III. ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
The following provisions shall be included as additional conditions to this agreement:
A. Responsibility for Code Compliance
The CONSULTANT shall comply with or respond in design to all known applicable
laws, codes and regulations currently in effect as of the date of this Agreement. However,
CITY recognizes that interpretations by governmental officials("Code Authority") are
often subject to change even after issuance of a building permit. If after award of the
building permit modifications to the Drawings and Specifications are required because of
an interpretation by the Code Authority which had not been previously given, or which if
given, was different than a prior interpretation of the Code Authority, CONSULTANT
shall make the required modifications,but the cost of such modifications shall be
considered an Additional Service. Provided nothing contained herein shall relieve the
CONSULTANT of its obligations to modify at its expense Plans and Specifications
where the CONSULTANT has failed to prepare such in compliance with the applicable
Government Requirements in force as of the date of this Agreement.
B. Fast Track
In order to minimize construction problems and change orders,the CONSULTANT's
standard practice requires the completion of detailed working drawings prior to bidding
and entering into firm construction contracts. However, CITY may choose to accelerate
the completion of the work so that it is completed in a shorter time period than would
normally be required. CITY understands that if construction or furnishings contracts are
let prior to the completion of final working drawings and specifications, there will be
increases in costs and change orders caused by the inability to coordinate Construction
Documents,and the inability to make various decisions until after early bids are received
and some construction undertaken. The CONSULTANT has no responsibility for these
conditions.
- 3 -
C. Force Majeure
In the event the CONSULTANT is hindered, delayed or prevented from performing its
obligations under this Agreement as a result of any fire, flood, landslide,tornado, other
act of God,malicious mischief, theft, strike, lockout, other labor problems, shortages of
material or labor, failure of any governmental agency or CITY to furnish information or
to approve or to disapprove the CONSULTANT's work or any other cause beyond the
reasonable control of the CONSULTANT's time for completion of the CONSULTANT's
work shall be extended by the period of resulting delay.
D. Hazardous Materials
CITY represents to the CONSULTANT that to the best of CITY's knowledge no
hazardous or toxic substances within the meaning of any applicable statute or regulation
are presently stored, or otherwise located,at the Hemmens Cultural Center PROJECT site
or adjacent thereto. However,the existence of asbestos has been identified and present
within the City Hall and Library PROJECT sites. Further,within the definition of such
Statutes or Regulations, no part of the PROJECT site or adjacent real estate, including the
ground water located thereon, is presently contaminated.
E. Disclaimer of Agency Relationship
This Agreement shall not be construed so as to create a partnership,joint venture,
employment, or other agency relationship between the parties hereto, except to the extent
specifically provided for herein.

any rights arising hereunder shall be in the Circuit Court of Kane County, Illinois.

Exhibit A
"City Hall / Library Space Programming and Interior Design" and
Hemmens Cultural Center (HCC) North Lobby Addition
This represents a thorough description of our scope of work and services with all related fees for the City
Hall, Library, and Hemmens Cultural Center work. We've also attached a proposed project schedule and
a "draft" City of Elgin /WA Agreement.
A. CITY HALL/ LIBRARY SCOPE OF WORK & SERVICES
The project consists of three phases, beginning with the Programming and Planning phase
described below:
WA/CID PROJECT APPROACH
Initial Project Team Meeting
Project Organization
Define Project Team roles, responsibilities, and the decision making process for WA, Consultants,
and Elgin Team Members. Elgin Project Team Members will include David L. Lawry as Project
Manager and Mark T. Biernacki, Gail A. Cohen, Sean R. Stegall, and Butch Wilhelmi as Project
Team Members.
Project Implementation
The team will determine overall project goals (strategic, service, operational, image, budget and
schedule). These will become the overall project goals we use to develop and analyze options
throughout the project.
The review and approval process will be related to each component of work as the project
develops, evolving from original goals and decisions to insure City input and acceptance from the
Project Team and end users.

Phase 1: Programming and Planning
1. Assess requirements of various user groups in City Hall, the Hemmens Cultural Center
Auditorium and Parks and Recreation, including City departments, Kane County Court
users and public users of the building.
