WELCOME AND PURPOSE OF THIS HANDBOOK
Welcome to employment with the City of Corcoran!
This handbook has been prepared by the City of Corcoran (also referred to as “the City”)
to provide employees with general information about some of the policies and programs
that affect their employment. It is not intended to be a legal statement of benefits or a
comprehensive explanation of our personnel policies and practices. Its sole function is
to give employees a general understanding of how the City views the employment
relationship and approaches personnel issues. If at any time there is a difference between
a statement in this handbook and source material, such as plan documents, the source
material that is current at the time will take precedence.
It is not possible to anticipate every question that might arise in the course of employment.
Questions about matters not covered should be directed to your direct supervisor or to
Human Resources the City Administrator or the department supervisor. Each Department
HeadsDirector may establish additional departmental rules and procedures which further
the efficient operation of the department.
Employees subject to these policies shall comply with and carry out the provisions of
these policies. Any employee who fails to comply with any of the provisions of these
policies may be subject to disciplinary action in a form that the City deems appropriate,
up to and including dismissal from employment.
Nothing in this handbook, nor any other written or verbal communication, should be
construed as creating a contract for employment or a warranty of benefits for any
particular period of time, nor does this handbook change the "at will" employment
relationship between the City of Corcoran and any of its employees. Employees have the
right to terminate the employment relationship with the City at any time, with or without
notice, for any reason. The City has the same right to terminate the employment
relationship at any time, with or without notice, for any reason not prohibited by law. The
City retains sole discretion to add, delete, or change anything contained in this handbook,
except employment-at-will.
This employee handbook supersedes and replaces any and all previous policies and
related materials made available to the employees of the City of Corcoran. The policies
and programs outlined in this handbook are those presently in effect. It is likely that the
policies and the employment-related benefits and programs of the City will change from
time to time. Although we will periodically update this handbook to keep employees
informed of changes, we may implement changes immediately, without advance
notice.The City reserves the right to modify policies at any time. The City Council may
revise, delete or otherwise change policies, and will make the final determination in
interpreting or applying policies.

BENEFITS
General Benefits Information
In addition to contributing to employees’ benefits, The City of Corcoran contributes
substantial sums toward various government programs that provide further benefits to
employees, such as Social Security (FICA), Workers Compensation Insurance and
Unemployment Compensation. A complete list of current benefits and premium
contributions is found in a Benefits Plan Summary that is updated annually..
No benefit establishes a contract or promise of employment, or of any particular terms,
benefits or duration of employment, nor is intended to modify the at-will nature of anyone’s
employment with the City. Unless otherwise prohibited or required by law, the City
reserves the right to add to, amend, change benefit providers and/or eligibility and
coverage provisions or terminate any benefit at any time, at its sole discretion and without
notice.
MN State Deferred Compensation Plan (MNDCP)
MNDCP is open to all Minnesota public employees. It allows an employee to set aside
a portion of an employee’s income and accumulate it on a tax-deferred basis. That
means less of an employee’s salary is subject to current income tax and an employee’s
savings and investment earnings accumulate tax-deferred until an employee starts
drawing from the Plan at retirement. For further information on this account contact the
City Administrator, or payroll administrator.Human Resources
Cafeteria Benefits Plan
The City provides a cafeteria benefits plan to accommodate the individual and changing
needs of employees. A description of the benefits can be found in the “Benefits Plan
Summary” document. Each eligible employee will be given an annual dollar amount to
purchase core benefits under the cafeteria plan. The City will review its contribution on a
regular basis, usually during the budgeting process. Employees may select options
during an open enrollment period or as allowed by law.
Short-term Disability
Your Short-Term Disability (STD) policy is a City provided benefit offered through a
selected insurance carrier. Employees qualify for short term disability when they are not
able to perform their job duties because of the employee’s personal illness or disability.
While employees may qualify for other types of leaves, employees do not qualify for short-
term disability benefits based upon the illness or disability of another family member.
After a designated waiting period per the contracted insurance provider’s guidelines, the
insurance carrier will pay employee’s pre-disability salary at 60% percent and the
employer will pay the remaining total based on years of service at the following rates: :
• 0-6 years of service: 70%
• 7 + years of service: 100%
53
City of Corcoran Employee Handbook
Effective Month, Day, 2025February 26, 2024 Page 28

coverage in the group insurance plans at their own expense, after they leave their
employment with the organization and/or in certain changes in family status. In addition,
the employee’s dependents may be eligible for insurance continuation, at their own
expense, should they become ineligible for insurance under the employee. Employees
are required to notify the payroll administrator when these situations occur. Employees
who are eligible for insurance continuation will be provided specific information about
availability and cost and should see the City Administrator for more information.

The City offers retirees the opportunity to continue their health insurance coverage at their
own expense.
An employee hired before Feb. 1, 2001, who retires with a combination of years of service
and age totaling eighty-five (85), and having a minimum of fifteen (15) years of service as
a full-time Corcoran employee, shall be entitled to a fifty percent (50%) employer
contribution for the employee’s cost of single hospitalization and medical insurance
premium until said employee reaches the age of sixty-five (65). When multiple plan
options are made available, the lowest premium option will be used as the benchmark for
city contributions.
Wings Credit Union
As a City employee, an employee is eligible to become a member of an employee’s area
Wings Credit Union. This is a type of financial institution that allows members the
opportunity to access lower interest rates for loans, setting up savings bonds, etc.
PERA & Social Security

plan. Social Security and PERA deductions are taken out of the employee’s earnings at
the rate defined by these programs. The City shall contribute to PERA and Social
Security at the rate defined by the programs.
Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ Compensation insurance provides compensation to employees who have a
work-related injury or disease. The benefits include partial wage replacement and full
payment of reasonable medical and rehabilitation costs. In case of death, workers’
compensation benefits are paid to the employee’s dependents. Worker's compensation
benefits and procedures to return to work will be applied according to applicable state
and federal laws.
All employees are required to report any job-related illnesses or injuries to their supervisor
immediately (no matter how minor). If a supervisor is not available and the nature of
injury or illness requires immediate treatment, the employee is to go to the nearest
available medical facility for treatment and, as soon as possible, notify his/her supervisor
of the action taken. In the case of a serious emergency, 911 should be called. If the
injury is not of an emergency nature, but requires medical attention, the employee will
report it to the supervisor and make arrangements for a medical appointment.

Council Meeting:
July 24, 2025
Prepared By:
Ryan Ganner, Human Resources Generalist
Nalisha Williams, Assistant City Administrator
Topic:
Minnesota Paid Leave Administration
Action Required:
Approval
Summary
Minnesota Legislature passed the Paid Leave law in 2023, leading to the implementation of the
Minnesota Paid Leave (MN PL) program. This program provides paid leave benefits for Minnesota
employees. Employers can either participate in the State administered plan or have a third-party carrier
administer a private plan that will be in effect January 1, 2026.
On April 24th, 2025, Council approved Integrity Employee Benefits (insurance broker), to conduct a
request for proposal for third party carriers to administer a private plan. The request for proposal was
sent to 17 carriers and 4 responses were received. MetLife’s premium came in the lowest at .79%,
Hartford is .886%, Madison National is .88%, and Lincoln Financial is 1.21%. The State of MN Plan is
.88%.
The Administration Department proposes outsourcing Minnesota Paid Leave (MN PL) to MetLife, a third-
party carrier that currently administers the City’s dental insurance. Metlife’s MN Paid Leave premium is
lower than the state program (.79% versus .88%). A third-party MN Paid Leave administrator would
provide compliance support, necessary documentation, and would work directly with employees and HR
to facilitate compliant and efficient service of employee leave benefits.
Short-term disability, as well as our ancillary benefits (accident insurance, critical illness insurance,
hospital indemnity insurance) will also be moved over to MetLife. This is beneficial in three ways.
First, a two-year rate guarantee for MN Paid Leave at a rate lower than the state rate. Second, by having
the same carrier for our MN Paid Leave and our short-term disability the claim submittal and approval
process will be much more efficient than it would be with separate carriers. An employee can submit one
leave claim, and the carrier will begin processing the claim for both MN Paid Leave and short-term
disability. The claim process often includes interaction between the employee and the carrier, the carrier
and HR, as well as the carrier and the employee’s medical provider. Having one carrier involved and one
claim to work greatly expedites the process. Lastly, reducing the number of benefit carriers makes it
easier for employees to keep track of which carrier offers a specific benefit.
Financial/Budget
There are several factors to be considered for the City to work with Metlife on MN Paid Leave.
The premium rate for MetLife to administer is .79% of payroll, which is a saving compared to the
.88% rate with the State plan. The premium rate is .79% for two years, there is no rate guarantee
with the state plan. The premium is going to be split 50/50 between employees and the City
(employers are required to pay at least 50% of the premium).
Moving Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity insurances from Cigna to MetLife will be
budget neutral. Premiums will not increase, and employees will receive the same benefits they are
receiving now.
Short-term disability premiums are at an annual cost of $17,000 and by moving to MetLife, the cost
will be $8,600.
56
Options
Approve the MetLife proposal for Minnesota Paid Leave, Short-Term Disability, and Ancillary Benefits.
Recommendation
Approve the MetLife proposal for Minnesota Paid Leave, Short-Term Disability, and Ancillary Benefits.
Council Action
Consider a motion to approve the MetLife proposal for Minnesota Paid Leave, Short-Term Disability, and
Ancillary Benefits.

