APPROV S FORM AND LEGALITY As 'stant ity Attorney ADOPTED AND EFFECTIVE. _~~~ City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication .~ COUNCIL ACTION Approved on 6/15/2004 Ordinance No 16007 DATE Tuesday June 15 2004 LOG NAME 20STANLEY REFERENCE NO *C-20114 SUBJECT Appropriation Ordinance and Acceptance of Grant from Fort Worth Local Development Corporation and Authorization of Consultant Agreement for the Evans and Rosedale Business and Cultural District Redevelopment Project RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council: 1 Authorize the City Manager to execute a grant agreement accepting the amount of $300 000 from the Fort Worth Development Corporation (LDC) for the completion of a market analysis and master site plan for the Evans and Rosedale project area and 2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Fund by $300 000 from available funds and 3 Authorize a consultant agreement with Stanley Love-Stanley P C (SLS) for market analysis, master site planning and initial programming services related to the Evans and Rosedale Business and Cultural District in the amount of $290 000 DISCUSSION On January 29 2004 a Request for Qualifications was issued soliciting consultant firms to develop a master site plan for the 15-acre Evans and Rosedale Business and Cultural District and architectural design services for the construction of a new $7 000.;000/43 000-square-foot Public Health Center/Branch library complex on the site The new Public Health Center building will be a replacement for the existing building on University Drive and Harley Avenue The branch library will be a replacement for the existing Shamblee Library at 959 E. Rosedale Street, which is co-located with the Southside Community Center The new complex will include an adaptive re-use of the 4 000 square foot historic Tommy Tucker Building The consultant selection team included both City Staff and community leaders. The selection process culminated on March 31 2004 with the identification of the SLS team as the top-ranked candidate Subsequently it was decided to ask the SLS team to include market analysis services in their scope of work. The original plan was to obtain a market analysis via a separate consultant agreement and on February 10 2004 the LDC authorized a grant of $67 5'00 for those services. Due to the close relationship between the market analysis and the master site plan it was later determined that it would be advantageous to fold these services into the master plan/architectural design consultant agreement. Fee negotiations for the full scope of work (including the market analysis) resulted in an overall not to exceed fee agreement of $1 004 500 broken down as follows. Phase I (market analysis master site plan and preliminary programming) $300 000 Phase II (final programming and full architectural design) $704 500 Logname 20STANLEY Page 1 of 2 The fee breakdown above includes $12,250 in phase I and $9 450 in phase II for a separate agreement with an architectural/planning consultant that was employed with SLS at the time they were selected for the project but subsequently took a position with another firm The fees for that agreement were negotiated in conjunction with the overall project but it is necessary to execute astand-alone agreement with that firm (StudioRotan) due to the terms of the employment agreement of the consultant involved Since the total fee amount for that agreement is less than $25 000 no M&C is required prior to executing that agreement. Phase I of the agreement with SLS will include the market analysis master site plan and the initial programming work that is part of the architectural design process On June 15 2004 the LDC authorized an allocation not to exceed $232 500 (to supplement the $67 500 previously approved) for market analysis and master site planning services Staff anticipates returning to City Council to obtain approval of an amendment to this agreement for the remainder of the architectural design services. The funds for that phase will come from the Section 108 funds designated for this .project. The Section 108 Loan Agreement with HUD is being amended and approval is pending with HUD in Washington Phase II of the agreement will be conditioned upon final approval of the Section 108 Amendment, which is anticipated to occur by the end of July 2004 This project is located in Council District 8 FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION The Finance Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations receipt of the grant, and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated of the Grants Fund TO FundlAccountlCenters FROM Fund/AccountlCenters (2) GR76 472106 020440947000 $300.000.00 R106 538070 013106003000 $300.000.00 (2) GR76 NARIOUS) 020440947010 $300.000.00 Submitted for City Manager's Office b~ Joe Paniagua (6191) Originating Department Head Robert Goode (7804) Additional Information Contact: Greg Simmons (7862) Logname• 20STANLEY Page 2 of 2
