Flores and Members of City Council CC: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor VIA: Brenda Armijo, City Clerk FROM: Steven Meier, Director of Planning and Community Development SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $14,600 BETWEEN THE CITY OF PUEBLO, A COLORADO MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, AND 2WR OF COLORADO, AND SETTING FORTH $2,400 FOR CONTINGENCIES AND ADDITIONAL WORK RELATING TO THE PHASE I, POPE BLOCK WEST REMODEL PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAME SUMMARY: This Resolution approves an Agreement for Professional Services relating to Phase I of the Pope Block West Building Remodel Project. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None. BACKGROUND: The City requested proposals (RFP No. 19-036) for consultants to provide a feasibility study including architectural services, designs and cost estimates for the Pope Block West Building. The Mayor is investigating the feasibility to relocate the departments of Planning and Public Works, and other City departments into the building. The current City offices located at 211 East D Street was built in 1971 and is over utilized and outdated. The Staff has estimated the cost to be approximately $250,000 to provide ADA restrooms, a secure customer service intake area and a larger conference room with no room for expansion. In 1998, the Pope Block West was remodeled. The first floor of the Pope Block Building West is approximately 11,000 square feet, vacant and underutilized and is owned by the City. It is an open office space with flexibility for remodel of office rooms and use of existing cubicles. The first floor has updated ADA restrooms and space for a secure customer service intake area and conference rooms. The entry on Court Street will require a new ADA accessible ramp. The Phase I analysis, awarded in this Resolution, will investigate the space and give a preliminary design, program and costs to remodel the first floor. If it is decided to proceed, the Phase II will finalize the design and prepare construction documents and cost estimate for bid of the remodel. The City staff is studying the parking and exterior items. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Funds for the completion of Phase I of the Professional Services Agreement in the amount of $14,600 shall be paid from the 2019 Planning and Community Development Department’s Professional Services account 101-11101-53001. An additional amount of $2,400 will be available from said account to pay for any City approved contingencies or additional work. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: None. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None. ALTERNATIVES: Denial of this Resolution will result in the delay of the Project. RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the Resolution. Attachments: ProposedResolution Agreement
