We understand the project is to involve removal and replacement of sidewalks and curb and gutter around the Plaza, and for about 1/2 block from the Plaza in each direction. New sidewalks would meet applicable handicap accessibility requirements, and contain decorative elements as well as historic lighting, planting areas, landscape irrigation and related features. Some of the sidewalks will he structural, spanning basements of the adjoining buildings. The project is partially funded through the TxDOT TEA 21 program, and coordination with TxDOT will be an integral part of this assignment. Our firm currently has 4 projects underway which illustrate experience and qualifications on projects of a similar nature. Two of these are in Bonham -- Bonham Central Business District Improvements -- This $820,865 project involves the removal and replacement of existing sidewalks and curbs around the square in downtown Bonham. Historic lighting is being installed, together with landscape areas and irrigation. This project is being funded by the City of Bonham and the Texas Capital Fund. Since both the south and the east sides of the square are state highways, coordination with TxDOT has been an integral part of the project. David Beard, P.E., is serving as project manager for this project, on which construction is currently about 50% complete. Alan Vanderburg, P.E., provided the electrical design for the historic lighting. Bonham Sam Raybum: Drive Project -- This $500,000 project involves removal and replacement of existing sidewalks and curbs along Sam Rayburn (SH 56) from the central business district out to SH 121. Other elements include 24" and 36" storm sewer, historic lighting, accessibility improvements, landscaping and irrigation. Construction is now 70% complete. While the project is funded entirely by the City, SH 56 is a state highway which has required close coordination with TxDOT throughout the project. Reeves Hayter, P.E. is serving as project manager. Cooper "Heritage Square" TEA 21 Project -- This project, funded though the TxDOT TEA 21 program, involves sidewalk and curb restoration around the square in downtown Cooper. The project will also install a tourist information kiosk and a historical marker commemorating the City's original water well dating from around 1899. The project has been funded, and preliminary design coordination with TxDOT has begun. Mike Donnan, P.E., is serving as project manager for this $125,000 project. Commerce Monroe Street Improvements -- This $900,000 project includes water and sewer replacements, paving, curb and sidewalk replacements and 21" through 36" storm sewer for about 8 blocks of Monroe Street along the east edge of the Texas A&M-Commerce campus. Telephone utilities are being relocated underground, and TXU overhead facilities are being consolidated to make room for handicap accessible sidewalks and ramps. Coordination with TxDOT was required in various intersections along the project route. Construction is now 50-60% complete. David Beard, P.E., is serving as project manager for this project. Reeves Hayter, P.E., President, will be the principal-in-charge for the project. Mr. Hayter has some 28 years experience in surveying, consulting, planning, design, testing, construction review, operations and environmental reviews for a broad cross-section of civil works. David Beard, P.E., will be the project manager for the project, and will provide the engineering design. Mr. Beard has some 7 years experience in consulting, planning, design, and construction review for a wide range of civil works; including specifically the Bonham and Commerce projects cited above. Kenneth Jones, P.E., R.P.L.S., will coordinate the surveying for the project. Mr. Jones has over 42 years engineering experience in transportation planning, design, construction, and surveying. Alan Vanderburg, P.E., will provide the electrical engineering design for the historic lighting. Mr. Vanderburg has about 14 year experience in engineering design and project management in various electrical, mechanical, and civil projects. Specific experience include the historic lighting design for the Bonham Central Business District Improvements project cited above. The proposal package which follows this letter includes resumes of each primary team member, reference contacts, and a list of past projects by client. 2 Attached is a list of our past project identifying dozens of communities for which our firm has performed various municipal engineering services. Many of these are long term clients for whom we have conducted multiple projects during our 43 years of service to this region. All of these projects have been in the northeast Texas area, and we feel that we have special expertise in representing the cities in this region. Located in Paris, we feel that we can respond promptly to the City's needs. Design of all our projects are assisted using AutoCAD software. This, combined with the personal pride that our employees take in their work, results in a high level of design quality. With a staff of six professional engineers and twenty-six total full-time employees, we believe we offer the stability and flexibility of somewhat larger firms, while still maintaining a size that allows the principals of the firm to be directly involved with every client. Our six professional engineers have a combined total of over 100 years of professional engineering experience, including prior experience on TxDOT. These services are supported by our administrative staff of 6 employees which also prepare contract documents and conduct the administrative aspects of our projects, including bid and award process, processing partial payment estimates, change orders, etc. Once again, we appreciate the opportunity to submit our qualifications, and your time and effort in considering our firm. We would be happy to provide such additional information as the City may require, and would be pleased to appear before you or the City Council for an interview if that would be beneficial in your selection process.
