REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
8644 CM/GC FOR CITY PARK REFRESH
SECTION 1 – OVERVIEW AND PROJECT BACKGROUND
This Request for Proposal is issued to provide the selection process for Professional
Services to provide Construction Manager / General Contractor (CM/GC) services for City
Park Refresh.
A. Overview
On behalf of the Park Planning and Development Department, the City of Fort Collins (City)
is seeking proposals from qualified Construction Managers/General Contractors (CM/GC) to
provide preconstruction support services and construction services related to the design and
construction of City Park Refresh in Fort Collins, Colorado. City Park Refresh is a 15 acre
renovation within the 76 acre exiting park, located south of W. Oak Street, north of W.
Mulberry Street, and west of Jackson Avenue (See Attachment A – map of Work Limits for
City Park Refresh). Design and the public engagement process for a first phase of
construction will be in 2018; construction of the first phase is planned for 2019; and design
and construction administration for future phases is yet to be determined.
CM/GC is a contracting method that involves the contractor in the design process. The
selected CM/GC will be required to enter into a Services Agreement – Work Order type. The
City anticipates award of separate Work Orders for Preconstruction Support Services and
Construction Services. The intent is to form a partnership with the City of Fort Collins
(owner), the entire project design team and the selected CM/GC. The desire is to form a
strong partnership and to collaborate through the design process to minimize risk, improve
the construction schedule, promote innovation, and a cost-efficient construction.
Through separate RFP processes, the City will select an Architect–Engineer Design Team
and a Playground Designer and Manufacturer. Selection of an artist for art-in-public-places
for this project will happen during design. Through a separate RFP process, the City has
selected Hillcrest Shops to design and fabricate a new City Park Train. Hillcrest Shops will
assist in the design of the tracks and will install the 15 gauge tracks. The selected CM/GC is
expected to, in collaboration with the City, coordinate the efforts between these groups.
B. Background
City Park plays an important role in the Fort Collins community. It has provided citizens a
place to recreate, reflect and celebrate for over 104 years. It was designed in keeping with
the City Beautiful movement with a pastoral style of broad green spaces and groves of
trees. It is important to respect the Park’s history while considering the Park’s future needs
and potential. It offers the following recreational amenities: outdoor pool, lake, boardwalk,
trails, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, baseball field, softball field, basketball court, multi-use
play fields, passive recreation, parking, restrooms, picnic facilities, playgrounds, pottery
studio, Club Tico, trolley ticket booth and trolley station, and a self-guided arboretum tour.
Many of these facilities / park components are in need of replacing or upgrading. In addition,
as components have been added to the park over time, conflicts between park user groups
have developed. In order to better understand the needs of the park, an analysis of City
Park and how it is currently used was performed. In addition, a public outreach process was
conducted to identify the current and future needs of the park.

RFP 8644 CMGC for City Park Refresh Page 4 of 31
A series of public meetings and public outreach events were conducted in 2016. From this
process, ten goals for future improvements in the park were identified:
1. Respect history and character of City Park
2. Improve pedestrian safety near City Park pool
3. Improve sense of place
4. Incorporate a new City Park Train
5. Improve the playground
6. Add or Improve Restroom
7. Improve entry to Club Tico
8. Provide safe, convenient parking
9. Enhance bicycle and pedestrian connections and facilities
10. Add or enhance picnic shelters
From this, a series of conceptual ideas for refreshing the park were created and presented
to the public at a variety of events and meetings. Citizen survey responses to the various
concepts developed, along with the 10 goals, were the guiding force behind the
development of a Conceptual Master Plan for City Park Refresh (See Attachment B). For
more information, visit our web site for City Park Tomorrow at:
https://www.fcgov.com/parkplanning/cityparktomorrow.php
SECTION 2 – PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND PROJECT FUNDING
A. Project Description
City Park is a well-used and cherished existing park. With the amount of existing utility
infrastructure in the park area, implementation of improvements may require utility (water,
sewer) relocation, new utility or service taps. Water quality and LID regulations may be
implemented to meet City stormwater requirements. Exterior lighting may incorporate LED
options with dimming capabilities, with color temperature at 3000k or less and enhanced
controls may be required. Infrastructure for the project may need to support future PV
