ISSUE
The 292 Design Group and staff have been working on the Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study for
Indoor Recreation Facilities for the past few months. There has also been work done on a potional layout
for a future facility. Staff would like to provide an update to the Parks and Recreation Commission about
the work that has been completed as of our meeting.
BACKGROUND
In 2018, the City Council discussed a Request for Proposal (RFP) that was going to be sent out asking
architectural firms to conduct a Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study for Indoor Recreation Facilities.
The RFP was sent out to twelve firms with some being local and others from outstate. The City received a
total of six proposals. Staff reviewed and scored the proposals and selected three firms to interview. The
firms that were interviewed included: JLG, 292 Design Group and Leo A Daly. All three firms did well
with the interview. Staff then sent the proposals of the three groups to the City Council for review and
feedback.
After staff had reviewed the proposals, interviewed three firms and considered the feedback received from
the City Council, staff is recommending that the City contract with 292 Design Group to conduct the
Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study for Indoor Recreation Facilities. A major component of this
project is a thorough public engagement process with stakeholders and the general public.