Council Meeting:

Nalisha Williams, Assistant City Administrator
Topic:
New City Website Vendor
Action Required:
Approval
Summary
For the past six years (2019 implementation), the City of Corcoran has used CivicLive as a website
vendor and maintenance provider, at an annual cost of approximately $2,000. While this has been a
cost-effective solution, the current website has shown significant limitations in functionality, scalability
(mobile view), and user experience.
Current Limitations:
Support Challenges
Over the past several years, staff have encountered persistent challenges with customer support and
communication from the website provider. Technical support requests often involve extended delays,
lack of follow-through, and unclear communication (with some cases taking months to resolve).
Cumbersome Editing
The current platform’s back-end editing process can be inefficient and time-consuming. Editing content,
often involves multiple steps in order to make edits, review content, and publish changes. Formatting and
edits can only be done to a certain point due to the capacity of the program's functionality.
Antiquated Website Design
Websites have evolved over the last decade and continue to have added capability. The current website
is outdated, and the menu options are not as easy to navigate. The current website is in need of a
modern design that resonates with the City’s identity and is user-friendly to residents and visitors.
ADA Requirements
In April 2024, the Department of Justice (DOJ), issued a rule of new technical standards for government
websites and mobile applications under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The current
website does not meet future ADA requirements. Due to limitations from the initial website design and
lack of customer support, becoming fully ADA compliant under our current model would be an extensive
and time-consuming process. It would be more efficient to complete a website redesign with a vendor
that prioritizes and will assist with ADA compliance.
The information below shows the timeline of when state or local governments are required to comply with
this rule:
State and Local Government Size Compliance Date
0 to 49,999 Persons April 26, 2027
Special District Governments April 26, 2027
50,000 or More Persons April 24, 2026

Revize
Staff has met with four government/municipal-oriented vendors to evaluate the options of transitioning to
a new website and new website vendor. Those vendors were Catalis, CivicPlus, Granicus, and Revize.
After completing demos with each of the four vendors and talking with numerous cities across
Minnesota, it was clear that Revize stands out for providing us with the right options, with a modern
design, at the right price, and reliable service.
Revize offers an annual maintenance fee of $3,000 which is lower than the other vendors and is the only
provider that does not impose an annual maintenance fee increase. Additionally, if the city commits to a
five-year contract, Revize includes a full website redesign in year 4 at no extra cost. They also provide
an option to integrate a mass notification system, which would allow residents to opt in to communication
from the city through email and text alerts. The current website is not optimized for mobile use - Revize
will offer a user-friendly mobile experience as more people access content on their phones.
Implementation of a new website may take up to 12 months.
Financial/Budget
The one-time implementation fee for the website is $8,500 – this will be included in the 2026 budget. The
annual maintenance fees are:
Year 1: $3,000
Year 2: $3,000
Year 3: $3,000
Year 4: $3,000
Year 5: $3,000
Options
Approve the Revize proposal and authorize staff to include $11,500 in the 2026 budget for the website
transition.
Recommendation
Approve the Revize proposal and authorize staff to include $11,500 in the 2026 budget for the website
transition.
Council Action
Authorize staff to execute the website proposal with Revize and include $11,500 in the 2026 budget for
website implementation.

Project Goals
The following list details this project’s goals:
Visually Appealing
Clients have told us that Revize seems to have the best creative design team than most other
county government website designers. We love creating a rebranding style, non-profit website
design with a more eye catching, beautiful website appeal to help them increase
communication with their constituents and create new interest with prospective constituents
and their families. Because of that, Revize has been asked to build websites for the Tourism
industry as well.
Easy to Find Content
Revize conducted a Resident Web Visitor Usability Study with 9 municipalities. As a result, we
already know how a resident or web visitor wants to navigate their county website and get
organizational information in their easy to reach manner. They told us that they want to get to
any web page in One Click right from the Home Page, no matter how many levels the web
page was buried. Revize created a navigation system that does just that and our clients love it.
We will be happy to demonstrate it to you!
Increase Partner Engagement and Follow-Up
Please refer to our list of website features and you will see a plethora of features specifically to
allow for interactivity with your residents, partners and all constituents, including web forms for
responses, feedback, online payments, home page alerts, etc. We also design the website with
“Calls to Action” in mind to inspire web visitors to participate in your organization.
Increase Search Engine Visibility
Every Revize web page is programed to allow 100% of every web page content to be indexed
by all the popular Search Engines. We also allow non-technical Editors access each web page’s
Meta Data so you can not only increase your web presence, but also contour the search so if
someone types a question in the Bing or Google Search box, it will try to pull them to the web
page on your new website with the ANSWER! Not your home page.
Seamless Integration with Social Media
Revize will add Social Media icons and Social Media integration to your website’s News Center
as well as create a social media Wall or a clean looking Social Media Center to show off your
latest social media posts.
Mobile- and User-Friendly
Your new website should be usable on any and all devices including phones, tablets and PCs.
Revize has made Responsive Website Designs a website standard for over 8 years. Because of
that, we add in additional Responsive Programming to take advantage of the new mobile
62
Revize Websites Proposal

phone technologies like the new High-Definition Video Cards to make your web visitors’ website
experience more enjoyable and smoother.
Easy to Update Content
The Revize CMS non-technical website editing solution has a 25-year maturity and was written for
non-technical editors to edit the website in an easy common-sense manner through a
methodology called In-Page Editing or Live-Page Editing.
Clients have indicated that if you know how to read, and know about 5% of Microsoft Word, you
should be able to edit a Revize Non-profit Website (without training). Allow us to give you a
demonstration.
ADA Compliant Website
Revize has been building ADA compliant websites for the last two years. In Florida, every county
and municipality are being sued and taken to court for not meeting ADA compliant. So far, no
fines have been given on any Revize website – Revize has 83 clients in Florida. Your new website
will adhere to the new WCAG 2.1 AA requirements and Section 508. We will also train your
content editors how to keep it ADA compliant when writing content. With your approval, Revize
will also install an ADA Accessibly Widget, free of charge. This widget brings the ADA software for
reading and resizing text, change color contrasts, etc. on the fly for the vision impaired and
disabled web visitor.
Example – Double Click on the Man Icon in the lower right corner to see it in action:
https://www.largo.com/facilities_directory/index.php
Cyber-Security
Revize has not had any website security intrusions for over 9 years. Revize has partnered with
Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Service Platform (GCP) for its LIVE WEB server
hosting infrastructure needs. Both AWS and GCP are industry leaders in high availability cloud
server architecture, both server farm infrastructure is highly secured, scalable, and redundant for
24/7/365 availability. Snapshot/Mirror Image backups of all of our cloud servers guarantees 100%
data protection and recovery in case of any disaster. Also, Revize has dedicated CMS servers in
two state-of-the-art physical data centers located in Chicago and Detroit. Onsite/Offsite data
backups of all our dedicated servers are scheduled nightly with R1Soft backup service.
Additionally, Revize utilizes multiple Tier 1 bandwidth providers such as Level 3, Wiltel, and
Cogent for redundancy and continuous connectivity. These procedures provide our clients with
up to 500Mbps of fast fiber optic up-stream connectivity. Revize can also host both your Internet
and Intranet websites; your Intranet is secure and only accessible by authorized users through a
login system.

Thank you for considering Revize as your web development partner. For over two decades,
Revize has been a leader in providing high quality, non-profit & government-compliant web
solutions. Located in Troy, Michigan we have launched hundreds of non-profit and government
websites nationwide, including over 300 right here in Michigan, a myriad of industry awards and
hundreds of satisfied clients stand as testament to the quality and value of our work. Every
member of the Revize team understands that your website is more than a website. It’s a
valuable resource that can help you build a better community.
Regarding the actual design and build of your new website, and ongoing hosting and support,
Revize has been doing this for over 25 years. What you need to know is that over the last 6
months there's been an increase of hacking of government agency websites by 394%,
especially if they're using what's called free software, open-source software like WordPress and
Drupal. Revize does not use that technology. We have a secure, refined content management
system developed specifically for non-profit and government class organizations like yourself for
use by non-technical individuals to edit the website easily. Revize has a full proof, secure hosting
environment that so far has been bulletproof against hackers for over 8 years. We have 3
redundant Server Farms across the whole United States and multiple backups of all the
information.
We have worked hard to establish a reputation for creating online community websites that
engage, inform, and increase participation of your community. With our help, your community’s
website can serve your residents better, inspire them more, and get them actively involved in
your municipal government. Please contact me if you have any questions at all.

Company Profile
Revize Software Systems was founded in June, 1995 as a "new media" development
company specializing in the creation of interactive web design, multimedia content
delivered on CD-ROM, and video production. Since then, Revize has made an
unsurpassed name for itself in the web/internet industry as THE master of government
website design, which remains our specialty. We now boast more than 3,300 clients in
North America and have created acclaimed website designs for hundreds of
municipalities and counties, as well as government departments and agencies. In
September, 1996 as the Internet was becoming a world-wide reality, Revize began
developing a Web Content Management System (CMS) for the government market to
enable non-technical contributors to quickly and easily update content on their
websites. The result was the creation of our state-of-the-art Revize Government CMS.
Our mission has always been to enhance the communications of government
organizations nationwide with their varied and valued audiences.
Focused exclusively on creative web design, government web apps and content
management technologies, Revize continues to invest in its technology, continually
adding new capabilities and features that manifest our vision. While many
municipalities choose Revize to develop and cost-effectively manage their website
content, clients also use Revize as an information-sharing platform. Our suite of Revize
Government web-based solutions has proven valuable as a powerful technology that
empowers clients to build and maintain sophisticated web sites, all while using the
Internet and internal Intranets/Extranets to acquire, analyze, process, summarize and
share information – ensuring that the right people always have the right information at
the right time

https://morrowcountyohio.gov

informational website brings together an amazing design with a full suite of web apps to
engage the residents they serve. Smooth transitions from the home page to interior
pages of this website allow users to find exactly what they are looking for easily. Not

Montgomery County, Texas
www.mctx.org
Montgomery County is a County of over 570,000 residents about 36 miles north of
Houston, Texas. Montgomery County has many departments with varying levels of
needs on the website. The success of any county website relies on balancing these
departmental needs, whilst showcasing a unified vision. In this website, we did just that.
While respecting the County’s history, we also designed the site to towards innovation.
Users will notice that they can easily find the most important online services without
having to search through line after line of text. Also, the Revize HR application was
added into this website for a seamless hiring process. All 3rd party applications are
integrated in a way that was right for each department. This website is the perfect mix
of functionality and design!

Isle of Wight County is a longtime Revize client. This website was recently redesigned in
2020 to highlight all of what the county has to offer. The design does not overburden
the user with too much content. It separates that content into different focus areas. This
lets the residents get information in a way that is much more of an experience. The
straightforward news and events feature images that promote click-through. With the
Revize CMS this County is able to quickly and easily update the website in just a few

Tipton County, Tennessee
County Design Featuring a Full Width Video
www.tiptonco.com
Tipton County wanted a design unlike any County out there. With this design we
pushed the limit of what people think when they see a county website. We integrated a
video that plays on the full width homepage. Using video in this manner increases
resident return visits by 59% and 93% of first-time visitors watch the entire video. In
addition, this site features more scrolling than you may notice on more traditional
websites. That is a good thing! Users are now, more than ever, viewing websites on their
hand-held devices. Some estimates say this is as high as 60% of all internet usage! With
more scrolling we are able to give the user a lot of information, without having to
squeeze it into such a small space. We use images, icons, and interactive features to
create an experience for the user. This type of design also allows us to extend the
County’s brand in a way that is unmatched in the industry!

