AGENDA TITLE: Adopt resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a professional consulting
services contract with ELS Architecture and Urban Design of Berkeley, CA for
accessibility review and design services for the City of Lodi's Grape Bowl Stadium
and appropriate $25,000.00 for the project.
MEETING DATE: April 17, 2002
PREPARED BY: Parks and Recreation Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council authorizes the City Manager to execute a
professional consulting contract with ELS Architecture and Urban
Design of Berkeley, California for accessibility review and design
services for the Grape Bowl Stadium and that the City Council forgive
the requirement for bids because of the urgent need to expend or
contractually obligate CDBG funds before May 1, 2002.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On March 7, 2001, the City Council approved Resolution Number
2001-58A (The Projected use of Funds for the 2001-2002
Community Development Block Grant Program). The Parks and
Recreation staff requested to fund an outside consultant to review
and make recommendation on ADA accessibility issues at the Grape Bowl Stadium. The evaluation will
include the facility main entrance, parking, handicap seating, restroom facilities, concession stands,
drinking fountains and grade issues from street elevation to the rim of the stadium. The Parks and
Recreation Department currently has under contract ELS Architecture and Urban Design to design the
Indoor Sports Center and the Aquatics Complex. The Parks and Recreation Department feels there are
pertinent benefits of having a consultant under contract now who is capable of doing the study.
ELS will provide the City of Lodi with the following Work Plan:
1. Review documents provided by the City of Lodi. Prepare background plans.
2. Conduct a one day site walkthrough, accompanied by City Staff.
3. Prepare draft report and diagrammatic plans for improvements.
4. Review report and plans with City Staff.
5. Finalize report and prepare draft budget recommendations
6. Discuss report, estimate and final draft conceptual plans.
7. Make revisions necessary and submit final report.
The above work plan outlined by ELS Architecture and Urban Design will not exceed the contract price
of $25,000.00.
