mas ter plan for future building configuraon, improvements , and programming opportunies .
D I S C U S S I O N
S taff developed a Request for P ropos al (R F P ) to develop a facility master plan for the R R C. S taff emailed
the R F P to four qualified and recommended firms on M ay 18 w ith a due date of June 8.
The R F P as ked for evaluaon of the layout and flow of the building and provide recommendaons to
be3er uliz e the s pace. The four des ign items specifically called out in the R F P include (1) creang a pao
from the banquet room to the green s pace on the wes t s ide of the building, (2) converng the
receponis t area into a space that is A DA acces s ible, w arm, and inving, (3) developing a be3er flow /
layout to eliminate the choppy feel and creang efficient and effecve s paces , and (4) analyzing the use of
four entrances into the building. The R F P invited interes ted firms a tour of the R R C prior to submi9ng a
proposal. 292 D esign G roup of Minneapolis, M N, toured the R R C prior to submi3al of their propos al.
Their proposal is a3ached.
292 D es ign G roup is propos ing stakeholder input to develop a preferred facility master plan. The facility

a3ached propos al for addional details on the proposed facility mas ter plan process.
The 292 D esign G roup w orked w ith F i=y North in Northfield on a expansion / renovaon study and the
new M ary A nn Young Center in Blaine on a s tudy to constructed project.
T he cost for 292 D esign Group’s facility master planning services for the R ambling R iver C enter is $15,000. Five

Re: Revised Proposal for the Rambling River Center Master Planning
Dear Missie and Kellee:
We are pleased to submit this revised fee proposal for the master planning services for the existing
Rambling River Center. This proposal provides a revised Scope of Services as presented in the Work
Plan submitted in our proposal dated June 8, 2022.
Project Understanding
292 Design Group understands that the City of Farmington is requesting assistance in developing a
long-term vision for the Rambling River Center and identifying what improvements are needed. 292
Design Group will assist the City and RRC staff in facilitating the process and defining outcomes for the
study.
Scope of Services
Work Plan
The revised work plan below outlines our understanding of the tasks required to meet the needs of the
City and RRC to create an overall vision for the future along with potential costs and phasing.
Project Kick-Off
292 will meet with City and RRC staff and all other important stakeholders. At this initial meeting, it is
important to discuss the goals of the study and to set the direction for this undertaking. From this
meeting, 292 will prepare a work plan which outlines milestone dates, identifies decision makers and
project stakeholders, and sets expectations and outcomes.
Deliverables: Meeting minutes, project schedule, project goals
Data Collection, Facility Analysis and Base Plan
The 292 team will review all available data on current activities and operations in the building and
review any existing building data (roof and mechanical system analysis) and existing building plans. We
will conduct a tour of the building to better understand how the facility serves the citizens of
Farmington. From the facility analysis, existing plans will be updated, and conditions of various systems
will be documented.
Deliverables: Facility base plan (existing), existing building analysis – systems narratives and analysis
`
Stakeholder Input
Our team will gather input from City leadership, RRC staff and the other key stakeholders and conduct
one stakeholder input meeting. This will help us better understand and evaluate health, wellness,
recreational, and social activities in the building and learn what users would like to include in the future
development of the building.
Deliverables: Meeting minutes, summary/analysis of input
Facility Program Development
After collecting this input, our team will prepare a written facility program. This program document
outlines recommended modifications and their associated, specific space needs. The program also
begins to establish facility parameters, becoming the foundation for further project development.
Deliverables: Detailed facility program document (space needs, adjacencies, operational requirements)
Concept Options
From the facility program, 292 will develop up to three building layout options that show potential
renovations or reconfiguration of spaces. These will be reviewed with the City and RRC staff to
determine which option would best serve the community now and into the future.
From this discussion, a final option – which may be a combination of features from the various
alternatives – will be developed. This now become the framework for the new Rambling River Center.
Deliverables: Meeting minutes, preliminary options, refined option
Cost Estimation
Loeffler Consulting will develop a construction cost estimate and overall project budget with some
possible options for phasing work if needed to work within available funding.
Deliverables: Cost estimate, comprehensive project budget, potential phasing plan
Study Report Document
292 Design Group will assemble all the data and study information into a comprehensive, user-friendly
report. The report will document the study process, provide plans that outline the proposed changes to
the building, address operational issues, and help define the economic parameters of the improvements
to the facility. This report will contain the information that RRC and the City of Farmington will need to
make critical decisions moving forward.
Deliverables: Final study document
Communications and Presentation
At the completion of the study, 292 will present the recommendations to the Farmington City Council
and other public presentations as requested.
Deliverables: Sketches, plans and other data for public communication and presentation
Study Team
All the work in this study will be conducted by the team as outlined in our proposal:
292 Design Group
Pam Anderson
Maria Manion
Loeffler Consulting
Jonathan Murray
`
Compensation for Services
We have estimated the fees for the study based on each segment of the workplan.
Project Kickoff $800
Data Collection, Facility Analysis, Base Plan $2,400
Stakeholder Input $1,200
Facility Program Development $800
Concept Options $4,000
Cost Estimation $2,500
Study Report Document $2,500
Communications/Presentation $800
Total Fee $15,000
It is often difficult at the beginning of a study, such as this one, to ascertain the best approach to all the
issues to be addressed. 292 has completed numerous studies for a wide variety of communities and we
have often modified the approach as the study proceeds. As this study proceeds and the requirements
vary, 292 will tailor our services to best assist the City of Farmington and the RRC. 292 strives to modify
our services without increase in fees.
Should additional services be required beyond the scope outlined in this proposal these services will be
billed at the hourly rates listed below, and only with prior approval of the City.
Principal $200
Project Planner $140
Project Cost Estimator $150
Reimbursable Expenses
Reimbursable expenses (mileage, printing) have been included in the total fee noted above.
Time Frame
292 is ready to proceed immediately, and upon your acceptance and authorization to proceed. 292 is
committed to complete the work according to Farmington’s required schedule.
We look forward to the opportunity to work with the City of Farmington and the Rambling River Center.
If you have any questions regarding this proposal, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Pamela Bakken Anderson, AIA
