i. PROBLEM DEFINITION

i.A.1. HEALTH AND SAFETY

The hotel building has been vacant since 1988, with no performed maintenance. As a result, the roofing system has failed, allowing water and the elements to enter the top level of the building. This has resulted in considerable water damage to limited areas of the third and second floors, with rot and damage to the floors and walls. Broken windows and damaged tin cornices have allowed pigeons to infiltrate the structure. The age of the building and use over 77 years all but ensures the presence of lead based paint (LBP) and asbestos-containing materials (ACM’s). In 2014, the Deer Lodge Development Group (DLDG) obtained, through the Environmental Protection Agency, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of the hotel (ESA), prepared by Weston Solutions, Inc. – START. This report noted key environmental concerns:

• Suspect ACM’s – roofing, mastics, caulking, floor tiles, boiler and pipe insulation, drywall, and wiring.• Mold visible throughout at wet areas of all floors• Pigeon guano• Associated odors• Potential PCB’s in light fixtures• Chemicals/cleaners presence in basement storage This report recommended a Phase II ESA, which would include hazardous material surveys, testing results, quantities, and recommendations for remediation procedures. This report was subsequently produced by Weston Solutions, and provided to DLDG, containing these components and cost estimates for remediation. Conditions exist within the building which require remediation of hazardous materials for safe demolition, renovation, and occupation. Internally, structural repairs to damaged roof, floor, and supporting wall structures are required. The building has been secured and is not a danger to the public, but needs renovation in order to again become a pillar of the Deer Lodge downtown community.

The proposed renovation concept is extensive, and will be a mixed-occupancy, with different uses at each level, ranging from residential (apartments, hotel spaces, suites) to business (retail, restaurant space, etc.) and as such, the renovation work must comply with the International Building Code (IBC), International Existing Building Code (IEBC), and all other current applicable codes and standards covering mechanical, structural, electrical, and accessibility. The building will be sprinklered, the existing elevator will be replaced with modern units, life safety issues such as fire ratings, occupancy separations, and egress will be addressed throughout the structure, and all governed spaces (public, business, restaurant, hotel) will be fully accessible per ADA standards and requirements.

Describe concerns and deficiencies, compliance issues, and relevant regulations such as the International Building Code, (and other codes as listed in “Special Requirements Concerning Code and Standards Enforcement” in Chapter V of the Application Guidelines), asbestos, lead-based paint, handicapped accessibility, zoning ordinances, and other federal, state, local, or tribal requirements concerning the existing facility(ies). Attach pertinent correspondence to or from appropriate federal, state, and local regulatory agencies, especially information that provides documentation of health and safety concerns and deficiencies.

Describe and document the need for the project and the problems to be solved.

i.A.1. HEALTH AND SAFETY



i.A.2. FACILITY OPERATION AND MAINTENANCEDescribe O&M concerns regarding the existing facility(ies) with an emphasis on those with the greatest financial and operational impact. If the high cost of maintaining the existing facility(ies) is related to a proposal to modify or replace the existing facility, describe and document these concerns and potential cost savings.

Currently, the existing building is boarded up in anticipation of renovation work, with no current operation or maintenance concerns or expenses since it is vacant. When the project is complete, the building will be transformed into a mixed-use facility, with business, hotel, restaurant, residential apartments, and hotel spaces proposed. Some spaces will be privately owned, some will be leased or rented. The renovation would include a new roof system, updated windows (glazing and weatherstripping), completely new mechanical and electrical systems for each floor/space, and new interior finishes. Exerior painting and repointing of the original brick veneer will also occur to provide a sound building envelope.

Operation and maintenance of the renovated building will be equivalent to that of a new facility as none of the original systems (mechanical and electrical) will remain, the envelope will be repaired and repainted, and a new roof system will be installed. The same applies to the interior – all new materials and finishes throughout. No existing components remaining (envelope and structure) should warrant any additional O&M costs over the remaining lifespan/occupancy of the building compared to that of a new facility, with the only exceptions being energy costs for heating and cooling – the exterior walls are not insulated, and the original windows are not thermally efficient. Utility use would be higher than for a new building.

i.A.



i.A.3. GROWTHDescribe the facility’s capacity to meet projected growth needs from the completion of construction through the anticipated useful life of the building. Discuss any potential for future expansion, if applicable, or any consideration given to designing for phased construction or incremental expansion of the facility in the future. Provide both the number of current users served by the facility(ies) and the projected number of users to be served by the proposed project upon completion.

Powell County’s population is projected to have a steady growth rate, with a current population estimated at 6,993 (per the census bureau). With an expected 11.6% increase in population from 2000 to 2030, increased tourism and less expensive real estate near are promoting more jobs and commuters to move to Powell County. Additionally, the state’s population is aging rapidly and senior, affordable housing may be a focus for the programs for the building.

There are no current users of the building and the projected number of users will depend on the final program selected.

The re-use of the building will be planned to meet projected growth needs (depending on the alternative selected - whether renovation or new construction). Future expansion will be considered, especially if new construction, to allow for additional programs or events. This can be achieved through the design of the building; for example, mechanical and electrical systems could be sized larger than what is immediately needed, or space for additional furnaces or panels could be included. The building could be designed in “bays” that would facilitate an additional bay or wing being constructed at a later date. There is not likely much expansion available

Powell County



Deer Lodge is a city in and the county seat of Powell County, Montana, United States. The population was 3,111 at the 2010 census. The city is perhaps best known as the home of the Montana State Prison, a major local employer. The Montana State Hospital in Warm Springs, and former state tuberculosis sanitarium is in nearby Galen are the result of the power the western part of the state held over Montana at statehood due to the copper and mineral wealth in that area. Deer Lodge was also once an important railroad town, serving as a division headquarters for the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (“the Milwaukee Road”) before the railroad’s local abandonment in 1980. The current Montana State Prison occupies a campus 3.5 miles west of town. The former prison site, at the south end of Deer Lodge’s Main Street, is now the Old Prison Museum.

Deer Lodge is also the location of Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site, dedicated to the interpretation of the frontier cattle ranching era. This site was the home of Conrad Kohrs, one of the famous “Cattle Kings” of Montana whose land holdings once stretched over a million acres of Montana, Wyoming, and Alberta, Canada. The Grant-Kohrs ranch was built in 1862 by Johnny Grant, a Scottish/French/Metis fur-trader and trapper who encouraged his people to settle in Deer Lodge because of its pleasant climate and large areas of bunch grass prairie, ideal for raising cattle and horses. The city’s name derives from a geological formation known as Warm Springs Mound which contained natural saline that made for a natural salt lick for the local deer population, the protected valley in which Deer Lodge is located was where most of the local wildlife would winter as the temperatures lowered in the high country.

