Staubach Company for project management services associated with the development of a facilities
master plan On February 28 2006 a Request for Qualifications was issued to solicit firms to perform

Administration Building On April 20 2006 the three proposing firms were interviewed by a consultant
selection committee comprised of City staff and members of the Facilities Master Plan Citizen Advisory
Committee The consultant selection committee identified Carter & Burgess Inc as the top ranked firm
The detailed assessment of the Fire and Police Training Facility is necessitated by the planned
encroachment into the training complex of infrastructure associated with the Trinity Uptown portion of
Trinity River Vision project. The detailed assessment of the Police Administration Building is considered
necessary to provide City leadership with the information to make decisions related to the continued
ownership/use or disposition of the building