Organizational & Space Needs Study
WA will develop an Organizational and Space Needs Study for all Elgin City
Departments, the Kane County Court, the Parks and Recreation Department, the Elgin
Symphony Orchestra Offices, Hemmens North Lobby Addition, and Exhibition
Requirements for the Hemmens Cultural Center. These requirements will be determined
exclusive of existing building(s) considerations to determine the optimum work
environment and relationships.
Before starting Departmental programming, the Project Team will set preliminary office/
workstation guidelines for use in the development of the Space Needs Study.
WA will provide Departmental Space Needs Forms to all groups prior to interviews. We
will then have an interview with a Departmental Representative and a walk-thru of the
Department to determine Preliminary Space Needs (staff, support, filing, storage,
technology, conferencing / meeting, security, and long term flexibility and Growth 2020),
as well as relationships to other Departments and Public Access. Determination of
Hemmens North Lobby Addition, Offices, and Exhibition Space will follow a similar
process.
WA will consolidate each Department's requirements and return the Organizational
Space Needs Study to the individual Department for review, revisions, and approval.
WA will review all collected data with the Project Team before consolidation into a final
Organizational and Space Needs Study.
WA/CID will work to analyze the needs of the various groups. Programming will be
accomplished through the use of site inspections, questionnaires and personal
interviews. Larry Kmiecik will lead the programming portion, utilizing our standard
"Building Space Program" format.
• Departmental staffing, currently and in the future
• Departmental organization
• Adjacencies of departments and inter-departmental work flow
• Location of any shared equipment
• Type and condition of existing furniture
• Storage requirements
• Use of existing equipment to fit into the appropriate locations based on quantity, size
and function
• Condition of existing equipment
• "As built" configuration of existing library
2. Recommend blocking and stacking of each use within the two buildings, including
representation of relationships between various uses;potential expansion among user
groups over time (2020 should be the end date);provisions for appropriate access (or
Mr. Dave Lawry/City of Elgin / City Hall - Library- HCC Programming & Interior Design /26 June 2002 /
Page 4
restriction of access) between user groups; and recommendations for new or additional
uses of space. This will lead to a series of conceptual ideas.
Master Plan
WA will develop a variety of concepts which will outline departmental and functional
location options in the three buildings (City Hall, Gail Borden Library, and Hemmens
Cultural Center Auditorium). These concepts would be reviewed for refinement and input
of a final building plan by the Project Team.
Blocking and Stacking Diagrams
Based on an approved concept, WA will develop color coded blocking and stacking
diagram options for each building. This process will investigate each buildings optional
renovation possibilities for programmed areas, core and shell, , circulation, and systems.
These concepts will be reviewed for refinement and input of a final color coded blocking
and stacking diagram by the Project Team.
WA will be available to present this information to a meeting of all the end users for
additional input, and present the final Master Plan and Blocking and Stacking Diagrams
to the City Council.
Wfe will provide the initial solution, incorporating these methods based on buildings,
furniture and equipment that you currently own. Following that step, we trust you may
wish to explore a variety of additional creative design options.
Basic Study: Space Program within four walls at both facilities.
Options: Additions/ Remodeling to each facility
3. Analyze the "highest and best use"of the current library building. While the consultant is
analyzing the space and use of the library as a possible annex to City Hall, would this be
the best use? The consultant will prepare a report which investigates the best use of the
property given its proximity to Kimball Street, Illinois Route 31, the Fox River, the
downtown business district, and the civic cultural district. Priority should be given to the
growth needs of City Hall as developed in item #2 above.
Neil Steffens joins our consulting team to assist in this task. He previously prepared an
appraisal for the Library, and will be preparing a report on the highest and best use from
the City's perspective. We'll determine if possible adaptive re-uses such as offices, retail
/commercial, courts, civic, exhibit and others.
Hitchcock/JJR will review Library adaptive re-uses based on City of Elgin's Riverfront
Master Plan and Site considerations. The Project Team will review the options for the
Library's use and prioritize alternatives for City functions; Administrative, Court, Parks &
Recreation, Cultural, and others.
Based on this information, we will make a recommendation for the highest and best use
of the Library to the Project Team and the City Council.