Extant mentions of the Deer Lodge Valley prior to 1860 are found as occasional remarks in records written for other purposes. Consistent record-keeping begins with the writings of Granville Stuart and others in the early 1860s. 1860 marks the beginning of permanent occupation of both the valley and the future site of the city of Deer Lodge by European-Americans. Before 1860, the Deer Lodge Valley was not the territory of any American Indian group. Gatherings were held there, including horse races. American Indian groups from the west, Flatheads, Pend d’Oreilles et al. passed through the valley as an alternate route to and from the buffalo hunting grounds to the east. The first documented visit to this area by European-American explorers occurred in 1805-1806, when Lewis and Clark’s Corps of Discovery expedition passed by the Deer Lodge Valley without entering it. Evidence of earlier incursion, probably by Spaniards, was noted by miners during the 1880s, at Race Track Lake on the west side of the Deer Lodge Valley. Early European trapper/traders passing through the valley referred to it as “the Deer House Plains”. The Clark Fork river was called the Arrow Stone river in the 1830s.By the 1850s it was called the Deer Lodge Creek/Hellgate River.Catholic Father Pierre-

Jean De Smet brought the first wagons known to have passed through the valley, in 1841. In 1846, the Deer Lodge Valley became part of the United States and Oregon Territory with the signing of the Oregon Treaty by the U. S. and Great Britain. From 1853 to 1863 it was in Washington Territory, then briefly part of Idaho Territory until the creation of Montana Territory in 1864. European-American settlement of the valley gained momentum during the 1850s and 60’s, with the primary site being at present-day Deer Lodge. During the 1850s, trapper/traders from Fort Hall began wintering herds of horses and cattle in the valley. Also during that decade placer gold finds were made near present-day Gold Creek.

During the next two years, placer gold discoveries at Grasshopper Creek, Alder Gulch and other locations to the south caused a population decline in the valley. Beginning in 1864 with gold strikes to the north, Deer Lodge City grew rapidly as a base for supplies to mines in the surrounding mountains. Deer Lodge City was incorporated in 1888, with a mayor and aldermen as officers. Montana achieved statehood in 1889 and a battle ensued between Helena and Anaconda over the location of the capitol in which Helena finally triumphed in 1894. In 1896, Anaconda took the Deer Lodge County seat away from Deer Lodge. This began a battle which culminated in the creation of Powell County in 1901, with its county seat at Deer Lodge. Interstate 90 bypassed Deer Lodge in 1960. In 1961, the Milwaukee Road ended its Olympian Hiawatha passenger trains. Limited passenger service between Minneapolis and Deer Lodge continued until 1964, at which time all Milwaukee Road passenger service to Deer Lodge ended.

In the 1970s, the Anaconda Copper Company suffered financial setbacks which ultimately caused its 1977 merger with ARCO. By 1982, ARCO had closed down the smelter at Anaconda and stopped mining copper at Butte. In 1980, the Milwaukee Road shut down its western extension. All of its infrastructure from Seattle, WA to Miles City, MT was torn out, including the rails themselves.

Deer Lodge is located at 46°23’46”N 112°43’59”W (46.396183, -112.732922).

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.44 square miles, all of it land. The climatic region is typified by large seasonal temperature differences, with warm to hot summers and cold—sometimes severely cold—winters. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Deer Lodge has a humid continental climate, abbreviated “Dfb” on climate maps. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deer_Lodge,_Montana)

Provide a brief history of the facilit(ies), including when the structure was constructed, major improvements implemented in the past, and any past problems.

i.C.i.C.1. HISTORY

Evaluate the condition of existing facility(ies). Describe the existing facilities including at least the following information:

The following history is taken from the United States Department of the Interior National Park Service, National Register of Historic Places record for the Deer Lodge Central Business Historic District (https://npgallery.nps.gov/GetAsset/4b64c186-2a2b-4949-a7d5-d3299ca23e13/)

Western Commercial styles were the main form of architecture constructed in the Central Business District, but there are exceptions to include the Deer Lodge Hotel. The Deer Lodge Hotel, located at 322-328 Main Street, is a three-story brick and stone building with two arched open courts on the upper levels. It was designed by H.F. Beinke of St. Louis. It is a large rectangular building with a flat roof, taking up one-third of the east side of the 300 Block. The building originally housed some commercial businesses along Main Street and Missouri Avenue, with the hotel occupying the upper two stories.

Currently, the building is vacant. There are two visible entries on the main level, one on the northeast corner, and one on the southeast corner of the building, which originally served as the main hotel entry. Rectangular lights line each of the commercial spaces above the boarded over windows. Although the main level of the hotel has lost much of its material integrity due to being covered over in various materials, the integrity remains exceptional on the upper two stories. A belt of decorative iron accents the building and marks the bottom of the second story. The two upper stories house 6/4 double-hung, symmetrically placed windows. All of the windows are slightly inset, wood-frame, and have stone sills. A narrow stone belt is located near the eave, and a heavy overhanging cornice of pressed metal with modillions accents the roof line. The corners of the building and the archways leading through each upper story are quoined with stone, and the peak of each archway is accented with stone. Several rectangular blocks of decorative brickwork accent the roof line below the cornice. It was reported by the local newspaper in February 1911, that the modern hotel for Deer Lodge would be three stories and that the project was taken on by an incorporated company made up of local and Washington state capitalists. The capital behind the company was $75,000 with Leopold Schmidt, once a brewer in Deer Lodge and a Montana Legislator, the principal stockholder. Schmidt founded the Olympia Brewing Company in Washington.

The company purchased 85 x 130 feet on the corner of Main Street and Missouri Avenue and construction was to begin in May of 1911 (The Silver State, February 5, 1911:1). The supervising architect, H.F. Beinke of St. Louis, had arrived the previous day. The contract for the excavation work, which included the foundation and basement walls, was awarded to contractor Tim Calnan (The Silver State, May 24, 1911:1). The building was designed with 52 guest rooms and is unique in that each room has a window that is provided by the arched open courts. The hotel was constructed with hot and cold running water and the floors were served by an elevator. The hotel informally opened for guests on March 20, 1912, but the hotel was still without dining. Mayor Conley of Deer Lodge and his family had the honor of being the first guests.

In addition to short-term occupancy, the hotel appears to have served as a long-term residence around the Depression. In 1930 the hotel rented to several families and individuals by the month. On average, rent was about $25, but ran as high as $38. The 1930 Census listed 10 individual spaces rented by the month, with a total of 51 occupants. Occupants included some hotel employees, to include two managers. The lodgers were diverse in age and occupation, with some as young as 19 and as old as 51. Some worked as managers and merchants of retail spaces in Deer Lodge, while others were school teachers, pharmacists, bankers, civil engineers and workers for the railroad. According to The Silver State Post, Andrew A. Malcom acquired the "controlling interest in the corporation" in 1939 and his family had managed it as late as 1983.

i.C.2. CONDITION OF FACILITY(IES)Describe present condition and any problems such as code deficiencies, general structural decay, presence of asbestos, mold or moisture, lead based paint, subsidence issues, overcrowding, or handicapped accessibility. Describe the adequacy or capacity of the existing facility(ies) to meet existing and long-term needs.

