Ross, City Managerj{~ Resolution No. 98-86 In your decision to award design services to Architects Alaska/Klauder & Co., the following issues should be considered' , The proposed facility design is based on financial restraints that will require full development over two or more phases. Financial constraints also dictate that the structure will be a steel building. , Approximately two months ago I advised Council that the Administration would enter into negotiations with Klauder & Company for a Phase I Design Proposal. Mr. La Shot has negotiated a fee structure that is consistent with past experience. The reasons for negotiated professional services in this case instead of going to RFP are' a. Klauder & Co., Wince-Corthell, and other members of the design team are already engaged in development of the Challenger Learning Center. This facility will be located on land to be transferred to the City by the Borough. The Recreational Ice Facility is proposed for co-location on this same site. Coordination in the planning of the. layout of these two facilities is important. Memorandum to City Council December 10, 1998 Page 2 of 2 be By using the same design team it is anticipated that there will be cost and time savings in planning and design of facility layout, soils testing work, development of parking facility design and design engineering of utility services. Ce Coordination of infrastructure design should result in construction savings. By going to construction bid at the same time, further savings should be realized both to the City and Challenger Learning Center of Alaska. In the future, should final facility development be completed as Phase II, the City would not be precluded from going to RFP for further design and engineering services. 3. The Kenai Peninsula Borough is proposing to acquire the site next to the Kenai Central High School from the Mental Health Trust and subsequently transfer the land to the City. The Administration is proposing that the site remain unsubdivided with both facilities located on it. Attached is a copy of the time line for acquisition of the site. The Mental Health Trust is providing to the City a letter authorizing the 'City to proceed in acquiring the Conditional Use Permit necessar~ to develop these facilities. The parcel is presently zoned Suburban Residential, as is the land that Kenai Central High School and Kenai Middle S'chool are located on. The proposed facilities can appropriately be allowed in this area by conditional use. Attachments RAR/kh Z z z C] u.I z~' Z 0 w,~ Z z 0 ILl
