Fairmont Parkway La Porte, Texas 77571 Re: Sylvan Beach Community Center Conceptual Design Dear Mr. Bottoms: We are pleased to make this proposal for landscape architectural design associated with the Sylvan Beach Park, particularly, a design for a new community center. For the purposes of this proposal, you will be referred to as the Client and Clark Condon Associates, Inc. as the Landscape Architect. SCOPE OF WORK - Our firm along with an architecture sub-consultant will prepare site planning options that will accommodate a new community center. The plans will keep in mind the previous Master Plan prepared for Harris County Precinct Two. It is our intent to maintain the overall concepts and ideas generated in the Master Plan, but not to be limited by the specific site plan. In addition to the site planning exercise, we will explore several optional locations for a new community center along with site plans that relate to the various locations. The steps to accomplish this work are outlined below: PART I 1. Review any previously prepared studies for the site, in addition to proposed plans for downtown revitalization project, improvements to San Jacinto Street and how those projects may relate to Sylvan Beach. 2. Prepare a site analysis of the site (including recently purchased lands) that will outline opportunities and constraints of the site and the immediate surrounding areas. The plan will also illustrate proposed beach enhancement project. 3. At this point the consultant team will prepare a series of plans that illustrate options for a community center location and general footprint. The plans will be schematic in nature and will indicate general improvements, such as drives, parking, and aspects from park master plan as appropriate. We expect 5 or 6 options at this level of development. 4. Following review of initial site plans with the client, the consultant team will refine the ideas and develop 2 to 3 options with more detail and suitable for 10.(;01 S~{dk: Ljf:~r: ~-:<:;"~<Jd ~~<)I.)'3;t<)n. l(:~~\.T;';' )7<:~~?:::, ft:... 7.:~:'<::~'l'~ '!.'~.14 F'AX .~f'~.:~.e'}--1 ()3~~H '.,",,'\<,/\^! .ct Df}-:cn n dn (t. .:~<..1~"i')
