DATE: - MAY 24, 1991 <br />TO: HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />THRU: JAMES E. CHANDLER - <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTOR% <br />DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: INTERIOR DESIGN CONTRACT <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY COURTHOUSE PROJECT <br />BACKGROUND: <br />On Wednesday, May 22, 1991, staff along with Gary Glenewinkel of <br />Centex Rooney, and Commissioner Wheeler met with Mrs. Beverly Lloyd <br />Lee of the American Society of Interior Designers. The purpose of <br />this meeting was to discuss the possibility of Mrs. Lee doing the <br />interior design for the subject project at no cost to the county <br />other than actual expenses incurred by her. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />The concept of these volunteer services is a good idea and would <br />allow community input to a project as well as cost savings to the <br />county. Mrs. Lee was very knowledgeable of the interior design <br />discipline as it relates to buildings other than public assembly <br />..type. Since most all of her work had been done in the state of <br />Colorado, she was not very familiar with the Southern Building Code <br />and had no experience in courthouse interior design. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />Based on the meeting and concerns staff has about accountability, <br />cost control, scheduling, insurance and the number of volunteer <br />personnel available to work on this size and type project, it is <br />recommended that the architectural firm of Pierce, Goodwin, Alexander <br />and Linville be awarded the contract for 'interior design services as <br />originally proposed at a price of $50,000.00. <br />The above recommendation in no way is intended to reflect on Mrs. <br />Lee, the ASID, or the volunteer concept in a negative aspect. A <br />project that is not so complicated and sensitive to scheduling would <br />be ideal to try this concept on. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously awarded <br />the contract for interior design services on the <br />Indian River County Courthouse project to the firm <br />of Pierce, Goodwin, Alexander and Linville at a price <br />of $50,000.00. <br />ADDENDUM NUMBER ONE TO CONTRACT FOR ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES IS <br />ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />7 <br />JON RonK <br />L _ <br />
