Re: Waterfront Park
Sensory Garden Design
Dear Mayor Reiman:
Pursuant to your recent request, we ar pIe sed to provide this scope f services for the above-referenced
project. A sensory garden will be a elco e addition to the Water ont Park for both handicapped and
non-handicapped park users.
We will use existing site mapping as ba map and then consider inor modifications to the concept
plan proposed for the sensory garden 0 the Phase lIB Waterfront Am nities plan previously prepared for
the Borough in March of 2006. We wi I th prepare a Landscape Pia for the sensory garden featuring a
wide variety of plants that will appeal 0 a k visitor's sense oftouc ,smell, etc. Also as requested, we
will research and work with the Borou h to select various types ofma erial (i.e., wood, stone, metal, etc.)
structures for placement within the sen ory arden.
The sensory garden plan will be prep red t a scale of I" = 10'. I addition to the Landscape Plan, a
Planting Schedule will be prepared, a wel as the required details £ the plantings and construction of
any additional paths. Not included in he pans and specifications are the shade structures and the omate
fountain indicated on the previously pr pare plans. Irrigation could b accomplished via a drip irrigation
system. An irrigation plan for the se sory garden will not be prepa ed or included in the construction
drawings; however, we will include a p rformance specification or the drip irrigation system for
inclusion in the construction document or r separate use by the Bor ugh.
Upon completion of a preliminary set f pi s and specifications, we ill meet with Borough officials to
present these documents. Following ny r view comments from the Borough, the plans and specs will
then be finalized and readied for publi bi . We do not anticipate th need for, or include in our scope
preparation of, a Soil Erosion and Sed men Control permit applicati , as less than 5,000 square feet of
area will be disturbed for the constructi n 0 the sensory garden.
During the bidding period, T &M Ass ciat s will assist the Borough by answering any questions from
prospective bidders. We will attend the id opening, review the ids, and also prepare a letter of
recommendation award to the apparen low bidder. Construction ph e services are not included in this
proposal.
