CONTENTS Understanding of the Project and Technical Approach 04 Relevant Experience 09 Qualifications of the Proposed Project Team 13 Proposed Project Schedule 15 Detailed Fee Proposal By Task Historic Federal Courthouse Building Security Fencing studio 2G Architects, LLP UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT AND TECHNICAL APPROACH » 6S2G | PARKING STRUCTURE SAFETY ELEMENT RESEARCH AND DESIGN STUDIO 2G ARCHITECTS ff UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT AND TECHNICAL APPROACH The City of San Luis Obispo is seeking to enhance safety at three downtown parking structures through the integration of perimeter fencing and security camera systems, with a focus on evaluating the elevated parking deck perimeters for three potential mounting options; surface-mounted, parapet- mounted, and recessed. The project requires a balanced approach that improves safety while maintaining structural integrity, minimizing operational disruptions, and delivering construction-ready documents suitable for permitting and implementation. Our team understands that the primary challenge of this project lies in integrating new systems into three distinct existing structures with varying age, geometry, structural systems, limited documentation, and active daily use. In response, our approach emphasizes early validation of existing conditions, disciplined scope control, and coordinated design across structural and electrical systems to reduce risk and deliver a practical, buildable solution. Project Management and Early Validation We will provide disciplined and proactive project management to maintain alignment with the City’s goals for safety, constructability, schedule, and cost control across all three parking structures. Our approach recognizes that the success of this project depends on early identification and resolution of unknown existing conditions, particularly given the age of the facilities and the likelihood of incomplete or outdated documentation. A central component of our methodology is early field validation paired with critical review of available record drawings. studio 2G will conduct site observations alongside our structural subconsultant, FTF Structural, to verify as-built conditions. We will compare these findings against existing documentation to identify discrepancies that could impact design, constructability, or cost. This includes confirmation of parapet configurations, edge conditions, structural constraints, and the presence of embedded elements that may affect anchorage or routing. By grounding the design in verified field conditions rather than assumptions, we reduce the risk of unforeseen conflicts during later design phases or construction. In parallel, we will coordinate closely with our electrical subconsultant to validate existing infrastructure systems, including electrical capacity, data pathways, and potential equipment locations. This early effort will also identify constraints related to post-tensioned construction, access limitations, and operational considerations within active parking environments. Recognizing that these structures are in continuous use, our validation process will be carefully planned to minimize disruption while still capturing the level of detail required to support design decisions. Where necessary, we will recommend targeted non-destructive investigation methods to supplement visual observations and confirm critical conditions. This early validation phase establishes a reliable technical baseline for the project, allowing the team to refine design assumptions, support accurate cost estimating, and avoid rework. It also enables informed decision-making during alternatives analysis by ensuring that proposed solutions are grounded in the realities of each structure. Through this structured and field-informed approach, we reduce uncertainty, improve coordination across disciplines, and position the project for efficient progression into design and implementation. Alternatives Analysis and System Definition Our Alternatives Analysis Report will include a structured comparison matrix evaluating each mounting strategy (surface, parapet, recessed) across structural feasibility, constructability, CPTED effectiveness, visual impact, cost, and operational disruption. This will be supplemented by representative photo simulations and conceptual details to support City decision- making. A key aspect of this phase is the definition of the CCTV system, as current requirements are not fully established. We will work closely with the City to determine system expectations, including camera coverage, system architecture, and integration with existing infrastructure. This includes evaluating centralized versus distributed headend configurations, confirming storage requirements, and identifying whether new equipment such as servers, licensing, and software will be required. We will also verify the availability and responsibility of network infrastructure within each structure, including IDF capacity and network switching. Early coordination of these elements is essential to avoid downstream conflicts and cost escalation. In addition, we will perform a high-level review of electrical and life safety considerations, including lighting and emergency lighting requirements that may be impacted by the proposed improvements. Understanding of the Project and Technical Approach 7S2G | PARKING STRUCTURE SAFETY ELEMENT RESEARCH AND DESIGN STUDIO 2G ARCHITECTS ff UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT AND TECHNICAL APPROACH In addition, we will perform a high level review of electrical and life safety considerations, including lighting and emergency lighting requirements that may be impacted by the proposed improvements. This review will