SUMMARY STATEMENT
In Fall - Winter 2015, City Staff conducted Envision Orchard Park Part 1 to begin the Master Plan process for
Orchard Park. Part 2 of Envision Orchard Park is proposed to be completed by a consultant. In November-
December 2015, the City issued a RFQ-RFP for the Orchard Park Master Plan and RCO Grant Assistance. Following
submittal reviews and interviews, the top ranked consultant team was SPVV Landscape Architects working with
Coffman Engineers.
SPVV Landscape Architects has been selected to complete the Orchard Park Master Plan process with the ultimate
goal of assisting with the City’s RCO Grant Application which is due by May 1, 2016.
We are requesting that Council approve the Professional Services Agreement for SPVV Landscape Architects to
complete the Orchard Park Master Plan and provide assistance to City Staff in applying for the RCO Grant, for a
professional services amount not to exceed $50,000.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve the Professional Services Agreement for SPVV to complete the Orchard Park Master Plan and

b) City shall pay Consultant all sums due under this Agreement for the work completed through
the date of termination in accordance with Consultant’s standard fee schedule as set forth in
Exhibit A. If the Agreement is terminated by City for reasons other than the default of
Consultant, the City shall also pay Consultant for preparation of the summary of work.
Article 5. Insurance and Indemnity
5.1 Insurance. Consultant shall secure and maintain in full force and effect during performance of all
work pursuant to this Agreement comprehensive general liability insurance providing coverage of
at least $1,000,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate for personal injury; $1,000,000 per
occurrence and aggregate for property damage; and professional liability insurance with a
combined single limit of $1,000,000. Such general liability insurance shall name the City as an
SPVV Landscape Architects Page 2 of 6 (Rev. 12/16/2015)
additional insured and each policy of insurance shall include a provision prohibiting cancellation
of said policy or lowering the limits of coverage except upon thirty (30) days written notice to the
City. Certificates of coverage shall be delivered to the City within fifteen (15) days of execution
of this Agreement.
5.2 Indemnification.
a) Indemnity. Consultant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City and its officers,
employees and agents (collectively, the "Indemnitees") against and in respect of all fines,
suits, proceedings, claims, demands or actions brought or asserted by third parties
(collectively, a “Claim”) of any nature or kind whatsoever, directly or indirectly, arising out
of or in any manner associated or connected with the performance or non-performance by
Consultant, its employees and subcontractors, of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and against any and all damages, costs, expenses and fees (including reasonable
legal expenses) incurred by or on behalf of any of the foregoing in the investigation or
defense of any Claim, provided, however, that Consultant’s liability under this paragraph
with respect to Claims arising from, or alleged to arise from, any negligent act, error or
omission of Consultant, or of any employee or subcontractor of Consultant, in the
performance of Professional Services (as defined below) shall be limited to the amount of any
damages (including costs, expenses and attorney fees) which an Indemnitee becomes legally
obligated to pay to a third person as the result of such negligent act, error, or omission. For
purposes of this paragraph, “Professional Services” means those services which Consultant is
engaged to perform under this Agreement as described in Exhibit A and includes the
preparation of land use plans, the preparation of studies and offering of opinions and
recommendations regarding land use plans and environmental, economic and other impacts
relating to land use plans, and the preparation and offering of expert testimony regarding land
use plans.
b) Procedures for Indemnification. The Indemnitee will notify Consultant in writing promptly
following receipt of notice of any Claim with respect to any matter as to which the
Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification, which notice will disclose all information with
respect to such Claim as the Indemnitee will then have. If Consultant acknowledges in
writing full liability or potential liability without admitting the same, Consultant will have the
right to contest and defend, by all appropriate legal or other proceedings, any such claim with
respect to which the Consultant has been called upon to indemnify the Indemnitee; provided
that:
(1) Consultant will not be relieved of its liability hereunder unless the Indemnitee materially
prejudices Consultant’s ability to defend the claim;
(2) Consultant will give the Indemnitee notice of its intention so to contest and defend within
ten (10) days from its receipt of notice of the claim;
(3) Such contest or defense will be conducted by reputable attorneys retained by Consultant
at it’s sole cost and expense, but the Indemnitee will have the right to participate in such
contest or defense and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing, at the Indemnitee's
sole cost and expense without contribution or indemnification by Consultant for such costs or
expenses; and
SPVV Landscape Architects Page 3 of 6 (Rev. 12/16/2015)
(4) If after notice of a claim Consultant fails to promptly assume the defense, Consultant will
be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnitee including any out-of-court settlement or
compromise and any out of pocket expense, including attorney’s fees.
c) Settlement of Claims. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, an Indemnitee will not
attempt to settle any Claim without Consultant’s prior written consent. Consultant will not
settle any Claim without the prior written consent of all Indemnitees who are or may
reasonably become parties to such claim unless the settlement contains a complete and
unconditional release of all Indemnitees from all claims for damages and does not impose any
non-monetary obligations on any Indemnitee. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, an
Indemnitee will not be indemnified to the extent that any Claim is caused by, arises out of, is
based upon or incurred in connection with the negligence or intentional misconduct of the
Indemnitee.
Article 6. Warranties and Limitation of Liability
6.1 Warrant Regarding Contingent Fees. The Consultant warrants that it has not employed or retained
any company or person, other than a bona fide employee working solely for the Consultant, to
solicit or secure this Agreement, and that it has not paid or agreed to pay any company or person,
other than a bona fide employee working solely for the Consultant, any fee, commission,
percentage, brokerage fee, gifts, or any other consideration contingent upon or resulting from the
award of making of this Agreement. For breach or violation of this warranty, the City shall have
the right to cancel this Agreement without liability or, in its discretion to deduct from the
Agreement price or consideration, or otherwise recover, the full amount of such fee, commission,
percentage, brokerage fee, gift, or contingent fee.

