Centerton approves $2.525 million architect agreement for community building remodel
Summary
The council authorized an agreement with DMX Architects for architect services related to a proposed remodel of the former city hall/community building, with a flat fee cited in the meeting of $2,525,000; the item passed by resolution.
The Centerton City Council approved a resolution June 10 authorizing the mayor and city clerk to enter into an agreement with DMX Architects of Fayetteville for architect services pertaining to a remodel of the community building (the old city hall).
City staff described ongoing work on the building: new floors and paint in the community room, a roof replacement and additional interior plans to reconfigure the front of the building. The proposed scope discussed by staff included possible public amenities such as a coffee shop, small library shelving and a public seating area.
The resolution presented a flat fee for the architect services. During the meeting staff cited an amount of $2,525,000 as the agreement figure; the resolution authorizes the mayor and city clerk to execute the agreement and staff said the final design would be returned to the council for review before construction bidding.
Why it matters: The measure authorizes architectural services for a city capital project that will repurpose an existing municipal building for expanded public use. The dollar figure cited in the meeting represents professional fees and design work that must be incorporated in the city’s capital plan and later construction estimates.
Action: Resolution 2025‑25 was adopted by roll call. City staff said they will present proposed designs to the council before design documents are finalized and before the city solicits construction bids.