Condition of Facilities Description

Code deficiencies See code review in appendix. The building has not been occupied or updated since 1988, so it will not be incompliance with current codes. Renovation will by necessity bring the building up to current codes.

General structural decay Due a roof leak, structural repairs will have to be made in the course of renovation.

Presence of asbestos, mold, or moisture

Asbestos, mold, or moisture will be remediated with renovation work.

Lead-based paint Lead based paint will be remediated with renovation work.

Subsidence issues No subsidence issues were observed in the facility, which appears to be in good and stable condition.

Overcrowding Once the programmed spaces are determined, overcrowding will be studied; however, it is an unlikely scenario.

Handicapped Accessibility Currently the building is not accessible.

i.C.i.C.2. CONDITION OF FACILITY(IES)Describe present condition and any problems such as code deficiencies, general structural decay, presence of asbestos, mold or moisture, lead based paint, subsidence issues, overcrowding, or handicapped accessibility. Describe the adequacy or capacity of the existing facility(ies) to meet existing and long-term needs.



ii.A.1. DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS - OVERVIEW1. IF PROPOSING REHABILITATION OF ALTERATION OF EXISTING BUILDINGS - Describe existing buildings within the community that could be modified or rehabilitated to accommodate the proposed facility or need.

Describe the potential benefits and possible deficiencies with each alternative design, building, or site considered, including code compliance issues, floor space, handicapped accessibility, and potential for long term expansion, as applicable.

Description of alternative solutions. Describe each alternative design, building, or site considered - i.e. identify and describe existing buildings with potential for rehabilitation or alteration, or alternative building sites considered for new construction.

ii. ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS

ii.A.

Due to the size and population of Deer Lodge, Montana, there are few existing buildings within the community that could be modified or rehabilitated in place of the Hotel Deer Lodge. Alternative 1 considers the possibility that nothing may be done to the existing building. In that case, the situation and building condition would remain as it is now. This situation would result in hardship for the community of Deer Lodge in that the Hotel would, despite all efforts, continue to decay, and could result in the eventual demolition of the building if funding is not obtained for renovation.

Alternative 2 outlines the renovation of the Hotel Deer Lodge and how the building could enable the community of Deer Lodge and Powell County to potentially provide a mixed use solution, with possible program elements such as low-income housing, senior housing, etc. Two programming options would exist for this alternative., but the preliminary costs remain the same for either.

Alternative 1 - Existing Building - no workLocation Description: 322-328 Main Street, Deer Lodge, MT 59722Legal Description: ORIGINAL ADD (DEER LODGE), S33, T08 N, R09 W, BLOCK 10, Lot 11 - 14Total Land Area: 11,050 sq. ft. lot, building constructed in 1911; owned by Deer Lodge Preservation, Inc.

N

Alternative 1i.B.

Alternative #1 explores the impact of not procuring CDBG funds or other funding for capital improvements and the impact on the existing building and the community. The building would likely eventually fail and be forced to be demolished, resulting in an irreparable negative impact to historic downtown Deer Lodge. The corner location of the building is particularly significant to the historic business district.



Alternative 2A and 2B - Hotel Deer Lodge - RenovationLocation Description: 322-328 Main Street, Deer Lodge, MT 59722Legal Description: ORIGINAL ADD (DEER LODGE), S33, T08 N, R09 W, BLOCK 10, Lot 11 - 14Total Land Area: 11,050 sq. ft. lot, building constructed in 1911; owned by Deer Lodge Preservation, Inc.

Alternative 2A and 2Bi.B.

Alternative #2A and 2B examine the feasibility and viability of performing the renovation identified. Renovation would transform the existing spaces into programmed spaces, potentially a mixed use building.

ii.B. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND PERMITSDescribe issues that need to be addressed concerning compliance (for either a new building or a rehabilitated building) with appropriate regulations such as the International Building Code and other relevant codes, zoning issues, asbestos, lead-based paint, permits, handicapped accessibility (American Disabilities Act and HUD 504 regulations), designated 100-year flood plains, and other applicable federal, state, local or tribal requirements.

1. Existing Zoning (per the Town of Deer Lodge)Alternative 1 - No work - pre-existing building / site and use in the Town of Deer Lodge, MTAlternative 2A and 2B - Renovation - pre-existing building / site and use in the Town of Deer Lodge, MT

2. Existing Regulatory Authority: the State of Montana will permit and administer compliance with the current International Building Code (IBC), Fire Code, and associated current mechanical and electrical codes.

3. The existing building would have multiple classifications within the 2012 IBC: Group B Business occupancy, Group R Residential occupancy (R-1 and R-2). Other occupancies may be determined through continued development.

4. New construction as an option was not studied due to the unique nature of the Hotel Deer Lodge building. New construction would not be an appropriate comparison.

5. Accessibility Requirements: Accessibility issues based on the current conditions will be mitigated and improved. In addition to the provisions of the IBC, the Americans with Disabilities Act per ANSI A117.1 will be followed where it does not conflict with the IBC. Multiple elevators are planned within the building at this time.

6. Hazardous Materials: (see following appendix regarding the presence of asbestos and lead paint in any selected existing building materials.) These materials will be identified and removed as outlined per the permitting process by the State of Montana Building Codes Bureau.

7. Commercial kitchen requirements and regulations do not apply at this time. While early planning efforts have included the potential for a commercial kitchen, the intent for that effort is to provide a space appropriate for that use. Specific design and code requirements will be undertaken when final programming is determined with the stakeholders.

8. No Tribal requirements apply.

See appendix for floodplain map and correspondence from regulatory agencies.



ii.C.

ii.C. LAND ACQUISITION ISSUESIdentify sites to be purchased or leased and any easements needed, if applicable. Specify whether these properties are currently owned, to be purchased or leased, and whether options have been obtained, contingent upon receipt of funding.

The existing Hotel Deer Lodge building is currently owned by Hotel Deer Lodge, Inc. Setbacks / easements are not anticipated to be a challenge for the project.

Applicable Easements / Setbacks are per zoning:Alternative 1 - No work. No easements would apply due to pre-existing conditions.Alternative 2A and 2B - Renovation, pre-existing building / site in the Town of Deer Lodge, MT



ii.D. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONSFor the alternative selected for the project, discuss the following:

1. POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS - The information described in the completed Uniform Environmental Checklist (found in the Uniform Application for Montana Housing Loan, Grant, & Tax Credit Programs) is the basis for discussing environmental resources in the area that might be impacted or that might impact the proposed facility. The Uniform Environmental Checklist must be attached as part of the PAR.

