Item No. 10 202
Date: 5/24/2010
Item/Subject: ORDER, Awarding Contract for Architectural/Engineering Services — Schematic
Design - Arena
Responsible Department: Finance
Commentary:
In February 2010, the Council accepted the recommendations of the Special Committee on
Arena Implementation. One of the recommendations was that the City hire Sink, Combs and
Dethlefs for architectural/engineering services associated with any potential arena project. This
recommendation was based on Don Dethlefs' demonstrated vision, creativity, cost conscious
approach, and experience in designing similar facilities. The conceptual drawings located a new
arena adjacent to the Auditorium, made use of existing topography and allowed for reuse of
existing facilities as ways to contain costs. In addition, he presented an outline of a master plan
for the entire complex that identifies potential additional projects that would improve and
integrate various elements of the property. As a result, staff was directed to obtain a proposal
from Sink, Combs and Dethlefs for architectural and engineering services to assist in defining the
overall potential scope of a potential Phase I project at the schematic design level.
The initial fee proposal was percentage based. The Finance Committee indicated its preference
to obtain a fixed fee proposal for the envisioned work through schematic design. Staff
anticipates having a fixed fee proposal to present to the Council prior to the adoption of this
Order on 5/24/2010.