also evaluate the potential impacts of proposed fencing systems on means of egress, occupant safety at elevated levels, and emergency responder access to ensure that all design options maintain compliance with applicable fire and life safety codes. Future system considerations, such as photovoltaic (PV) solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS), will also be documented to ensure compatibility with long-term City objectives, although these systems are not included in the base scope. Targeted Structural Analysis and System Integration Following selection of a preferred alternative, our team will perform a focused structural analysis limited to the parapet edges and localized attachment zones required for fencing and camera systems including wind load analysis and seismic anchorage in accordance with the current California Building Code. This targeted approach ensures that the analysis remains aligned with the project scope while avoiding unnecessary expansion into full structural rehabilitation. Because the parking structures are constructed with post- tensioned concrete, special care will be taken to avoid conflicts with existing tendons. All proposed penetrations for CCTV raceways and anchorage points for fencing will require non- destructive investigation, such as x-ray scanning, to verify the installation will not affect the structural integrity of the existing garages. In parallel, we will advance camera layouts, electrical routing, and system coordination. This includes confirming power availability, data pathways, and equipment locations, as well as identifying any infrastructure limitations that may impact implementation. Consistent with the City’s direction, this phase will also identify any existing conditions that would prevent implementation of the proposed improvements. Where necessary, we will define enabling work required to support installation, including structural, electrical, or code-related upgrades. Understanding of the Project and Technical Approach Local Presence and Proximity to Project Sites studio 2G Architects’ downtown San Luis Obispo office at 811 Palm Street places our team in immediate proximity to all three project sites, allowing for a highly responsive and informed approach to this work. We are located directly across the street from the 842 Palm Street parking structure, within a three minute walk of the 919 Palm Street structure, and approximately a five minute walk to the 871 Marsh Street structure. 8S2G | PARKING STRUCTURE SAFETY ELEMENT RESEARCH AND DESIGN STUDIO 2G ARCHITECTS ff UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT AND TECHNICAL APPROACH Design Development and Construction Sequencing As Architect of Record, studio 2G Architects will lead the advancement of the design through Design Development and Construction Documents, ensuring that all disciplines remain coordinated, aligned, and responsive to the City’s goals. Our role extends beyond document production to active design leadership, maintaining continuity between the selected alternative and a fully coordinated, constructable solution. We will facilitate internal pull planning sessions with the full consultant team to proactively manage design progression, identify dependencies, and resolve issues early. This collaborative approach keeps structural, electrical, and system design efforts aligned and allows the team to maintain momentum through each phase while avoiding late-stage conflicts. These working sessions are complemented by regular coordination meetings with the City, ensuring that decisions are confirmed in real time and that the design continues to reflect City priorities as it evolves. Throughout this phase, studio 2G will implement our SmartSheet weekly tracking system, which is distributed each Friday to the full team and City stakeholders. This report provides a clear summary of progress, including completed tasks, upcoming work, key decisions, and any items requiring input or action. This level of transparency supports accountability across the team and allows for timely resolution of issues before they impact schedule or budget. As the design is refined, we will develop detailed fencing layouts, structural attachment details, camera placements, and coordinated electrical and data pathways, with a strong emphasis on constructability. We recognize that installing new safety railings and camera systems in active parking structures presents significant logistical challenges. Our approach will evaluate phased installation strategies by level or zone, allowing portions of each structure to remain operational while work progresses. We will incorporate the use of temporary barriers and safety measures to maintain public safety during construction and carefully coordinate work areas to minimize disruption. In addition, we will evaluate the use of prefabricated railing systems and efficient installation methods to reduce construction duration, limit on-site labor, and improve overall safety. These strategies will be coordinated with both the structural and electrical design to ensure that installation sequencing is feasible and aligned with real-world constraints. Coordination between disciplines will remain a priority during this phase, particularly where installation sequencing, temporary conditions, or access constraints influence design decisions. Where necessary, we will work with the City to define acceptable operational impacts and develop solutions that balance safety, efficiency, and user experience. Through strong leadership as AOR, structured coordination, and clear communication tools, studio 2G will guide the project through design development and documentation in a manner that is organized, transparent, and focused on successful implementation.