Citrus County, Florida
www.citrusbocc.com
Citrus County is a beautiful county in Florida with something to offer everyone. We
wanted to make sure their new design was something special for their residents to use
on a daily basis. We had a design discovery meeting going over the designs they felt
would show off their county in the best light. We used our Resident Usability study results
to lay out the Home Page where a resident can get anywhere on the website in one
click in a majority of all cases. Their staff was with us every step of the way. Inner pages
are flexible to allow departments to have dedicated pages with a cohesive feel across
all pages. This website is an elite representation of the power and beauty of the Revize
process.

The City of Largo, Florida
www.largo.com
The City of Largo, Florida is a clear example of how we adapt to our clients’ needs and
custom tailor our process. During our discovery meeting, we determined that, in
addition to the city website, there were some overarching goals of tourism, downtown
development, performing arts center, and increasing the library’s presence online.
Therefore, instead of “shoehorning” those departments in the main City website, we
built a new City website, DDA website, Performing Arts Center website, and Library
website, all with a similar brand but a unique design. Our focus is to help achieve the
goals of our clients. While we cannot guarantee this type of addition, we are always
looking for ways to deliver more than our clients expect!

are industry leaders in high availability cloud server architecture, both server farm
infrastructure is highly secured, scalable, and redundant for 24/7/365 availability.
Snapshot/Mirror Image backups of all our cloud servers guarantees 100% data
protection and recovery in case of any disaster. Also, Revize has dedicated CMS
servers in two state-of-the-art physical data centers located in Chicago and Detroit.

Revize technology architecture physically separates the CMS from the website to
provide another layer of redundancy/security. With this model, we keep an up-to-the-
minute exact duplicate of your website in the event your site must be restored. Revize
support staff will simply republish your site within a guaranteed two hours (as opposed to
several hours or days’ time frame our competitors offer).

accessible by authorized users through a login system.

Decision
1. Request
This is a City-initiated Comprehensive Plan Amendment necessary to complete park
improvements at Heritage Park (previously named “City Park”), including a new park
building, located at 20400 and 20200 County Road 50.
2. Context
Background
The City was donated 19.3 acres of park land in 1972 from the Van Lithe family. Today,
this is one of two parcels that make up Heritage Park with the western parcel (59.95
acres) purchased by the City in 2018 from the Rockford School District. Heritage Park is
the largest park within the City and currently hosts all recreational programming, such
as youth soccer and baseball.
Figure 1 Schematic of Existing Heritage Park Layout
96
Page 2 of 6
Today, the park contains several amenities (many of which were developed as a labor
of love by local Corcoran residents): 6 baseball fields, 4 t-ball fields, 1 multi-use field, 4
parking areas, a playground (last replaced in 2000), tennis courts (partially removed in
2024), a picnic shelter, two outdoor ice rinks, and a warming house. The City has
planned significant improvements to update and expand amenities within Heritage Park
for several years. Design efforts to move forward with the first phase of this vision
commenced in 2024.
A site plan and variance for the remaster project was approved by City Council on May
22, 2025. As a part of this project there will be utilities brought through the park site for
the new park building (located on the western parcel) and irrigation. A future phase of
the park project may also include a splashpad, also on the western side of the park,
which would require this infrastructure. On June 23rd, the City Council voted to accept
bids received for the park remaster to move forward with the construction of the project .
Additionally, City Council voted to rename the park from City Park to Heritage Park.
Zoning and Land Use
The two properties that comprise the project site are guided for Parks/Open Space and
are zoned Public / Institutional (P-I). The site is within the Metropolitan Urban Service
Area (MUSA). The report for the site plan and variance incorrectly stated that the
entirety of the Heritage Park site was located within Phase 1 (the current stage,
projected for 2020-2025) of the 2040 Staging Plan. The eastern side of Heritage Park is
located within Phase 1, but the western side is in Phase 3 of the staging plan, projected
for 2030-2035.

Natural Characteristics of The Site
A tributary of the South Fork Rush Creek runs through both parcels of City Park. The
2040 Comprehensive Plan’s Natural Resource Inventory Areas map reflects a Wet
Prairie on the southwest with some Floodplain Forest that follows most of the creek. A
wetland delineation was completed on this property and finalized in October 2024. This
process confirmed two wetlands on the southwest portion of the site (overlapping the
wet prairie shown on the Natural Resources map) and a pond near the middle of the
eastern parcel.
Planning Commission Review
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter during the regular
meeting on July 8, 2025. No one participated in the public hearing. The Planning
Commission unanimously recommended approval (4-0; Commissioner Lind absent) of
the Comprehensive Plan Amendment.
3. Analysis
98
Page 4 of 6
Staff reviewed the request for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning
Ordinance, other City Code requirements, and City policies. The City Engineer has
been actively involved in the design of the project and will continue to ensure all of the
City’s engineering standards are satisfied. There were no Public Safety comments on
the Comprehensive Plan Amendment portion of the project.
A. Level of Discretion in Decision-Making
The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving or denying a
Comprehensive Plan Amendment request. The Comprehensive Plan is the City’s long-
range planning tool that indicates what type of development should occur on all land
within the City. It is the City’s plan for directing future development and growth. The City
Council may guide property as it deems necessary to protect and promote the general
health, safety, and welfare of the community.
B. Comprehensive Plan Amendment
If the proposed amendment is approved, the western park parcel will be moved up to
Phase 1 (2020-2025) in the 2040 Staging Plan. The 2040 Staging Plan reflects
anticipated timeline of sewer service for areas located where regional interceptors from
adjacent communities will be extended. The Staging Plan provides anticipated growth in
5-year increments, which is information requested by the Metropolitan Council as part of
the Comprehensive Plan process. The plan creates an orderly, logical growth pattern
based on development patterns and availability of infrastructure.
Figure 3 Heritage Park Remaster Site Plan
99
Page 5 of 6
The Comprehensive Plan is a living document. When the City finds evidence to support
a change in the plan, the City Council has the discretion to make a change. The City
should consider the following issues when reviewing a Comprehensive Plan
Amendment request:
• Evidence demonstrating the reason(s) that the plan should be changed,
including, but not limited to, whether new information has become available since
the Comprehensive Plan was adopted that supports re -examination of the plan,
or that existing or proposed development offers new opportunities or constraints
that were not previously considered by the plan.
• Whether or not the change is needed to allow reasonable development of the
site.
• The relationship of the proposed amendment to the supply and demand for
particular land uses within the City and the immediate vicinity of the site.
• A demonstration that the proposed amendment has merit beyond the interests of
the proponent.
• The possible impacts of the amendment on all specific elements of the
Comprehensive Plan as may be applicable, including but not limited to:
o Transportation;
o Sanitary sewer, including existing and proposed sanitary sewer flows as
compared to the adopted plan;
o Housing, including the extent to which the proposal contributes to the
City’s adopted housing goals;
o Surface water, including compliance with the City’s goals for water quality
as well as water quantity management;
o Water supply;
o Parks and open space; and
o Consideration of the impact of the proposed amendment upon current and
future special assessments and utility area changes, future property tax
assessments or other fiscal impacts upon the City.
Since the eastern side of the parcel is located in Phase 1, staff believe the amendment
is consistent with the overall sewer service anticipated for Heritage Park. Since the
creation of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, the City acquired the western parcel that was
previously owned by Rockford School District. Utilizing the western parcel for the park
building and the eventual splashpad allows for an enhanced site that enables more
amenities for the public’s use at the City’s largest park.
The proposed amendment will support the City in its endeavor to accomplish the
following goals outlined in the Parks and Trails Chapter of the 2040 Comprehensive
Plan:
- Goal 1: To implement this Parks and Trails Plan based on the needs of Corcoran
residents and park system patrons.
- Goal 3: To develop a park system the public values and visits.
100
Page 6 of 6
-Goal 4: To develop a system of parks and trails, with a variety of active and
passive uses, that reflect the special character of the City, its history, and natural
resources.
4. Recommendation
The Planning Commission and staff recommend approval of Resolution 2025-76
approving the amendment to the Staging Plan of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan to
reclassify the western parcel of Heritage Park from Phase 3 to Phase 1. The proposed
amendment is consistent with the Site Plan approved by the City in May and will allow
for reasonable development to the site while providing Corcoran residents and visitors
with enhanced recreational amenities.

Memo
To: Kevin Mattson, City Engineer, PW
Director
From: Steve Hegland, PE
Project/File: 193807433 Date: July 16, 2025
Subject: Request for Authorization to Bid – Horseshoe Trail Watermain Extension
Council Action Requested
We are requesting that the City Council review and accept the plans and specifications for the Horseshoe
Trail Watermain Extension plans as presented. Attached to this memo are select plan sheets from the
project as well as the advertisement for bid.
Project Description
As part of the Tavera Development, an offsite watermain loop was required ensure that the northwestern
portion of the development had a looped water connection. The looped water connection ensure two points
for water to feed to the homes which helps provide better water service as well as fire protection.
The looped watermain is proposed to connect to a stub installed with the Tavera 4th Addition and extend
down Trail Lane to the intersection of Horseshoe Trail where it will then extend west to the 7th Addition
entrance. The majority of the watermain will be directionally drilled to avoid interruptions to the
neighborhood with some excavations necessary in the Right of Way and easements for fittings, bend and
hydrants.
Hydrants will be added to the watermain along Trail Lane to ensure the system can be properly maintained
however the existing residential properties will not be connected to the water system. If the residents
wanted to connect in the future, that process would need to be considered by the City which would likely
require extending sanitary sewer to the area as well.
Estimated Project Costs
The Engineers Opinion of Probable Costs are $341,442.00. with the detailed OPC attached to this memo.
As this project is a requirement of the Tavera Development, the developer is responsible for the project
costs. The Developer currently has a letter of credit for this work and once the project is bid, the developer
is required to swap out the letter of credit for cash prior to execution of the contracts for the project.