systems. Design solutions will address the City Strategic Plan goals of meeting the Climate
Action Plan and net zero energy impacts. Traffic control during construction will be a high
priority for this project. In addition, the existing trees and their root systems, will be critically
important to preserve in place and protect during construction. Refresh improvements to
City Park are limited to the “core area” of the park as identified in Attachment C. The
conceptual plan includes:
▪ Integration of a new train ride (budget for design, fabrication and installation of the
locomotive, gondolas, caboose and laying the 15 gauge track are separate from this
RFP; preparing the sub-grade and providing site preparations for the train tracks are
included in the work of the CM/GC);
▪ Integration of the trolley tracks / ticket booth further into the core area of the park;
▪ Open-air train and trolley pavilion to securely store and display both the train and
trolley year-round (both water and electricity to be provided at the structure);
▪ Improvements to parking and vehicular circulation (including potential closure of a
portion of City Park Drive);
▪ Addition of a vehicular drop-off for parents and buses near City Park pool;

▪ Improvements to pedestrian circulation (including a pedestrian promenade that will
also serve as an emergency access to the north edge of the lake);
▪ Hardscape improvements to the north lake edge;
▪ Hardscape and landscape improvements to the entry of Club Tico (on the east side
of the building);
▪ Six new picnic shelters (shelters intended to be of the same size and design; group
of 5 existing shelters to be removed);
▪ One new restroom facility (existing restroom to be removed);
▪ Addition of a dog park (approximately 1/2 acre in size);
▪ Addition of a custom designed tree canopy / forest themed playground for 2-5 and 5-
12 year olds (to be designed, fabricated, shipped and installed by the selected
Playground Designer / Manufacturer);
▪ One acre or more of public gardens at the combined train and trolley pavilion;
▪ Additional landscaping;
▪ Architectural elements within the trolley gardens (i.e. arbor, trellis, pergola, walls);
▪ Modification / replacement of existing Irrigation and installation of new mainline (See
Attachment D – map of existing irrigation controllers and mainlines);
▪ Site lighting (new and/or modified walkways, new and/or modified parking areas,
tennis courts, dog park, and other areas as needed);
▪ Additional or replacement drinking fountains (i.e. dog park, playground, picnic area,
pavilion);
▪ Site furnishings (benches, bike racks, trash receptacles, planters);
▪ Safety fencing along train tracks, around dog park, and expansion of fencing at pool
(safety fencing for train tracks may be combined with vegetative barriers to provide a
safe environment for train passengers and other park users alike);
▪ Possible storm water and utility modification and/or relocation (See Attachment E –
conceptual map of existing utilities);
▪ Possible re-grading work for train tracks and other park features (CM/GC to be
responsible for providing the civil with survey documentation after construction is
complete so the civil can provide grading/drainage certification post-construction);
▪ Pedestrian bridge crossing of train tracks;
▪ Relocation of tennis courts;
▪ Protection of existing trees (See Attachment F – map of existing trees in the City
Park Arboretum);
▪ Landscape architectural services are to be provided by the City.
The CM/GC will be responsible for meeting all current state and local licensing requirements
in the construction of park components and facilities. The standards referenced and
included in this RFP are intended to establish the expectations the City has for this project
regarding quality and performance.
B. Project Funding
Funding for a first phase of construction of City Park Refresh is $1 - 1.2 million. The City
is interested in pursuing additional funding for a second phase of improvements to City
Park Refresh.

SECTION 3 – CM/GC SCOPE OF WORK AND FEES
The City expects the CM/GC to provide pre-construction support services during design and
construction services related to the completion of a first phase of construction for City Park
Refresh. The CM/GC will be integral in identifying a phase I project, based on the current
available budget of approximately $1-1.2M. The CM/GC will prepare an initial cost estimate
based on schematic design and then again at 50% design drawings for improvements listed
above and shown on the conceptual plan for the core area, after which a phase I project will
be identified and constructed. The priority for the first phase of construction includes, at a
minimum, the train and associated elements, extension of the trolley tracks further into the
park and the addition of the combined train and trolley pavilion. Future phases of the project
are anticipated, based on the availability of additional funding, which could be secured as
early as January 2019. If additional funding is secured, the intent is to have the project team,
including the CM/GC, continue work on successive phases of the project, following the Work
Order process described below.
