Explanation
This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department to enter into contract with Schooley Caldwell Associates, Inc. for the design of the renovation of the historic Richards House located at Griggs Reservoir. Design services are to include a renovation of the original structure as well as an expansion to accommodate a meeting and event space. Additionally, the design is to include the restoration of the Griggs Amphitheater located just north of the Richards House and associated site work. Once complete, the project will make one of the oldest surviving houses in this area suitable for public use and provide a usable event space along Griggs Reservoir.
Because Schooley Caldwell Associates had been previously hired to complete a feasibility study for the renovation of the Richards House which included a conceptual design of improvements as well as programing opportunities for the facility, the Department is requesting that bidding be waived. This will allow for a quicker and more seamless transition into design development for construction.