Topic:
Call Assessment Hearing - Chisholm Trail
Improvements Project
Action Required:
Approval
Summary
On May 8th, 2025 a Public Hearing was held for the Chisholm Trail Improvements Project and the City
Council approved Resolution 2025-40 Ordering the Improvement for the Chisholm Trail Improvement
Project and Authorize staff to proceed with plans and specifications.
The next step in the process is to call for the Assessment Hearing of the Chisholm Trail Improvements
project.
The proposed assessment roll has not changed.
Per policy, the payment can be made in full or paid over a term not to exceed 20 years with interest. The
interest rate shall be one percent more than the rate of the bonds sold for the specific project. If no bonds
were sold, the interest rate shall be set using the current bond market. Staff recommends utilizing the
last bond sale from the City which has a true interest rate of 3.41%. This means that the interest rate for
the project would be 4.41%. Staff recommends a term of 10 years.
Financial/Budget
The estimated cost of the project is $421,725.60 with proposed assessments in the amount of
$81,000.00. This results in an estimated $340,725.60 city contribution. That amount as well as the initial
coverage of assessments will need to be paid out of the 2025 General Budget Asphalt Maintenance line
item and the Pavement Management Fund.
Options
1. Approve the Resolution 2025-77 Calling for Assessment Hearing of Chisholm Trail Improvements
project.
2. Send back to staff for further review.
3. Decline.
Recommendation
Approve the Resolution 2025-77 Calling for Assessment Hearing of Chisholm Trail Improvements
project.
Council Action
Consider a motion to approve the Resolution 2025-77 Calling for Assessment Hearing of Chisholm Trail
Improvements project.

Memo
To: Jessica Christensen Buck, Parks and
Recreation Manager
From: Steve Hegland, PE
Project/File: 193807229 Date: July 16, 2025
Subject: Request to approve Geotechnical Services – City Park Improvements
Council Action Requested
We are requesting that the City Council review and award the site geotechnical services contract to Haugo
Geotechnical Services for the City Park Project.
Project Description
For the recently approved City Park Project, staff have requested quotes for geotechnical testing services
for the construction project. This work would be testing the material compaction, concrete and bituminous
materials to ensure the products and material placement meet the required project specifications.
Staff did extend the request for quotes to four geotechnical firms with only two providing quotes for the
project. One of the firms provided pricing to perform the testing services on the building as well. Due to the
specialized nature of those inspections, we have recommended to the project architects that they should
obtain separate quotes for that the City would want to review separately.
Quotes Received
As noted the City extended a request for quotes to four firms with only Independent Testing Technologies
and Haugo Geotechnical providing quotes to the City. Below is a summary of the quotes provided.
Company Service Quote
Haugo Geotechnical Services $9,342
Independent Testing Technologies $12,600
Based on the quotes provided we would recommend awarding the Geotechnical Services contract to
Haugo Geotechnical at the estimated cost of $9,342. The geotechnical contracts are on a unit price basis
so the final contract would be based on the actual testing services provided.

Re: Proposal for Construction Materials Testing, Corcoran City Park Improvements, Corcoran, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Kroeze;
We are pleased to present this cost estimate for the construction materials testing and special inspections during the
City Park Improvements project in Corcoran, MN It is our understanding the project will consist of utility installation,
new trails, parking lot and a new slab on grade building in the existing City Park. The park building will consist of
concrete footings, masonry foundation walls, and wood framing.
To aid in preparing this proposal we were provided with a Request for Proposal and the Project Manual dated July 1,
2025 prepared by Stantec. Our fees were based on the bid quantities and 2023 MnDOT Schedule of Materials
Control. The building quote was based on the provided special inspection schedule.
Scope of Services
Qualified technicians will perform the proposed field tests under the direction of a licensed professional engineer.
Our services will be performed on an as-needed basis as scheduled by you or your authorized representative.
Based on a review of available information and discussions with you, our services will be limited to the following
tasks.
• If requested, observe parking lot subgrade excavation and verify suitability of soils for road support.
• Observe proof rolls of the parking subgrade.
• Perform compaction testing on the embankment and utility backfill soils.
• Perform MnDOT DCPs on the aggregate base.
• Collect soil samples for laboratory proctors and gradations.
• Observe concrete and masonry reinforcement.
• Observe structural steel bolting.
• Observe wood framing.
• Observe fire proofing.
• Sample and test the fresh concrete for slump, temperature and air content.
• Prepare concrete test cylinders and provide compressive strength test results.
• Observe masonry construction.
• Sample and test masonry grout for slump, temperature, and compressive strength.
• Test masonry block prism for compressive strength.
• Provide laboratory bituminous testing, including asphalt content, gradation and air voids.
• Provide management services including review of field reports and communication with project team
members.
122
Cost
We will provide the above-mentioned continued services for an estimated fee of $19,205. The project estimate,
attached, provides a summary of the estimated hourly and unit rates associated with our scope of services. Unit
rates for environmental soil testing are also included, if needed.
Since our services are directly controlled by the schedule of others the actual cost of our services may vary from this
estimate. The cost of our services will be based on the actual hours and/or units tested for the project.
Our services will be provided over several invoicing periods. We will submit partial progress invoices as the project
proceeds. Our invoices will be payable upon receipt in accordance with our attached General Conditions.

City Council Meeting:
July 24, 2025
Prepared By:
Natalie Davis McKeown
Topic:
Heather Meadows 3rd Addition
Open Space & Preservation (OS&P) Final Plat
(PIDs 05-119-23-31-0001; 05-119-23-32-0001; 08-119-23-

(City File No. 24-032)
Action Required:
Decision
1. Request
The applicant, Markus Lee of
ML Unlimited LLC, requests
the City Council reconsider
the buffer zone requirement
within the approvals for
Heather Meadows 3rd
Addition, an OS&P plat that
received final plat approval in
September 2024. The project
is located near Oakdale Drive
and Heather Lane. The final
plat approved 12 buildable
lots and 44.8 acres of open
space preserved as farmland
in two outlots.
2. Background
The City Council approved
the preliminary plat for this
project at their meeting on
June 27, 2024, including the
following:
1. A variance from OS&P
buffer requirements for Lot 1, Block 4 and Lot 1, Block 5 along Oakdale Drive.
Figure 1 Site Location
129
Page 2 of 7
a. A buffer to the extent possible with the existing structures was required to
mitigate the impact of
approving the variance.
2. A variance to allow a 91’
setback for an agricultural
building.
a. A planted buffer within
the 91’ setback was
required to mitigate the
impact of approving the
variance.
The City Council approved the final
plat for Heather Meadows 3rd Addition
on September 26, 2024. On June 12,
2025, the City Council considered
requests from the applicant to make
changes to the approvals, specifically
required language for the outlot
covenants and the requirement for
native grasses within the buffer zone.
The Council upheld the language for
the covenants, but provided the
following direction to the applicant
and staff regarding the buffer zone on
Lot 1, Block 4 and Lot 1, Block 5:
- No farming within the buffer
zone.
- “Some” native grasses within
the buffer zone was determined
to be appropriate. “Some” was defined as 3% of the buffer zone area.
- No native grasses are required to be planted within the right-of-way along Oakdale.
- The Council asked the applicant to clarify what is currently planted within the
“farmed areas” of the buffer zone, including the species and size.
- The shown plantings in the plan presented on June 12, 2025, qualified as “thickly”
planted.
- The Council asked for the item to be brought back to the July 24th meeting for
review and approval.
3. Analysis
Section 940.050, Subd. 1 (D)(7) states the following:
Figure 2 Preliminary Plat
130
Page 3 of 7
A buffer zone of at least 100 feet shall be provided at the perimeter of the
developed area of the site abutting public streets. The buffer zone shall be thickly
planted with native grasses, shrubs, and trees to minimize land use conflicts.
This standard was a requirement for the residential lots abutting Oakdale Drive, both of
which contained existing structures within the 100’ buffer area. The City Council granted
a variance to allow the structures to remain; however, the following condition was
imposed to address the impact on granting the variance:
The applicant must revise the landscaping plan to plant the required buffer on Lot
1, Block 4 and Lot 1, Block 5, where such buffer will not conflict with existing
structures.
Additionally, the City also granted a variance from the 100’ setback required for
agricultural structure from the property line adjacent to Oakdale Drive, allowing an
existing building to remain with a setback of 91’. The following condition was imposed to
address the impact on granting the variance:
Where it will not create a conflict with the building, the 91’ setback should be
planted with the required buffer yard required for the open space and
preservation plat to provide screening along Oakdale Drive.
As noted above, the City Council determined a reasonable amount of native grasses to
require within the front yards for the two existing homes was 3% of the buffer zone area.
The applicant submitted a new native planting exhibit on June 24th to reflect this
standard. However, the area shown to be planted with native grasses is in Outlot A
when the buffer zone is required to be located on Lot 1, Block 4 and Lot 1, Block 5.
131
Page 4 of 7
Additionally, the updated native planting exhibit continues to show a farm field within the
required buffer zone for Lot 1, Block 5, but Council determined there should be no
farming within the required buffer zone. This means the square footage calculations
provided on the exhibit are not accurate (total buffer zone area of 59,967 sq. ft. with
1,799 sq. ft. of native grasses required at 3% of the buffer zone area). Staff estimates
the square footage for the buffer zone as follows:
Lot Buffer Zone Area 3% Native Grasses
Lot 1, Block 4 49,253.13 sq. ft. 1,477.59 sq. ft.
Lot 1, Block 5 31,289.74 sq. ft. 938.69 sq. ft.
Total 80,542.87 sq. ft. 2,416.28 sq. ft.
Staff recommend the native planting exhibit be updated so that Lot 1, Block 4 and Lot 1,
Block 5 contain their respective percentage of native grasses. The provided resolution
reflects this requirement.
Staff completed a site visit with the applicant on June 24th to determine what is currently
planted within the buffer zone area. The applicant followed up with tree counts,
estimated sizes, and aerial images of the site taken from his drone. The purpose of this
information was to evaluate compliance with the following performance standards within
City Code:
- Section 1060.070, Subd. 2 (D):
Minimum Size Requirements. All plants must at least equal the following
minimum size:
Table 1 – Minimum Plant Size Requirements
Potted/Bare Root or Balled and
Burlapped
Shade Trees (overstory) 2.5-inch diameter
Ornamental Trees (understory) 1.5-inch diameter
Evergreen Trees (overstory) 4-6 feet high
Tall Shrubs and Hedge Material
(deciduous or coniferous)
3-4 feet high
- Section 1060.070, Subd. 2(G)(5):
No more than 33 percent of the required number of trees shall be of one species.
The relatively newly planted trees within the buffer zone are summarized as follows:

In addition to the trees noted in the above table, staff confirmed 20 Arborvitae shrubs
were planted as part of the required buffer zone plantings which appeared to satisfy the
minimum size requirement of 3’ in height.
133
Page 6 of 7
Additional flexibility will be required for the size of trees at the time of planting with some
of the overstory coniferous trees currently estimated at 2’ in height where 4’ is required
and some of the overstory deciduous trees currently estimated at ¼” diameter where
2.5” diameter is required. Staff included language in the provided resolution that allows
for these size deviations within the areas previously planted as part of the farming
operation on the property.
Staff noted that some of the trees in the farmed areas did not make it over the last year,
and it also seems reasonable that up to half of the trees in the farmed area be allowed
to be removed in the future as there is concern the area will become too crowded once
the trees reach maturity. This would reduce the “required” planting numbers to as
follows:
Tree Species Tree Count
Honeylocust
(overstory)

Crabapple
(understory)
2
White Pine
(overstory)

35
Total 100
Additionally, 10 new overstory trees will be provided between the 10 new lots for the
overall development. The landscape plan for the new lots identifies the following
species: Autumn Blaze, Honeylocust, Hackberry, or Autumn Gold Ginkgo. With these
trees factored in, the development will not have a tree species that exceeds 33% of the
required number of trees. No additional flexibility is required, but the provided resolution
documents the required number of trees.
4. Recommendation
Staff recommend approval of Resolution 2025-63 Approving Revisions to Variance
Resolution. The City Council can approve the included revision resolution as drafted or
propose alternative language/deviations.