Mr. Dave Lawry/City of Elgin /City Hall - Library - HCC Programming & Interior Design /26 June 2002 /
Page 5
4. Prepare Space Plan for the buildings, including design, layout and dimensions of all
spaces; design of specialized areas such as Courts and City Council Chambers;
recommendations for security and signage; and review of existing base building systems
as they affect the Space Plan.
WA shall prepare all dimensioned CADD architectural only floor plans and provide space
planning options. CID, following programming results, will begin preparing the Space
Plan and furniture needs. Work station needs will be developed to fit departmental
needs.
WA/CID will prepare preliminary space plans for review. Consideration will be given to
the "as-is" configuration of the existing space, as well as the best use of space with the
minimum amount of demolition. All specialized areas will be considered such as Courts,
Council Chambers, exhibit, etc.
Conceptual color schemes will be developed with input from the City. Presentation
boards will be presented to the City for review and approval. Final solutions will occur
during the Design Development Phase.
We shall examine existing drawings, reports, and utility records prepared by the City staff
and inspect the three primary facilities, City Hall, HCC, and the Library to review the
existing base systems and determine their current condition and provide
recommendations for their continued use as they affect the Space Plan.
As an additional service option, WA and our HVAC engineer shall prepare a study of
Existing Conditions and code requirements to bring the three buildings into code and
ADA compliance, determine costs of systems upgrade, and the feasibility of expansion
and/or alternative uses, and meet with City design team to review code concepts,
requirements, and options. We shall review ADA and life safety issues, review existing
exit requirements, and provide you with options and costs for improved spaces and code
compliance. Our Study will provide you with review data which will enable the City staff
to make key decisions regarding potential improvements, design alterations and
amenities; alternative cost estimates; and a project time schedule. We shall also prepare
an updated "value to rebuild / replacement cost estimate" for purposes in City insurance
appraisals and values.
5. Prepare a detailed analysis of the existing furniture systems currently in use. Develop a
master plan and furniture standard coordinated with the Space Planning work.
Furniture selections will be made based on an analysis of existing furnishings currently in
use. The analysis will include a cost comparison between refinishing existing versus
purchasing new.
Furniture Review
CID will walk through, review and comment on the functionality, design, usable life cycle
of general furniture systems presently being used. This will be a basic analysis, and not
individual review of each piece of furniture or equipment.
Office/Workstation Guidelines
CID will provide an inventory worksheet and educational session to utilize City staff in the
inventory gathering process.
Mr. Dave Lawry/City of Elgin /City Hall - Library- HCC Programming & Interior Design /26 June 2002 /
Page 6
WA will develop Office/Workstations guidelines based on functional requirements (task
function, meeting needs, storage, privacy, group or independent work) determined during
programming for review, revision and approval of the Project Team.
WA will work with Department Heads during programming to explain the guidelines and
their benefits and opportunities. Elgin Project Team and staff support is critical to the
success of the Guideline Process.
WA will review furniture budget goals, and recommend qualitative options for
consideration by the Project Team.
Based on our discussion, the City of Elgin Departments will develop detailed furniture and
equipment inventory with dimensions. This does not include furniture systems wall
components which are intended to be replaced.
Furnishing selections will include freestanding and systems furniture, seating, storage,
millwork, signage, fixtures, window treatments, artwork and other accent design features
such as banners or cut glass designs. These selections will be formulated into a
standards program for future expansion or acquisition. Again, presentation boards will be
available to the City for review and approval.
6. Perform an analysis of the buildings'HVAC systems and recommend improvements if
necessary.
HVAC Analysis
As a portion of our Basic Services, we will meet with Elgin facility engineering and
maintenance staff, walk thru, and perform an initial analysis of the buildings HVAC
systems. They will review both general condition and recommend general
improvements, as well as comment on flexibility to change at City Hall and flexibility to
change and usability at the Library, and a portion of Hemmens.
Some of this work will be accomplished in item number 4 above. We intend to use W-T
Engineering for this task.
Outline Specification as an Additional Service
Based on the Preliminary Space Plan, we will develop an outline description of the scope
of work for architectural, HVAC, life safety, electrical, plumbing and data/voice
distribution for each building.