If there has been a previous environmental assessment completed for the project, please include a copy of that assessment in addition to the completed Uniform Environmental Checklist.

With the exception of coastal zones and coastal barriers, possible impacts on each environmental issue must be investigated and discussed.

2. MITIGATION - Evaluate appropriate short and long-term measures to mitigate each potentially adverse impact.

Describe the mitigation measure(s) necessary to minimize potentially adverse impacts upon identified environmental resources. Projects contemplating the renovation of existing structures should thoroughly discuss mitigation measures to address any existing hazards, such as asbestos and lead-based paint where identified, in accordance with federal and state requirements.

3. CORRESPONDENCE - Include any environmentally-related correspondence and agency comments (e.g. comments from the State Historic Preservation Office) as required by the Uniform Environmental Checklist, found in the Uniform Application for Montana Housing Loan, Grant, & Tax Credit Programs.

4. EXHIBITS / MAPS - Include any exhibits, maps or drawings as applicable to describe potential environmental impacts.

EPA Brownfield Phase I assessment was completed on the facility. No previous environmental checklist has been conducted.

See appendix for environmental correspondence with regulatory agencies.

Environmental checklist continues on next page.

ii.D.



SECTION D --- UNIFORM ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLISTIMPORTANT: As soon as the Applicant decides to submit an application for federal funds, e.g., HOME, CDBG, etc., it must cease all activities for the project, regardless of the source of funds to be used to fund the activities, except for activities that are considered “Exempt” . Activities may not proceed until the applicable environmental clearance has been achieved and the Grantee receives a letter.

Please complete this section of the application to determine if there are any potential environmental impacts to your project. If awarded funds, CDBG and HOME will require an Environmental Review prior to release of funds.

At the application stage, you may not know the exact impacts of and mitigation measures for all the environmental issues. The Uniform Environmental Checklist provides a tool for applicants to initially evaluate the environmental circumstances that may affect the proposed projects and raises the applicant's awareness of possible problems. Environmental issues may result in additional project costs and time for project completion. Identification of these issues at the application state helps determine the amount of funds needed for the project and allows to early discussion of ways to mitigate concerns.

Again, we do not expect applicants to have completed an Environmental Review or Assessment before application; however, if funds are awarded the applicant must have the capacity to conduct an Environmental Review prior to release of funds. If the applicant is a certified Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO), the unit of local government in whose jurisdiction the project is located, must complete the Environmental Review or Assessment.

Enter the name of the applicant's Environmental Certifying Officer who will ultimately complete the project's environmental review and the name of the individual and title that completed this form.

Applicants must evaluate the potential impact of their project on its location as well as the impact of the location on the project. For example, a proposed housing rehabilitation project may impact certain historic structures, or the existence of a floodplain could impact the location of a proposed affordable housing development.

Following are descriptions for the five codes listed on the form:

N - No Impact Anticipated;NA - Not Applicible to This Project;B - Potentially Beneficial Impact;A - Potential Adverse Impact;P - Agency Approval or Permits Required; andM - Mitigation Actions Required.

List the appropriate code(s) in the "key" boxes that most accurately describe the impact. In some cases, it may be appropriate for the applicant to list more than one code for a single item. For example, of a potentially adverse impact has been identified, an agency approval or permit may also be required.

The applicant must describe impacts in the "comments" section on this form. Please identity the sources of information that were consulted to assess the potential impact.

Sources of information must be included and can include studies, plans, documents or the persons, organizations or agencies contacted. (Note: The "Comments and Sources of Information" boxes will expand as you type in the information.)

Where a potential adverse impact is projected, the applicant must provide:1. a brief description of any reasonable alternatives and a justification of the proposed alternative; and2. list possible short and long-term measures to mitigate the potential adverse impact.

In most cases, applicants will be able to simply provide a brief response directly on the form. If a longer response is required, the applicant can type it on a separate sheet andattach it to the form.

PAR Outline Reference ii.E. CONSTRUCTION PROBLEMS

Describe potential concerns such as geological constraints, limited access, underground storage tanks, high water table, asbestos, lead-based paint, contaminated soil, noise, odors, or other conditions that may affect costs of construction or long-term operation of the proposed (new or rehabilitated) facility.

A factor that may affect the costs of the renovated or proposed facility would be the location of the project in Deer Lodge. This factor may increase the contractor’s general conditions amount during the course of construction (this number is incorporated into the bid amount). The contractor will most likely have to plan on traveling to Deer Lodge or staying at hotels in Deer Lodge during the course of construction, and their bid may reflect this.

ii.F. COST ESTIMATES FOR EACH ALTERNATIVEFor each alternative considered, include both:

1. Project Costs (i.e. Administrative, financial, engineering, architecture, and construction costs) and

2. Projected Annual Operation and Maintenance Costs - in responding to items 1 and 2 for PUBLIC FACILITIES projects, consult the Uniform Application for Montana Public Facility Projects; and Appendix F for Special Requirements for Projects involving Non-Profit Agencies or For-Profit Organizations for other Public Agencies of the CDBG Application Guidelines, Section C, Financial Analysis of the Uniform Application for Montana Housing Loan, Grant,& Tax Credit Programs, provides a form to compute annual operation and maintenance costs that would be useful for Public Facilities projects as well as housing proposals.

Project cost estimates continue on the following pages for Alternative 2 (which would be the same for the various programs planned in 2A and 2B). Due to the potential scale of the project, three project cost estimates outlining different strategies are shown.Since Alternative 1 consists of no work, it is not shown.

i. Overhead Operational Cost Categories - Indirect1. Insurance a. Property b. Risk c. Umbrella2. Power and Light3. Communication / Internet4. Water and Sewer5. Property Taxes6. Other

ii. Overhead Operational Costs Categories – Direct1. Labor2. Food and expendable costs3. Maintenance4. Repairs5. Other (i.e. furniture, fixtures, etc.)

For all the Alternatives (Renovation and Addition, new construction), the annual operation and maintenance costs will include the following categories (and would appropriately scale with the size and scope of each alternate):

Due to the size and population of Deer Lodge, Montana, and the unique historical significance of the Hotel, there are few existing buildings within the community that could be modified or rehabilitated. Alternative 1 considers the possibility that nothing may be done to the existing building. In that case, the situation and building condition would remain as it is now, with the potential for the building to deteriorate.

Alternative 2A and 2B outline the renovation of the Hotel and how the programming for the building could benefit the community. Either programming option, whether public facilities focused or economic development focused, would positively impact the area. Elimination of community blight is a positive in this renovation alternative, since the alternative would utilize an empty building as well as expand programs and could provide jobs and services to the Deer Lodge community.

