Box 7214 . Missoula, Montana 59807 p: 406.721.7077 f 406.721.3035 entail: info@design-balance. corn www.design-bala nee. coin This report is a summary of the LEED process and findings for the Lincoln Center project in Fort Collins, Colorado. Two other documents are part of the LEED analysis and are included with this report: LEED NC v 2.2 Registered Project Checklist and a LEED Analysis for Conceptual Design spreadsheet. The City of Fort Collins has set a goal of attaining a minimum Gold Level rating in the LEED for New Construction program. The purpose of this analysis is to determine the following: • The most advantageous LEED version and program • Conceptual design strategies that will assist with cost effectively meeting the LEED Gold goal • Determination of issues or concerns that will need to be addressed in order to meet LEED credit requirements. LEED version and program The Lincoln Center conceptual design calls for the existing building to have new additions on part of every fagade of the building, essentially creating a new exterior appearance and adding space for public functions, circulation and upgraded public and service amenities. The existing Lincoln Center facility will receive some new finishes and some lighting, plumbing and HVAC upgrades. Because the new additions are so integrated with the existing, there is no straightforward way to separate the new construction for LEED purposes. We evaluated the available LEED programs of LEED for New Construction (NC) for part or all of the building, LEED for Commercial Interiors (CI) and LEED Mr. Dave Lingle June 18, 2009 Page 2 Our recommendation is that the building will score best, and be most consistent with the City of Fort Collins intent to have Gold level high performance and environmental qualities, with the LEED NC program covering all of the new construction and renovation of the existing building. The LEED NC Checklist currently shows 42 points as achievable, with another 16 points that are in need of more development. Separately, we reviewed the LEED NC version 2.2 and the new LEED NC 2009 program. The project will score better under the LEED NC 2.2 program, due in part to the limited opportunities to improve energy efficiency in the existing building. As a result, the City of Fort Collins authorized us to register the project under the LEED NC 2.2 version. The LEED Online website has been set up, with all `yes' and `maybe' credits shown on the LEED Registered Project Checklist marked as attempted. We recommend that during the next design phase, when more is known about the opportunities for improving energy efficiency, that the LEED version be re-evaluated. The project can transfer to LEED NC 2009 at no charge until the end of December 2009. Conceptual Design LEED strategies The Conceptual Design has included a number of strategies to meet the LEED Gold goal: • Reuse of over 95% of the existing walls, roof, floors and other elements. • Small, but strategic additions to the existing building to greatly improve the facility function and comfort to visitors and staff. • Improved energy efficiency in lighting, new mechanical units, improved wall insulation and high performance windows. • No added parking, but with some spaces re -allocated for fuel -efficient vehicle parking. • Roof stormwater runoff will be infiltrated on site through swales and landscaping features. • Protection of existing trees and plans for native or adapted landscaping that will be water -efficient. • Site lighting will be full cut-off fixtures and will not have light trespass beyond the site. • Low VOC finishes for the new and existing areas, including paints, adhesives, sealants, carpet and composite wood. • The plumbing fixtures in the existing areas of the building will be replaced with efficient flow and flush fixtures of the same high efficiency of the new construction. The goals are to use dual flush toilets, pint per gallon urinals, low flow lavatory and kitchen faucets, and low flow shower heads. • Structural, exterior wall and interior finishes have high recycled content. • Innovation credits are planned for high levels of water efficiency (over 40% savings), green cleaning procedures, recycled content over 30% and green education integrated into the building.

Page 3 of 21 Mr. Dave Lingle June 18, 2009 Page 3 Issues or Concerns to be confirmed during the next design phase A number of questions arose during the conceptual design that could not be answered. Most of those items are included in the LEED Analysis for Conceptual Design spreadsheet, but a summary of the key concerns are summarized below. Since the Conceptual Design team did not include civil, landscape, mechanical or electrical engineering consultants, many of the items will be able to be resolved once they join the design team in the next phase of design. • Development of the landscape design with native or adapted species to meet the requirements of credits SS 5.1, SS 5.2 and WE 1.1. • Calculation of the pre and post development stormwater quantity to determine if we can meet the required 25% reduction. The concept design plans to send roof runoff to landscape features or swales in order to allow on -site infiltration, which will help achieve this goal. The stormwater concepts bear on credits SS 6.1 and SS 6.2. • Confirmation of the roof system or membrane type to determine if the roof will qualify for the credit SS 7.2 heat island requirements of SRI of 78 or better. • Confirmation of the refrigerant type and quantity for EA Prerequisite 3 and credit EA 4. • Development of an energy model for credit EA 1 that includes the existing building to determine if the strategies lined out in the conceptual design meet the goal for at least 6 points (28% better than base for all new construction, an estimated 22% better when interpolated with the existing building square footage.) • Analysis of cost of meeting the 2.5% annual energy goal from renewable energy after the energy results are known. • Calculation of the existing roof, walls and floor to remain for credit MR 1. Our preliminary calculations in the conceptual design phase show we will meet the 75% goal and the 95% goal. This will need to be confirmed as the design develops in the next phase. • Confirmation that the existing building meets the minimum ventilation requirements for EQ prerequisite 1. The existing equipment may need to be adjusted or replaced if the minimum requirements cannot be met. The calculation should be done early in the next design phase by the mechanical engineer. • Confirmation of the cost of meeting credit EQ 1 (outdoor air delivery monitoring) which requires outside air measurement, controls and carbon dioxide sensors in densely occupied spaces. • Confirmation of whether the existing HVAC equipment can accommodate higher efficiency filtration (MERV 13 or higher) required for credit EQ 5.

