The selected Architect(s) will be required to perform the architectural and engineering services to be specified more fully in a contract agreement to be negotiated after selection. The contract agreement will provide for payment for phases of work completed with options to proceed through all phases or to discontinue work as the circumstances may dictate. Upon selection of a firm, more defined Scope of Work will be developed. The City anticipates a contract which will include programming, schematic design, production of computer-generated renderings, and cost estimation; however, the City reserves the right to include additional project elements in the initial or subsequent professional services agreements as the City may (in its sole discretion) deem appropriate. The Architect will be required to retain and be responsible for all basic engineering disciplines such as mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, landscape architecture, civil engineering, and structural engineering as appropriate for the Scope of Work negotiated. The Architect is also required to identify and select the appropriate subconsultants; however, the City reserves the right to approve proposed subconsultants that will be associated with the Project.