Narrative
Native Planting Along Oakdale Drive
We request to eliminate all Native grass plantings from the Buffer zone. We also request to leave the
buffer zone exactly the way it presently is. It is unreasonable to require Native grasses to grow in the
yard of either properties (22901 Oakdale Drive and 22925 Oakdale Drive). The trees and shrubs
required in the planting exhibit have already been planted and are posing no issues. According to
city code, the Purpose for the Buffer zone requirement is to Minimize land use conflicts and we do
not feel there is any conflict. There are two highlighted areas on the native planting exhibit that are
currently planted in trees to be harvested at a later date and we feel that there is no reason to
remove the existing trees only to plant native grass. These areas have good soil conditions very well
suited for farming. These are both existing homesites that are not causing any eye sore from
Oakdale drive. The developed area will not be visible from Oakdale drive even without planting the
native grasses.

UPDATED/ADDED on 7/23/25
BKV is identified as the preferred consultant to complete Corcoran’s Space/Needs Analysis for city
facilities for several reasons spelled out according to the evaluation criteria identified in the RFP.
1. Past record of experience and performance of similar projects, including references (20%)
BKV is a nationally recognized firm that came to the table with subconsultants Oertel Architects, and
Kraus Anderson. Their collective breadth of experience in completing similar assessments and analysis
for other cities is unmatched (200 listed). The submission outlined details of similar projects with
Roseville, South St Paul, Golden Valley, Red Wing, Buffalo, Fridley, Brooklyn Center, Rosemount, and
Orono. City Administrator Tobin also spoke with the Chanhassen City Administrator to discuss BKV’s
work on Chanhassen’s Civic Campus construction, as well as their Community Center planning.
2. Qualifications of staff assigned to the project, including commitment to this project (10%):
The five personnel on this project attended the interview to include: Paul Michell (BKV - Partner-in-
Charge); Michael Healy (BKV - Project Manager/Public Safety Planner); Kelly Naylor (BKV - City Hall
Planner/Interior Designer); Andrew Cooper (Oertel Architects – Maintenance Planner); Mauri Solomon
(Kraus Anderson – Facility Assessment Manager).
3. Project Understanding and Work Plan, including schedule (30%):
Clear understanding of the project with a work plan that offered the most engagement opportunities (8
total) – they call “work shops”. Each work shop has clear focus to ensure the right stakeholders are
participating and the necessary data is provided. BKV offers deliverables in their process that were not
offered by other consultants that will assist the City as helpful tools that when maintained/updated will
provide important data impacting future projects and decisions.
4. Fee (40%):
BKV’s fee of $25,960 was the lowest of the 4 consultants interviewed and second lowest of the 12
proposals submitted.
Staff recommends that City Council authorize entering into agreement with BKV to complete the Space
Needs Analysis per the specifics laid out in the RFP.
Financial/Budget
The "Space Needs Assessment" is the begins the process to identify city facility requirements to include:
assessment of needs and assets, engagement of stakeholders and development of plans, and
refinement to adoption of final plans that meet City Facilities requirements. Expenses for the entire
process were projected in the $300,000 in the 2025A Bond spend plan.
Options
1. Authorize staff to move forward with engagement of BKV to conduct the space needs assessment for
city facilities.
151
2. Provide staff other direction.

A. Project Summary. The City of Corcoran owns and operates three facilities of various ages and
also owns property at different geographic locations around the City. Based on varying age and
condition of the facilities, along with the current and future needs of the City, a facilities space
needs planning study (the “Study”) is being sought to determine feasible options and help guide
decision making by the City Council. The completed Study is the first integral phase of what is
anticipated to be three phases for this city facilities initiative:
• Phase I: Facilities space needs planning study
• Phase II: Public engagement, site designs, communication plan, refined financial plan
• Phase III: Construction documents, bidding, construction management, project
closeout
II. PROJECT INFORMATION
153
B. Project Scope. The objective of the Study is to develop options, and the associated costs of
those options, on how the city could plan for its facilities now and into the future. The
specific properties anticipated to be included in this study are indicated below, but the
breadth of the investigation will vary with each property. The Study is required to be
completed by the end of October 2025. It’s not anticipated to have a robust public
outreach or engagement campaign as part of the Study, but engagement with city staff, the
City Council and key stakeholders will be needed.
The selected firm shall assess each property to prepare a summary that provides a baseline
needs analysis, the general condition, operational efficiency, and a listing of factors that may
impact its future use. The Study shall not include in-depth structural, utility, IT, code
compliance, etc., but assessments should include enough information to give an overview of
operating costs, potential major replacements, deficiencies, use of space, potential for
expansion and remaining service life. The city will provide existing building/site plans and
other available records to the consultant in electronic (pdf) format. The firm selected shall
meet with key staff to obtain feedback about current use, constraints, future needs, etc.
The city would generally like to know what feasible options exist for the construction of
new facilities compared to investment in existing facilities. The feasibility of these options
shall include, but not be limited to:
• Cost
• Efficient use of space and access
- Space planning shall be based on projected growth in the 2040 Comp Plan
• Sustainability and assessment of current assets
• Adherence to Strategic Priorities
• Levels of service for the public
• Land availability
• Partnerships with stakeholders
• Safety, Security, Code compliance, and Employee Wellness

RE: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
CORCORAN SPACE NEEDS ANALYSIS FOR CITY FACLITIES
Dear Mr. Tobin and Selection Committee:
On behalf of the BKV Group team, we appreciate this opportunity to submit our proposal to lead study services for your civic facilities. BKV
Group was founded in 1978 under the principle that government architects should put the best interests of the citizens above their own. Our
core belief is that architecture has a profound responsibility to the community – regardless of the project type, our duty is to always enhance
the economic, aesthetic, social, and environmental context of the communities we work in.
Over forty-five years later, this vision has not changed. Today, we provide our government clients with superior customer service by adopting
the client’s goals and values as our own, enabling transparent decision making, committing to responsible spending of public dollars, and
being passionate about the success of the communities for whom we work. We take pride in our history of public projects - from assessments
and planning through design and construction. These important projects have been a core part of BKV Group’s holistic architecture and
engineering practice for decades. We understand and value the role civic services play in supporting a high quality of life for residents, and
we bring a deep knowledge of how thoughtful planning and design facilitates effective and efficient operations.
We have brought a team designed to respond to the many facets of this project. We understand that the first phase is to provide Corcoran
with an informed, feasible, and fiscally responsible plan for investment in your facilities. The study and planning portion of the project will
be rooted in standards for your project types but also in what makes Corcoran a unique community with unique needs. Should the project
advance into phase two or three, our holistic team has the capabilities and availability to advance your project all the way through final design
and construction.
BKV Group brings architectural planning and design, we also offer interior design, mechanical/electrical and structural engineering, landscape
architecture, and building code compliance expertise in-house. We have once again brought trusted partner Oertel Architects to our team.
No firm has more public works experience in the region, and they will work closely with our team to address public works planning. To
ascertain the current conditions of the existing facilities considered by the study, we have brought long-time collaborator Kraus Anderson
Construction to our team once again. Their detailed and vetted process will provide a clear understanding of the current conditions of
your facilities and the deferred maintenance and costs for correcting current deficiencies. Kraus Anderson will also collaborate on the
development of probable costs for new or improved facilities.
Our team has worked together on many projects and understand current national standards and planning requirements associated with all
your operations. Our team leaders have focused their careers on aspects dealing with design and operations of city hall, public safety, fire,
and public works facilities and have presented at national conferences and seminars on the issues and requirements associated with public
project planning for these project types.
In addition to our successful history together, our team is confident that we are the best team to deliver this project because we exceed the
competition in five essential ways:
A COLLABORATIVE STAKEHOLDER-FOCUSED PROCESS. Our team’s approach to public projects is to actively engage City,
department, and facility leadership and staff as we develop our project understanding. Our process includes listening sessions which
allow us to leverage distinct perspectives on a facility’s strengths and limitations, and on the opportunities to increase the effectiveness
of your services and operations. We will explore every option as the project evolves and the City will be an active participant.
166
INNOVATIVE INDUSTRY-LEADING EXPERTISE. The BKV Group team includes
focused expertise, which means our recommendations are informed by industry thought
leadership and experience in specific project types, an awareness of evolutions and
trends in operations and service delivery, decades of experience tailoring planning
recommendations to your needs and your community, and facility-specific up-to-date
construction and project cost knowledge. Our team and its members have completed
hundreds studies and designs for each of your project types, and we are dedicated to
learning, research, and instruction that will allow our experts to help you implement
cutting-edge facilities that help you provide superior service to the public.
HOLISTIC DESIGN. We have developed an integrated design approach that capitalizes
on our wide array of in-house design and engineering disciplines. Diversity in project type
expertise will also benefit the City. Blending expertise in civic, public safety, public works,
and workplace means that every aspect of your project will have focused attention by
industry veterans. This strategy stretches our thinking outside the traditional silos and
enables a more holistic vision, a broader approach, and ultimately planning more perfectly
optimized to the site and to the occupants.
RESPONSIVE PROJECT MANAGEMENT. Managing a multi-faceted project that
addresses existing facility analysis, stakeholder engagement, space program development,
exploration of planning options, informed cost development, holistic design, and
construction phase engagement requires focused project management. We will utilize
BKV Group’s vetted project management process and tools to provide communication
and accountability, timely responsiveness, and unified coordination of the entire project
team.
CREATIVITY. The planning for your public facilities not only need to reflect the values
of Corcoran but should also reflect an investment that the public and department staff
is proud of. BKV Group has a 45-year history of planning and design excellence, winning
both regional and national awards for the functionality and beauty of our projects. We
think harder, earlier, to make sure we find the best solution for our clients.
We believe in a friendly, upbeat, and fun approach to our work. We look forward to sharing our
passion with Corcoran, working towards a common goal of a functional, durable, cost-effective,
and beautiful facilities that serves the community for decades to come.
We are energized at the prospect of a collaboration between the BKV Group team and the City.
At the heart of successful, robust planning efforts is a strong partnership. We look forward to
“Enriching Lives and Strengthening Communities” - our mission across every project. If you have
any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
BKV Group

