PHASE I. ANALYSIS OF
IMPLEMENTATION ISSUES
There are three elements of successful implementation. The first is the market. Even
though the physical arrangement of the plan will be different from suburban "develop-
merit as usual", the overall amount of development will be driven by market needs and
trends. The second element is the s/re itself.' ownership patterns, access, development
history, current uses and character, and adjoining conditions can both constrain future
development and provide new oppommities. The final element is people: attitudes
and interest on the part of property owners, political leaders, business leaders, resi-
dents, and institutions can enable or inhibit the acceptance of regulation and the
necessary support for public investment Our first phase is focused on getting a clear
picture of these elements.
1. Develop a summart of the market potential for the area.
a. Analyze available economic growth trends data including housing units sales by
unit type, commercial growth, competing retail and apartment development
projects, retail sales growth, gaps in the retail or entertainment markets.
b. Review the market trends uncovered in other studies.
2. Preliminary analysis of the physical site.
a. Using available information such as aerial photos, so/Is surveys, utility informa-
tion and GIS, identify and map possible physical development constraints.
b. Develop a profile of the history of development in the study area and its
mediate surroundings. Identify important potential connections to other
areas of Cannel and examine previous plans.
c. Construct a physical site model and three-dimensional computer model as a
baseline to explain and demonstrate the existing and proposed conditions.
d. Identify other site development constraints, including current zoning and
development controls, access and traffic, property ownership patterns and
current land use conditions.
3. Creation of the Project Advisory Committee
a. Debrief the Old Meridian Task Force on the results of their recent interviews
and study. Consult with the Task Force and city officials to develop a list of
prominent stakeholders for the Project Advisory Committee.
b. Interview key. individuals about the project. Such people might include major
property owners, City officials, representatives of major institutions in the area
and communi.t7 leaders. The goal of these interviews will be to assess the level
of support for the project among these individuals and to involve them in the
process.
c. Activate the Project Advisory Committee and present the results of Phase I for
their review.

PHASE II. CONSENSUS
BUILDING AND PROGRAM
DEVELOPMENT
PHASE III. DESIGN/' PLAN
DEVELOPMENT
In this phase we develop a consensus about the goals for the project through a process
of working with the Project Advisory Committee and the public. For the most part,
we will start with the understanding of the project as a mixed use, medium and high
density area. In this phase, we will prepare a development program describing the
project more explicidy. We will review this work in a public workshop which also has
the goal of raising awareness about new planning concepts. In our experience, it is
important to involve stakeholders in the process of design, especially if we anticipate
that the plan may be somewhat different than the low-scale, single-use development in
the surrounding ci~ Steps include:
1. Prepare an estimated program for the ten year development of the study area,
including the number of types of housing units, the square footage of commercial
space (retail, hotel, entertainment) and the amount of institutional growth expected.
This will be done using growth trends and the analysis of development constraints in
Phase L The growth program is a fle_xible estimate based on the best information at
this time. Review the program with the Project Advisory Committee.
2. Prepare for and hold a workshop for the Project Advisory Committee and inter-
ested other parties, including Carmel city council members and the public. The
workshop will:
a. Review the development program and other materials prepare, d in Phase I.
b. Show examples of mixed use developments in other parts of the country and
region, comparing their programs, advantages and constraints with the Old
Meridian Corridor study area.
c. Use the physical model and computer models as tools to demonstrate the scale
and size of certain ideas. For e. xample: how big is a four story apartment/mixed
use building? How does a 100 foot wide boulevard look compared to the
condition today? The computer model will be used to generate eye-level views
and fly-through of proposals for development and public space.
d. Discuss the anticipated regulatory mechanisms and potential implementation
strategies, including City investment
e. Arrive at a consensus about the goals or vision for the study area and the level
and type of development controls and/or public investment that is possible or
likely to be implemented.
PRODUCTS OF PHASE I!:
· Growth Fogram
· Report of the Workshop which summarizes goals.
In this phase we develop conceptual alternatives based on the growth progum and
goals developed in Phase ft. For the most part alternative will illustrate different
frameworks of infrastructure and land use/building types that can support the progum
and are adaptable to change over the period of development. It is crucial that the
urban design plan be flexible to allow for market shifts or other changing conditions.
1. Prepare up to three diagrammatic conceptual alternatives for the study area. These
plans show street networks and street section design, open space and paths, location
and building types of mixed use nodeS, location of and types of housing.
2. Review conceptual alternatives with the Project Adviso.ry Committee. Select a
single alternative and revise based on review comments.
3. Prepare a more detailed illustrative development plan, with enlarged views to show
important areas. Plans show landscape, street sections, proposed layout of lots and

