It is anticipated that this project will take between eighteen and twenty-four months to complete. In addition to SWT Design we will be hiring a construction manager to assist with the project. A steering committee will be established to help guide the project through the design phase. This committee will be made up of members of the Parks & Recreation Commission, a representative from CCF, a representative from BWG, and staff. Members of the Board of Aldermen are welcome to attend any and all meetings of the committee. A published schedule will be made available of all public meetings to be held concerning this project. All costs associated with this contract will be paid for by CCF. Recommendation is to approve the ordinance authorizing the execution of a contract with SWT Design, Inc. in the amount of Three Hundred Seventy-Seven Thousand Dollars ($377,000) plus reimbursable expenses up to Seven Thousand and Fifty Dollars ($7,050.00).