7. Prepare a detailed project timeline and plan for phasing without hampering the City and
Court's effective use of its space during construction/renovation/relocation. The
detailed timeline should consider the major project milestones listed below.
Your initial outline is very achievable. We've expanded it a bit. WA/ CID will provide this
data in a detailed manner utilizing our team member, Tom Tristano, a Project Executive
from Williams Development, Ltd. Tom will also provide in-depth timelines, phasing plans,
cost estimates, value engineering, and quality control during Phases 2 and 3.
Planning and Design Schedule
Mr. Dave Lawry/City of Elgin / City Hall - Library - HCC Programming & Interior Design /26 June 2002 /
Page 7
The proposed Planning and Design Schedule is reasonable for the scope of work to be
accomplished. The greatest factor will be the review and approval process after each
component of work. The Project Team will need to determine the level of review and
approval required for each component of work and include that in the final schedule.
• Elgin Project Team Review and Approval
• Departmental Presentation
• Departmental Review and Approval
• Administrative and/or City Council Presentation
• Administrative and/or City Council Review and Approval
Construction Schedule
WA/WD will develop a detailed / phased Preliminary Design and Construction schedule
in Microsoft Project incorporating all considerations noted above. The Project Team will
discuss the operational and budgetary implications of phasing options to determine a final
Project Schedule.
8. Prepare budgets including all demolition, construction, major and/or special systems or
components of the project. Budgets should include new and reused furniture, fixtures
and equipment. Incorporate asbestos abatement information prepared by a City of Elgin
consultant into the budget.
At this point, CID will also make material selections including carpeting, tile, CVT, wall
covering and paint. Special consideration will be given to accent design elements. As
with the color schemes, presentation boards will be presented to the City for review and
approval.
Preliminary Concept Budget
WA/ CID/WD will develop a Project Budget in cooperation with the Owner and its
vendors.

The above listed fees are based upon what consulting services Williams Architects will be providing such
as theatre options, acoustical, interior design, furniture, landscaping structural, civil, mechanical and
electrical engineering, our involvement in any public zoning process, the quantity and type of presentation
renderings, computer models and so forth that may be required. It is understood that the City will be
retaining the services of a qualified construction manager that will become involved during the early
stages of Phase 2 services, and they shall provide all scheduling, cost estimating and constructability
reviews.
In addition to our services based on a lump sum fee, we shall also invoice the City for our reimbursable
costs at a 1.15 multiplier as we have done before. We also expect to have an Owner/Architect
agreement based upon the standard City of Elgin Agreement and similar to the current Owner/Architect
Agreement we have with the City for the Recreation Center.
Additional services and specialty consultants will be provided on an hourly basis with outside consultant
fees being marked up with a 1.15% multiplier.

TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FINANCIALLY STABLE CITY GOVERNMENTEFFICIENT SERVICES,
AND OVAL IT Y INFRASTRUCTURE
FROM: Olufemi Folarin, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT: City Hall/Library Space Efficiency Study and
Hemmens North Lobby Expansion Design
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information to consider
approving a contract with Williams Architects to provide
architectural services for the evaluation of space needs at City
Hall, the reuse of the Gail Borden Library building and expansion
of the Hemmens north lobby.
BACKGROUND
It was previously reported to the City Council on the background
of the subject project and the status of the selection process .
City Hall will be gaining additional space when the Engineering
Division vacates its current space and moves to the new Public
Works facility at 1900 Holmes Road. This move is expected to be
completed by June 2003 . The City has also entered into an
agreement with the Gail Borden Library to acquire their existing
building when it is vacated in favor of their new building north
of Kimball Street . It is expected that the library will vacate
their existing building by the end of 2003 .
Funding was also provided in the 2002 budget to provide design
and construction cost estimates to expand the Hemmens north
lobby. When the last City Hall remodeling efforts were completed
in 1997, there was no comprehensive evaluation of the building
and space needs . Given the aforementioned changes, the
opportunity presents itself to determine what the space needs are
for each staff member at City Hall . It is also desirable to
locate staff to be as efficient as possible and to provide the
best accessibility to the public for those departments with
frequent customer visits .

