The evaluation of proposals and the selection of a development team by the SRA and SHA will require the cooperation of both agencies and an easily understood evaluation process. To accomplish this, we -recommend that each member of the Authorities use a "score card!' to evaluate the proposals. We also suggest that the Authorities meet together on September 25th (at the SHA meeting) to discuss the evaluation process and to take a preliminary look at the proposals. The first week of October, the Authorities shoul d meet again at a special meeting to conduct inter views (if necessary) and hopefully to agree on the selection of the Development Team. The score card is going to be an important tool, and deserves special atten- tion. Therefore, we have come up with a draft for you to review and to suggest changes. A score card should be formally adopted at the first, joint meeting on Sept, 11, The score card has 100 points. The "perfect" developer proposal would get a score of 100. Each proposal will be evaluated in accordance with the Request for Proposals which has been distributed during the past rOnth. As you can see, various aspects of each proposal will be weighed differently, depending on their importance. You should thin], about the scoring system - whether these are the things that should be evaluated, whether other items should be added, and how many points should be given to each item. Attached is the score card and the request for proposals. Please call on either of us with any questions or comments. CC: Mayor Jean A.

The Authorities reserve the right to reject any and all proposals. IAL SalemEs Redevelopment TELEPHONE 744-6900 Authority ONE SALEM GREEN, SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS 01970 744-4580 Gentlemen: In iry absence tonight I would like to pass on rffy evaluation of last. week's neeting with DCA and also an opinion regarding today's selection of a developnent team. First let m say that there was no way to even discuss the issue of their turning dimm the Pasquanna/Scagliotti Team as the chosen developer. Their points, I feel, were valid: 1) on grade parking is a firm requireffent. of 667 housing; 2) the Scagliotti plan showed no detail whatsoever of the conmunity room and in fact "it!' did show below grade parking; 3) the density of the proposed housing did not even neet the State requirenents as far as being too clustered and too close to property boundaries. Conversation with these mn with the "mney" displayed their feeling that since this corrbined public and private housing venture was a first, they were not interested in entertaining the choice we had nade. For them to condomour choice would leave them open to criticim all over the State and it would also establish new guidelines for future developments of this kind. Frankly, they could not understand why we, knowing the guidelines, could have chosen the one architect who had not followed thern. Now, regarding tonight's choice, it is a difficult decision especially considering each developer has sorre very unique and interesting approach to the site. I have arrived at my choice through analysis of various points which I found to be necessary for the overall package. I am not sure how Salern oriented Kieth Properties would be and I do not feel their proposal to be as inforiTative as I would like to have seen. My unprofessional opinion of the Robertsen-Corinthian, Ltd. proposal is that, architecturally, it might be weak. Also, their associates could lend assistance they ndght need. I am not certain that they understand how 667 requirements can blow an ordinary budget out of proportion. -2- Stern-Tise seems to have the qualifications and experience.,both development wise and architecturally,that this unique project needs. They have proven themselves to Salem in the quality construction that has already taken place in Salem by them. The point that they made regarding building 667 housing first was no problem with the DCA and as was stated at our Boston meeting, this would most likely occu no matter who the builder is, primarily because of site restrict-ions. I am sorry I cannot be with you tonight to formally vote on this matter and ask you to take my opinions in consideration when it cones time to nuke the final decision.

