RE: City of Santa Ana Parking Structure RFQ
Gentlemen:
We appreciate the opportunity to introduce our Design/Build Team for the City of Santa Ana
parking structure. The individual team members have worked together in various combinations
over the years, and have a wealth of parking structure experience both individually and
collectively. These pre-existing working relationships will guarantee the City a positive, well
coordinated experience with the Gordon & Williams Design/Build Team.' Gordon and Williams
will lead the team as the main point of contact, with Mark Williams as -the individual authorized
to contractually bind our team. His contact information is as follows. -

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Section 1: Design / Build Overview
Section 2: Project Team
Section 3: Relevant Experience
Section 4: Affirmative Action Compliance
Section 5: Project Approach
DESIGNIBUILD OVERVIEW
The Gordon & Williams Design/Build Team consists of Gordon & Williams in the dual
roles of Design/Builder and Construction Manager and Choate Parking Consultants as
Parking Architect & Consultant and overall Design Team leader.
This team was carefully chosen for two main reasons. The first is the impressive list of
experience the team member firms have on significant parking structures, mostly here in
the Los Angeles basin, experience which will allow the City of Santa Ana to capitalize on
lessons learned. The second reason for inclusion on the team is the familiarity the firms
and personnel have with each other from past experience on multiple projects.
The following pages within this Section give an overview of each individual firm, the
main duties and responsibilities each will have on the City of Santa Ana Parking
Structure within the team structure, and three (3) references for each of the member
firms. Each of the firms is described on a separate page with all of the described
information. The final page of this Section is a preliminary Organization Chart of our
Design/Build Team, which gives a visual reference for understanding how our team
interacts and what the reporting relationships are as we now see them.
The proposal that follows has been constructed with attention to answering specific
points and issues that were made clear and relevant in your RFQ. It is important to the
Gordon & Williams Team to make it apparent to the City of Santa Ana that we meet and
exceed the criteria for selection. Please note the following specific and significant items:
• Our Team members have significant and relevant experience on both large and
small parking structures for public entities.
• Our Team, individually and collectively, has all the necessary resources to
undertake and execute this project immediately, and do so exceeding the City's
expectations for communication, process and performance.
• We have a demonstrated success record for delivering exceptional projects in
a timely and cost effective manner.
• Our Team has a clear organizational structure, as represented on our Org
Charts, and has worked effectively together in the past. We have shown the
ability and willingness to communicate effectively with our clients and those
with whom they deal and serve.
• We enjoy an industry wide reputation for the exceptional quality of our work
product and for the process through which we arrive at the result.
• Our proactive approach to project management, including cost and schedule
control, is undisputed.
• Our Team member firms are located close to one another, are currently working
together on other projects, and have ease in moving back and forth between
offices.
• We are proud of our reputation for delivering projects ahead of schedule, even
in circumstances where it seemed almost impossible. Our clients will attest to it.
• There is no Team that can demonstrate more design creativity in finding cost
effective solutions, nor a construction group more willing to relentlessly explore
options for implementing value added options. When you discuss with us
issues such as square footage per stall, cost per stall, etc. it will be very apparent
how creative, flexible, practical, and efficient our Design/Build Team is.
GORDON & WILLIAMS
Gordon & Williams will have two roles on the City of Santa Ana Parking Structure. We will be
the Master Design/Builder, with overall responsibility for the project. We will hold the contract
with the owner, and all design personnel, consultants, subcontractors, etc. will report up the
chain of command to Gordon & Williams. Gordon & Williams will be responsible for delivery
of the project and will assure that all of the project requirements and conditions are met. Second,
Gordon & Williams will act as Construction Manager for the project. All of the construction
staff, whether stationed at the field office or offsite, as well as all of the trade subcontractors will
report to Gordon & Williams construction Project Manager and Field Superintendent, who will,
in turn report to Mark Williams as Design/Builder Managing Principal.
We have carefully reviewed the RFQ and understand all of the requirements of the "Proposer"
(Design/Builder) and of the Construction Manager, and we are ready to undertake and
successfully execute all of those responsibilities and functions. We possess all of the requisite
experience and resources to accomplish this task.