The preliminary cost estimates provided are independent of either programming option, since the amount of renovation is the same. The cost estimates provide a range of renovation extents, from essential repairs making the building more attractive to a developer, to a full renovation.

Alternative 1 - no work

iii.D. OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTSDiscuss the expertise required to operate the facility and any unique operational requirements or benefits of the facility and describe why the preferred alternative was selected over other alternatives.

The Facility Operation and Maintenance outlined and the program articulate some of the O & M issues and some of the Health and Safety issues are also applicable. Based on the proposed project, it is not anticipated that extensive expertise will be required to operate once the renovation project is completed.

In fact, it is anticipated that when the entire project construction is completed that the expertise level required will diminish compared to similar existing facilities. New building mechanical and electrical systems will be efficient and modern, requiring less oversight and repair.

iii.E. PROJECT COST SUMMARY / PROJECT COST ESTIMATEProvide an itemized estimate of the project cost based on the anticipated period of construction including administrative, development, and construction, land and utilities, legal, engineering, interest, equipment, contingencies, refinancing, and other costs associated with the proposed project. See ‘II.F COST ESTIMATES FOR EACH ALTERNATIVE’ above.

FOR PUBLIC FACILITIES projects, consult the Uniform Application for Montana Housing Loan, Grant,& Tax Credit Programs, and the CDBG website discussing special requirements for projects involving non-profit agencies or for profit organizations or other public agencies. Section C, Financial Analysis, Part V of the Uniform Application for Montana Housing Loan, Grant,& Tax Credit Programs provides a form to compute annual operation and maintenance costs that would be useful for both Public Facilities and Housing projects.

See next page for project cost estimate. At this point in the planning process, the cost estimate to replace the roof, mitigate environmental concerns, and update the structural is the estimate being planned upon by the stakeholder group. • To the best of our knowledge, there are no annual costs of purchasing or replacing equipment necessary to the function of the facility at this time.• Proposed project funding would consist of a potential CDBG grant, historic tax credits, and other funding that has been outlined by Deer Lodge Preservation Inc. in the grant application.

1. Improved use of a significant historic building in downtown Deer Lodge2. Improved building longevity / maintenance

The basic design premise for this proposed project has been to preserve the building for future use, providing longevity for both users and stakeholders, and meeting the outlined programmed space needs. To accomplish this, renovating the building to mitigate environmental concerns, provide essential structural repairs, and provide a new roof in order to keep the building on track for development is the best course of action.

By conducting the required renovation items to the Deer Lodge Hotel, the building will be ready for development. The renovations will maintain the building and prevent it from deteriorating further and risking demolition. The history and story of the Deer Lodge Hotel cannot be matched by a new building. The building is a key landmark for the community, and the stakeholders are actively continuing to seek funding for studies looking to the future of the building. The ranking process outlined the uses preferred by the community, with several uses being proposed by members interested in occupying parts of the building. By updating an empty building, there is a huge emphasis on sustainability and resource use; building re-use is considered to be more efficient due to embodied energy already utilized than new construction (with more new material manufacture and transportation energy). The existing building also is expected (through thoughtful design) to qualify for historic tax credits, which represents a substantial portion of the funding package and again is a way to preserve history in the community of Deer Lodge The economic impact of this project through construction, new businesses and uses is substantial to the community.

The best solution would be to implement the project as outlined previously. The proposed project is well planned and is based on the current identified needs, the available and proposed budget, and the long-term community goals for both Deer Lodge Preservation Inc. and the area. In order to fully support needs, the community and the greater area of Southwestern Montana, the renovation plans for the Deer Lodge Hotel are necessary, recommended, and critical.

EPA Brownfields Cleanup Grant

December 14, 2015

To Whom It May Concern,

Southwest Montana is asking that you give the Deer Lodge Hotel great consideration in making your

decision for your EPA Brownfield Cleanup Grants. The beautiful historic Hotel is in great need of major

renovation most importantly a new roof in the immediate future. Several quality townspeople are

determined to revitalize the town with the Deer Lodge Hotel being first on the list. Deer Lodge is the

second oldest city in Montana. It boasts the beginning of cattle ranching and Montana Law Enforcement

as well as serving as a major station for the Milwaukee Railroad. We now have a National Historic

1880’s Grant Kohrs Ranch and the Old Territorial Prison Museum which would feed right in to the Deer

Lodge Hotel as it did in the past. Travelers, historians, scholars, and your everyday visitor find the town

fascinating. With some majorly needed renovations made, the Deer Lodge Hotel would be a wonderful

functioning heritage to all of this. The town is short on quality rooms for visitors. With new rooms a

potential along with new shops in the area, this would be huge in the quest to revitalizing the town.

Deer Lodge has its own unique personality and so many travelers fall in love with the place. Southwest

Montana is a nonprofit tourism business whose goal is to bring travelers to the area. We often have

free-lance writers, photographers, and movie people coming to the area to promote and film in the

area. The Deer Lodge Hotel would be a wonderful place for people to stay and get the old time flavor

indicative of the area. This would be a huge economic benefit to all of the residence in this small town.

Please give great consideration to this renovation.

Sincerely,

Sarah Bannon

Subject: Powell County (SMA Architects – Becky Lawson) – Deer Lodge Hotel Building Renovation - (Powell County)

Becky LawsonSMA Architects2625 Winne Avenue, Suite 1Helena, Montana 59601

Dear Ms. Lawson:

We are responding to your request regarding building renovation to the Deer Lodge Hotel located in Deer Lodge, Montana. Specifically, you are requesting if there are any adverse or potentially adverse impacts to waters of the US from this building renovation project. The building is located at Section 33, Township 8 N, Range 9 W, Principal Meridian, Latitude 46.404135°, Longitude -112.734298°, Powell County, Montana.

This project has been reviewed in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899. Under the authority of Section 404, Department of the Army (DA) permits are required for the discharge of fill material into waters of the U.S. Waters of the U.S. include the area below the ordinary high water mark of stream channels and lakes or ponds connected to the tributary system, and wetlands adjacent to these waters. Isolated waters and wetlands, as well as man-made channels, may be waters of the U.S. in certain circumstances, which must be determined on a case-by-case basis. Under the authority of Section 10, DA permits are required for structures or work in, over, or under a navigable water of the U.S., or work which affects the course, location, condition or capacity of such waters. Based on the information provided, a Department of the Army permit will not be required for this activity

Based on the information you have provided on July 25, 2017, the proposed work will not result in the discharge of dredged or fill material within waters of the United States and does not involve work in, over or under navigable waters of the United States. Therefore, a DApermit is not required for this work. Measures should be taken to prevent construction materials and/or activities from entering any waters of the United States. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls should be implemented onsite to achieve this end.

Although a Department of the Army permit will not be required for this activity, this does not eliminate the requirements that other applicable federal, state, tribal, and local permits are obtained if needed. Please be advised that deviations from the original plans and specifications of this project could require additional authorization from this office.

Fact Sheet Water Quality Permits for Construction Related Activities

Water Protection Bureau Montana Department of Environmental Quality

MPDES Storm Water Permit: Construction related activities that result in greater than one acre of disturbance and may generate storm water runoff from the construction site during the life of the project must obtain authorization prior to initiation of the construction activity. For purposes of this regulation, construction activities include clearing, grading, excavation, and stockpiling or placement of earthen materials. Routine maintenance activities that disturb less than 5 areas and do not change the original configuration of the site are not subject to this regulation. The owner or operator is required to develop a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). These discharges are covered under a general permit (MTR10000). Coverage under the general permit is effective upon receipt of a completed NOI package (application, storm water pollution prevention plan, and fee). MPDES Construction Dewatering: Non-storm water discharges of sediment laden water from coffer dams, trenches, pipeline construction, excavation pits, borrow areas, well development or other activities that is discharged to state waters, including irrigation canals, drainage ditches and wetlands, are prohibited unless authorized by the Department. Typically, these activities are authorized under the Department’s general permit for construction dewatering (MTG070000). Under most conditions the permittee is required to construct and operate some form of treatment to remove turbidity and sediment to meet state water quality standards. The discharge of ground water that contains petroleum contaminates or other wastes must be authorized and comply with the requirements of the Department’s petroleum clean up general permit (MTG790000 or MTX30000) prior to discharge to state surface or ground water. These permits are typically issued within 30 days of receipt of a completed application. Short-term water quality standard for turbidity (318): Montana water quality standards prohibit the increase in sediment or turbidity above specific amounts in state surface waters. A Section 318 authorization provides a short-term turbidity standard for activities that are conducted in state waters and may cause disturbance of the streambed sediments. A 318 authorization is typically processed in 7 to 21 days but may require longer review for complexity or environmentally sensitive areas. 401 Certification: Section 404 of the federal Clean Water Act is administered by the US Army Corps of Engineers; these permits are for dredge and fill in waters of the US, including wetlands. Please contact the Corps at (406) 441-1375. The Department provides CWA 401 certification of 404 projects and works directly with the Corps on these issues. A joint application form is used.

General Information Fees: All of the above permits require the applicant to pay a fee prior to Department review of the application. The fee varies depending on the type of permit and complexity of the project. A fee schedule is available upon request at (406) 444-3080, or on the Departments website at:

structural, mechanical, and electrical assessments


A


April 27, 2017

Peter Rudd SMA Architects 2625 Winnie Ave, Ste 1 Helena, MT Re: Deer Lodge Hotel Powell County Deer Lodge, MT Peter, On Thursday, July 21st, 2016, Lindsey Bosworth, EI and Adam Sticka, EI completed a preliminary conditions assessment of Hotel Deer Lodge. The hotel is located on the northwest corner of Missouri Avenue and Main Street, in Deer Lodge, MT. The purpose of the site visit was to determine the hotel’s overall structural system, as well as assess the existing structure’s condition and potential for renovation. No destructive investigations or material tests were performed. The findings presented in this report are based on visual observations made during the site visit and a very limited structural analysis.

Observations of Structural System The Deer Lodge Hotel is a three-story brick masonry building constructed in 1911 with a square footprint at the main level. The second and third floors are in the shape of the letter “E” with three main wings running orthogonal to the north hallway. At one location, it was observed that the original exterior brick walls consist of three wythes of brick and are unreinforced. The building shows weather damage and deterioration indicative of being abandoned and not maintained for many years. The most significant structural concerns revolve around damage to structural members due to a leaking roof and overall lack of maintenance and repair.

Figure 1: Deer Lodge Hotel, East Elevation


A


Deer Lodge Hotel Structural Assessment Page 2

Basement: The basement is full-height with 12” thick concrete foundation walls and a concrete slab floor (Figure 2). These foundation walls support the exterior brick perimeter of the building. From the basement, it is apparent that the first floor is supported by a series of concrete columns and steel wide-flange beams (Figure 3). Both the concrete foundation walls and columns are in decent condition, although some of the joists above show signs of rot and deterioration. The boiler room is separated from the rest of the basement by in interior concrete wall. Above the boiler room is an elevated concrete slab supported by the surrounding concrete walls, as well as intermediate round steel columns. This slab also appears to be relatively undamaged, showing only minor cracks and deterioration.

Main Floor The main floor framing consists of rough sawn 2x8 joists at 16” on-center. These joists are supported by the concrete column and steel beam configuration observed in the basement. The subfloor is 1x diagonal planking. In some locations, the floor joists show significant water damage, but overall at this level have not failed structurally due to deterioration. On the main floor runs a combination of brick and wood bearing walls initially covered in lathe and plaster. Large wooden second floor beams can be seen supported by a combination of brick pilasters and large wood columns.

Figure 2: Concrete Foundation wall

Figure 3: Steel Beams on concrete columns, as seen from basement


A



From the first floor, some water damage is apparent in select locations (Figure 4). Most of the first-floor walls seem to be capable of supporting loads from above, but was difficult to confirm. Many of the walls could not be observed due to the plaster and other finishes.

2nd and 3rd Floors The second and third floor joists are 2”x12” members @ 16” OC. On both floors the joists span east to west and are supported by interior wood bearing walls on both sides of the guestroom hallways, as well as by the exterior brick walls.

In the north hallway, the joists continue their east-west orientation and are supported by intermediate built-up wood beams.

The second and third floors have considerable damage due to water and overall exposure (Figure 5). There is mold and moss growing throughout the floor, which have not only kept the moisture in, but have added the long-term weight of the additional growth and moisture (Figure 6). Much of the ceiling and many of the walls are completely incapable of supporting new loads. In multiple locations the floor has failed under its own dead load.

Figure 4: First floor joists with mild moisture damage

Figure 5: Second floor wall damage Figure 6: Example of extreme moss and mold growth


A



Roof Framing The roof framing members are full-sawn 2x10 members at 16” o.c. with 2x6 at 16” o.c. ceiling framing below. Multiple sections of both the roof and ceiling framing have been significantly damaged by water and seen resulting structural failures.

From the exterior side of the roof, the parapets and chimney are in good condition. The parapet is 3 wythes thick to the west and 2 wythes thick on the north-side. Although the parapet steps up and down, the average height is roughly 3 feet. We also observed many deflected areas on the roof, potentially where water has been collecting and entering the building.

There is also a hotel sign supported by the parapet walls. This does not affect the integrity of the main structure, but its connection to the building could present a safety hazard. The top support for this sign is not bolted to the brick, but rather supported by a tension cable to the roof. This connection should be re-evaluated in any future renovations.

