Resolution - Business Development:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Contract 15878, with James Padgett Painting, Inc., for providing professional services for the installation of public art in the Broadway Tunnel, generally located between Avenue A and Avenue E on Broadway.
Item Summary
On June 9, 2020, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2020-RO187 to approve and adopt the Updated Downtown Master Plan, as recommended by the Central Business District Tax Increment Financing Reinvestment Zone (CBD TIF) Board of Directors. The plan included many recommendations for downtown redevelopment, including an emphasis on public art, and the importance of connecting the downtown area to the Canyon Lakes System to the east. The Broadway Tunnel, generally located between Avenue A and Avenue E, provides the first opportunity for one of these projects.
The CBD TIF Advisory Board, at their July 8, 2020 Regular Board Meeting, considered 4 design proposals for the tunnel. The design selected was submitted by Sydney Kim. In January of 2021, an RFP was issued for installation of the design. When no proposals were received, the RFP deadline was extended to February 25, 2021, but again no responses were received. At this time, the selection committee made a decision to seek a commercial painter to install the artwork.
Based on the committee's recommendation, contract negotiations were conducted with James Padgett Painting, Inc., and fair and reasonable rates were agreed upon for a total contract amount not to exceed $73,341. This contract is for 90 days, and the scope of work will include installation of the design.
Fiscal Impact
$4.5 million is appropriated in Capital Improvement Project 92399, Gateways, with $73,341 available for this purpose.
