Re: Eugene McCray Community Center Expansion
Dear Mr. Glass:
GSBS is very excited with your selection of our team to complete the programming, design and
administration of this Community Center expansion!
The following proposal is presented for your review and consideration for Professional Services as
described below.
Scope of Work (the Work):
The Work is as outlined in the Agreement for Architectural Services and the following: an expansion to
the Eugene McCray Community Center of approximately 1,600 SF. The size of the expansion may vary
depending of the cost of the work. The City has established a construction budget of $520,000. The
Architect shall participate in meetings with the Owners representative to establish the works program.
The Architect shall attend public meetings as required to make presentations with the Owners
representative.
Basic Services:
The design phases included for the Work include usual and customary: Schematic Design, Design
Development, Construction Documents, Bidding and Contract Administration as outlined in the draft
contract provided to the Architect titled `City of Fort Worth, Texas Agreement for Architectural
Services' dated 5.18.2015.
Compensation:
We propose to complete the work described above for a stipulated sum for Basic Services of $67,400.
This includes a $5,000 reimbursable allowance. The fee is distributed according to the following:
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE CONSULTANT NAME FEE % OF FEE
Architectural Design GSBS Architects $29,870 47.87

Additional services will be provided and billed hourly at the City's request only. Hourly fees for GSBS
Architects, as well as each consultant are attached.
As discussed with you and Mr. Meza, the work will be produced simultaneously with the Handley
Meadowbrook center but as (2) two distinct bidding packages. It is the City's intent to issue one
construction contract to the successful contractor for both projects making for a more seamless
process during the construction phase of work.
Not Included:
• Property and Topographical Surveys
• Geotechnical testing
• Platting- we assume the property is platted
Reimbursable Expenses:
Reimbursable expenses include but are not limited to the following expenditures billable at actual cost
plus ten percent (10%) for handling. These expenses are in addition to the stipulated sum for Basic
Services and may include but are not limited to the following:
• Reproduction and Printing Costs for"Client Review", "Permitting" or "Construction" documents.
• Renderings or Models for Public and City Meetings
• Postage, Courier or over-night delivery
• Travel, mileage only
• Texas Accessibility Review and Inspection, including filing fee.
Design Schedule:
As defined in draft project schedules provided to Architect.
Brian, thank you for this opportunity and we look forward to working with you, Alfonso and the
Community Center directors on this project.
Sincerely,

Re: Handley Meadowbrook Community Center Expansion
Dear Mr. Glass:
GSBS is very excited with your selection of our team to complete the programming, design and
administration of this community center expansion!
The following proposal is presented for your review and consideration for Professional Services as
described below.
Scope of Work(the Work):
The Work is as outlined in the Agreement for Architectural Services and the following: an expansion to
the Handley Meadowbrook Community Center of approximately 2,700 SF. The size of the expansion
may vary depending on the cost of the work. The City has established a construction budget of
$877,500. The Architect shall participate in meetings with the Owners representative to establish the
works program. The Architect shall attend public meetings as required to make presentations with the
Owners representative.
Basic Services:
The design phases included for the Work include usual and customary: Schematic Design, Design
Development, Construction Documents, Bidding and Contract Administration as outlined in the draft
contract provided to the Architect titled 'City of Fort Worth, Texas Agreement for Architectural
Services'dated 5.18.2015.
Compensation:
We propose to complete the work described above for a stipulated sum for Basic Services of $110,300.
This includes a $5,000 reimbursable allowance. The fee is distributed according to the following:

Additional services will be provided and billed hourly at the City's request only. Hourly fees for GSBS
Architects, as well as each consultant are attached.
As discussed with you and Mr. Meza, the work will be produced simultaneously with the Eugene McCray
center project but as (2) two distinct bidding packages. It is the City's intent to issue one construction
contract to the successful contractor for both projects making for a more seamless process during the
construction phase of work.
Not Included:
• Property and Topographical Surveys
• Geotechnical testing
• Platting- we assume the property is platted
Reimbursable Expenses:
Reimbursable expenses include but are not limited to the following expenditures billable at actual cost
plus ten percent (10%) for handling. These expenses are in addition to the stipulated sum for Basic
Services and may include but are not limited to the following:
• Reproduction and Printing Costs for"Client Review", "Permitting" or"Construction" documents.
• Renderings or Models for Public and City Meetings
• Postage, Courier or over-night delivery
• Travel, mileage only
• Texas Accessibility Review and Inspection, including filing fee.
Design Schedule:
As defined in draft project schedules provided to Architect.
Brian, thank you for this opportunity and we look forward to working with you, Alfonso and the
Community Center directors on this project.
Sincerely,

The Eugene McCray Recreation Center Expansion,Handley—Meadowbrook Recreation Center Expansion and
Handley Park Roads and Parking Lot Improvements projects are included in the 2014 Bond Program. Available
resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing until debt is issued. Once debt
associated with this project is sold,bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the
statement expressing official intent to reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond
election(Ordinance 21241-05-2014).
MIWBE OFFICE—GSBS Architects is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 30
percent SBE participation on this Project. The City's SBE goal on this Agreement is 19 percent.
It is anticipated that the Programming&Schematic Design process will begin November 2015 and conclude by
May 2016, with construction anticipated to begin in November 2016 and be completed in September 2017.
Operation and maintenance costs will be determined based on final design scope. These costs will be identified
in the award of construction M&C.
Staff recommends that the City Council agree to waive all development fees related to the project that would
otherwise be charged by the City,including the following: (i) all building permit,plan review,inspection and
re—inspection fees; (ii) all zoning fees; (iii) all temporary encroachment fees; (iv) all platting fees; (v)all fire,
sprinkler and alarm permit fees; and(vi)electrical and mechanical fees. All other fees charged or assessed by
the City,in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances,rules and regulations are not
waived and shall be fully payable.
Staff recommends these fee waivers as an appropriate tool that will serve the public purpose of installing
community facility improvements and site amenities located at two City—owned properties, as authorized by
Article 3, Section 52,The Texas Constitution. Because construction of the improvements will be overseen
through the permitting processes outlined in the City Code,Staff has adequate controls in place to ensure that
this public purpose is carried out.
Both project sites are located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 5.
