ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
A. Agreement with Ardurra Group, Inc. (page A-1 forthcoming)
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
At the April 16, 2019, City Council meeting, Staff presented three conceptual options for
redesign of the parking lot at Fred Hesse, Jr. Community Park. The council unanimously
selected the third conceptual option.
To prepare the final design drawings and specifications, Staff obtained a proposal from
Ardurra Group, Inc., formerly AndersonPenna Partners, Inc. (Ardurra). This proposal is
based on the third design concept presented to City Council on April 16 and discussions
with City Staff, including a visit to the site.
Staff is confident that the proposal from Ardurra not only allows the design work to be
completed at a cost much closer to original Staff estimates, but will result in a construction
project that meets the expectations of the City Council while being in line with original
budget estimates for construction.

Therefore, Staff recommends the council award the professional services agreement to
Ardurra and authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement.
ALTERNATIVES:
In addition to the Staff’s recommendations, the following alternative is available for the
City Council’s consideration:
1. Reject Ardurra Group, Inc.’s proposal and direct Public Works to issue a Request
for Proposals for design services.
