Summary

The committee approved awarding professional design services for an outdoor play-and-learn area (Roswell Public Library project) to Studio 27 for $38,843.93 inclusive of New Mexico gross receipts tax; the award was forwarded to finance and will appear on next approval agenda.

The committee voted to award professional design services for an outdoor play-and-learn area associated with the Roswell Public Library to Studio 27 for $38,843.93 (amount reported inclusive of New Mexico gross receipts tax).

Why it matters: the award funds design work so the project can move into phased construction bids; staff said the design contract will be paid from donation/gift/grant funds and requires no general-fund budget adjustment.

Details: staff described the procurement as RFQ 25-002 for professional services; two proposals were received and staff recommended the lower-priced, responsive respondent. A nonmandatory pre-bid occurred in early February; proposals were due February 21. Committee members moved to send the award to the finance committee and to place final contract approval on the next consent agenda. The motion carried by voice vote with no opposition recorded in committee.

Next steps: staff will forward the award to the Finance Committee for budgetary oversight and to place the contract on the next council consent agenda for final authorization. Construction will be phased based on the design deliverables, and staff said the intent is to bid work in defined phases once design is complete.