Observed Lateral System Originally, the lateral resistance for this building consisted of the exterior and interior brick walls, as well as minimal resistance from the lathe and plaster walls themselves. The brick walls are most likely unreinforced throughout, and as-such provide little lateral resistance when compared to structural systems. The existing 1x plank roof and floor sheathing are not code-recognized diaphragms for the resistance of lateral loads (wind and seismic loads), and the nominal connections between the floor and roof structure to the exterior and interior walls do not provide an adequate connection between these elements.

Investigation and Analysis The investigation and analysis of this structure was based on the life-safety requirements of the 2012 International Building Code (IBC) and the 2012 International Existing Building Code (IEBC). Due to the extensive levels of renovation required, this building would need to be brought up to current International Building Code (IBC) standards. This code insures the building’s ability to withstand occupancy and snow (gravity) loads, as well and wind and potential earthquake (lateral) events.

Figure 7: Chimney and parapets, as seen from roof


A



Gravity System: The foundation and exterior brick of the building are structurally intact and could likely be re-used to support new structure. They would need minor upgrades including, but not limited to, crack repair and repointing deteriorating areas of brickwork.

The first-floor framing and the walls above will present a combination of members that can be re-used and some that will need to be replaced/retrofitted. Hotel lobbies need to be designed for higher occupancy loads that the guest rooms of the higher floors. As a result, some existing floor framing members that are in good condition may still need additional members sistered to increase their strength.

Many of the 2nd and 3rd floor walls will likely need to be demolished and replaced, as well as the third-floor framing and the roof framing. Some walls may be found to be in usable condition, but would need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis after the finishes are removed. Any walls that are replaced would be framed with traditional 2x6 members at 16” on center. The size of the original floor joists (2”x12”) would still be adequate to support new guestroom floor loads by today’s standards. If any floor joists were found to be in good condition, they could potentially be re-used in the same application.

Lateral System Per IBC requirements, the building’s lateral resistance would also need to be upgraded during the renovation. If the upper levels are replaced with new wall and floor/roof framing, they could easily be framed in a way that provides lateral resistance. Wood sheathing would be added to new exterior walls, floors and roof levels. Some select interior walls might also need to be sheathed in order to complete the lateral stability of the upper floors.

The exterior brick is unreinforced, and we are unable to calculate the lateral resistance without brick testing. If this brick testing is performed, the existing brick walls may be able to be used as part of the lateral system with new connections between the floor, roof and exterior walls. If the walls cannot be counted to provide lateral support for the building, the most cost effective way to support these walls would be to frame new 2x4 walls with ½” wood sheathing inside the existing brick walls. The brick could then be tied back into the wooden shearwalls for support for out of plane loads. It would be possible to expose some sections of interior brick based on the amount of new wood shearwalls installed in each direction.

The existing 12” concrete foundation wall at the perimeter of the building can be counted on to provide lateral resistance at the ground level. Various new connections would be required to transfer seismic and wind forces from the new and existing framing into the existing concrete foundation wall. All shearwalls on the floor above need to be followed down to the foundation. Further exploration of the basement would be required to determine if there are any interior structural walls that can act as shearwalls. Most likely new concrete slab footings with wood shearwalls above would need to be installed in the basement., requiring the demolition of the existing slab at these locations.


A



Summary and Costs Overall, the exterior brick walls and foundation of this building is likely structurally capable of providing the support necessary for a major renovation. The interior structure would need many upgrades and replacements to replace damaged and deteriorated members, as well as bring the structure up to recognized building code and life safety standards.

The attached cost estimate assumes the following:

1) Demolition and replacement of the second and third floor framing as well as the roof framing. 2) The first-floor walls, joists and beams are re-usable with minor upgrades. 3) Brick exterior walls are supported by new interior wood shearwalls (pending brick testing). 4) The existing foundation is adequate to support the renovated structure with the addition of new

connections and hardware. 5) New floor plans would be similar to the existing layout.

I. EXISTING CONDITIONS

The purpose of this section is to give a brief overview of the building and building systems to provide context for sections to follow. It is not intended to present a detailed room by room description of building components or building systems.

A. General Building Information

1. History The facility is approximately 34,000 square feet in total area. The building was constructed in 1911 on the corner of Main Street and Missouri in Deer Lodge.

2. Building Use

The original use of the building was for a hotel on the upper two floors with a restaurant and retail space on the main level. Currently the building is unused.

B. Mechanical System Information

1. Heating Heating was provided by a steam boiler located within the basement. Heating was delivered to terminal units throughout the building by a two-pipe steam system that was routed within “crawl” spaces and then up vertically throughout the building.

2. Cooling

The building currently does not have any cooling systems.

3. Ventilation The ventilation air is provided to the building though operable windows.

4. Terminal Units

Heating was provided throughout the building by steam radiators. Some of the existing radiators appears to have been removed at some point.

5. Controls

No apparent control system was evident and given the age of the building it is believe that control was done by manual valve at each terminal unit.


A




6. Plumbing Much of the plumbing systems are still in place, however the system is old and not usable due to the age and lack of up keep. Given the age of the building it is believed that galvanized piping may exist which is not allowed by current codes.

7. Kitchen

There was previously a kitchen within the building. No mechanical related kitchen equipment was present for evaluation.

C. Electrical System Information

1. Electrical Service The main electrical service to the building was originally derived from an overhead mast located in the alley. The transformers have since been removed by the electrical utility, and there is currently no power on site. The overhead mast feeds a utility meter section in the basement into two electrical gutters that feed enclosed circuit breakers and fused disconnect switches. The majority of the service equipment was manufactured by Trumbull Electric, which no longer manufactures electrical equipment. The service equipment is antiquated, in poor condition, and does not meet current building codes and standards. Replacement parts for this panel would be difficult to find, and would be costly compared to newer panelboards.

2. Branch Panelboards

The majority of the branch circuits throughout the building are being supplied via fuse boards. Manufacturer labels were not present on most, but some were made by Apron Hart and also Bryant. Both of these manufacturers no longer make electrical equipment today. They are antiquated, in poor condition, and do not meet current building codes and standards. It is recommended that these be replaced in their entirety.

3. Receptacles and Branch Circuits In general, there is a lack of adequate receptacles and branch circuits throughout the building. Depending on what the intended use of the building is for, most areas would typically need to double the amount of receptacles installed to account for increased modern electrical loads. There are no equipment grounding conductors installed throughout the building, which is not compliant with current electrical codes


A




and standards. There is visible evidence of ‘knob-and-tube’ wiring along with conductors with braided insulation. All of this should be removed in its entirety. There are no GFCI, AFCI, or tamper resistant receptacles installed in the building, which is not compliant with current electrical codes and standards.

