7� <br />REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM <br />Agenda Date Requested: January 11, 1993 <br />Requested By: Charles Harrington, Department: Planning <br />Report Resolution XXXX Ordinance <br />Exhibits: 1. Ordinance 93-1830 <br />SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION <br />Background <br />As a part of the FY 1993 Capital Improvement Budget, City Council <br />authorized the expenditure of $ 100,000 for improvements to the <br />Municipal Jail Facility. These improvements are in response to a <br />study of the facility, including the entire building, which pointed <br />out several potential problems that needed to be addressed. This <br />was followed by a separate report from Chief Bobby Powell in 1992, <br />which emphasized the need to complete improvements to the jail as <br />soon as possible. <br />We are now to the stage that design work must be started in order <br />that the project may be finished in a timely manner. In order to <br />accomplish this task, the firm of Ray & Hollington Architects is <br />prepared to complete design plans for the project at the fee of <br />$ 8,000. This sum amounts to 8% of the cost of the project figure <br />of $ 100,000. <br />Recommendation <br />The staff recommends approval of an ordinance authorizing the City <br />Manager to enter into a contract with the firm of Ray & Hollington <br />Architects in the amount $ 8,000 for the design of improvements to <br />the jail facility. <br />Action Required by Council: <br />Approve an ordinance authorizing the City Manager to enter <br />into a contract with Ray & Hollington Architects to design <br />improvements to the Municipal Jail facility. <br />Availability of Funds: <br />General Fund <br />XX Capital Improvements <br />Other <br />Water/Wastewater <br />General Revenue <br />Sharing <br />Account No.: 015-700-430-900 Funds Available: xx Yes No <br />Approved for City Council Agenda <br />G?J3-2� T -1-q3 <br />Robert T.