COMPANY HISTORY
BKV Group is a full-service architecture, engineering, interior design, landscape architecture and construction administration firm. Over
the last 45 years, BKV Group has grown from a sole proprietorship into a diverse partnership with offices in Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City,

own. Our core belief is that architecture has a profound responsibility to the community – regardless of the project type, our duty is to
always enhance the economic, aesthetic, social, and environmental context of the communities we work in.
In 1986 the company was renamed Boarman and Associates. In 1992 David Kroos, Peter Pfister and Jeff Rudin became parters to create
Boarman, Kroos, Pfister, Rudin & Associates, the first of several iterations that eventually became BKV Group in 2001. The Chicago

SUBCONSULTANTS
Founded in 1996, Oertel Architects provides a full range of consulting services,
including condition assessments, planning, architectural and interior design,
and construction-related support. With nearly three decades of experience, we
have collaborated with 69 cities, 18 counties, and numerous state agencies,
earning a reputation for thoughtful design, problem-solving, and strong client
relationships. While our portfolio is extensive, we have deliberately remained a
small, nimble firm, allowing us to take a direct and personal approach to every
project.
We are committed to solving design and construction challenges in a way
that ensures each project achieves its full potential at the most efficient cost.
Regardless of project size or complexity, we prioritize attention to detail, an
understandable design process, and a hands-on approach. By engaging with
user groups, closely examining building conditions, and working through design
challenges collaboratively, we create practical and effective solutions tailored to
our clients’ needs.
Our firm specializes in the planning and design of public works facilities—a
primary focus for over 29 years. We have an in-depth understanding of the
operational intricacies of these facilities, including equipment needs, workflow
efficiencies, and seasonal demands. This expertise allows us to create spaces
that enhance functionality and support staff needs throughout the year.
Beyond our in-house capabilities, we excel at managing and participating
in large, multidisciplinary teams, ensuring seamless coordination between
specialty consultants, contractors, and stakeholders. Our well-established
industry relationships enable us to deliver comprehensive and innovative
solutions that serve municipalities and public agencies effectively.

Development of a Civic Campus Master Plan for the City of Roseville, MN following the City’s
purchase of land adjacent to the existing campus, home to City Hall, Police Department,
Maintenance Facility, and Central Fire Station. Concurrent with the growth of City services, and
building on earlier studies regarding the Maintenance Facility and License Facility, this project aims to
provide a planning and growth framework for phased redevelopment.
The project’s core goals are to: increase operational efficiency, establish a cohesive civic campus,
address current and long-term needs of stakeholders, increase community access, enhance civic
identity, and balance fiscal responsibility and value. The Master Plan process includes a multi-phase
community engagement strategy, detailed programming with City departments to understand
operations and develop detailed space program requirements, and creation of a set of planning
options offering distinct opportunities for the future of the civic campus.
The Maintenance Facility housed the Public Works Operations as well as Parks Maintenance work
groups. Each department had operations and current space demands evaluated for operational
efficiency and future needs to meet city demands. Oertel Architects developed ideal operational
conceptual scenarios to fit the large space demand within the existing Civic Campus area and
worked with BKV to further integrate the largest programmatic space need the city has within a
larger campus master plan context. The resulting options illustrated concepts on how Public Works
and Parks Maintenance can be more than just a back-of-house operational facility, by becoming part
of a larger municipal complex that houses all city services, while providing amenity for the city and its
residents.
BKV has been hired to conduct a station location study for Fire Station 2 and to do a Pre-design
Report for the Public Safety Facility in preparation to seek State funding.

Development of capital improvement recommendations for the City of South Saint Paul’s Central
Maintenance Facility, City Hall (including City Hall and Police Department), their two Outdoor Public
Aquatic Facilities, a historic Library building available for adaptive reuse, and a leasable suite within
their Ice Arena. BKV Group, in collaboration with Oertel Architects and Kraus Anderson, provided
a Facilities Condition Review of all facilities, evaluation of existing space utilization and operational
efficiency, leading to development of space needs projections for each facility. Work included site
visits to review exterior and interior conditions, current operational layouts and workflows, and
evaluation against current codes, regulations, and relevant industry best-practices.
The project included consideration of maintaining or changing the City’s existing co-location of
Police, City Hall, and Fire Department (an operation explored under a separate parallel study) with
impact to collaboration and efficiency versus the constraints presented by the existing landlocked
building and site, which do not have the capacity to accommodate all three projected space
needs. Project outputs include: detailed existing and projected space programs, conceptual block
plan layouts, conceptual exterior renderings, implementation phasing schedule, and estimate of
construction and project costs.

The City of Golden Valley Civic Campus Master Plan is a campus planning effort with BKV Group,
Oertel Architects, and HKGI in collaboration with Kraus Anderson. This comprehensive facility needs
assessment included detailed physical facility reviews, development of space needs programs and
future projections, and preparation of proposed design and planning strategies.
Currently, all city municipal services (Police, Fire, City Hall and Public Works) are all located at a
central location in what is considered downtown Golden Valley. Significant space demands can not
be met by the constrained site and still house all municipal services. The site location is at a critical
area for planned mixed use municipal and private commercial development. The study evaluated
existing functional and operational needs; studied inefficiencies and limitations of facilities, provided
a space needs analysis and building program; and illustrated concepts for building footprints that
meet service demands for municipal services within the downtown core; establish projected costs
for various scales of potential projects; and fostered community buy-in and consensus building by
integrating a robust community outreach process using multiple modalities and multiple touchpoints
throughout the process.
Following completion of the project, the team has continued into ongoing pre-design efforts for
the first phases of implementation, including ongoing pre-design efforts for the new Fire Station,
downtown Public Safety Building, and the new Maintenance campus. This work includes revisiting,
refining, and enriching facility space programs, detailed review and consideration of project siting
and phasing, and focused community engagement efforts in service of continued public awareness
and support of these large-scale investments.

FIRE STATION ANALYSIS & PRE-DESIGN
Within our 2020-2021 long-range municipal
facilities study for the City of Golden Valley, we
affirmed the city’s programmatic and facility
space needs for each of its key departments,
including Fire Service, identifying the need to
support the department in transitioning from
paid-on-call to duty crew service with facilities
that support cancer-prevention, gender equity,
and 24/7 operations. The outcome of that
study also noted the operational and budgetary
efficiency of transitioning from a 3-station
model to a 2-station model, as GIS analysis
validated the ability to serve the city from two
strategically-placed fire stations.
Leveraging funding from the State of Minnesota,
the City proceeded with a pre-design process
and sta-tion location analysis, where the
primary objectives were to further develop
the new station’s space program, to further
engage the community about potential station
locations, and to provide detailed analysis and
recommendations for potential station locations.
The project team collaborated with the Fire
Department on an itemized space program,
utilizing benchmarking from similar projects and
indus-try best practices. Community engagement
events were provided at multiple touchpoints
throughout the project, first as a method of
communication and transparency about the
need and value of the pro-ject, at a midpoint to
gain public feedback on the proposed scoring
criteria for potential site evaluation, and finally
to receive input on both a long and later a short
list of recommended sites. Activities includ-ed
open houses and digital surveys.
The project team presented to the City
Council throughout the project, with final
recommendations reflecting both public and city
leadership direction. Final deliverables included
maps of shortlisted sites, scoring and ranking
reflecting a combination of GIS response-time
analysis, site zoning, development costs, and
other quantitative and qualitative attributes,
diagrammatic site plan test-fits of potential
building and site program elements, and
evaluation with city departments of each site re:
zoning, de-velopment, and community impact.

- Only 1 Wash Bay The Red Wing Police Department currently shares a building with the Goodhue County Sheriff and
is in need of additional operational space as well as wellness functions and training opportunities.
Looking to potentially move into their own facility, the BKV team completed an operational space
needs analysis to determine the department’s immediate space needs and projected needs in 20
years. The projected space needs for the Red Wing Police Department was identified around 42,000
SF.
A feasibility study was completed to review the potential for repurposing an existing city-owned
facility currently occupied by the public works department for the police department. BKV
developed several planning options exploring ways to reuse the existing city-owned facility as well
as planning for an entirely new facility on the same site. Additionally, an alternate concept was
explored for a new build adjacent to the city’s fire station.
During the course of the initial police study, the city determined it would be beneficial to explore an
option for a combined police and public works facility. Oertel Architects was brought on as a project
partner to perform the public works programming and master planning. Master planning concepts for
a combined facility were studied to confirm site feasibility and costs.
With each planning option, cost estimates were completed to identify the associated overall project
costs and the pros/cons of each option were reviewed to assist the city in making an informed
decision on how best to address the needs of the police department.

Existing facilities assessment, space needs programming, and conceptual design recommendations
for twelve of the City of Buffalo’s core municipal facilities, ranging from a standalone community
center to public safety facilities and multi-building maintenance and utility sites. Work included
benchmarking facilities and operations against current industry codes, regulations, and best
practices, and development of detailed space program matrices itemizing existing versus projected
space needs for personnel, vehicle and equipment, support and storage, and public areas for
each facility. For each facility, BKV Group deployed specialists with each facility type to connect
with department heads, staff, and facilities personnel to document critical issues impacting safe,
efficient, and effective operations, collaborating with these core stakeholders on development
of recommended space programs and conceptual block plans. Work also included a multi-part
community engagement effort, to guide and inform recommendations about public-facing facilities
included in this study.
BKV Group worked with the City’s Task Force to develop project guiding principles, through the
project to review and refine progress work, and to establish a feasible strategy for project phasing
and prioritization. Project deliverables included space programs, conceptual block plans, a final
report, and project cost estimates. For each facility, the team developed multiple options for review
and consideration, facilitating dialogue within City leadership about discrete investments per
department versus facilities and sites where investments could support greater operational efficiency
through strategic co-location.

