B. Subsequently, on instructions from the County
Administrator, the Fire District and the General Services
Department began the process for design and construction
of two new fire stations in Walnut Creek, Fire Station
No. 7 at 1050 Walnut Avenue and Fire Station No. 3 in the
Rossmoor/Tice Valley area. They invited six
architectural firms to interviews with an architectural
selection committee. The firms were invited after
consideration of various factors, including ( 1)
expressions of interest submitted to the Fire District,
( 2) office location and ( 3 ) experience with fire station
projects. The interviews were held on October 13 , 1987 .
C. The selection committee included a Senior Planner from
the City of Walnut Creek, an Assistant Chief and an
Inspector from the Fire District, and the Supervising
Architect from the General Services Department.
D. On October 27, 1987, The Board authorized the Director of
General Services to negotiate an appropriate agreement
for architectural services with the candidate ranked
first by the selection committee. The negotiations have
been completed and an appropriate agreement is ready to
sign.
E. The Consultant is 450 owned by minorities, and 200 of the
professionals employed by the firm are minorities (one of
the professionals is minority and female) .
F. The full architectural services covered in this agreement
include schematic design, design development,
construction documents, bidding and construction support
services.
G. The County must proceed with an agreement for
architectural services because it does not have
sufficient staff to provide the services.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this recommendation is not approved, the County will risk
delay in a project which will be funded, in part, by the City
of Walnut Creek, and which will be designed to provide
adequate fire protection in areas of Walnut Creek.
