expansion and contraction with concrete roadways. This project would use enhanced
concrete, requiring lane closures and communication to our stakeholders. This project would
begin approximately in May.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY(INCLUDING APPLICABLE ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY)
In November 2018,the Town Council approved an agreement with Stantec Architect Firm to update the
Master Facility Plan for the Westlake Academy campus. In conjunction with the update, staff were also
asked to identify any immediate needs on campus and recommend WA capital project(s)that would
address these needs. As a result of this process,the need for three additional science labs that will move
the current science classrooms out of the portable buildings and into lab space that will provide adequate
equipment, gas and water lab stations was identified as an immediate need. Staff are continuing to work
with Stantec to complete a plan for the campus Facility Master Plan.
On August 13, 2019 the Town Council accepted a$1,000,000.00 donation from an anonymous donor to
be used exclusively for the addition to the Sam and Margaret Lee Arts and Science Center located at 2600
J.T. Ottinger Road. These funds may be used for the following expenses only: architect and engineering
expenses,construction cost and new equipment exclusively for the Sam&Margaret Lee Arts and Science
addition.

addition to the Sam&Margaret Lee Arts and Sciences Center. Outside sources may include but are not
limited to the following: funds raised by Westlake Academy Foundation,private organizations,nonprofit

Inc. for architectural services for the design of the Sam&Margret Lee Arts and Science Center addition.

renderings. Staff will present phase I documents to the Town council for review.

■ 1 1 Project Details
=� PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project includes programming, schematic design, cost
ft4 -
estimating, and marketing package for the addition to the Sam
&Margret Lee Arts&Science Center at Westlake Academy.The
addition will be between approximately 8,S00-17,000 square
feet,and 1 to 2 stories with the possibility of a basement.The
3 main program will consist of a maker space, art room, labs,
I prep areas as well as office and storage.The expansion will be
connected to the main building through a covered accessible
walkway.
u - Additionally we will also explore adding a second story to move
current program from portable buildings into a permanent
y - structure as well as a basement storm shelter. In addition to the
new construction,we will study adding parking to the nearby
site as well as adding stone to existing buildings that are not
completely clad in stone to blend in with the Westlake Academy
vernacular.
PROJECT TEAM
Our firm will be leading a team of other design and construction professionals to provide you with the schmatic
design documents needed for council approval and marketing for a capital campaign. We understand that the
team will be organized as follows!
■ As our client and owner,you will review and approve our work and will provide direction to us regarding
the project program, schedule, and budget. You will also provide us information regarding your site
and building, such as surveys, geotechnical information,and any applicable design standards or deed
restrictions.
■ Our firm will take the lead in the architectural design for the project and will provide interior design and
lighting design. We have not anticipated the need for other consultants at this stage but we will work with
you if we jointly decide other expertise is needed during the course of the project.
■ We have based our proposal on the assumption that we'll bring on a cost estimator to the team to provide
pre-construction expertise in cost estimating,scheduling.

PROGRAMMING PHASE
This initial phase of the work will be dedicated to working with you and your staff to finalize the project's space
needs. During this stage of the project,we will meet with your department heads to understand the basic
requirements, both in terms of space allocation and types of spaces.We will review the current and anticipated
future needs and also seek to understand the types of spaces needed.
Using what we learned as we developed the program,we would next proceed to updating the already developed
options for test fit blocking and stacking diagrams.These updated diagrams would evaluate how the various
uses could fit within the building addition and where in the building each could be located. In fact,these studies
would be used to help us determine the most efficient and usable configuration for the addition.These options
would be diagrammatic in nature and not yet developed to the space plan level of detail.After a review of the
options with you,we would use your input to edit the options to arrive at a mutually agreed option,which could
be used in a subsequent space planning effort.
DELIVERABLES
■ Update to the original test fit and blocking and stacking alternative arrangements for uses
■ Plan showing arrangement options the space allowed
■ Square footage calculations
SCHEDULE, MEETINGS, AND PRESENTATIONS
We anticipate having 6-8 programming meetings total including programming committee and a student
engagement sessions.Two follow up meetings with leadership to confirm the final program. Depending on
scheduling availability and your time for review,we propose completing this work within a 4-S week period.
