Body
BACKGROUND: On August 27, 2019, the Norman City Council approved Contract K-1920-40 with Frankfurt-Short-Bruza Associates, P.C. (FSB) in the amount of $1,980,800 for Professional Design Services for the Norman Forward Indoor Aquatic Center, Multi-Sport Facility and the Senior Wellness Center.
Since contract approval, FSB has been working on preliminary and conceptual designs for the Indoor Aquatics, Multi-Sport and Senior Wellness Facilities. A number of meetings and presentations have occurred with the project Ad-Hoc Groups and the City Council, which have resulted in finalizing conceptual designs for these facilities. Most recently, the Senior Wellness Center Ad Hoc Group met on Feb 14, 2020 and voted to recommend that City Council relocate the project site to the Norman Regional Hospital Porter Campus and seek additional funding to construct the entire project in one phase. On January 22, 2020, the Indoor Aquatic and Multi-Sport Ad-Hoc Group voted to recommend that City Council seek additional funding to complete a larger scope of the project to include competition and warm-up pools, larger spectator areas, and eight basketball courts.
DISCUSSION: To accommodate the increased project scopes, FSB has proposed additional Schematic Design fees of $324,925 (see Contract Amendment No.1) to provide additional services for the Indoor Aquatic Center, Multi-Sport Facility and Senior Wellness Center Projects. The current design contract with FSB is in the amount of $1,980,800. If approved, the revised design contract amount will be $2,305,725.