parties beyond Consultant’s control, and the City agrees that Consultant assumes no
responsibility for the accuracy of any such information. CONSULTANT MAKES NO
WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT,
AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS

non-performance of professional services under this Agreement, under any cause of action or
theory of liability whatsoever, shall be limited to the amount paid by City for such services. In no
event will Consultant be liable for any special, consequential or incidental damage arising from or
connected to a breach of this Agreement or the services performed, even if Consultant has been

Exhibit ‘A’
Scope of work: TC Sherry and Associates PS, dba SPVV Landscape Architects (Consultant)
and Coffman Engineers, Inc. (Sub-Consultant); will furnish Landscape Architectural Professional
services to the City of Liberty Lake (Client) as follows:
Project Understanding: Our approach includes an aggressive schedule to provide the City of
Liberty Lake sufficient information by early April 2016 to meet the Recreation and Conservation
Office (RCO) grant cycle of May 1, 2016. SPVV will furnish all labor and material for the
preparation of a master park plan (MP) for the area commonly referred to as “Orchard Park”
(project). The preparation of the master plan will be a combination of inventory and analysis,
programming and the preparation of a final master plan document that outlines a proposed
schedule, probable costs of construction, assistance with grant preparation and recommended
phasing.
Inventory and Analysis Phase
Using the current ‘50%’ complete inventory and analysis information prepared by the City of
Liberty Lake, SPVV will complete this phase of work in January 2016 along with a tour of the
project site. We will meet with the City of Liberty Lake staff to review and collect available
information or determine the need for additional data collection in a workshop session, and meet
with the City and developer to discuss the finalized inventory and analysis. A final meeting during
this phase would be with the stakeholders to present the finalized inventory and analysis and to
kick off the programming phase.
Deliverables that we expect to finalize during this phase of work includes the following:
Gather data, review existing information, and identify additional information required.
- Soils/geotechnical, drainage, utilities, existing concepts/plans, plats, etc.
- Input from City, LLSWD, Consolidated Irrigation District, Avista, Greenstone,
etc.
Assist with coordinating final park boundary/location including:
- Research existing deeds and record information, including easements and / or
encumbrances on site.
- Research road right of ways.
- Locate existing boundary monuments.
- Prepare survey boundary documents as needed.
Prepare base map for site including:
- Topography at one-foot contour intervals of the subject area.
- Existing trees 8” caliper and larger and landscape features.
- Existing utilities on the subject property (or adjacent to the subject site), based
on surveyed information and utility research with respective purveyors
(utility markings from 811 locate).
- Existing site features such as buildings, drainage and utility structures,
walkways, roadways, and other man-made structures.
- Survey will use Washington State Plane Coordinate System, along with NAVD
88 elevations, as basis.
Identify opportunities and challenges for subject site.
- Site placement, access, road improvements, parking, earthwork/grading, storm
water management, utilities, safety, etc.
Compile written and graphic material for summary of Inventory and Analysis Phase.
With the current information reviewed at the informational meeting on November 23, it is apparent
that the stakeholders have already completed part of the work that will determine the ‘right
content’ of the site to determine a preliminary program of elements, if not sizes or configurations.
This information will be further refined in Programming and Master Planning to arrive at the final
Master Plan for Orchard Park.
Programming Phase
With the completed Inventory and Analysis, the Envision Orchard Park documentation, and input
from the City of Liberty Lake, stakeholders, and the developer collected in the prior phase, our
team will use the Envision documents as a launch point to develop the preliminary park design
program. The design program will include all park elements identified in the Envision process with
regards to details of use and function, design criteria, and preferred adjacencies. Our team will
conduct a public workshop to determine the public sentiment of needs, desires, opportunities, and
