.
Per our response to "Understanding the Need," our proposed schedule
and our fee proposal package, we will be delivering service based on the
following:
Task 2: Final Concept Plan
PART II: CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
A. PROJECT COORDINATION. els+swa will manage, coordinate, pro-
duce documents for the work outlined above and pursuant the industry
standards and as recognized by the American Institute of Architects.
B. RECORDS RESEARCH. els+swa and their consultants will research
information pursuant the industry standards and as recognized by the
American Institute of Architects.
C. SURVEY (if necessary). els+swa will assist the city in generating the
limits of survey information needed to complete this assignment. We
understand that all survey and base mapping of the project site shall
be prepared in US Customary English units by a California licensed
Land Surveyor in accordance with the City guidelines and in Microsta-
tion V8i Computer Aided design and Drafting (CADD) format. The hor-
izontal datum shall be NAD 83 and the vertical datum shall be NAVD
88.
D. PERMIT(s). els+swa will provide documentation necessary to secure
construction permits required for this project. At this time, we under-
stand this will include a Building Permit from the City of Santa Ana and
a permit from the County of Orange, Department of Health for Swim-
ming Pool Construction. els+swa will prepare all technical documents,
and we suggest working with the CMAR, the city's project manager and
els+swa to determine the best route for the actual application of per-
mits. CEQA and NEPA application will be handled as outlined in Rin-
con's proposal.
PHASING: els+swa looks forward to collaboratively preparing a phas-
ing plan that will lead to the full development of the approved Master
Plan and prepare the contract document (PS&E) package. We under-
stand, that at minimum, Phase I shall include the new and reimagined
Memorial Park Aquatics Center and associated site work and parking,
identifying the accessible Path of Travel that is compliant with the
California Building Code. Further, we will assist the city with securing a
Construction Contract for Phase I by December 2024.
F. PROJECT DELIVERY: els+swa understands that the City of Santa Ana
is considering, but is not committed to, utilizing a Construction Manager
at Risk (CMAR) delivery method. And that if the city chooses to move
forward with a CMAR delivery method, the CMAR will be retained by
City to be part of the project team immediately following completion of
Task 1 (30% documents). Further, els+swa understands that the CMAR
will provide review and comment on our documents and that els+swa
will incorporate this input by the CMAR during Tasks 2 and 3 (60%,
90%, 100% documents). els+swa has significant experience with the
CMAR or similar delivery process exceeding $500MM in construction
value. We are comfortable and ready to produce within a CMAR deliv-
ery framework.
G. PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND ESTIMATES (PS&E): Tasks 1-3
els+swa intend to deliver on the following as described in our "Under-
standing of Need," our schedule and our fee proposal.
PART
30% PS&E (Preliminary Design/Concept Planning)
PART II
60% (Design Development),
90% & 100% PS&E (Contract Documents)
OPTIONAL SERVICE: Construction Support Phase
GENERAL REQUIREMENT"
els+swa would like to discuss some of the general requirements listed
under this heading, which seem to reference a construction contract, as
opposed to a professional design services agreement. Specifically on
issues of "inspections of work' and "fee retention". We have never come
across such issues on any of our contracts with municipalities throughout
California. If we are selected as your architect, we would appreciate an
opportunity to discuss these requirements further and in advance of exe-
cuting our agreement for professional design services.

Four months after it opened in a troubled neighborhood that outsiders avoid, the
East Oakland Sports Community Center still looks great: streamlined and shiny, affirmative
and bright ... What has come to pass is a triumph. Who knows? Some young users are bound
to stare in delighted wonder at their new home away from home. Some might even dream of
becoming architects themselves."

REVISED Proposal for Professional Design Fees
Architectural Design Services for Park Master Plan & New Aquatics Facility at
Memorial Park
RFP No.: 23-061
Dear Ms. Furjanic,
ELS Architecture and Urban Design, as the prime consultant for the association of els+swa, is
pleased to submit our proposed revised fees to provide professional services for Architectural
Design Services for the Park Master Plan & New Aquatics Facility at Memorial Park. This
proposal includes our assumptions; our fees broken down by phases, our description of
reimbursable expenses; our list of potential additional services; our list of exclusions/provisions;
and requests made during our conversation with you and Mr. Mike Ortiz last Friday morning.
ASSUMPTIONS
We understand to date that the City of Santa Ana has identified, per your email last Friday, a
$12M overall construction budget for the initial phase of the master plan implementation, the
aquatic center.
In determining a revised fee for PART 1, Concept Planning, we have based our fees upon
the Master Plan Concept that was presented during our interview and attached herewith at
Exhibit A. It is our understanding that the city is excited by the vision that we presented, and
in general, the city looks forward to advancing this concept as the final Master Plan, with the
following considerations:
Potential options for a two -pool facility, thus allowing for an initial construction phase to
include one of two pools, with a smaller building. In a future phase, a second pool could
be added, as well as the expansion of the building to accommodate the extra building
space required by the second pool. This is an important option to consider meeting the
$12MM construction budget, while maintaining the vision of the els/swa master plan
vision presented during our interview.
As I shared, a phased, two -pool master plan could also provide for a richer and more
diverse community aquatics center, offering a broader range of aquatics participation
over a single 50m pool, which exists today. I'm attaching plans of our aquatic centers for
the City of Piedmont and the City of Mountain View to give you and your colleagues a
sense of what a two -pool center offers.
2. We will also carry the original single 50m pool concept, as presented during our interview.
We will provide conceptual cost estimate of both the single 50m pool concept, and a first

