Council asks staff to seek multiple bids after single quote for police lobby safety design
Summary
Mayor James Hamberg said the Police Department seeks to expand or improve its lobby for safety; firm Emboss gave a design and cost-estimate quote, and the council directed staff to obtain additional contractor estimates rather than proceed with that single quote.
Mayor James Hamberg told the council the Police Department is looking to expand or improve its lobby to address safety concerns. "Emboss gave the City a quote to do the architectural design and cost estimation for the project," the minutes state, and the mayor said the department’s proposal centers on improved lobby safety and flow.
Council members declined to authorize work based on the single proposal and asked staff to solicit multiple cost estimates from several contractors before selecting a designer or moving forward. The discussion was presented as new business and resulted in direction to staff rather than an immediate contract award.