They are three stories high and all have ammenities such as fireplaces, yards, greenhouse projections, wood flooring, etc. Our backgrounds are as follows : We have been in the building business for the past 25 years and we have a demonstrated record of success. Two of the four principals , Matthew W. Stern and Roger W. Stern have recently been in- volved in the construction of two high rise developments , namely; 100 Centre Plaza, 100 Centre Street, Brookline, Mass. MHFA #7o-8-N HUD #023-35-111 1550 Beacon Plaza, 1550 Beacon Street, Brookline, Mass. MHFA #70-90-N HUD #023-16-NI The building at 100 Centre Plaza has 214 units and the building at 1550 Plaza contains 180 units and 8 Medical Offices. The principals are currently in the last stage of Rent-up at the latest building, Known as; 120 Centre Court , 120 Centre Street, Brookine, Mass. HUD #023-35121 Sec. 8 #MA06-HO58-008 GNMA Commitment #901330 120 Centre Court has 125 units , of the 125 units, there are 17, 2 bedroom townhouses , 3, 2 bedroom flats and the remainder are one bedroom and zero bedroom units. The building at 120 Centre Court has been finished on schedule and all that remains to be done is some residual landscaping in the spring. In the category of design excellence, the principals have been the recipients of numerous awards , along with the architect who designed 100 Centre Plaza and 1550 Beacon Plaza. The awards have ranged from systems building awards to an award from the Boston Society of Architects for design excellence in an urban environment. The developers have sufficient financial capacity to enable them to carry out M.r. Christopher G. Olney/ 21 September , 1979/ Page 2 the proposed project. The partners have been involved either.,�.-ointly or individually in the following conventionally financed projects: 191-207 Park Drive, Boston. 9 Buildings Corner of Charles and Revere Streets , Boston. I Building 20-32 Marshall Street, Brookline. 3 Buildings 137 Sewall Avenue, Brookline, I Building 131 Sewall Avenue, Brookline. I Building, There have been no defaults in any of the conventionally financed building that the partners have constructed. The. thrid member of the team is Jeffery A. Stern. He has been engaged in property menagement full time for the past 13 months and previously on a part time basis for the past 5 years. He is also a licensed Real Estate Broker in the State of Massachusetts. He received his degree, a B.S. in Real Estate and Urban De- velopment, from Syracuse University. He has continued his education a� Harvard University by taking an evening course at the Graduate School of Design. The course was entitled, "Legal problems in Construction." The fourth member of the developer team is Stephen E. Tise , R.A. Before e5tab- lishing his own architectural firm, Stephen Tise was employed by STull Associates , Inc. as Design Director and New Business Director, Development. He received his certificate from the Boston Architectural Center and attended the Rhode Island School of Design. His awards include; I The Royal Barry Wills Design Award Master Builders Awards , BAC BSA Design Award Boston Society of Architects Traveling Scholarship, 1968, European Town Planning Loeb Fellowship, 1976, Harvard University Our firm is comprised of the following principals: Jeffrey A. Stern , President Stephen E. Tise, Vice President Matthew W. Stern, Treasurer Roger W. Stern, Clerk As you are aware, Stern-Tise Salem Group, Inc. is currently finishing construction on 8 Townhouse Condominiums in Downtown Salem, at the Corner of Ash and Federal Streets . We currently hold the option on Parcel RC-2 and we intend to exercise that option late this fall . We intend to costruct 14-18 townhouse units along Federal Street and an additional 8-12 units along the West side of the The North Greenway, at a later date. The -.am will be organized along very specific lines. Stephen Tise, R.A. will have entire responsibility for the design of the 667 elderly housing, as well as the market housing. Jeffery A. Stern shall be responsible for securing all needed permits and approvals for the market housing. Further he will be avail - able for additional support on the elderly housing project, should that be nec- essary. The development team has a full range of complimentary services available, such Mr. Christopher G. Olney/ 21 September , 1979/ Page 3 legal , financial , consulting, accounting, and any other professional that may be needed at any time during the development process . The development team will separate the two phases of this project. In other words , we will sever the market housing from the elderly housing. Page 3 Section g of the RFP sets out the ''Simultaneous criterion" of the 2 types of housing and we do not propose to follow that criterion for the following reasons : I The elderly housing must be built first , to act as a screen for the mar- ket rate housing. The present esthetic perception that one would have, standing in the I iving room of market rate housI66;,'i�ds�i�shield the view of the jail and Parker Brothers Warehouse. Ae site, as is , is unacceptable for market housing. Once the elderly housing is up , a totally different environment will be created and market housing can then proceed in a completely different environment, and; 2) The elderly housing portion of the project will be publically bid , using Union Tradesmen. The market housing will be constructed by non-Union Tradesmen. This is necessary because of the different wage scales . The market rate housing becomes financiAlly non feasible when union labor is used. 3) When projects which are this close in physical proximityipcannot utilize labor from different sources. The potential for conflict is too great. Therefore, the elderly housing must be allowed to substantially complete, and most the tradesmen gone, before the market housing with its own labor source gets underway. This is perhaps the most critical aspect of our proposal . We are pleased to give the following references: Mr. John A. Dwinell BayBank Harvard Trust Co. P.O.