The new City of Fridley Public Works facility was an integral part of a larger municipal
improvement and redevelopment project known as the City of Fridley Civic Campus. The
project included a new Public Works facility, City Hall, and Public Safety facility, all organized
around a central water feature and outdoor plaza connecting to nearby walking trails. In
addition, part of master planning for the civic campus site was identifying land area for future
housing development that could share the newly created community amenities.
The public engagement process had been ongoing long before BKV Group and Oertel
Architects were brought into the project, with a previously approved building program and a
site master plan developed through a series of public design charrettes. The previous project
plan developed didn’t have the level of detail needed to execute the final project. Acting in a
very transparent and data-driven way, our team documented the actual space needs for each
department now and in the future and compared them to the spaces of similar communities
in the immediate area to give the public reassurance that the space requests were appropriate
and in line with local standards. This careful process was scrutinized and questioned by the
citizens who were rightly concerned by the increases proposed, but accepted when no holes
in the logic could be found. The team worked with the owner to distill the master plan to it’s
essential elements and reconstructed it with proper site flows.
Planning the new City of Fridley Public Works facility presented several challenges. The unique
location challenged the design team to balance staff access vs. public access and public works
operations. Construction was phased to maintain the existing public works facility operations
during the construction of the new facility on the same site.
The public works facility included staff office and support space along with conditioned vehicle
storage, cold storage, salt storage, a fueling facility, and fleet maintenance space.

BROOKLYN CENTER, MINNESOTA
Oertel Architects was engaged by Brooklyn Center in 2018 review their existing facility and provide
a space needs program for their current operations to gauge the building’s ability to meet developing
industry trends and best practices. Oertel was engaged again in 2023 to update the space
needs, look at other site opportunities and develop a master plan for how a new facility can meet
programmatic needs. Oertel also engaged in a concurrent Facility Condition Assessment project with
the city to review all municipal facilities, to evaluate the ability to meet functional and operational
needs.
Since 2018 Brooklyn Center as a community has seen significant change within the community and
aging infrastructure has translated into a demand for space that meets the departments unwavering
ability to continue and deliver a high level of service to its community.
The study process test fit the programmatic needs on multiple site opportunities to help the city
public works leadership determine if any potential sites were worth investigating further. Five
potential sites were reviewed, in addition to generalized site arrangements and a phased approach
to the existing site. Each design scenario received a full cost estimate for the building with site work
and any relocation, demolition and site acquisition costs. The process identified that the existing
site, with a phased approach and temporary relocation would be the most ideal scenario for the city.
That design has advanced into a more advanced schematic design to assist the city with securing
funding for construction.

BKV Group & Oertel Architects were engaged to provide architectural and engineering services to
the City of Rosemount, MN for a new combined police and public works facility. The previous project
plan developed didn’t have the level of detail needed to execute the final project; therefore, the BKV
& Oertel team were brought in to plan the new facility development. The 160,000 GSF facility was
planned on a 20-acre site at a highly visible location within the city providing a new civic identity for
the police and public works departments.
The facility has a strong presence along Biscayne Avenue and was designed to be a welcoming
community asset, including a generous public lobby and community training rooms. The public
space is shared between the police and public works departments, located to maintain and provide
a secure facility while providing easy wayfinding to city services. The facility was carefully designed
to maximize daylighting to the occupied spaces to support staff health and wellness. A landscaped
courtyard space was created for staff use within the secure area of the site, with the fitness area and
staff break spaces located around the perimeter.
The facility provides centralized public works operations, providing space for public works offices,
and staff support space as well as vehicle storage, vehicle maintenance and wash facilities. The police
includes staff workspace, interview rooms, temporary holding, evidence processing/storage, indoor
gun range, tactical training, and K9 area.

ORONO PUBLIC WORKS
ORONO, MINNESOTA
The City of Orono hired Oertel Architects to provide design services for its new Public Works
campus. The project includes a 60,000-square-foot full-service public works building (vehicle
storage, vehicle maintenance, office, shop, and support), exterior covered storage bins, exterior open
storage bins, a salt building, a brine building, and a fuel island. The new facility is designed to improve
operational efficiency, streamline maintenance processes, and enhance long-term service capabilities
for the city.
The site was formerly owned by MnDOT and is located off Old Crystal Bay Road, immediately
adjacent to Highway 12. Steeply sloped, long and linear, and adjacent to residential properties, the
site poses several challenges. The design team worked closely with city staff, council members,
easement holders, and neighboring residents to develop a campus that balances functional needs
with community concerns. The final design minimizes visual impact, incorporates thoughtful site
grading, and strategically positions buildings and storage areas to maximize space while maintaining
accessibility and efficiency. Sustainable design strategies and durable materials ensure that the
facility will serve the city well for years to come.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING, WORK PLAN AND SCHEDULE
PROJECT COMMUNICATIONS
The foundation for the success of this project will be our collaborative and consensus-based communication planning which will produce
a defined schedule and work plan using input from all stakeholders. The BKV Group team will work closely with the City to review and
refine the work plan at the start of the project to assure that critical milestones are defined within the project time frame. Additionally,
this effort will establish all goals and objectives that are to be understood and met within the project schedule.
Our approach is led by our experienced senior team members who provide you with the expertise and understanding that is needed
to properly address important issues in a timely manner and create a well-developed project that is delivered on schedule. The BKV
Group team is a national leader in public facility planning and design. Our experts are at the top of their fields in planning and design
for these project types. We will bring new options and approaches to the City based on our project-type specific level of focus and an
understanding of current national standards.
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
We understand the concern counties bear in responsibly managing resources, planning, and implementing capital improvements, and in
doing so uphold the quality and service expectations of their residents. When a public project begins with a space needs assessment,
condition and operational assessment, master planning, and feasibility study process, a foundation is laid that provides an invaluable tool
for long-term planning and subsequent design efforts as it:
• Establishes an objective, informed identification of existing facility condition and operational concerns, and both current and future
space needs.
• Utilizes a multi-part approach to assessment, analysis, and engagement that feeds into recommendations that reflect and balance
operational needs, fiscal responsibility, critical-path planning, and long-range visioning.
• When considering renovations and expansion, it investigates both current facility conditions as well as phasing and implementation
options to maintain municipal operations and considers safety of staff during future construction phases.
• For a facility present on a campus with other city facilities, opportunities for synergy and efficiency can be explored.
• Provides an understanding of the total project costs associated with the needs and planning options identified
Your initial facility space need assessment and master plan encompasses multiple facility user groups. We provide a team with specific
expertise in each area to properly address the needs, evolutions, and best practices of the different operations. As leaders in public
facility planning and design, we know that our clients entrust us with the critical tasks of establishing project needs, designing facilities
that work, and bringing credibility to the project results. Elected officials, project stakeholders, and citizens must have confidence in the
recommended direction of the project.

We do not have preconceived notions on what a public project should be, but we understand your operations and the concerns of local
government. We speak your language. Our experience will allow us to arrive at solutions quickly and provide a smooth and efficient
project development process. It takes an in-depth understanding of the operations and aspirations for a building’s ultimate users. Our
experience in your project types gives us with unmatched perspective and a unique understanding of these agencies. Through this
understanding, we provide user-responsive planning and design solutions for our clients.
Government project space needs analysis and master plans are foundational for supporting local government planning and investment,
which is why this project type is among BKV Group’s core services. We leverage facility specialists and our in-house engineers to ensure
a process that draws on industry-specific expertise, and our team’s knowledge of national best practices and evolutions in key public
services. We are committed to leading this effort, facilitating valuable and informative dialogue with your core team, department leaders,
and staff to deliver a project that realizes your goals and objectives.
WORK PLAN
TASK ONE – PROJECT DISCOVERY & KICKOFF
DISCOVERY. Successful programming and master planning efforts
must begin with an understanding of the departments and a base
knowledge of the existing facilities. We will request the following, if
available, for review prior to the first workshop:
• Construction drawings or plans of the existing facilities so we can
compare future space needs with current space allocation.
• Maintenance and operations data associated with the current
facility and site.
• Organizational Chart/Inventory of the current facilities, staff, and
fleet vehicles so we have a point of departure for discussions of
future expectations.
• Mission statements so that your projects can support your
organizational priorities.
• Any previous reports conducted on the facilities.
• Any boundary, topographic, and utility surveys, environmental
assessments, geotechnical investigation reports, etc. available for
the current site.
• Access to the latest zoning information so we can research
permitted uses, setbacks, etc.
• Access to the latest aerial photography of the community so we can
communicate the impacts a project may have on the surroundings.
WORKSHOP 1
KICKOFF. The first step in any successful project is establishing an effective team. We do this during the project kickoff meeting by:
• Introducing all core team members and their roles/responsibilities.
• Reviewing the City’s explanation of the project, including project history and department backgrounds.
• Discussion of accepted growth trends as identified in the comprehensive plan.
• Review of the City’s strategic priorities.
• Establishing the schedule, including all major tasks, workshops, presentations, and deliverables.
• Defining communications protocols between the BKV Group team and the City.
• Identifying all stakeholders and the ways they will be engaged throughout the study.
201
BKV GROUP | 39
Facilitating the creation of shared goals, objectives, expectations, and vision. The goals and objectives always include “on-time” and
“on-budget,” but also include things like “study finished before winter,” “include resiliency measures in study data,” or “enthusiastic buy-
in from the staff.” The discussion of expectations allows each stakeholder around the table to talk about how they typically work, their
management style, and any pet peeves that consultants sometimes fall into.
Each member of the BKV Group team will consciously adopt and internalize these goals, objectives, expectations, and visions so that
every decision we make aligns with your best interests. An effective kickoff is the first step to a professionally managed project.
TASK TWO – ANALYSIS OF DEFERRED MAINTENANCE & IMPROVEMENT COSTS
WORKSHOP 2
INFORMATION GATHERING & FACILITY TOURS. Kraus Anderson will lead an information gathering workshop that will engage
department and facility managers in dialogue regarding the known conditions of the facilities and sites and dates and ages of major
materials and equipment. This information will form the basis for the team’s understanding of the maintenance and conditions of the
facility. The team will tour the existing facilities documenting discovered deficiencies and necessary repairs and maintenance required.
Together, the collected data will be used to develop a report of the conditions and a capital improvement plan with recommended
timeline and costs for work required.
WORKSHOP 3
RESULTS AND REPORTING TOOLS. Our team will meet with the City to review the results of the facility condition assessment
process. Kraus Anderson will provide an interactive web-based platform that the City will be given access to with the summary of
findings, details of work required, resulting costs, and recommended timeline for implementation of repairs and maintenance. This will be
a tool that the City has the option to have access to even beyond completion of the study.
TASK THREE – OPERATIONAL & SPACE NEEDS ASSESSMENT
WORKSHOP 4
OPERATIONAL TOURS & ASSESSMENT. BKV Group realizes that your most important asset is your staff. Your operations will
be carefully evaluated and considered. We are committed to planning for efficient and enjoyable work environments but also must
understand current operations and the limitations that the existing facility has placed upon staff and the community. Our team will review
the operational and functional conditions of the facility and how your facilities are impacting the efficiency and effectiveness of your
operations.
• Building Code Issues: means of egress, fire separations, stair/railing dimensions, etc.
• ADA/Accessibility: approach and entry to building, doors and corridors, restrooms, break rooms, etc.
• Energy Efficiency: Insulation, equipment, windows, air barrier, energy use intensity compared to industry averages.
• Health and Safety Issues: trip/fall issues, OSHA compliance, theft and vandalism, force protection standards, layers of security, etc.
• Functionality Issues: workflow support, gender-balance issues, wayfinding, ease of access by citizens, general sustainability, etc.
We would prefer to be toured through the facility by the department leadership to get feedback from one of the day-to-day users. Our
deliverable will be a narrative describing the issues identified, with photographs for documentation. The Functional Report typically runs
10 pages or longer. It can help provide guidance for correcting the functional issues you are experiencing in your station.
SPACE NEEDS ANALYSIS. Our team will meet separately with each department and user group to identify, discuss, and closely define
all the spaces required to function efficiently, in compliance with law and national standards, for the decades to come. We will discuss the
“State of the Art” for your project types and how spatial relationships may be affected by forward thinking. With your consent, we will
conduct a survey of your staff to solicit information about what elements to repeat from your current facilities, what elements to avoid,
and any features of other facilities they have seen and liked. We will compare the space needs identified through this discussion with the
space you currently have in your buildings so we can understand how well the current facilities are responding to your actual needs and
what is necessary for efficient and complete operations.
202

