Council selects Coke Hazard Architects to design Liberty Park bandshell
Summary
After an 11-firm request-for-proposals process and five interviews, council selected Coke Hazard Architects (with KRA acoustics, Rise Structural Engineering and Stockwell) to develop design work for a new bandshell at Liberty Park and authorized staff to negotiate a contract.
Marshall City Council authorized staff to proceed with selecting Coke Hazard Architects to provide architectural and engineering services for a new bandshell at Liberty Park following a staff review of 11 proposals and interviews with five firms.
Sharon Hanson, the city administrator, said the firm selection reflects a staff committee review and interviews; Preston Sentsrud added that Coke Hazard showed experience with outdoor performance structures and proposed teaming partners including KRA (acoustics), Rise Structural Engineering and Stockwell for landscape and civil work. Staff said a draft contract had been prepared and negotiations would follow.
Council moved and seconded the staff recommendation and approved the selection to allow the city and firm to advance design work with an advisory committee and return to council with design options.
What happens next: staff will finalize a contract with Coke Hazard Architects, convene an advisory committee for public input, and bring design work back to council for review and potential approvals.
