Marina RFP drew a single proposal; committee will host follow-up meeting and re-solicit bids
Summary
Only one firm (Schneider and Associates) responded to the marina design RFP proposing a not-to-exceed budget of $31,600; committee directed staff to set a secondary meeting with the firm and attempt to solicit additional proposals.
Staff reported that the village received a single RFP response for the marina project from Schneider and Associates, which described prior lakefront and park projects and proposed a scope that includes stakeholder meetings and three concept designs. "We did open up the RFP. I only did receive one," the staff member said, and noted Schneider provided a proposed not-to-exceed budget of $31,600 for the design work.
Committee members expressed hesitation about moving forward with only one proposal. The committee voted to request a secondary meeting with Schneider for a presentation and Q&A and asked staff to reach back out to other firms and re-solicit proposals so the village has additional bids to compare before negotiating a contract. The staff also agreed to invite Madison Youth Sailing and other marina user groups to the follow-up meeting.