PHASE FOUR – ANALYSIS OF PLANNING OPTIONS & CONCEPT PLANS
WORKSHOP 5
PLANNING OPTIONS. BKV Group will use the information compiled in the previous phases to explore development options for
improving your existing facilities and considering new facilities on your identified sites. We will look at opportunities for efficiency and
shared space. For each planning option we will use high level concept plans, site plans, etc. to communicate the implications of the option
to the City and will work with you to develop a list of pros and cons regarding phasing, operational impacts, health and safety, first costs,
workflow efficiency, sustainability, and long-term serviceability.
Specifically, for each concept we will explore the
following:
• Building footprint and available space
• Site access points
• Vehicle circulation
• Pedestrian circulation and wayfinding
• Staff parking
• Greenspace, stormwater, and topography
• Utilities and Equipment Areas
• Expansion areas, including options to consider the
larger city campus.
We will review adjustments requested by City and rough
order-of-magnitude cost information and will refine the
project requirements. Our deliverable will be conceptual
site plans and conceptual stacking/layouts sufficient to
validate the practicality of each Planning Option, along
with a narrative explanation, pros/cons information, and
the high-level cost estimate.
WORKSHOP 6
SITE EVALUATIONS. BKV Group will lead the City through an interactive process of evaluation for the current sites and potential
future sites to support the development of project planning options. This will include considerations as it relates to development
potential such as utilities, topography, and site impediments, but also operational criteria for all user groups.
WORKSHOP 7
DEVELOP CONCEPTUAL PLANS. We will present evolution and development to the high-level site and concept plans of the options
selected by the City. Phasing concepts will be explored for reuse, renovation, and expansion options. The goal for this study is not to
comprehensively work through all the issues and achieve perfection, but to proceed to the point where the City is comfortable that the
solution is workable.
TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET. The BKV Group team will work with you to develop a total project budget for the final project options,
including Construction Costs, Design Contingency, Escalation, FF&E, Design Costs, etc. For options using existing facilities the planning
option budgets will also include deferred maintenance and repair costs identified in the Facility Condition Assessment phase. With these
numbers in place, we would like to work with you and your financial advisors to determine potential funding sources, strategies, and any
impacts to residential and commercial properties of different value. We find this final step to be critical to communicating the true, often
minor, impact of a multi-million-dollar project to the individual homeowner.
203
BKV GROUP | 41
PHASE FIVE – FINAL REPORT & COUNCIL PRESENTATION
WORKSHOP 8
FINAL REPORT. All the study deliverables, data collected, Workshop review materials, and Workshop meeting minutes will be
combined into a final document with Chapters presenting each step of the process. The entire process will be documented, which will
serve as evidence of the comprehensive and transparent process with data supporting every decision made. To aid the City in moving
forward with their Projects, the last chapter will recommend action items.
PRESENTATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL. The process and the final report are designed to stand up to scrutiny, so BKV Group
will be happy to present the final concepts and cost implications to the City Council and/or the citizens. This presentation should also
reiterate the comprehensive process, explain how the original project goals were addressed, and recommend Next Steps.
PROPOSED TIMELINE
One of our first steps will be to meet with your core team to better understand your schedule goals, availability for meetings, and
the proposed arc of key stakeholder and City Council sessions. With this information, we can develop a comprehensive critical path
Gantt schedule that identifies all meeting dates, presentations, and all key milestones and deliverables. Our goal will be to leverage
our experience in this project type and our history of delivering projects for communities like Corcoran to maximize the benefit of our
expertise that we bring with minimal impact to your time. Of critical importance will be having sufficient touchpoints as the deliverables
are developed and giving stakeholders adequate time to review and comment on the deliverables as they are being developed.
We believe that what we have proposed will provide sufficient time for the project to advance and conclude successfully. Our estimated
schedule is summarized as follows:
TASK PHASE SCHEDULED DATES DURATION
Contract Approval by City 7/24/25 Estimated
Task One Discovery 7/24/25 to 8/19/25 2 weeks
Kickoff Meeting 8/12/25
Task Two Facility Condition Assessment (FCA)8/13/25 to 8/21/25 1 weeks
Task Three Needs Assessment 8/22/25 to 9/9/25 4 weeks
Task Four Conceptual Planning 9/18/25 to 10/21/25 4 weeks
Task Five Final Report 10/22/25 to 10/30/25 1 weeks
City Council Presentation 11/13/2025 To Be Confirmed
Our proposed schedule includes overlap of our work effort to advance subsequent phases as information becomes available and refined.
City Council presentation can occur as quickly thereafter as the City is ready.
A detailed schedule is included on the following page.
PREFERRED WORK PLAN VS. ALTERNATE WORK PLAN
We believe the City’s requested scope of work is appropriate for achieving the desired outcomes. To meet the City’s goal of completion
by the end of October 2025, the project must progress efficiently while still producing thorough, high-quality results. Our proposed work
plan and schedule are designed to meet both objectives. Corcoran will benefit from our team’s extensive experience serving government
clients across Minnesota, the Midwest, and beyond. This depth of experience ensures a credible process and reliable outcomes. For
this reason, alternative approaches would not have accelerated the timeline or delivered additional value. If selected for this important
project, our first step will be to confirm the scope and schedule, making adjustments as needed.

FEE
PROPOSED FEES
The BKV Group team’s compensation goals are to establish fees that are fair and reasonable for the required services. Our priority is to
achieve our client’s goals while assuring that both our client and our firm are treated fairly for the services and expertise best suited for
the project. To meet this goal, we strive to establish a well-defined project understanding and scope of services. While we will meet with
the City’s core team to review verify the scope of services needed, we believe that the initial scope presented in the RFP to be thorough
and appropriate for the Project’s needs.
PHASE ONE SERVICES
We propose a total not-to-exceed fee of Twenty-five Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty Dollars ($25,960) for Phase 1 Services identified in
the RFP. Proposed fees include typical expenses such as mileage for local travel and printing. We invoice monthly for work performed the
prior month. The fees are broken down by task as follows:
Space Needs / Programming $ 4,765
Facility Condition Assessment $11,875
Development of Planning Options / Budgeting $ 6,565
Final Deliverables $ 2,755
TOTAL $ 25,960
APPROACH TO FEES
We would urge the selection committee to select your team based on experience and qualifications. This fee analysis is based on the
project scope as we understand it from the RFP as well as our experience with the level of service our team provides, and the time
involved in these types of projects. However, our first task in working with the City will be to meet to make sure our assumptions for the
project, meetings, and scope aligns with the City’s expectations and goals. The objective is to find a balance of fee and scope that best
supports the project, the project teams, and the City’s fiscal objectives.

EXCEPTIONS AND DEVIATIONS
We believe that the scope of work outlined in the RFP is thorough and appropriate for a study of your existing facilities and planning for
the City’s long-term needs. The services proposed are typical for the scope of work the City has identified. Our team has completed over
200 studies and master plans and do not believe that any additional or altered services would be needed for the first phase of work. For
that reason, we have included our preferred work plan as part of this RFP response and did not feel an alternate work plan would have
provided any added value or reduced costs.
As the initial phase of work is only the study, we would expect that scope of work for subsequent phases would be more clearly defined
based on the results of the initial study work.

Wright County Government Center“The BKV Group got to know us as their client very well, they listened well and sought
an abundance of input to make certain that every aspect of the design would match our
needs. Clever details like the plaza area with dyed concrete stripes that could double as
overflow parking stalls or the place for an art fair or farmer’s market, an amphitheater for
outdoor classes or entertainment, a fireside room that would serve as a great meeting
space or the resident’s civic campus living room. Each space inside the building was
designed to be open, bright, airy and efficient...the City of Fridley is thrilled with its new,
beautifully designed complex and our choice of the BKV Group.

2026 Budget Goals and Priorities
Action Required:
Council Action
Summary
Staff has begun work preparing to draft the 2026 budget, and requests clarification of City Council goals
and priorities to assist in the process.
Specifically, staff requests budgetary feedback and guidance on the following items:
2026 Budget Target:
City Council has historically established a goal to limit budget to the previous year (2025)
adding any increase in tax capacity plus the rate of inflation.
2026 Service Delivery Priorities:
Service delivery proves challenging with limited scope of capabilities and rising expectations
for services, and staff would like guidance on City Council priorities to assist in decision
making if/when service demands exceed capabilities (staff/budget/equipment/time).
Other goals or priorities
Staff would like to know if City Council has any additional goals or priorities that should be
incorporated into drafting the 2026 budget.
Financial/Budget
City Council direction will assist in drafting the 2026 Budget. Staff will present the draft budget with