The existing library building is approximately 78, 000 square feet
on two levels . Sufficient space exists within the building to
consider such issues as relocation of the Court and City Council
chambers, office space for Court personnel, expansion of Hemmens
exhibition hall space, much needed City record storage and
possible City staff office space to name a few of the ideas. An
evaluation of this space is needed to demonstrate what is the
highest and best use.
The Hemmens Master Plan completed in 1999 identified among
issues, the need to expand the north lobby to accommodate first
floor restrooms, expanded ticketing operations, larger vestibule
and lobby waiting areas and possible administrative office space.
By the end of this year, The Centre will be completed and the
majority of the Parks staff will be relocated. The current Parks
and Recreation office then becomes larger than needed. The Elgin
Symphony Orchestra also has its offices at the Parks and
Recreation Grove Avenue location.
With the freed up space in City Hall, the space available at the
library building and with consideration of the Hemmens north
lobby expansion, it may become feasible to relocate the remaining
Parks and Recreation staff (12) and the ESO staff from their
current location and actively market the sale of their current
building.
Requests For Proposals (RFP' s) were prepared separately for the
City Hall/Library Space Study (CHLSS) , and for the Hemmens North
Lobby (HNL) . The recently adopted amended procurement ordinance
requires any professional service solicitation involving a public
building to be publically advertised. Both of the above RFP' s
were advertised in the Courier News. Ten proposals were received
for the CHLSS and eleven proposals were received for the HNL.
The selection team consisting of Dave Lawry, Gail Cohen, Mark
Biernacki and Sean Stegall reviewed the CHLSS proposals based on
selection criteria which included, among other criteria; the
firm' s experience, the project manager' s experience, the scope of
work and any creative ideas proposed. Selection was based upon
not only the initial Phase I scope (space programming, but also
Phase II design and Phase III construction.

The CHLSS selection team selected three top firms to be
interviewed before final selection. The three firms were FGM
Architects from Lake in the Hills, Williams Architects from
Wheaton, and Design Organization from Chicago.
The HNL selection team, consisting of Gail Cohen, Sean Stegall,
Dave Lawry, Blythe Rainey-Cuyler and Butch Wilheimi reviewed the
proposals based upon the same basic criteria listed above. The
HNL selection team' s clear choice was Cordigan Clark from Aurora.
Cordigan Clark previously completed the Hemmens Master Plan.
Inclusive of both the CHLSS and the HNL proposals, Design
Organization was the only firm that did not submit on both
projects. The decision was made to combine both projects into
one and add Cordigan Clark to the presentation schedule with FGM,
Willams Architects and Design Organization. Because Design
Organization did not initially submit on the HNL RFP, sufficient
time was provided so that they could review the HNL RFP.
Presentations were made by all four firms (FGM, Williams
Architects, Design Organization and Cordigan Clark) to a revised
selection team consisting of Dave Lawry, Gail Cohen, Mark
Biernacki, Sean Stegall and Butch Wilhemi . Design Organization
(DO) was selected as the top rated consultant based upon the
scope of work elements of their presentation. References
provided by DO were checked and it was revealed that DO had high
staff turnover and poor communication between the project manager
and the client . When asked if the client would hire DO again,
they answered "no" .
Williams Architects (WA) was the second rated firm. Their
references were checked and considered with the City' s own
positive experiences working with WA on both The Centre and the
Parks Master Plan. WA' s references were very positive and the
selection team completed its review with the selection of WA.
Fees for the top three potential firms were subsequently opened
and revealed that WA had submitted the lowest cost of the three
firms. Negotiations were held to fine tune the scope of services
and adjust the final cost . The scope of services for this
project can be found on Exhibit A on the attached agreement . The
final cost of the basic services is $106, 000 for the CHLSS and
$15, 000 for the HNL. The fee increased $7, 000 from the fees
submitted in order to include the credit union in the space study
which had been inadvertently left out of the RFP.

The final costs still remain lower than the fees submitted by the
other two firms . Additional services with associated costs are
noted in the scope of services attached with the subject
agreement . This list of services is not included with the costs
outlined for the basic services agreement, but may be considered
later in the Phase I process . Consideration of these items at a
later date will require an amendment approved by City Council .
