Saneholtz, P.E. Site Selection Thomas A. Stuckey, Construction Administration EMERGENCY SHELTER RELOCATION/EXPANSION PDG has been working with The Cocoon since 2011 to expand the existing 12 bed emergency shelter that does not meet the functional and security needs of residents. The Cocoon wants to expand the Shelter to 24 beds for victims of domestic violence. The Shelter is an emergency shelter for victims and their families and provides supportive services to victims of domestic violence seeking assistance even if they are not a resident of the shelter. PDG analyzed several potential locations for relocation of the shelter, as well as expanding the current facility. The Cocoon Board of Directors and staff finally determined to purchase a former restaurant and Elks lodge to renovate for Emergency Shelter and Cocoon client services and administrative offices. The purchase was contingent on rezoning. PDG prepared the rezoning request, which was approved by the City of Bowling Green. PDG helped The Cocoon obtain an appropriation in the Ohio Capital Budget to fund pre-development activities to apply for capital funding through the Ohio Housing Finance Agency for relocation/expansion of the shelter. A preliminary building/site design and cost estimate was developed to apply for the funding. An application for funding was submitted, but not awarded. Subsequently, PDG worked with more...

Emergency Shelter Relocation/Expansion The Cocoon to obtain a second appropriation in the Ohio Capital Budget. Eight hundred thousand dollars ($800,000) has been appropriated for renovation of the former restaurant and Elks facility for an expanded emergency shelter. PDG was engaged by The Cocoon to provide architectural and engineering design and construction administration for renovation of the building for an emergency shelter and administrative and client services offices. Site improvements to enhance security were also designed as part of the project. The first phase of the project, the emergency shelter, is completed. Phase I of the project - Emergency Shelter - was completed on time and on budget. was critical because the lease for the former emergency shelter expired in May, 2017. Open House was held for the new emergency shelter April 30, through May 7, 2017. The second phase, administrative and client services offices, is pending until additional funding is obtained. PDG is assisting The Cocoon with additional funding applications. The Cocoon is currently conducting a capital funding campaign. Funding for site improvements was obtained by The Cocoon from the Attorney General s Victims of Crime Assistance (VOCA) Funds. A new security fence has been installed, as well as exterior lighting and security cameras. Funding for interior fire protection has also been approved.

Wright, PE, LEED AP BD+C The Oregon Municipal Complex is made up of 6 different buildings each with a different use and operating schedule. PDG was tasked as the designer and construction administration team to convert the entire facility to a sustainable geothermal design during the summer of 2015. The project was partially funded by the Lucas County Port Authority and the Ohio State Depart of Administration Energy Services. One bore field (25 vertical bores at 425 each) was used under an existing parking area that was temporarily vacated while the interior direct expansion and chilled water systems were removed and renovated to be all operated from the one geothermal plant heat exchanger. Each building had different existing equipment and infrastructure that had to be implemented into the new system. The existing controls had very limited ability to control setback, humidity, and temperature so the new system incorporated new digital controls that will allow more end users control of their individual spaces. more...

City Municipal Complex Geothermal The two largest obstacles and challenges were coordinating the construction with the occupants, and the extremely tight timeline for project of this size and scope. In basically a three month period this project had to convert the existing systems and replace a chiller, 14 geothermal heat pumps, 4 system pumps, a geothermal VRF system, water to air AH, and a bore field, all while day to day operations continued. This project has since been reviewed and accepted by the DOAS for conformity to the expected sustainable energy improvement design.

Our experts conducted the energy analyses for the projects, provided cost estimates, and prepared the funding applications. All of the projects were selected for EECBG grant funding. Projects include: Wood County Office Building Window Replacements $512,845 was funded to replace 78 inefficient windows in the County Administration Building. The windows were removed and stripped back to the existing structure. They were then replaced with more energy efficient windows that have a low U-value for minimal heat transfer, high R-value to resist heat flow, low e-coating to reflect solar heat from outside and ambient heat from inside, adequate tinting, proper insulation, and aluminum frames.the new windows will reduce energy usage, maintenance and utility costs, with an annual projected savings of 1,488 million BTU and cost savings of $33,029 per year. The projected reduction in GHG emission is 319 tons per year. Estimated project cost: $693,045. Wood County Jail Boiler Replacement $173,097 was funded to replace the boiler system in the County Jail with condensing boilers to maximize fuel efficiency.

Wright, P.E., LEED AP BD+C, Mechanical Engineer Timothy J. Nelson, LEED AP, Electrical Design Engineer HURON COUNTY ENERGY IMPROVEMENTS PDG was the primary consultant for heating and cooling renovations for Huron County, Norwalk, Ohio to reduce the energy usage of four different county-owned buildings. The project included engineering design of HVAC improvements for the Huron County Recorder s Office Building, Treasurer s Office Building, historic Jail Building, and the historic Courthouse Building. The project included the replacement of several steam and hot water boilers with a central heating hot water boiler & piping system to the County buildings. The heating hot water is generated by three hot water condensing boilers that provide just over 3,600 MBH of heat output. A central air conditioning and ventilation system was designed for three of the buildings, with exception of the historic jail. Prior to the renovation the buildings are poorly ventilated and are cooled by several inefficient unitary air conditioners. The air conditioning and ventilation renovations included a roof top air handler and new ductwork distribution system routed throughout the multi-story buildings. Much consideration was taken into account for the historic preservation of the Courthouse. Electrical service upgrade design was required to serve the HVAC systems. A lighting fixture replacement with energy efficient lighting fixtures was included for each building, with exception of the historic jail. Huron County Commissioners Norwalk, Ohio 419.668.3092