CM/GC Requirements are to include, but are not necessarily limited to the following:
A. Preconstruction Support Services Work Order
The CM/GC team relies on the expertise of the General Contractor to deliver a better
product in less time and at a cost competitive rate than traditional design-bid-build
construction processes. The selected CM/GC will be awarded a Preconstruction
Support Services Work Order for each phase of the project, prepared and administered
by the City. The cost of the Work Order will be based upon a final negotiated scope,
total hours and unit rate for each key employee for “Preconstruction Support Services”
submitted as part of the Unit Price Cost Proposal. The Preconstruction Support Services
Work Order will be issued per Section 10 Sample Agreement.
The CM/GC is required to provide the following expertise during the Preconstruction
Support Services Phase of City Park Refresh:
1. Provide a designated representative to participate in the design effort, which will
begin upon contract award.
2. The CM/GC is required to bring the following skills, knowledge and expertise
during the Preconstruction Support Services phase of the project. Following are
minimum requirements:

will be fully engaged throughout the design process and be willing to provide input
when requested. The CM/GC shall be compensated for time spent providing design
assistance as identified above, in accordance with the Preconstruction Support
Services Work Order. It is likely that the CM/GC will be required at bi-weekly
coordination meetings as identified by the City. The CM/GC may be required to
engage and coordinate with stakeholders and design team members prior to
construction.
B. Construction Services Work Order
Official Purchasing Document
Last updated 10/2017
RFP 8644 CMGC for City Park Refresh Page 8 of 31
1. Construction Contract Price Negotiations:
When the City, the Architect-Engineer Design Team, and the CM/GC agree that the
first phase of the project has been designed to a sufficient level of detail to allow the
CM/GC to accurately price construction elements of the project, Construction Contract
Price Negotiations will commence. In order to expedite the project, Construction
Contract Price Negotiations may start before the completion of the Preconstruction
Support Services. The CM/GC’s work effort for Construction Contract Price
Negotiations will be separate from its Preconstruction Support Services, and will not
be compensated for by the City. The CM/GC will be compensated for construction
cost estimates prepared during the design process prior to Construction Contract
Price Negotiations. The City will determine when Construction Contract Price
Negotiations have begun. The Construction Contract Price Negotiations will conclude
with the establishment of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Construction Work
Order agreement. The Construction Work Order agreement will incorporate general
conditions using the Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract
prepared by the Engineers Joint Contract Document Committee (EJCDC) and other
provisions in accordance with the City’s construction contract requirements. A
template of the City’s Construction Agreement is available upon written request. Any
exceptions to the agreements must be stated with your submission of qualifications
for this project. The City makes no guarantees it will change the agreements but may
consider the exceptions.
2. Price Negotiation Process:
The following procedures will be used for Construction Contract Price Negotiations.