PHASE IV. IMPLEMENTATION
AND FINAL PLAN APPROVAL
blocks, entrance elements and other civic design e~amres, parkring areas. building
types. Illustrate the plan with computer-generated eye-level and bird's-eve views.
4. Prepare a narrative description and program of the development plan, including an
outline of the development standards.
5. Review the development plan with the Project Advisory Committee. Revise the
plan based on this review.
PRODU~"'rS OF' PHASE !i1:
· Three conceptual alternative plans at a minimum scale of I '- YO0'
· Finallllurtrative devdopmentplan at I, = YO0'.
· Up to ttrree enlarged detail area plans at I ' = YO'.
· Birds-eyeperspettive ofdevdopmentplan.
· Narrative description oftheplan
· Outlineofdevelopmentstandar&.
In the final phase, the development guidelines and regulations are drafted and coordi-
nated with existing comprehensive plans and regulations. A capital improvement plan
for the study area is also developed. This phase indudes a public hearing on the plan
and draft regulations, and working through the process of final approval.
1. Prepare the development and site design guidelines, land use plan, zoning map and
text and infrastructure guidelines to reflect the desired development,
2. Work with the City of Carreel to coordinate the regulatory text and maps with
existing zoning and subdivision regulations and with the standard practice of approvals
in the City.
3. Prepare an estimate and phasing plan for anticipated capital improvement projects

FEE PROPOSAL
The work and all products described in this proposal can be accomplished for consult-
ing sevice fee of $83,200. The fee includes the consulting services of Scheer &
Scheer, Inc. and Development Concepts, Inc. The fee also includes five Project
Advisory Committee meetings (including the workshop) and five public hearing/City
Council meetings. Additional visits for data gathering, staff consultation and inter-
views are also included.
The City of Cannel will also be charged for reimbursable expenses. This includes
materials, digital output, photography, reproductions, telephone, travel expenses, and
copying costs. We estimate these expenses at approximately $3,000 for the proje~
which would not include printing costs for brochures, marketing materials, guidelines,
and so on, if these are needed. All products of the process will be provided in both
hard copy and digital formats suitable for printing.
Services not spedflcaHy described in the proposal are not included in the fee. Addi-
tional services are available to the client at the Scheer & Scheer, Inc.' s normal hourly
rates of $80 for Principals, $55 for Project staff and $30 for Junior staff, plus expenses.
The fee is contingent on the timely completion of the project and on the eonsuhnnts'
ability to pursue the project in a continuous manner. We anticipate that the projec~
will take no more that five months from authorization. If the project extends beyond
seven months, because of the City's delays in project reviews or scheduling of meet-
ings, we reserve the fight to renegotiate the fee to reflect additional costs.
BREAKDOWN BY PHASE
The fee will be payable monthly based upon the completion of the work Scheer &
Scheer, Inc. requires a Five Per Cent (5%) retainer to begin work. The retainer will
be applied to the final invoice. The approximate fee for each phase of the work is as
follows:
Scheer & Scheer Development Concepts TOTAL
Phase I $18,500 $7,000 S25,500
Phase H $11,800 $5,000 S16, 800
Phase lIT $16,400 $2,500 $18,900
Phase IV $19,000 $3,000 S22,000
TOTALS $65,700 $17,500 $83,200

