Analysis:
The Rodgers Senior Center redevelopment project will construct a new Park on the former Senior Center Property near the intersection of 17th Street and Orange Avenue in the downtown area. As part of the new park development, the existing outreach building at this property will remain and the building interior and the exterior roof will be renovated and repaired. The recreation building will be demolished and the space will be converted primarily to an open space with a 13 space parking lot as part of the park development. In addition this project will provide improved ADA access, walkways along the park and open space turf.
The project was presented to the City Council on July 20, 2020. At that time the City Council approved the conceptual design of the project, and directed staff to complete the design and bid out the project for construction.
Bids were received on November 17, 2021, with the following results:
