qualified applicants with a final selection to be made upon merit and qualifications. The
process will be conducted in a manner that will not encourage favoritism or bias nor
substantially diminish competition, by conducting the process in such a manner that only
qualified contractors will be eligible, and that the award of the contract will be based on
experience and expertise of the applicants.
3. The contract between the City and the General Contractor / Construction Manager will

planning. In addition, the City Commission determines the project presents significant
complexities related to the phasing of construction that necessitate the use of a General Contractor
/ Construction Manager.