▪ The designer will produce a set of the relevant plans and specifications
showing the work to be accomplished;
▪ The CM/GC will prepare a “bid” to perform the work. The bid will include
detailed unit line item pricing and may include lump sum items as appropriate;
▪ As part of the “bid” the CM/GC will obtain a minimum of 3 quotes for all major
subcontracted work unless otherwise approved by the City;
▪ The City will develop an independent construction cost estimate for the work or
may engage an independent third party to perform the construction cost
estimate;
▪ Upon opening the CM/GC’s “bid” the City will determine the acceptability of the
“bid” by comparing it to its independent construction cost estimate;
▪ If the City determines the prices are acceptable, the City will prepare a Work
Order for construction services. If a previous Work Order for construction
services had been entered into, this work may be added to that contract by
change order;
▪ If the prices are not acceptable the City and the CM/GC will conduct a price
negotiation meeting to discuss the variances between the “bid” and
independent construction cost estimates;
▪ Following the price negotiation meeting the Construction Contract
Negotiations will enter into subsequent iteration of the above noted process;
▪ The City reserves the right to require the CM/GC to enter into “open book” cost
model price negotiations at any time through this process, where the CM/GC
Official Purchasing Document

RFP 8644 CMGC for City Park Refresh Page 9 of 31
will be required to reveal and defend its detailed pricing breakdowns including
labor, materials, equipment, subcontractor and supplier quotes, mobilization,
and mark-up. See below for the City’s “open book” negotiation requirements;
▪ At any time, if the City determines that an agreement cannot be successfully
negotiated, the City reserves the right to terminate Construction Contract Cost
Negotiations and the Preconstruction Support Services contract and procure
the construction of the project by other means. If the City then offers the
project up for public bids the CM/GC will not be eligible to bid on the project.
3. “Open Book” Negotiations Process: Negotiations may require any or all of the
following information.
The CM/GC shall submit information as requested by the City to the extent
necessary to permit the City to determine the reasonableness of the “bid” price. The
CM/GC shall provide cost or pricing data, broken down by individual work item, for
the CM/GC and each major subcontractor. The CM/GC may also be requested to
submit material and subcontractor quotes, anticipated labor and equipment usage,
and anticipated production rates.
If requested, the CM/GC shall submit a written proposal for the work identifying the
major elements of the work, the quantity of the element, and its contribution to the
proposed price. Further breakdowns, if requested by the City, shall include:
▪ Material: Furnish quotes and/or material invoices showing the cost of
material to be incorporated in the work;
▪ Labor: Show basic hourly rates, fringe benefits, applicable payroll costs (workers
compensation, insurance, etc.) paid subsistence, and travel costs for each labor
classification and foreman employed in the work;
▪ Equipment: Provide a complete descriptive listing of equipment to be used in the
work including make, model and year of manufacture. Support rented or leased
equipment costs with invoices;
▪ Other direct costs: Furnish documentation of invoices to support any other direct
costs to be incurred that are not included above (e.g., bonds, mobilization,
permits, etc.);
▪ Production Rates: Provide actual hours of performance, on a daily basis, for each
labor classification and for each piece of equipment;
▪ Subcontract Costs: Provide supporting data as required above;
▪ Overhead: Identify overhead rates and list the types of costs that are included
in overhead;

That information that has or will come into its possession or knowledge in connection with the
performance of services for the City may be confidential and/or proprietary. The Service Provider
agrees to treat as confidential (a) all information that is owned by the City, or that relates to the
business of the City, or that is used by the City in carrying on business, and (b) all information
that is proprietary to a third party (including but not limited to customers and suppliers of the City).
The Service Provider shall not disclose any such information to any person not having a legitimate
need-to-know for purposes authorized by the City. Further, the Service Provider shall not use
such information to obtain any economic or other benefit for itself, or any third party, except as
specifically authorized by the City.
The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Service Provider understands that it shall have
no obligation under this Agreement with respect to information and material that (a) becomes
generally known to the public by publication or some means other than a breach of duty of this
Agreement, or (b) is required by law, regulation or court order to be disclosed, provided that the
request for such disclosure is proper and the disclosure does not exceed that which is required.
In the event of any disclosure under (b) above, the Service Provider shall furnish a copy of this
Agreement to anyone to whom it is required to make such disclosure and shall promptly advise
the City in writing of each such disclosure.
In the event that the Service Provider ceases to perform services for the City, or the City so
requests for any reason, the Service Provider shall promptly return to the City any and all
information described hereinabove, including all copies, notes and/or summaries (handwritten or
mechanically produced) thereof, in its possession or control or as to which it otherwise has
access.
The Service Provider understands and agrees that the City’s remedies at law for a breach of the
Service Provider’s obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement may be inadequate and that
the City shall, in the event of any such breach, be entitled to seek equitable relief (including without
limitation preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance) in addition to all
other remedies provided hereunder or available at law.
