Summary: On September 22, 2009 the Board of Education approved budgets for a two(2) year Facilities Improvement Plan which included portable replacements at two(2) middle schools. In light of the fact that the District desires to enjoy full and exclusive re-use rights to a highly efficient and energy conserving classroom design for immediate and future use, the District requires architectural/engineering services to provide DSA approved designs and specifications for multiple iterations/configurations of such highly efficient occupancies. Once approved, these designs would be deemed 'Pre-checked' by DSA and future approvals for site adaptation would then be significantly expedited. A budget of $3,818,410 has been approved for the current portable replacement project which included the cost of a 'Pre-Checked' design which could be site adapted for installation at multiple sites.

Staff has negotiated a 'not to exceed', fully inclusive contract for the provision of comprehensive design services with PHd Architects for said services for a fixed fee of $15,500.00.
Funding: Proposition 55 Funds
Fiscal Impact $15,500.00
Recommendation: Approve design services contract as presented.