GENERAL APPROACH
TO THE PROJECT
PUBLIC INPUT PROCESS
SCOPE OF WORK:
CARME!,., INDIANAy OLD MERIDIAN CORRIDOR STUDY
The general approach that we propose to take is based on the assumption that the
development of the Old Meridian area will be undertaken by a series of private
developers or institutions who are responding to positive market conditions. In other
words, we are assuming that there will not be a single developer with a single large
project. Although the Task Force has examined projects which are similar .in terms of
the desired mix of uses and densities, most if not all of these projects rely on a single
owner/developer working in concert with the city. The task of implementation is
much more challenging when multiple land owners and existing uses are taken into
consideration.
Our process is therefore designed to be extremely sensitive to issues of implementation.
We believe a design project can be effective only if it begins by understanding bow it
=ill eventually be accomplished. For the most part, it will be necessary to guide and
encourage new development and redevelopment by providing a framework of civic
infrastructure and by preparing a master plan and regulatory code (guideLines) so that
separate development projects work towards the desired design goals as they are built.
The Old Meridian Task Force has akeady outlined a vision that is exciting and
workable, representing a new way of building in suburban areas which are currently
dominated by single-use, low density arrangements. Because the Task Force is
proposing something different, there is likely to be some resistance and thus, a need to
build public support for and interest in the new project. Landowners and potential
developers need to be involved. This is also a part of successful implementation.
Our process proceeds in the following steps:
gust, we examine the issues which will effect implementation: Who owns the land ?
What is the level of support for public investment and development controls ? What is
the market for housing and mLxed use? What are the physical constraints suchas
access ?
Second, we develop a consensus about the new ideas that the Old Meridian Task
Force has brought to the table and how they can be carried out. We do this in a public
workshop where visual examples and a visual preference survey are used to raise
awareness about street design, higher density development and mixed uses. The
consensus-building process leads to the development of a specific program- a mix of
uses that are both desired and marketable.
Third, we prepare alternative design frameworks which are a response to the imple-
mentation issues and to the consensus about the goals and program for the project,
These alternatives are illustrated so that they. can be well understood and compared.
Finally, we develop a capital improvement priority list and write specific guidelines to
implement the plan. We will also prepare a zoning map for the project area and work
with the City Attorney. to prepare zoning texts that will carry. out the plan.
~Ve believe that public involvement is essential, and in a design project which continu-
ously evolves, participation must be consistent and direct This assures that prior
decisions are not revisited and that people have enough backgound on the project to
make informed decisions in a timely way. x, Ve propose that the Old Meridian Task
Force be augmented with additional public stakeholders to form a 15 member Project
Advisory Committee. The Project Advisory Committee should consist of volunteer
representatives of land owners, nearby businesses, potential developers, City staff and
officials, and nearby residents. Since the Old Meridian Task Force has already been
deeply involved for over a year, their continuing participation will be key. The project
advisory committee will meet approximate .ty once a month with the consultant to
review key products as outlined below.

Dear Brenda:
As we discussed, the City of Cannel has requested additional professional services from your fh"m. Pursuant to our current
contract with Scheer & Scheer, Inc., Contract # 0421.99.04, dated April 21, 1999, I have requested and received from you
the proposed scope of services and fee estimates for the following work task:

Additional Illustrations (for inclusion in zoning/guideline report)

As I understand it, your time estimate is to begin immediately following the Notice to Proceed, with the completion of these
services to follow the proceedings and actions of the ongoing meetings of the Old Meridian Corridor Task Force. I hereby
approve this additional professional services estimate, and grant you the Notice to Proceed on providing these services.
Please be advised that work on the original and this Additional Services contract should be billed on separate invoices. All
invoices should be referenced to the original Contract # and/or Additional Services # where applicable. Thank you ibr your

Dear Mike:
As you know, the reimbursable expenses for our Old Meridian study were limited by contract to
$3,000. Our most recent invoice exceeded this amount by $12 and we have yet to invoice you for
major expenses (about $1,700) that were incurred in the production of a summary brochure, slides,
draft reports and large format color output which we used in the public meeting· In addition, there
have been significantly more costs associated with travel than we had planned, since most meetings
occur very early in the morning, necessitating an overnight stay·
This letter is a request to increase the reimbursable budget from $3,000 to $9,000. The increase
would cover the costs already incurred, enough money to pay for the five additional trips that we
anticipate under the contract, and an amount sufficient to reprint 25 bound color copies of the draft
report (18 pages), 200 color copies of the summary report (4 pages), and two poster-sized mounted
color reprints of the revised plan· I am assuming that the zoning legislation will be a black and white
document with line drawings and diagrams so it can be photocopied at minimal expense.
Of course, as always, we pass on expenses at our direct cost, without mark-up charges.
If this is acceptable, please sign and return one copy of this letter to be attached as an amendment to
our contract.

Dear Mike:
I am pleased to provide you with this proposal for extra services on the Old Meridian plan. My
understanding is that you and the Old Meridian Task Force would like to illustrate the zoning
legislation document with diagrams and sketches that would clarify the design guidelines and other
features of the document. I am expecting that this will require up to 3 0 figures to be developed and
added to the document.
The anticipated additional cost for this service is $5,000. This includes one additional meeting with
the Task Force to review the structure ofthe legislation and illustrations, development ofup to 30
black and white illustrations, and layout and desk top publishing of the document, with one revision
after a draft has been reviewed.
If this is acceptable, please sign and return one copy of this letter to be attached as an amendment to
