November 8, 2010 <br />Heidi Nelson <br />City of Ramsey <br />7550 Sunwood Drive NW <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br />RE: Design Services for the City of Ramsey Municipal Center <br />Dear Heidi: <br />We are pleased to present this proposal for Design Services for the Ramsey <br />Municipal Center Building. Our understanding of the project is that the city <br />would like to explore making the following modifications to the facility: <br />• Lower the council dais <br />• Modify entry doors leading from the municipal parking ramp from a <br />single entry door to a double entry door <br />After discussing the project goals, BKV recommends providing the City of <br />Ramsey with exploratory services to determine the feasibility and potential <br />cost impacts of each of these modifications. Suggested initial workscope for <br />BKV would include the following: <br />Part 1: Dias modifications <br />• Review of existing construction shop drawings to identify possible <br />modification solutions <br />• Consult with a millwork contractor on site to review potential <br />solutions that would minimize major modifications or reconstruction <br />of the existing desk <br />• Request approximate cost impact of modifications discussed with <br />millwork contractor <br />• Review with City prior to proceeding with documentation of <br />modifications for bid <br />Part 2: Entry Door modifications <br />• Review of existing construction shop drawings to identify possible <br />modification solutions <br />• Determine whether existing door framing can accommodate the <br />structural modifications needed to implement a double door <br />installation <br />• Verify installation of double doors will still maintain all ADA clearance <br />requirements <br />• Consult with original glazing /door manufacturer to review potential <br />modification solutions for double door installation <br />