constraints in a small-group format. With the prioritized park program in hand, we will be ready to
begin the Master Planning Phase.
Master Planning Phase
Our first task during the Master Planning Phase will be establishing criteria for evaluating the
design alternatives. We would suggest that a combination of stakeholder priorities along with
elements that will meet established recreational needs within the current parks needs
assessment would be appropriate, with local and larger-area recreational needs being met to a
large degree in an optimal design.
Schematic Design level alternatives will illustrate locations and sizes of major program elements
in a ‘bubble diagram’ version and a ‘refined’ version after meeting with the City of Liberty Lake
and the developer. Design narratives, including regulatory criteria, and summaries of costs and
issues requiring further study, will be prepared and reviewed with the City and the developer, and
refinements made to the alternatives prior to a public workshop. Engineering input will include
identification of opportunities and challenges, regulatory criteria and cost implications. The goal of
the public workshop will be to solicit input and consensus on the design program, layout, and to
discuss phasing of the project.
The SPVV/Coffman team will meet with regulatory agencies and permitting authorities to review
the initial schematic design concepts, and prepare a briefing for the City of Liberty Lake Planning
Commission and City Council, including project program elements, the schematic design
concepts, and cost ranges for the alternatives.
With the input of the City staff, regulatory agencies, stakeholders, Planning Commission and
Council, we will prepare the draft Master Plan from the preferred elements in the schematic
design concepts. Updated narratives and costs will be prepared at this time, along with a draft of
phased and prioritized park development, including timeline for completion of the work. The draft
Master Plan will be prepared to be consistent for submittal to the RCO WWRP in the local parks
category, per the 2016-17 grant cycle and application process. Preliminary engineering concepts
for the preferred alternative will be completed to provide cost estimating input, including
preliminary earthwork and grading, stormwater management, utilities and infrastructure, and
concept design of roads, parking and access.
Upon the completion of the draft Master Plan, we will meet with the City of Liberty Lake and the
developer to review the Draft Master Plan and supporting documentation, prior to a meeting with
the public to solicit comment on the project.
With the additional public input, we will refine the draft Master Plan as required to respond to
stakeholder comment, and finalize phasing and costing. We will then meet with the City of Liberty
Lake and the developer to review the refined plan, prior to the presentation of the refined plan to
City staff, the developer, the planning commission, and the City Council. Upon adoption, the
refined plan will be the final Master Plan for Orchard Park.
Estimated Schedule: SPVV proposes to complete the Inventory and Analysis phase in January
2016, with Programming completed in February, and Master Planning completed by early April,
2016. Work efforts will be coordinated with City of Liberty Lake City Council and Plan
Commission meeting dates, per the general outline above. Attached schedule is provided for a
general overview of the Master Planning process and target dates.
Proposed Fees: We propose fees to complete the above scope of work in the amount of
$48,750, including both SPVV and Coffman Engineering’s professional services and
reimbursable costs.
Deliverables will be provided in hardcopy and electronic format with original source files available
if desired.

SUMMARY STATEMENT
The Trailhead facility has sustained water damage due to large ice dams building on the roof. Our crews
have placed new heating elements on the roof and in drains to remove the ice. The interior of the
building needs immediate repairs due to water intrusion. See pictures below. We have a contractor
that has performed work for the City before that is able and willing to make the repairs. We should not
wait for bids due to the extent of the damage. The Contractor is Inline Framing & General Contracting,
Inc. Staff will present a time and materials contract to Council on 1-5-16. The best estimate on the
repair cost is between $10,000 and $20,000. Our goal is to repair the damage and ensure that we have
a facility that is safe for use by our staff and the public.