CHOATE PARKING CONSULTANTS
CPC main task is to direct the design team to a successful project conclusion. The efforts will
include acting as the liaison with F&W, BP Associates and OMB on issues related to public agencies
planning, related code approvals and permitting for construction documentation. CPC responsibility
will be to monitor the overall project progress and relay information on a timely basis with Gordon
& Williams.
As the parking consultant and the designer of record for the parking facility, CPC will direct
different design disciplines to meet user circulation and access goals while maintaining efficient and
cost effective construction design for the project. CPC will be drawing on the consultant member's
years of experience and training in this building type and manage that effort. Program assimilation,
review, validation, Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation and
Construction Administration are included in the design effort.

Relevant Experience
PARKING STRUCTURE # 6, LA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, LA, CA
Our scope of work included landscape, hardscape, and irrigation. The expanded pedestrian walkways
inside the edge of the structure and bollards used to give additional security light and define this path
were included with the landscape to define vehicular/pedestrian boundaries. As xeriscape regulation has
been enacted in the City of Los Angeles, we evaluated the existing plant materials around the airport and
at the new tower as we selected our plant palette. An effort was made to emphasize more drought
tolerant varieties. The fence located next to the landscape hedge was a theme item, carried from
previous projects to control pedestrian traffic by directing it to crosswalks. An added plus was the shade
tolerant planting provided in the ramp itself. This is a very low maintenance plan. The entire project
was done on AutoCAD per project requirements, with a date of completion in 1997 and a total project
cost of 10 million dollars.
PARKING STRUCTURE # II, CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, LA, CA:
Lynn Capouya, Inc. was the landscape architect for this 1,200 space post -tensioned concrete parking
structure serving the Cal State University at Los Angeles. The sitting and design enhances the character
of the area, visually blending the parking structure mass with that of the adjacent facilities. Plantings
indicated are compatible with the climate of Los Angeles and adjacent areas. Strong consideration was
given to the overall aesthetic and maintenance characteristics of the landscape solution, as well as to the,
incorporation of `like' planting materials on all areas disturbed by the project. All disturbed or
manufactured slopes were re -vegetated. with plant materials to match existing. The design shall
eliminate, as is practical, the steeply sloped banks from the streets to the structure in order to reduce
maintenance concerns. The structure was built to provide parking for the new Luxman Center for the
Arts which is adjacent to the parking facility. Date of completion was in May 1997 with a total cost of
$7,613,000.00.
BALDWIN PARK TRANSPORTATION CENTER, BALDWIN PARK, CA:
Lynn Capouya, Inc., was responsible for the landscape component of PS&E. The firm needed to
identify site issues and bring visual appeal to this structure. The City of Baldwin Park wanted to
establish their own look while providing rider services for the public. A cactus garden was designed as
a central focus for the parking lot and station. This transit station is part of Metro Link and Ms.
Capouya is MTA certified as a DBE,
LA SIERRA COMMUTER RAIL STATION, RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CA:
The La Sierra station is one of the Metrolink stops on the Riverside -Fullerton -Los Angeles line. The
line also carries heavy Santa Fe Railway traffic. The station consists of two 680' long passenger
platforms with passenger shelters. The facility includes a parking lot for 350 vehicles, a bus and a `kiss
and ride' drop-off area. Lynn Capouya, Inc. designed landscape and irrigation for this site area along
with the street median, platform planters, drop-off area, and perimeter. All plans include water
conserving plant materials, irrigated in a manner consistent with the State of California water
conservation ordinance and adapted for the County of Riverside.
COMPTON TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, COMPTON, CA:
This new multi -modal transportation station required landscape and irrigation plans for structure and
parking lot areas. All plans were per City of Compton Standards. This project was made similar to the
Blue Line transportation centers through out the County of Los Angeles, and LCI was sub -consultant to
the Edward C. Barker and Associates team.