ATTN: Josiah P. Huntoon, Vice President The First National Bank of Boston 100 Federal Street Boston, Mass. ATTN: Donald Miller , Vice President Mr. Christopher G. Olney/ 21 September, 1979/ Page 4 Our proposal design has been worked out by Stephen E. Tise , R.A. Mr .Tise was responsible for the Master Development Plan that came out of Stull Associates , AIA. , for Salem's redevelopment proposal . The plan that Mondev Co. , was pro- posing was worked out by Mr. Tise and ti�en Mondev took that master plan and formulated their own plans from that. Mr. Tise is the one person, outside of the members of the Redevelopment Authority that is the most familiar with Salem's plan. Alsu,, it should be pointed out that several years ago, when Salem was receiving it 's award from the Boston Society of Architects , sitting at the same table was� Mr . Matthew and Roger Stern accepting their award for 3550 Beacon Plaza.. ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION COST FOR THE PROJECT: The estimated cost of construction for the elderly houisng can be expected to be the maximum figure allowed by DCA. To expect otherwise would %e folly, The per-unit-construction cost allowed by DCA is exceptionally . low and therefore the entire budget can be expected to be used. Any savings would be expected to be pushed back into the building to upgrade. The cost of site improvements is diffi,c ult to determine at this, early dat e. However the scope of public improvements which we would like to see is as follows; 1) A connecting walkway from parcel RC-lA to parcel R-1 , to finali,ze the pedestrian link to the downtown area. Some retaining walls on the North side of the site. A small decked area adjacent to the elderly but1ding would be ideal and some increased landscaptng, highly desirable. We have seen on Federal Street wh,at some trees can do for the entire streetscape. The cost of the private housing is difficult to pin down at this date, but the ballpark figure of $650,000.00 - $750,000.00 would be a fair representatilon of estimated construction cost. ESTIMATED SCHEDULE FOR TOTAL DEVELOPMENT: The elderly portion of the development will be in strict- accordance with DCAks timetable. As you are aware, they determine at what speed things wM happen, and therefore we will meet or exceed every date and deadline, to insure that the project moves ahead as swiftly as possible. To give exact dates for accomplishing permits , etc is impossible at this po int.. Experience has shown that it is hard to estimate DRB, SRA, SHA, City Council Board of Appeals, engineering, Building-Dept. , Fire Dept. and electrical dept.. approval time. The only thing we can guarantee, is that the project will proceed with maximum speed and minimal delay. PERMITS , VARIANCES, ETC. : The permits , variances etc needed to proceed to completion are as follows. (not ,in any particular order) M,r. Christopher G. Olney/ 21 September, 1979/ Page 5 1) Zoning Board of Appeals fo- setbacks , parkinq variance, side yard , etc. 2) SRA Approval 3) DRB Approval 4) Probable City Council Approval 5) City Engineer 6) Building Dept. 7) Fire Dept. 8) City Electrician 9) SHA Approval 10) DCA Approval 11) Financial Institution Approval RESALE PRICE OF REAL ESTATE: The resale price of real estate containing public housing to the SHA will be maximum allowed by DCA. (Refer to Estimated Construction Cost) . In order .to insure, the best possible buildiing all savings should be returned to the build- Ing to upgrade whereever possible. ESTIMATED TAX RETURN: The elderly portion will be tax exempt, since it will be owned by a public agency. Therefore the return will be zero, unless for some reason the Authority makes an "in lieu of" payment. The private portion of the project is estimated to return between $18,000.00 to $$25,000.00 a year in property taxes , at todays rate, The impact on Municipal Services will be fairly minimal . The elderly portion will have no school child- ren and will use police, fire, emergency medical services. Water and sewer will also be used. The capacities of these services are adequate in our opinion, although exact routing of water and sewer will have to be worked out with the City Engineer. When the North Greenway was drawn, we believe the utilities for a project of