BACKGROUND:
The Government Center grounds were constructed during the 1980's, and there have been no significant improvements made to them since that time.

Miller Legg & Associates, Inc. is a qualified firm on the City's approved Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Planning and Urban Design Services list procured through RFQ No. 10-06-21-11 and has provided a proposal to perform the necessary initial design services in the amount of $129,960.00. This scope does not include final design at this time because there are several variables to be resolved during the initial design.
This design effort will focus on improving and modernizing the courtyard to make it more functional for hosting events, as well as reconfiguring the parking lot to provide additional spaces to increase parking capacity. Furthermore, the consultant will recommend improvements to enhance the breezeway, improve the adjacent drainage, and prominently display the Police Department entrance for improved access and visibility. Finally, plans will be created to modernize all signage on the property to include the design of new entranceway monument signs. Additional tasks will be added to their scope as the design effort progresses and any significant contract amendment will be presented for approval. T...
