II. Project Description

7) Description and Rationale: Provide a brief project description and rationale (one page maximum).

This request is for $2,100,000 in state bond funding to pre-design, design, construct, furnish, equip and complete related work for mandated and energy efficiency updates to the Plymouth Ice Center located in the City of Plymouth in Hennepin County. The City has $2,119,000 in matching funds available for the project. The Plymouth Ice Center (PIC) is one of the biggest facilities in the state, providing 120,000 square feet of indoor space. Amenities include three ice sheets, meeting rooms, concessions, locker rooms, and seating for 1,700. In addition, the facility is one of the busiest ice centers in the state of Minnesota serving as a local, regional and state venue for practices, games, tournaments and events. In 2012, the facility hosted over 20 tournaments, 400 teams, and 450,000 visitors bringing in an estimated $3.5 million into the local and state economy. PIC is also the home of Wayzata Youth Hockey Association, which is the largest youth hockey association in the United States with a membership of over 1,300. The Plymouth Ice Center renovation and remodel project will help to serve the long-term demands of regional, state and national amateur sports. Specifically, PIC renovations will not only provide energy efficiencies, but will provide the appropriately sized and safe amenities to meet the needs, trends and standards expected of first class venues.

Some of the more significant components of the project include the state mandated transition of R22 Freon to an ammonia-based system; the energy efficiency conversion of an Olympic sized ice sheet to professional size; roof repairs; parking lot enhancements; and furnishings and equipment updates.

8) Square Footage: For new construction projects, identify the new square footage

planned. For remodeling, renovation or expansion projects, identify the total square footage of current facilities, the square footage to be renovated, and/or the new square footage to be added.

Current facility square footage = 120,000 sq. ft.

Square footage of renovated area = 85,000 sq. ft.

IV. Other Project Information

10) Project schedule. Identify the date (month/year) when construction crews are expected to first arrive on site, and the date (month/year) when construction will be completed with a certificate of occupancy.

Anticipated Start Date = July, 2014

Anticipated Occupancy Date = September, 2015

(For facilities projects, this information will also be used to calculate an inflation cost, using the Building Projects Inflation Schedule posted on the Minnesota Management and Budget website.

11) Pre-design. For projects with a total construction cost of $1.5 million or more:

Has a project predesign been completed? No

If so, has the predesign been submitted to the Commissioner of

Administration? NA

12) State operating subsidies. Identify any new or additional state operating dollars

that will be requested for this project. None 13) Sustainable building guidelines. Discuss how the project meets or exceeds the

Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines established under Minnesota Statutes, section 16B.325, which may be found at http://www.msbg.umn.edu/. These are now mandatory for all new buildings or major renovations receiving state bond funding.

Sustainable design and preservation of existing natural resources is an important element to construction and/or renovation. The City of Plymouth is committed to implementing sustainable standards and elements within the project. Some of the elements will take advantage of current sustainable and energy efficient practices already implemented at the facility. The design/renovation team will plan and track the operation achievement of the performance criteria throughout the process to assure that the facility meets all of the state and B3 standards. The project will:

Exceed the state energy code by at least 30 percent Focus on achieving the lowest possible lifetime costs Encourage continual energy conservation improvements Include air quality and lighting standards Create and maintain a healthy environment Facilitate productivity improvements Specify ways to reduce material costs Consider the long-term operating costs of the building

14) Sustainable building designs. Explain the extent to which the project will use

sustainable building designs, if applicable.

The project will follow and implement the State of Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines (B3) as required throughout the renovation project. Specific sustainable building designs will be determined in the pre-design and design processes. The project will likely be focused on the following sustainable guidelines: indoor energy and atmosphere; indoor environmental quality; and materials and waste.

15) Resolution of support and priority designation. Has the governing body of the applicant passed a resolution of support (which indicates the project’s priority number if the applicant is submitting multiple requests)? Yes

If so, please attach the signed resolution. If not, please indicate when the resolution

will be coming (and forward the resolution to MMB when available):

Attached is a signed resolution of support from the Plymouth City Council for the Plymouth Ice Center Renovation Project.
