Dear Stephen:
A Reason to Survive (ARTS) is pleased to submit this proposal to the City of National City to work with
local high school students to design custom bike corrals and coordinate fabrication. For the purposes of
this proposal, the project will be referred to as Bike Corrals Project.
Bike Corrals Project
PROJECT OVERVIEW
In collaboration with local high school students, ARTS will host a series of workshops to create
custom bike corrals for the City of National City. During these workshops, students will visit
prospective sites, create concept sketches, research bike rack design, study rules and
compliance, create cardboard and wire models, and build full-scale metal prototypes.
II. SCOPE OF SERVICES
A. Design
ARTS will host a series of workshops to engage local high school students to design
custom bike racks.
Included in the design phase is the following:
• Concept and design workshop series at the ARTS Center's Industrial Arts Shop.
• Design meetings with the client/staff to review & approve design option(s).
• One (1) to four (4) bike corral designs.
• Preparation of approved designs final specifications.
• Managing and involving youth interns and all aspects of youth -based design
process.
• Additional requested changes or services would be billed as Additional Services.
B. Fabrication
Prototyping will be completed either at the ARTS Center or the Sweetwater Welding
Academy. Fabrication of the final 20 pieces will be outsourced to local metal fabricators.
Each bike rack corral end will include a secure metal base plate to allow for mounting onto
concrete or asphalt using heavy duty, stainless steel threaded bolts.