Understanding of the Project and Technical Approach QA/QC Process: 10S2G | PARKING STRUCTURE SAFETY ELEMENT RESEARCH AND DESIGN STUDIO 2G ARCHITECTS ff UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT AND TECHNICAL APPROACH Cost Approach and Risk Management Our cost approach is grounded in an understanding of the complexities associated with working within three existing parking structures with varying and partially unknown conditions. We recognize that key variables such as structural constraints, electrical infrastructure capacity, and final CCTV system requirements have the potential to significantly influence project cost if not addressed early and proactively. To manage this, our cost estimator is engaged as an active member of the team from the outset of the project, not only at defined submittal milestones. At the beginning of the project, the estimator will review available information and develop an initial assessment of potential cost drivers, risks, and unknowns. This early evaluation informs a set of targeted questions and assumptions that will be coordinated with the City during the initial phases, helping to clarify scope and reduce uncertainty before design progresses. As the design advances, the cost estimator will continuously review evolving drawings and system decisions, providing real- time feedback to the team on cost impacts, constructability considerations, and potential budget risks. This allows the team to make informed decisions during alternatives analysis and design development, rather than reacting to cost issues later in the process. Formal cost estimates will be prepared at each required phase, including Alternatives Analysis, 50%, 90%, and final PS&E, with clearly documented assumptions and contingencies. Each estimate will reflect the current level of design development while also identifying remaining risks, including unknown existing conditions, infrastructure limitations, and scope elements that may require further definition. Our approach also incorporates early field validation and coordination across disciplines to reduce uncertainty related to structural conditions, electrical capacity, and system integration. By aligning cost estimating with verified field conditions and coordinated design decisions, we improve the reliability of cost projections and reduce the likelihood of unexpected changes during construction. Key cost drivers for this project include fencing and safety improvements, CCTV system scope and configuration, electrical and data infrastructure upgrades, and any enabling work required to support installation. These elements will be continuously evaluated and communicated to the City throughout the project. Through early estimator involvement, continuous cost feedback, and clear documentation of risks and assumptions, studio 2G provides a proactive and transparent cost management approach that supports informed decision- making and alignment with the City’s budget objectives. Summary studio 2G Architects brings a clear and disciplined approach to the Parking Structure Safety Element project, grounded in a strong understanding of the technical challenges, risks, and operational constraints associated with working in active, existing parking structures.

Our approach is designed to maintain momentum while allowing adequate time for City review and coordination. We will initiate the project immediately upon notice to proceed with a focused kickoff meeting to confirm scope, schedule, communication protocols, and site access. Following kickoff, the work will proceed through the defined phases as outlined in the attached Gantt Chart. Estimated Overall Duration Based on the durations above and inclusion of City review periods, the total project timeline from notice to proceed through completion of bidding is estimated at approximately 9 to 10 months. We estimated construction duration to be approximately 90 days due to phased construction to maintain parking operations, limited work hours, multiple structures (3 sites) and electrical / data complexity. Schedule Approach Our team will actively manage the schedule through regular updates, early identification of potential constraints, and close coordination with the City. We will prioritize timely submittals and clear documentation to support efficient reviews and approvals. This approach ensures a predictable project timeline while maintaining the flexibility needed to respond to project complexities and stakeholder input.
