This effort builds upon our 2017 Facility Needs Study and responds to the City’s current direction to secure a new site and define a modern facility that supports operations long-term. Project Background The City of Verona currently operates its Department of Public Works Garage at 410 Investment Court, a facility documented in 2017 as undersized and constrained in both building space and yard capacity. The prior study determined that expansion of the current site was not feasible and identified the need for a new 12–18 acre site to support fleet storage, repair bays, crew support, and yard functions. Since that study, the City has continued to experience service and asset growth, and has identified 6500 Shady Bend Road as a potential site for initial consideration. With Council interest in moving forward, the City has requested an updated facility program, a structured site selection process evaluating up to five parcels, and a Conceptual Design package of the chosen site. Service Objective The objective of Conceptual Design will be to provide design criteria needed to select a site, confirm the building and yard program, and illustrate the scale, layout, and budget of a new DPW facility. The work will supply decision-makers with clear comparisons of candidate sites, updated operational programming, and a conceptual plan that demonstrates how the facility will function and grow sustainably into the future. Task 1 – Facility Program Update This task will ensure that the building and yard program accurately reflect the City’s current operational needs, future growth, and sustainability goals. • Barrientos Design will revisit the 2017 optimal building program and update it with current data on staffing, fleet composition, parts and materiel counts, public interface, and service growth projections. Barrientos Design & Consulting | www.barrientosdesign.com | (414) 271-1812  • We will meet with DPW staff and City representatives to review operational workflows, space allocations, equipment usage, parts storage, parking schemes, site parking and traffic patterns, public interface, and bulk material storage. • Document the updated building, equipment, and site needs in a Facility Program Statement. • Develop technical narrative of sustainability and resiliency opportunities including provisions for electric vehicle readiness, and alternative fuel support. • Assess the relationship of Parks, Forestry, and Recreation functions to confirm which groups should remain in the existing facility versus moving into the new DPW complex. The outcome of this task will be a revised Facility Program document establishing space tabulations, departmental adjacencies, building design criteria, and site layout needs for the next 10 years. Task 2 – Site Assessment and Selection This task will establish the suitability of candidate parcels and provide a ranking metric for decision makers. • Barrientos will evaluate up to five sites identified by the City, including parcels that are currently not for sale. • Establish site selection criteria and their weighting of importance. • For each site, we will analyze size, zoning, access, utilities, development cost factors, and compatibility with surrounding land uses. • For the five sites, we will first create a Site Test-Fit Layout Diagram showing how all the building and yard functions fit on the parcels. • Following review of the five sites, the City will advance three parcels for further analysis and create building floor plans and site plans for each. • We will create a comparative evaluation matrix ranking the parcels according to critical criteria such as circulation efficiency, expansion potential, stormwater considerations, and infrastructure availability. • Our team will prepare site narratives describing benefits and constraints and present findings to City staff and the Council in both technical and visual formats. The outcome of this task will be a recommended preferred site, supported by a transparent evaluation process that aids public and Council decision-making. Task 3 – Building and Site Conceptual Design This task produces conceptual layouts and visuals that illustrate how the program fits onto the selected site and establishes a framework for future design phases. The top-ranking site will be advanced to full Conceptual Design, approximately 10% of full design along with cost estimates and permitting scenarios. • Using the updated program and the top-ranked site, Barrientos will prepare conceptual floor plans, site layouts, and simplified building cross sections and elevations. Barrientos Design & Consulting | www.barrientosdesign.com | (414) 271-1812  • These concepts will define major spaces such as heated vehicle storage, repair garages, wash bays, shops, crew support areas, offices, and yard functions. • We will prepare preliminary circulation diagrams to show traffic flow for staff, fleet, and the public, as well as yard storage layouts, fueling stations, and stormwater management areas. • The Conceptual Design package will include colored site plans, schematic floor plans, and rendered aerial views to illustrate the overall scale and appearance of the facility. • A high-level cost estimate and draft development schedule will also be prepared. • To support engagement, we will conduct one workshop to gather City input and feedback. The outcome of this task will be a comprehensive Conceptual Design Package that sets scope, direction, and budget for advancing into subsequent Preliminary and Final Design. Deliverables • Updated Facility Program report • Site Assessment Report with evaluation matrix • Conceptual Design Package with plans, renderings, and cost estimate • Presentation materials for Council and staff Schedule The Conceptual Design effort will be completed over four months. By the end of month three, draft program, site assessment, and conceptual design documents will be prepared. The fourth month will be dedicated to City Council presentation, feedback, and final revisions. Compensation & Terms Barrientos Design will provide the above services for a lump-sum fee of $42,315. This fee includes reimbursable travel and reproduction expenses. Billing will be monthly, based on percentage completion, and the services will be provided under our attached Standard Terms & Conditions. We look forward to assisting the City of Verona in evaluating potential sites and preparing a Conceptual Design package that will guide this critical investment in your public infrastructure.
