Our firm is experienced in the County 1041 Application and hearing process, and has been responsible for successful applications under a variety of circumstances. Moreover, our qualifications as designers and landscape architects as well as planners, enables us to perform services required to represent the trail concepts and features in the best possible way, and to advise on modifications that may be required as part of the hearing and approval process. Under this proposal we would prepare the 1041 Application and provide the information required for submission to Community Development Department based on design work already completed by Pitkin County trails staff. We would provide a large-format colored illustrative drawing of each of the trail facilities for presentation in the hearing process. We would also notify adjacent property owners of any public hearings and attend the hearings. In addition to these services, we would like to be considered for any additional design support services that may be required for the landscape architecture relating to the design of the trail facilities, as well as support activities that may be required to address concerns of abutting property owners. - In preparing a County 1041 Application, we use a code/response format, where every section of the land use code identified in the Pre-application Conference Summary is addressed with an appropriate response. Where required,that response may direct the reviewer to additional material presented in the appendices. We have found this format to be a successful one in presenting material to staff and referral reviews. We are pleased that, using this format, we have always had our applications accepted as complete by the Aspen/Pitkin Community Development Department on the first submittal. This was the manner in which we presented the Brush Creek Trail application for you in the summer of 2001. PLANNING AND DESIGN SOLUTIONS FOR COMMUNITIES AND PRIVATE SECTOR CLIENTS ) Temple Glassier, Project Manager Pitkin County Public Works 18 April 2002 Page 2 In preparing applications, we pay particular attention to issues raised by referral agencies. The trail and observation deck applications should have minimal impact on wildlife, wildfire, or County engineering concerns. However, on referral to these agencies, some issues may be identified. We will work with the County Trails & Open Space Board and staff, to promptly address any issues that may be raised, and recommend modifications and mitigation as may be required. The proposed timetable is to begin work within one week of authorization. We would contact the planner involved to update the Pre-Application Conference Summaries, which have expired. The applications could be completed for filing within thin 30 da s of receiving a revised Pre-application Summary. Subsequent deadlines are based upon the scheduling of referrals and hearings by the Community Development Office. Accordingly, based on the Pitkin County Pre-application Conference Summary you provided for these projects, we propose to undertake the following activities: 1. Prepare a full 1041 Hazard Review Application, based on the trail design and layout provided by County staff, addressing all issues and areas of response identified in the Pitkin County Pre-application Summaries, dated 5 March 2001. 2. Prepare two illustrative colored drawings showing the trail alignment and the observation deck, for presentation at the public hearing when scheduled. 3. Provide all activities required for adjacent property owner notification, including production of an abutters map and labels from the Aspen/Pitkin County GIS Office, mailings to abutters by certified mail, and preparing a posting notification signs at the sites. 4. Attend the public hearings, when scheduled, to present the two projects, and receive and respond to any issues that may be raised at the hearing. The proposed Not To Exceed Fee for these activities is Four thousand five hundred $4,500)dollars, based on our estimate of the time required to complete these activities and bilianle TUT-our dourly rates for public agencies and non-profits. Additionally, we estimate project expenses of approximately$500 for printing and binding, plan sets, GIS and postage expenses for mailing and not' ication, etc. Our billing rates are $]45/hour for principal's time, $ 25/hour for senior planner, and $,20/hour for landscape architect. Expenses are billed at cost. Statements are provided monthly and payable within 30 days. Not included in this estimate is design work which may be required for modifications to the trail alignment or features as part of the hearing process or negotiations with landowners, additional hearings that may be required as part of the 1041 process, or negotiations with landowners for trail easements. We would be pleased to provide these additional services, as may be required, at our hourly rates. 1 Temple Glassier, Project Manager Pitkin County Public Works 18 April2002 Page 3 We would be very pleased to have an opportunity to work with Pitkin County on this project. It was a pleasure working with you in permitting the Brush Creek Trail facility. Questions and requests for additional information may be addressed to either Stan Clauson or Jennifer Dolecki at the above address.

Our firm is experienced in the County 1041 Application and hearing process, and has been responsible for successful applications under a variety of circumstances. Moreover, our qualifications as designers and landscape architects as well as planners, enables us to perform services required to represent the trail concepts and features in the best possible way, and to advise on modifications that may be required as part of the hearing and approval process. Under this proposal we would prepare the 1041 Application and provide the information required for submission to Community Development Department based on design work already completed by Pitkin County trails staff. We would provide a large-format colored illustrative drawing of each of the trail facilities for presentation in the hearing process. We would also notify adjacent property owners of any public hearings and attend the hearings. In addition to these services, we would like to be considered for any additional design support services that may be required for the landscape architecture relating to the design of the trail facilities, as well as support activities that may be required to address concerns of abutting property owners. - In preparing a County 1041 Application, we use a code/response format, where every section of the land use code identified in the Pre-application Conference Summary is addressed with an appropriate response. Where required, that response may direct the reviewer to additional material presented in the appendices. We have found this format to be a successful one in presenting material to staff and referral reviews. We are pleased that, using this format, we have always had our applications accepted as complete by the Aspen/Pitkin Community Development Department on the first submittal. This was the manner in which we presented the Brush Creek Trail application for you in the summer of 2001.
