ADA Assessment & Transition Plan

Addendum #1

 Can the City provide a list of the 64 parks and any other locaƟons that are intended to be evaluated for ADA

compliance as part of this project? Providing this lisƟng will ensure that all consultants to provide costs for

the same scope of work. There is a list on the City’s Bike Map on the website that shows 63 parks, but we

would like conﬁrmaƟon of all park locaƟons to be included in this project (City’s Bike Map was found here:

Bike-Map-11-15-21.pdf (dublinohiousa.gov)).

The list of parks noted on the City’s website are intended to be evaluated for ADA compliance. Riverside

Crossing Park has east and west sides of the Scioto River (including the Link Pedestrian Bridge), which is

technically considered two components/parks needing to be evaluated. Hence the 64 park reference.

 Does the City have a budget established for this project?

The budget for this project is $100,000

 Can the City conﬁrm if all sidewalks, trails, and shared-use paths within parks should be included and

evaluated for ADA compliance? If so, what is the mileage of sidewalks and trails to be evaluated? The City’s

Bike Map (here: Bike-Map-11-15-21.pdf (dublinohiousa.gov)) lists “more than 135 miles” of recreaƟonal

path system. Please conﬁrm the mileage of sidewalks and trails to be assumed for evaluaƟon of ADA

compliance.

Only hard surface trails and shared use paths that are within the boundaries of parks (including any curb

ramps) should be included in the evaluaƟon. These can be located and measured using the City’s GIS

system located here.

 If the sidewalks, trails, and shared-use paths will be evaluated, should these only be evaluated within park

boundaries for the parks included in the scope of work? There are many shared use path locaƟons shown in

the City’s Bikeway and Park System online GIS informaƟon (here: Dublin Ohio Bikeway and Park System

(arcgis.com)) that run along roadways/are within the public rights-of-way and appear to fall outside of park

boundaries.

Please refer to the previous answer. No bikeways or shared use paths that fall outside of park boundaries

are included in this study.

 If shared-use paths that run along roadways or are within the public rights-of-way should be included for

evaluaƟon, should curb ramps and pedestrian street crossings along these paths also be evaluated for ADA

compliance? Where these paths intersect signalized intersecƟons, should pedestrian signal equipment be

included for evaluaƟon?

Please refer to the answers to the above quesƟons.

 Dublin’s recreation and park facilities are very diverse. Are there specific parks, playgrounds, buildings or

roads that should be emphasized as part of the fee proposal?

All amenities within the park boundaries are to be included in this study, to include playgrounds,

buildings, roads, hard surface paths, shelter houses, restrooms, etc. One special note, the Dublin

Community Recreation Center and Kaltenbach Community Center are to be included as well.

 How involved would you like the community engagement program? It can be as easy as two informative

meetings or in-depth with interviews, surveys and multiple in-person meetings for input.

Consideration for the scope of community engagement should be proposed based on experiences of each

firm responding to the RFP. It is the City’s intent to engage the community as much as possible while

staying within the budget for the project.

 Has a stakeholder group been established for the project or will it be the city council?

The steering committee for this project will be City staff, which will be the primary contact for any

stakeholder interviews (i.e.: Community Inclusion Advisory Committee and others.) This project is

intended as an administrative management and budgeting tool.

 Is there a deadline for deliverables on the project?

There is no current deadline for deliverables on this project. Each is expected to be different based on the

proposals submitted, and will be evaluated individually.
