SCOPE OF SERVICES Phase 1 – Community Engagement and Conceptual Design The City is considering a fall 2023 ballot measure in support of a West Side Recreation and Aquatics Center and Library Branch to meet the needs of a growing community. The consultant hired will build upon previous efforts, including but not limited to a 2012 City of Bozeman Recreation/Aquatics Facility Feasibility Study, and engagement efforts conducted as part of the current Bozeman Public Library renovation project. Community engagement on what kinds of activities and spaces are needed to serve a diverse and growing community will guide the development of a conceptual design. The consultant will be expected to be familiar with and adhere to the Engage Bozeman framework that guides the City’s community engagement efforts. The consultant will work with City staff to develop a community engagement plan to clarify the scope of the engagement process and how input will influence different aspects of the conceptual design of the new facility. The consultant will be expected to implement the community engagement plan using creative and accessible tools and techniques to gather input from the broader community as well as specific groups. Input gathered during the engagement process will guide the resulting conceptual design. Previous studies identified the need for approximately70,000 square feet of indoor aquatics and recreation center facilities in addition to roughly 33,000 square feet of outdoor aquatics facilities. Library services will require approximately 33,000 square feet, including but not limited to the following items: • Bookmobile Loading Dock / Garage • Large Community Meeting Room Space (>300p) • Small Community Meeting Room Space (4p-16p) • Hands-On Learning Labs • Dedicated Children’s Area • Study Rooms • Office Space for Staff • Café (associated with the Friends of the Library) • Drive-Thru Automatic Materials Handler Dropoff/Pickup Creative and efficient use of shared public spaces are critical to the success of this project, as the City strives to provide a campus style setting for a community and cultural center in a growing area of town to serve a diverse population (north of Main St. and west of 19th Ave.). Conceptual design should include a rough site analysis when a potential location is identified to include site improvements necessary to complete the project, including but not limited to pedestrian circulation, street improvements, parking, and groundwater mitigation efforts. Efforts should also be made to include high performance construction standards wherever possible as it relates to the City’s adopted Climate Plan, in addition to drought tolerant landscaping and other water conservation efforts. In addition to the concept design, the consultant will be tasked with the development of a marketing package to help communicate the proposed project to voters. Total project costs based on conceptual design will need to be estimated no later than April 2023 to be included in the required budget documents and bond materials. Upon completion of Phase 1, the City may, at its discretion and further subject to available funding, request additional professional services from the selected firm to complete final design and construction for the project (Phases 2 and 3). Phase 2 – Final Design Upon successful completion of conceptual design the City may work with the consultant to complete final design contingent upon voter approval. The consultant may work with the City to provide all services necessary to develop construction bid documents. Phase 3 – Consruction The successful consultant may work with the City to select a General Contractor/Construction Manager (GCCM) to ensure constructability and cost efficiency. The selected firm may work with the GCCM to provide all services necessary to bidding the project and coordinate in oversight of the construction activities of the project. All work must be in compliance with all applicable requirements under Montana and Federal laws and regulations. The City reserves the right to pursue subsequent selection processes for any future project(s) at their sole discretion should fundraising efforts be successful. This project will be under intense scrutiny by public officials, the media, and the citizens.
