BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi Community Development Department (CDD) is tasked with directing the growth and development of the City through policies adopted in the General Plan. Moreover, the Neighborhood Services Division under CDD administers federal and state grant resources in support of programs and services for unsheltered, low -to -moderate income citizens and neighborhoods to meet the needs of the community. To meet these initiatives effectively and the various projects underway, there is a need for Architectural Design Services. Currently CDD is utilizing NJ Associates, Inc. (NJA) for related services. NJA has been utilized on several projects involving homelessness and affordability. These initiatives are not only high priority at the local and county levels, but also at the State and Federal levels. It is imperative that these projects move forward timely and NJA Architecture understands the time sensitive nature and is able to provide a work product that meets our needs within the timelines provided. On October 6, 2021, City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into a purchase agreement in a form acceptable to the City attorney to complete the purchase 710 North Sacramento to develop the Lodi Access Center. On October 27, 2021, the purchase of 710 North Sacramento Street closed escrow and the grant deed transferred and recorded to the City of Lodi. Since NJA has been involved in the Lodi Access Center from its inception, staff believes their familiarity will enhance the completion of the project's first phase, programming and space planning. Additionally, the City will have the opportunity to apply for County, Federal, and State grant resources for Affordable Housing and other projects for those experiencing homelessness. As stated above for the same reason staff would like to continue to retain services with NJA to develop conceptual plans for future affordable housing projects. Due to timing of application deadlines for grant resources and request for proposals, staff can utilize conceptual design services for future projects with shorter turnaround times. The Community Development Department has completed its due diligence and received three quotes of comparable services including one from NJA Architecture. Based on the quotes received, NJA Architecture is competitive in its pricing and meets the procurement guidelines of fiscal responsibility.