phase of the two -pool center concept — this will give you and the city a clear sense of
construction costs for both ideas, which we understand as critical information necessary
for you to provide us with a final direction on how to move forward on PART II.
3. We understand that a splash pad component is desirable, too, and we will maintain the
splash pad in the single 50m pool concept master plan as presented during our interview.
Additionally, we will include a splash pad in the Two -Pool Master Plan Concept. For the
two -pool concept, the splash pad will also remain as part of the programming, and
consideration will be given to possibly including the splash pad within the PART II scope,
all depending upon budget and discussion with the city.
4. As directed, we will eliminate the CEQA effort and assistance from our scope, as we
understand the city will execute that effort internally.
5. We understand the Community Engagement scope will be brief and include our
participation in a single event at the "Last Swim at Memorial Pool", an event that will
precede the decommissioning of the pool. ELS+SWA will be in attendance with a
combination of graphic displays, surveys, and other materials to aid in collecting and
soliciting community feedback on the future Memorial Park Aquatic Center.
For PART II — Contract Documents for the Aquatic Center, we have developed a rough order
of magnitude (ROM) construction cost to assist us in determining professional fees.
Generally, comprehensive architecture and engineering service fees for a new aquatic center
range within 11 % to 13% of the construction costs. Based upon our Friday conversation, we
are basing our professional design fees on a $12MM Construction Budget. Should the
budget be increased with a commensurate increase in scope and program, our fees will also
need to be adjusted. Our fees include the following:
Pool Concept Master Plan Options —
o Option 1 - Single 50m Pool Concept: This concept was presented during our
interview and aligns with the original RFP direction. However, it may be
difficult to achieve a 50M pool, plus required support building within a $12MM
construction budget.
o Option 2 - Two Pool Concept: Two pools will replace the single 50m pool
shown in our interview master plan concept with a new 25-meter Pool x 25-
yard pool and an approximately new 3,500sf fun -water pool, and standard pool
equipment for each. However, only one of these pools and a commensurately
sized building shall be included in Part 11, Contract Documents. We believe a
smaller building and smaller pool will give us an opportunity to deliver a Phase I
construction plan within the $12MM construction budget.
In addition, the following scope is included in our fees:
• demolition of existing Memorial Pool Facility;
• site preparation for new aquatic center (area assumed to be less than an acre) — limits
defined by a line completely surrounding the proposed aquatic center (building and

pool), 5 feet beyond the pool fence enclosure and building — parking area is excluded
from PART II;
• new pool building of approximately 7,000 sf. - the building will include the essential
programming components (locker rooms, restrooms, showers, administration/lifeguard
area and weather-exposed/visually screened pool equipment) for size(s) of pool(s)
described above. Still to be determined, are the inclusion of a community
meeting/party room space, and restrooms for access via the park;
• new concrete pool decking;
• new landscaping within the aquatic center boundary described above;
• still to be determined is the extent of how much of the trellis feature from the interview
concept master plan can be built in the first phase of $12MM; and
• escalation at 6% per annum to the mid -point of construction — January 2025.
(The $12MM does not include expenses known in the industry as "Soft Costs")
Of course, our cost estimate efforts thus far are very preliminary, and are subject to change as
more information becomes available. Meanwhile, scoping the construction value for other
park improvements, beyond the new Memorial Aquatics Center, is difficult until more
information is gathered during the PART I effort.
Therefore, our professional design fees for the PART II effort are based upon the construction
value of $12MM for the new aquatics center.
DESIGN SCHEDULE
Per the schedule we have included in our original response to the Request of Proposals and
as modified herein. Specifically, the schedule has been shortened by the general acceptance
of the Concept Master Plan and Aquatic Center Design that was presented during our
interview, as well as an abbreviated Community Engagement Process that will be addressed
in a single event on August 12, 2023 — The Final Swim at Memorial Pool. A revised schedule
will be provided by Monday, July 24, 2023 acknowledging these changes.

this nondiscrimination clause.
(ii) The Consultant will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees
placed by or on behalf of the Consultant, state that all qualified applicants will receive
consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation,
gender identity, or national origin.
(iii) The Consultant will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate
against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has
inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another
employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has
access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such
employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or
applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such
disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation,

by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain
compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
(vii) In the event of the Consultant's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination
clauses of this Agreement or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this Agreement may
be canceled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the Consultant may be declared
ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction contracts in
accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such
other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order 11246 of
September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise
provided by law.
(viii) The Consultant will include the portion of the sentence immediately
preceding paragraph (i) and the provisions of paragraphs (i) through (vii) in every subcontract or
purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued
pursuant to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such provisions
will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The Consultant will take such action with
respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of
enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event the Consultant becomes involved in, or is threatened with,
litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency,
the Consultant may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of
the United States.
The City further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to
its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work:
Provided, That if the City so participating is a State or local government, the above equal
opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality or subdivision of such
government which does not participate in work on or under the Agreement.
The City agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering agency and the
Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of the Consultant and subcontractors with the equal
opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it
will furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such information as they may
require for the supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering
agency in the discharge of the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance.
The City further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification
subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who
has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction
contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for
violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors
by the administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the
Executive Order. In addition, the City agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these
undertakings, the administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: cancel,
terminate, or suspend in whole or in part the grant (contract, loan, insurance, guarantee) for this
project; refrain from extending any further assistance to the applicant under the program with
respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assurance of future compliance
has been received from such applicant; and refer the case to the Department of Justice for
appropriate legal proceedings.
