Discussion and possible action to enter into an architectural services contract (AIA B104-2017- Standard Abbreviated Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect) with X Architecture Collective, LLC for the design (construction plans and specifications) for the renovation to the two-story building known as the Webb County Youth Village Rehabilitation Center for the Community Action Agency’s Meals on Wheels and Community Social Services Programs for a total cost of One Hundred Twenty-Nine Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Three Dollars Thirty-Three Cents ($129,693.33) with Webb County separately contracting with a Civil Engineer to address installation of propane gas lines to the building for gas ovens  as well addressing additional accessible parking spots and accessible path to the building and any matters incident thereto; authorizing the County Judge to sign all relevant documents. [Account #2703-5205-001-432001-214 (ARPA Funds)]
 
Issue: Currently, the building used for the Meals on Wheels and Social Services Programs does not allow for expansion of its services to better meet the demands for these services. Webb County is seeking to relocate the Community Action Agency’s Meal on Wheels and Social Services Programs to the Webb County Youth Village Rehabilitation Center; however, said facility will have to undergo renovation work to house both Programs.
 
Solution: At its December 11, 2023 meeting, the Webb County Commissioners Court awarded Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 2024-001 “ARPA Project Architectural Services for the Community Action Agency’s Meals on Wheels & Nutrition Program” to X Architecture Collective LLC to undertake the renovation work to the Webb County Youth Village Rehabilitation Center.
 
Result: Housing the Meals on Wheels and Social Services Programs will allow these Programs to meet the rise in the demand for their services.

Currently the building used for the Meals on Wheels and Social Service Programs do not allow for expansion of services in order to meet the rise in demand for their services.
