Agreement with Page +Moris for the Dublin Library Building Program Update
Prepared by Diane Lowart, Parks and Community Services Director
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
One of the Parks and Community Services Department Key Initiatives for Fiscal Year 2011-
2012 is to explore the feasibility of installation of a coffee /snack area at the Dublin Library
through the initiation of a Library Building Program Update. As a result, consultant services are
required in order to prepare an update to the 2000 Dublin Library Building Program.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The adopted Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Library Operating Budget included an appropriation of
$21,250 for the completion of this study. The total cost of the study is $48,660 which includes
an estimated $1,500 in reimbursable expenses. The Alameda County Library will pay one-half
of the cost of the study or $24,330. A budget change, which will transfer the $27,410 from the
Budgeted contingent reserve to the Library Operating Budget professional services account, will
be necessary to fully fund the study. Additionally the Budget Change will reflect the
reimbursement from the Alameda County Library. Thus, the net additional cost to the City of the
study is $3,080.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council: 1) Adopt the Resolution approving the agreement with Page
+ Moris for the Dublin Library Building Program Update; and 2) Approve the budget change.

DESCRIPTION:
One of the Parks and Community Services Department Key Initiatives for Fiscal Year 2011-
2012 is to explore the feasibility of installation of a coffee /snack area at the Dublin Library
through the initiation of a Library Building Program Update. As a result, consultant services are
required in order to prepare an update to the 2000 Dublin Library Building Program.
Kathy Page, presently a principal with Page +Moris, prepared the original Dublin Library
Building Program in 2000. The Building Program identified the space needs and other
requirements of the new public library facility for the City of Dublin. The study summarized the
space needs and provided a complete portrait of the new facility which was then used by the
library architect in developing the final building design and layout.
The scope of services for the Library Building Program Update will include a review of the
current facility space needs, including an investigation into the feasibility of incorporating an
informal food concession within the facility. The review will also identify space-related issues
throughout the facility, including space planning recommendations for best utilization of the
facility's expansion spaces as well as best use of currently occupied spaces. Updated cost
estimates for build-out of the library will also be included in the scope of services. The complete
details of the scope of services are listed as Exhibit A of the Consultant Services Agreement
attached to the Resolution in Attachment 1.
The Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Library Department operating budget appropriated $21,250 to
conduct the study. Based on the proposed scope of services, the proposed agreement totals
$48,660. The Alameda County Library has indicated that they would fund $24,330 (50% of the
cost). A Budget Change has been prepared (Attachment 2) which will recognize the County
contribution of $24,330 as revenue and approves additional expenditures of $27,410. The
additional costs are funded from the County Library contribution and a transfer of $3,080 from
the Budgeted Contingent Reserve.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:

^ Order Consultant to stop work under this Agreement or withhold any payment that
becomes due to Consultant hereunder, or both stop work and withhold any payment,
until Consultant demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof; and/or
^ Terminate this Agreement.
Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Consultant shall
indemnify, defend with counsel selected by the City, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers,
employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions,
damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to
property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole
or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees,
subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character
of their work. The foregoing obligation of Consultant shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage
to property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its
officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Consultant or its employees,
subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or
violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and hold harmless includes the
duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance
certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Consultant from liability
under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall
apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been
determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Consultant acknowledges and agrees to the
provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that this Agreement is a "construction contract" as defined in
California Civil Code section 2783, as amended from time to time, such duty to indemnify shall not apply
when to do so would be prohibited by California Code section 2782.
In the event that Consultant or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Consultant providing services
under this Agreement is determined by a court of competentjurisdiction or the California Public Employees
Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Consultant shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions
for PERS benefits on behalf of Consultant or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the
payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of
City.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The City requires a review of the current facility space needs of the Dublin Library Building, including an
investigation of the feasibility of incorporating an informal food concession within the facility. The review
will extend beyond that issue to identify space-related issues throughout the facility, including space
planning recommendations for best utilization of the facility's expansion spaces as well as best use of
currently occupied spaces.
To accomplish these tasks, an interactive process with a project committee made up of representatives of
the City of Dublin and Alameda County Library will be undertaken as outlined below. The process is
organized around three rounds of working meetings.
Meeting #1: This session is an information gathering meeting with key Library and City personnel to
identify space related service and functional issues and to brainstorm possible solutions.
Page +Moris will facilitate the meeting, using a large scale set of floor plans as a
communications tool to talk the group through needs, issues and potential improvement
strategies.
A follow-up session, with key Library and City representatives, will be conducted to
prioritize those needs that are essential to address, secondary needs and needs to
address in the future. We will document the meeting input and priorities to guide us as we
proceed to develop 2 - 3 initial space layout options.
Meeting #2: At this session, Page +Moris will present 2 - 3 initial space layout options to the project
committee for discussion and input. We will also share tabulations that compare the
building's shelving, seating and public computer capacities under each option. We will
document the committee input directly on the layouts and use these to refine the proposed
layouts. The goal will be to consolidate the space plans into a maximum of 2 revised layout
options. At this point, we will work with a cost estimator to identify the costs associated with
each of the two refined layouts.
Meeting #3: At this session, Page +Moris will present the refined layout options and cost estimates for
discussion. We anticipate that the final space plan will be substantially established by the
end of this meeting, requiring only minimal adjustments to the floor plans for completion.
We will make those changes and send the approved final space plan, with corresponding
revised cost estimate to the City in electronic and hard copy formats.
Consulting Services Agreement between November 15, 2011
City of Dublin and Page +Moris--ExhibitA Page 1 of 2
Project deliverables will include:
1. Final space plan
2. Cost estimate to implement final space plan
3. Tabulations for shelving, patron seats, and public computers in the final space plan
4. A memo that summarizes and prioritizes the space issues identified and describes the improvement
strategies selected to address each issue. This memo will be 8 - 10 pages in length that is an
addendum to the original library building program.
Page +Moris understand that the City wishes to undertake this study very soon with the work to be
completed by the end of February 2012. Upon execution of the Agreement, Page +Moris will prepare a
work plan/schedule that outlines a process that meets this schedule.
For cost estimating services, Page +Moris proposes to engage the services of Mack5, a project
management and cost planning firm based in Emeryville. Mack5's project manager Paul Beamer was
involved in the design and construction of the library during his tenure with BSA Architects, making Mack5
an excellent resource both for cost information as well as information about the library structure.

ASSUMPTIONS
We understand that the walls separating the expansion spaces will be demolished. Beyond
1. that, construction changes will be minimal and limited to those necessary to significantly
impact the space plan.
We understand that community involvement will be limited to a presentation to the Friends
2. of the Library by the Library manager. Page +Moris will not make community presentations
other than Task 5.7 at the project end.
Specific furniture product selection is not included. Space plans will denote generic furniture
3. types, with outline dimensions and footprints, for space planning purposes only. Complex
furniture pieces, such as service desks, will not be designed.
4 Cost estimate will include construction costs only. It will not include moving costs or other
soft costs.
We assume that the final space plan can be developed in a 3-meeting cycle of sessions
5. (Tasks 2.1, 3.4 & 4.7). If additional, intermediate meetings are required, we would expect
these to be addressed as additional services.
6 The final space plan will be an accurate space plan that an architectural firm can use to
prepare construction drawings that the City can then use for bidding purposes.
We propose to use a cost estimator who is familiar with the building. We have included
7. hours, therefore, for P+M to discuss building issues with the cost estimator as we develop
the layouts.
