accepted by the Town.
4.4. Termination for Non-Performance. Should a party to this Agreement fail to materially perform in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by the

discretion direct the Contractor to continue performance of the Services following suspension. If such
direction by the Town is made within thirty (30) days of the date of suspension, the Contractor shall
recommence performance of the Services in accordance with this Agreement. If such direction to

compensation is considered a unilateral termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sub-Section 4.3.
Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Parties from executing a written amendment or agreement to
suspend the Services upon terms and conditions mutually acceptable to the Parties for any period of time.

RE: Harry A. Nottingham Park – East Park Improvements Final Design
Zehren and Associates, Inc. Project No: 2021.2859.05
Dear Eric and Jim.
Thank you for the opportunity for Zehren and Associates to prepare and submit this work release to assist
the Town of Avon with the re-design of the East Park Improvements at the Harry A. Nottingham Park
(herein referenced as the ‘Park’). The conceptual and schematic design of the skate plaza has been
conducted in collaboration with New Line Skateparks in the fall of 2023. The Avon Town Council approved
the project to move forward to the next stages of design on November 14, 2023.
This proposal is for the next stages in the design process, including design development, construction
documents, pre-construction services, bidding, and construction observation. Zehren and Associates will
serve as the prime consultant and lead the project by providing project management, landscape
architecture, and architecture design services. The project design team includes the following sub-
consultants contracted under Zehren and Associates to provide services for their respective disciplines:
• New Line Skateparks, Inc: Skate Plaza Design Development
• Alpine Engineering Inc: Civil Engineering
• Architectural Engineering Consultants, Inc: MEP engineering
• Martin Martin Consulting Engineers: Structural Engineering
• Hines, Inc: Irrigation Design
• McAllister Construction Inc: Pre-Construction Services
The design team will integrate the landscape and architectural scope of the community park with the
design development of the skate plaza by New Line Skateparks. This will include updating several park
elements of the previous 2022 project design with the skate plaza including: modular restrooms, multi-use
plaza(s), special paving, seat wall(s), lighting, landscaping, terraced boulders, boulder seating, and shade
structure(s). The project also includes significant utility relocations and new infrastructure to support the
new park area, especially for special event uses. Raising the elevation of the service access road and
associated perpendicular parking along the south side of the project is one of the major improvements.
The overall goal is to create a well-organized cohesive design for the park and skate plaza, that fits the
Nottingham Park site, and maximizes the prime central civic location, including exceptional views,
pedestrian circulation, the recreation field and the events pavilion and terrace. Over-riding goals of the
project design are to promote and facilitate Avon’s special events and public arts programs. This will be
accomplished in deliberate and intentional design for multi-seasonal and multi-use of the new park area
and skate plaza to support a variety of special events conducted on the pavilion stage and the recreation
field, as well as the integration of public art within the skate plaza park and skateable elements.

conform to the Schematic Design plan, with modifications necessary to coordinate with the site design and
grading for the park project. The skate plaza will be designed through design development alongside the
proposed park improvements. An updated cost estimate for the skate plaza is included as part of the
design development deliverables.
SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work is divided into five major tasks amongst disciplines based on the approved schematic
design These tasks are as follows and described in greater detail in the scope of work.
Task 1 Project Management and Administration
Task 2 Design Development, Construction Permit Documents, Construction Observation
Task 3 Modular Bathrooms Solicitation Process
Task 4 Pre-Construction Services
Task 5 Bid Process Support
The scope of work is proposed to be coordinated with the Skate Plaza design work by New Line Skateparks.
Project areas intended for skateboarding and other wheeled recreational use are the responsibility of New
Line Skateparks, while surrounding park and landscape area are the responsibility of the Zehren and
Associates, Inc, and rest of the project team. Items of overlap such as public art and selection of adjacent
paving surfaces and construction materials will be carefully coordinated to result in a cohesive design with
a shared design vocabulary and overall sense of place and identity.
