Title: To authorize and direct the Director of Recreation and Parks to modify contract EL012052 with Schorr Architects, Inc. for professional services related to the Willis Athletic Complex Improvements Design; authorize the transfer of $44,620.00 within the Recreation and Parks Fund 702; to amend the 2012 Capital Improvement Budget; to authorize the expenditure of $44,620.00 from the Voted Recreation and Parks Bond Fund; and to declare an emergency.

Explanation
Background:
Consultant will provide additional architectural & engineering services to prepare plans and specifications for bidding the renovations to the Willis Athletic Complex. Due to the state of the current bidding climate and low bids that were received for the McDonald Athletic Complex, funding was available to renovate a 2nd complex. This project will also include the removal of the mercury contaminated gym floor. Based on the identical nature of these Athletic Complexes, it would be beneficial in time and cost to have Schorr Architects complete the plans for the renovations at the Willis Complex enabling Recreation & Parks to move quickly on the renovations for the second structure and take advantage of the current bidding climate saving tax payer dollars.
