As far as heat, as long as birds are completely feathered and healthy, they shouldn't need heat, especially in your climate. I live where there are severe winters and as long as they're out of the wind and elements, they do just fine without a heat source.
In your area, heat would be more of a problem. Erecting your coop in the shade is a smart idea.
Your plans sound great ;)