4. Lighting The majority of the lighting throughout the building consists of surface or pendant mounted incandescent fixtures along with some 4’-0”, surface mounted fixtures, with T12 fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts. These fixtures are antiquated and mostly in poor condition. In general, all light fixtures located within the building are poor in energy efficiency compared to newer technologies. There are no egress lighting fixtures located in the building. New emergency egress lighting fixtures would need to be installed to meet current egress lighting codes and standards. Exterior lighting is minimal with only a few lights being installed at exterior doors. Current codes would require adding light fixtures at all exterior doors as well as stairs. There is a lack of exit signage throughout the building. Lighting is being controlled in all spaces with toggle and pushbutton switches. This does not meet current energy codes.

5. Fire Alarm System The building does not have a central fire alarm system installed throughout. There were some stand-alone type smoke detectors left in the building, but they were in poor condition and should be removed in their entirety. A new fire alarm system would have to be installed to meet current building codes and standards.


A




6. Telecommunications Some telecommunications cabling is installed within the building. Telephone enters the building in the basement and is terminated at blocks in a wood enclosure. It appears that any data transfer was made through the phone system over Category 3 cabling. There was no visible cable management system in the building. This infrastructure would not be adequate for a modern facility.

II. RECOMMENDATION

A. Existing systems

Based on the condition of all the existing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems in addition that none of these systems have been in operation for over twenty plus years, our recommendation is a full replacement of all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems throughout the building.

B. New Mechanical Systems Based on the desire to have a building that serves multiple types of spaces, any of the following systems would provide the needed zoning and control capabilities. A Variable Air Volume system was considered but given the wide variation of spaces and the limited existing space available for mechanical systems, this system type was eliminated.

1. Mechanical Option #1 – Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) –

Water Cooled This option would provide a closed system utilizing high efficiency gas fired boilers and a cooling tower system to generate the heating and cooling medium. The air-handlers will be 100% outside air (OSA) units with energy recovery that would deliver neutral air (~70oF) to the building to meet ventilation requirements. The OSA unit would incorporate a heat recovery device to pre-heat and pre-cool outside air using building relief/exhaust air and would include a gas-fired heating section to further temper the air. The zone VRF fan coil units would be located above the ceiling, within or adjacent to each zone. This system will also be protected from freezing with a 33% propylene glycol solution, and the pumping system would utilize variable flow pumping with the use of variable frequency drives (VFD’s). This option is very efficient because it can transfer energy through the condenser water loop, from zones that are in need of cooling to zones that are in need of heating, thereby reducing the amount of source energy consumed. During mild weather, the quantity of heat pumps in heating mode and those in


A




cooling mode offset each other, resulting in very low heating/cooling source energy usage.

The boilers, pumps, condensing units would be located within the basement. The cooling tower and the air handling unit would be located on the roof.

2. Mechanical Option #2 – 4 Pipe Fan Coil Units with Dedicated

outside air units

This option would provide a four pipe fan coil system that would utilize an air-cooled water chiller and high efficiency gas-fired boilers. The air-handlers would be 100% outside air (OSA) units with energy recovery that would deliver neutral air to non-centralized fan coil units located throughout the building. The OSA units would have energy recovery device to pre-heat and pre-cool outside air using building relief/exhaust air, and would have heating and chilled water coil to further temper the air. The fan coil units would condition room air mixed with the neutral outside air provided by the OSA air handlers to satisfy the zone. Individual four-pipe fan coil units will be located above the ceiling, within or adjacent to each zone. High efficiency, gas-fired boilers will provide heating requirements for the heating water loop to supply the system. A pumping system would circulate the heating water throughout the building. An air cooled chiller will provide chilled water requirements for the system and a pumping system would circulate the chilled water throughout the building. Both systems would be protected from freezing with a 33% propylene glycol mixture.

The boilers, heating pumps, and cooling pumps would be located within the basement. The air cooled chiller and the air handling unit would be located on the roof.

3. Controls

Final controls will be dependent on the final system option desired but either through a Building management system or through packaged equipment controls the system will be a modern computerized control system.

4. Plumbing

The new plumbing systems will be determined based on the final building plans. Lavatories, water closets, sinks, showers, and other fixtures will be provided as required for the new layout. Faucets will wither be manual or automatic as determined in coordinate with the


A




building owner. A new hot water heating system with recirculation capabilities shall be provided.

5. Kitchen

Based on the restaurant the mechanical equipment will be determined in coordination with code, the cooking equipment, and owner’s desired operations.

C. New Electrical Systems

1. Electrical Service and Main Distribution Panel The existing electrical service entrance has exceeded its life expectancy and should be removed in its entirety. A new overhead or pad-mounted service should be installed by the electrical utility. From there, the service will enter a CT cabinet and utility meter section. A main, service-rated disconnect switch should be provided at the exterior of the building. This main disconnect switch could then feed a new Main Distribution Panel located within the facility. It is estimated that the new electrical service would be rated for approximately 800 amps at 277/480 volt, 3-phase power; assuming this configuration is available from the serving electrical utility.

2. Branch Panelboards It is recommended that all branch panels within the building be removed in their entirety. New branch panelboards should be installed throughout, along with new electrical feeders. New panels should be sized with 20% spare capacity in amperage and circuit breaker poles for possible future expansions or renovations.

3. Receptacles and Branch Circuits It is our recommendation that all existing receptacles and branch circuits within the building be removed in their entirety. The amount of new receptacles installed in the facility should be adequate for current and future electrical loads. All new branch circuits should be installed per current electrical codes and standards, which contains including equipment grounding conductors in all branch circuits, and installing GFCI/AFCI/tamper resistant receptacles where required by current codes.

4. Lighting It is recommended that all existing light fixtures throughout the building be removed in their entirety. These light fixtures should be


A




replaced with more efficient light sources such as LED, linear fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps with electronic ballasts. Light levels should conform to current Illumination Engineering Society (IES) standards. In order to reduce energy consumption, occupancy sensors and daylight harvesting sensors can be installed in individual spaces. In addition, exterior lights should be controlled via photocell or time clock. 24-hour per day operating spaces such as lobbies, stairwells, corridors, etc. do not have to have occupancy sensor or timed off control if desired. Life safety egress lighting needs to be added throughout the interior of the building and also at exterior doors, ramps, and stairs. New exit signs will have to be provided throughout the building to meet current building codes and standards also.

5. Fire Alarm System A new digital, addressable fire alarm system should be installed to meet current building codes and standards. The new fire alarm system should provide full coverage in the building for detection and for notification as required. Notification devices should include both visual and audible notifications throughout.

6. Telecommunications It is recommended that the existing telecommunications system components should be removed in their entirety. Depending on the future use of the building, both copper and fiber optic lines may be an option to bring into the facility. New Category 5e or 6 cabling should be installed throughout the building in order to provide flexible options moving into the future. Installing cable tray or J-hooks could be used to provide cable management.
