Professional Services Agreement Arden Manor and Floral Parks Playground Equipment Replacement and Reconstruction Design and Construction Administration Services November 10, 2021 Page 1 of 14 Version2.3 02052021 THIS AGREEMENT is between City of Arden Hills (hereafter “CLIENT”) and HR GREEN, INC. (hereafter "COMPANY"). 1.0 Project Understanding The CLIENT desires to make improvements at Arden Manor Park which will be partially funded by a Ramsey County Community Development Block (CDBG) grant which was submitted and approved in 2021, and Floral Park, which will be funded by City Capital Improvement (PIR) funds. The parks may be improved with the following: playground replacement, basketball court resurfacing or updated to include additional court activities, park shelter improvements, park signage, lighting, parking and drainage improvements. The improvement of specific items will depend on public buy-in; therefore, public engagement will play a large role in the project. The original Arden Manor Park plan prepared as part of the CDBG grant approval will be used as a guide and enhanced based on Community input. The resurfacing or repurposing of Floral Park will also be dependent on public engagement feedback, park needs and project budget. The CLIENT is obligated to complete the Arden Manor Park improvements by December 2022, per the CBDG grant application, and anticipates having construction documents completed by March 2022 so bidding may occur in the spring of 2022. Construction would begin in the summer of 2022 with completion in the fall. While the City does not have funding obligated timelines for Floral Park improvements, they are scheduled for construction in 2022 in the 2021 Budget and CIP, and the intent is to combine both parks projects into a single design and construction project, realizing some cost savings and efficiencies of scale. The applicant for the Arden Manor Park grant funding is the CLIENT. COMPANY will work with CLIENT to follow all guidelines established by Ramsey County, coordinate activities, and prepare paperwork and updates required. CDBG eligible activities and requirements will be tracked separately for both design and construction. The Floral Park project will be a more traditional process, including public involvement, design and construction. At this time, there is no soil boring information for the sites. To design paving sections and footing elements for the site improvements, a geotechnical report including soil boring data will be collected under separate activities and combined with soil boring collections for the City’s street feasibility study. HR Green will prepare, coordinate, and submit reporting, agreements and other required documentation as needed in the design and construction of the project to comply with the CDBG program. 2.0 Scope of Services The CLIENT agrees to employ COMPANY to perform the following services: 1.
