RE: Professional Services Proposal for:
Autumn & Veterans Greenways Preliminary Design
Weihe Proposal No. PW250128
Dear Jeremy:
Thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal to perform landscape architecture services
for the proposed greenway improvements in the Autumn Greenway and Veterans Greenway
thcorridors. This proposal is based upon discussions with you on February 11, and afield walk
thwithEngineeringResources (ER) staff on February 20. The following project information
forms the basis of this proposal:
1. Weihe Engineers will partner with Engineering Resources, under separate contracts, to
develop Conceptual/Preliminary Engineering plans for the corridors.
th2. The east-west alignment of the Autumn Trail follows the 126 Street/Autumn Drive
rdalignmentandwillextendfromOldMeridianStreetto3Avenue SW.
3. The north-south alignment of the Veterans Trail will tee into the Autumn Trail west of
Guilford Avenue, and run north through several properties to aterminus at Main Street
and Old Meridian. It will also include aconnection to the VFW facility.
4. A route survey will be prepared (by Weihe Engineers) under a separate contract.
5. We understand the all-in budget for the two projects to be $12.4 million, funded through
a local bond.
6. Additional work outside of contract scope shall be approved by the City prior to
commencement of work.

Proposed Scope of Services
1. Preliminary Design:
We will attend a project kickoff meeting with the City and Carmel-Clay Parks staff
to confirm project scope, deliverables, and schedule, and review unique
characteristics or challenges associated with each trail segment.
We will work with Engineering Resources (ER) to prepare deliverables. ER will
focus on the alignment of the trail
design work will be complementary and will help sort out alignments through
complicated locations, and amenities along both alignments. Our deliverable will be
a booklet style packet depicting design solutions for detail areas.
Weihe scope of work as the project Landscape Architect will include:
o input on the mainline trail alignment
o developing alternatives in tight areas where a simple routing is not
possible.
o advising on connections to adjacent areas
o locating nodes/trailheads as part of the overall project
o recommendations regarding roadway crossings.
o landscape plantings/fencing/screening
o trail branding/wayfinding signage to develop individual identities for the
trails.
We will work to develop guidance on land acquisition, seeking to balance the trail
user experience with any perceived imposition on trail neighbors.
We will work with ER to develop a preliminary cost opinion for the projects.
We will meet with the City and ER staff to review the proposed preliminary design.
Schedule of Deliverables
We assume that the project schedule will be established at the project kickoff meeting with the
City and Carmel/Clay Parks staff. The following is a suggested schedule for the project.
Task Duration
Kickoff Meeting Within 30 days after Survey is Complete
Alignment Progress Discussion 45 Days
Alignment Presentation & Focus Area Discussion 45 Days
Trailhead, Signage, and Loose Ends Discussion 30 Days
Final Deliverable 30 Days

Assumptions
The following assumptions are a basis for this proposal:
The City and/or Carmel/Clay Parks will handle any coordination of the public
engagement process and presentations including publications, legal notices, and
related matters.
During the project, we will keep the City informed as to the status of the progress of
the design and of decisions that need to be made to keep the project moving on
schedule.
Weihe Engineers reserves the right to increase fees remaining in contract after one
year from signed acceptance by 3% annually.

identifying these items, and determining which member of the team will provide the service, we
have identified items that may be needed but have not been included with this proposal:
Topographic or boundary survey (services to be addressed in a separate contract)
