Summary of Specifications:
The City wishes to improve and expand the services and recreational opportunities at the Murray Ice Rink in a phased approach and in the most cost effective manner. As such, the City would like to implement the following actions under this proposal:
Phase I - Master Plan: The Consultant shall develop a Master Plan for the facility that must allow for a phased implementation of improvements that will enhance the customers/skaters experience and which can be undertaken and completed in a relatively short time-frame. The primary goals associated with this Master Planning process are to: (1) replace the existing trailers which house makeshift locker rooms with four new, permanent locker rooms with shower and rest room facilities; (2) create heated party/observation room(s); (3) create for-rent locker facilities to better enable leagues to utilize the space during seasonal activities; (4) replace the aging boiler system; (5) consider the viability of enclosing the rink facility, whether through a retrofit of the current structure, or wholesale replacement of the arched roof structure; (6) develop the concept for a future phase of redevelopment of the facility which would include a second sheet of ice, while continuing to accommodate the expanding parking needs of this facility; (7) explore options for off-season use (Parks currently operates adult floor and roller hockey leagues, June thru September); and (8) provide budgetary-level cost estimates for each project component addressed in the Master Plan.
Phase II – Construction Documents: Based on the results of the Master Plan, and in consultation with the City to determine which specific improvements that will be chosen from the Master Plan to be initially implemented, the Consultant shall prepare construction documents and detailed cost estimates for the purposes of constructing the identified improvements.
All Consultant work for Phase I and Phase II shall be designed and certified by a New York State Licensed Professional Engineer or Registered Architect, in accordance with New York State Law.
