RE: Prior Lake Pickleball CD, Bidding, and CA - Design Services Proposal
Dear Andy,
HKGi is pleased to submit the following design services proposal to support the City in the evolution of the new
Pickleball facility in Spring Lake Park. HKGi will lead the facility design project and will be supported by Bolton and
Menk for tasks related to surveying, civil engineering, and coordination of soil borings. The project scope includes
additional design time to build upon the concept plan included within the recent feasibility study and to support the
confirmation of the phase one project elements. Following the agreed upon scope of the phase one improvements,
our team will proceed with the preparation of construction plans and details, and general and technical specifications.
Our team will coordinate the bidding process by posting plans online, answering bidders questions, formulating the
recommendation of a qualified contractor, and will support the administration of the construction to ensure that
phase one of the park is built in compliance with the design plans and specifications.
The initial design tasks will focus on park grading, bituminous trails, pickleball courts and fencing, an expanded gravel
parking lot, and potentially an alternate for shade structures within the courts. Consideration will be given regarding
phase 2 site grading if it is determined that the inclusion of the work would be beneficial to the future park
improvements at the north end of the park. We propose to accomplish the project with the following general tasks:
Project Startup (late July 2020)
The HKGi Team will conduct a project startup phase to organize the effort, develop base map materials, to coordinate
the required topographical survey, and conduct the geotechnical tasks required for the project. We will meet
virtually with City staff to provide the opportunity to discuss and confirm the available funding for the project. The
following tasks will be completed during the Project Startup phase of the work:
• Develop site topographical and limited boundary survey
• Coordinate soil borings to support anticipated park elements (courts and parking lot)
Preliminary Design (August 2020)
Upon completion of the project startup, the HKGi Team will develop preliminary design documents for the identified
project features and will incorporate the ideas into draft plans and details. The following tasks will be completed
during the Preliminary Design phase of the work:
• Layout and design options for the park elements; pickleball courts, fencing, netting, shade structures, trails,
gravel parking lot, stomwater ponding.

• Meet virtually with City representatives to present and review the draft design ideas and related preliminary
cost estimate, receive comments and adjust design accordingly.
• Begin the Coordination of the SWPPP and related stormwater related permitting.
• Summarize input on the preliminary design documents.
Final Design (Early Sept 2020)
Based on input and the related agreed upon refinements to the Preliminary Design, the HKGi Team will further
develop the design for the proposed features. Final Design tasks will include developing a detailed site plan with
enlarged plans to identify locations of proposed elements, construction details, materials selections, grading and
drainage plans, and planting and restoration plans necessary to implement the approved design. The following tasks
will be completed during the Final Design phase of the work:
The construction document set is anticipated to include the following:
• General and technical specifications (incorporating City standards where needed)
• Summary of Quantities Worksheet
• Site Layout Plan
• Planting and Restoration Plan
• Grading and Drainage Plan
• Construction Details – enlarged plans, sections, elevations
Review a 95% construction document progress set and updated cost estimates with staff
• Update construction documents based on comments received.
• Support City staff in seeking authorization to solicit bids.
Bidding Support and Construction Administration (late Sept through mid Nov 2020)
The HKGi Team will support the bidding and construction administration needs associated with the project including
the following tasks:
• Review ad for bid and post bid documents online for bidding.
• Attend virtual bid opening, support the tabulation of bids, and the recommendation of a qualified bidder.
• Provide construction observation at key project intervals.
• Review submittals, shop drawings, mockups related to project design elements.
• Coordinate required site materials testing, etc.(paid by contractor)
• Prepare any necessary RFI and change orders.
• Review pay requests and recommend payment amounts to the City
• Prepare preliminary punch list.
• Prepare final punch list and facilitate the development of project closeout documents.
Project Assumptions:
• Structural, Electrical and Mechanical engineering will not be required as part of the design of the project
elements, and if deemed necessary will be considered an additional service.
• The project will be bid as one package and will be bid once. Additional bidding will be coordinated if deemed
necessary on an hourly basis. Staking assumed to be by the selected Contractor
• Additional meetings (TRPD Coordination, Public meetings, additional staff design meetings) will be pre-
approved by staff and tracked and billed hourly in addition to the proposed base fee – if required.
PROFESSIONAL FEES
Professional fees related to the above defined scope of work include all expenses and will be billed as a lump sum
commensurate with the percent of work completed to date. Fee breakdown per phase of work is as follows:
