DXSCUSSXON The existing Jerome Center is located in the south/central portion of the City (See Exhibit 1). The building is over 30 years old and in need of major renovation. On December 1, 2003, the City Council adopted a resolution approving the application to seek State grant funds under the Murray-Hayden Urban Parks and Youth Services Program. The City's request was approved by the State in February 2005 and $2,500,000 was budgeted in Fiscal Year 2005/2006. Improvements include a new HVAC system, renovation of the gymnasium flooring, restroom and showers, exercise rooms, classrooms, and reproofing the building. In addition the playground area will be renovated with new equipment. Design of the renovation will require the services of a qualified architect. These services include planning of the facilities, preparation of construction documents, and support during the construction bidding phase. Staff has solicited proposals for these services. Qualified firms were contacted, however due to limited staff resources only one firm, Gillis & Associates Architects Inc, submitted a proposal. Their proposal is complete and responsive to the City's request. Gillis & Associates has positive prior experience with the City. Both the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Community Services Agencies are familiar with their expertise in the architectural field. 25H-1 Jerome Center Renovation July 3, 2006 Page 2 Based on these qualifications, staff recommends the firm of Gillis & Associates Architects Inc. be retained for the required services in the not-to-exceed amount of $160,000.