DESCRIPTION The proposed project is the design and construction of an approximate 17,050 square foot addition, and a remodeVrenovation of designated existing areas of the Lincoln Center. Major components of the design shall include: • Renovation of the Canyon West Room with an addition for conference storage, bride's dressing room and other TBD uses on the west side. • Renovation of the Columbine Room adding storage and an operable wall to divide the space. • Renovation of the mini -theater, including reconfiguring the seating in a continental layout to increase capacity from 210 to 270-280 people. • Renovation of the existing gallery area into storage and a rear corridor and a rear corridor for the Mini -Theater stage. • Additions to the north side of the facility for enlarged lobby entrances for the Canyon West and Administrative areas, the Mini -Theater and a widened circulation corridor, including airlock vestibules. • Addition at the northeast side of the facility for an enlarged and relocated Gallery area. • Addition to the main lobby for a new airlock vestibule. • Additions on the east and southeast sides of the facility for a new elevator to the balcony level and new handicapped accessible rest rooms. • Provisions for permanent wet bar locations near the Main Lobby, the Gallery, and the Mini -Theater entrance. • Addition behind the Performance Hall stage for a quest artist's suite, two star dressing rooms with private baths, a chorus dressing room with baths, a green room, laundry, and set storage. Provisions for storage of a new shell that will be used by the symphony. • Replacement of existing monument sign on the comer of Mulberry and Meldrum Streets. • Other miscellaneous upgrades, including new finishes throughout the public areas, new lobby lighting. • Redesign of the exterior sculpture garden areas and entrance plazas to the north, northeast and east sides of the Lincoln Center. • A possible open air, second story deck as illustrated in the concept drawings. 2. SUSTAINABLE DESIGN Definition of Sustainable Design: "Meeting the needs as a society today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs." It should not be a surprise to know that 35-50% of the total energy produced in this country is consumed by the built environment. The resources required to attempt to create, operate and replenish this level of infrastructure and necessary income are enormous and diminishing. U.S. consumers utilize greater resources per capita than Page 5 of 21 any other people worldwide. We consume about 20,000 pounds per person per year of construction -related materials. These include virgin forest products, fuels, steel, glass, cement and plastics. Twenty to thirty percent of the waste being delivered to landfills across the country is building demolition/construction waste. We cannot continue this trend without severely impacting future generations. Integrated, innovative, sustainable design and construction techniques minimize energy usage and damage to the environment while providing benefits for people using the building. Sustainable development ideally results in the following benefits: energy and water savings, reduced pollution, conservation of natural resources, promotes recycling, better indoor air quality, enhanced occupant comfort, productivity and performance, enhanced building durability, and reduced maintenance costs. Balancing initial construction costs and long-term operational costs will be an important challenge. The integrated design team will be expected to use an integrated "whole building" design approach to take into consideration the effect the design elements, energy and resource constraints, building systems, and building function have on one another. Use of an integrated approach is required to address daylighting opportunities, building envelope, and building system choices. Use of a multidisciplinary team approach that allows all team members to share specialized expertise and coordinate their individual efforts to achieve a synergistic, environmentally responsible building is essential to our success. The Architect/Engineer, as the leader of the integrated design team and process, shall be responsible for maintaining the focus on and commitment to the integrated energy/high performance goals of the project. All team members must be encouraged to evaluate the benefits of innovative high efficiency design ideas in a cooperative, creative atmosphere. INDOOR AIR QUALITY Do not use products and materials that contain asbestos, carcinogens, volatile organic compounds, and other known toxins. Do not design mechanical systems that encourage the growth of molds, fungi, and bacteria. HUMAN PERFORMANCE Project design should create spaces that are safe, healthy, and comfortable. Avoid factors that introduce glare, temperature extremes, odors, and noise into the building. Page 6 of 21 k. Any "special systems" design services needed for a performing arts facility. I. Interior design and furniture design services. m. LEED consulting and all documentation submission to USGBC. The City of Fort Collins requires, that the principal architect has some experience in the design of performing arts facilities and include a planning firm experienced in working with the City of Fort Collins planning and development review process. CHAPTER 4 - SPECIAL INTERFACES 1. SUSTAINABLE DESIGN The goal of the City is that the project will be designed using the U.S. Green Building Council's (USBGC) LEEDTm Green Building Rating System for new construction and major renovations, to earn a "Gold" certification.
