Staff told council the Midtown Phase 1 construction GMP is about $29.5 million with roughly 420 days to substantial completion; design and post-design services for later phases remain under negotiation and the GMP is expected to come before council for formal approval.
City staff presented a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for Midtown Phase 1 infrastructure work, describing the contract as covering streetscape, utility replacement, drainage, sidewalks, roadway reconstruction, street furniture and wayfinding.
Staff said the GMP came in at about $29.5 million and estimated 420 days to substantial completion with about 450 days to final completion. The phase-one limits described include Hoople Street to Victoria on the south, Fowler Street on the east and MLK on the north, excluding Bridal on the west. The contract will include post-design services and coordination with other design efforts for future phases; staff said the GMP is expected to come to the regular council meeting for approval.
Councilmembers asked about architectural integration with other consultants and how to coordinate streetscape design; staff said coordination efforts are underway and that phase-two design work is progressing with a separate estimated design contract of roughly $3.6 million.