the magnitude were allowed for . Trash would be expected to be removed by a private collection complany. The market rate housing will use less municipal services , but is expected to add some children to the school system. Present experience says that not every unit will have children residing in it. FINANCIAL COMMITMENT FOR CONVENTIONAL HbusING: Our evidence of Financial commitment for the conventional housing is that our bank is currently backing the oiri�inbl 8 .unIts we are building and our dis- cussions with them are that they stand willing to finance our next series of units when we are ready. M�,-. '! Christopher G. Olney/ 21 September, 1979/ Page 6 MISCELLANEOUS : Present plans call for 12 conventional housing units on the site and for the elderly housing to meet or exceed all physical requirements by local authorities and DCA. The exception is the parking requirements . We feel that the elderly requirement of 1/3 space per unit , and the conventional housing requirement of I ' spaces per unit are excessive. We would propose .25 spaces per unit for 2 the elderly hous1ng and 1 space per unit for the market housing . Our present experiences in elderly houisng located close to an urban area prove that even .20 spaces per unit are adequate. (Specific figures available upon request.) Further our Townhouse experiences are showing that 1-1 . 25 spaces are adequate. One of the major attractions of living in an urban area is the decreased dependence upon the a utomob! I e and this is ref I ected in the I i festy I es of persons availing themselves of housing such as the type which we specialize in providing elderly and townhouse. We take the word townhouse at its literal meaning, and take great pride in the fact that we build in downtown areas .

Housing Authority The Salem Redevelopment Authority 27 Charter Street Salem, Massachusetts 01970 Attn: 14r. Christopher Olney Project Administrator We are pleased to present our qualifications as architects for tile proposed elderly housing to be built in Salem as part of the DCA 667 Program, Round #3. This brochure supplements our earlier letter of interest sent to the Salem housing Authority in January, 1979. The joint venture of Peirce, Pierce & Kramer/Stephen Tise & Associates, Inc. is an architectural and planning resource well qualified to provide compre- hensive and imaginative design services for elderly housing. The firm's ex- perience includes all facets of project control, fast track design and con- struction techniques, system applications for low and high rise developments, as well as the rehabilitation and adaptive re-use of existing structures. Project responsibilities assumed by the prIncipals have included new and re- habilitated housing in a variety of Massachusetts communities. Our primary aim is to provide developers , corimunity organizations, local housing author- ities, and systems producers with a resource devoted to high quality and re- sponsive design. Through our experience in housing management and research, we are able to bridge the gap between short term design/construction concerns and long term issues involving energy conservation, building maintenance and tenant satisfaction. Housing developments designed by the principals have re- ceived design awards from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, The New York Concrete Industry Board, House and Home Magazine and The Boston Society of Architects. ',los-t recent' ly, our firm has been selected by the Watertown Housing Authority and Department of Community Affairs, as the architects for Watertown. 's pro-os- p ea elderly housing under Round ',.*'2 of DCA's 667 Program. Site analysis and selec- ti--n is Currently underway with the anticipation of a construction start during In the pages -which follow, we have summarized projects which may have relevance Go your elderly program in Salem. These have been divided into categories for 71ew Construction and Rehabilitation. We will appreciate the opportunity to meet with Salem Housirg Authority and The Redevelopment Authority to learn more about your programs and to document how we can best serve then. Please let us know if we can orovide more information at this time. Sincerely, PEIRCE, PIERCE & MUERJ STEPHEN TIS-E ASSOC US, INC. (J Stephen E.
