DESCRIPTION At the April 28, 1986 meeting of the
Dublin City Council, the Council approved the preliminary design
for Kolb Park. Although, the City has not yet purchased the Kolb
Park Site from the Murray School District, Staff would like to
receive authorization from the City Council to at least proceed
with the selection process for the park designer. This would
enable the City to be in a position to fast track the design of
the Park once the purchase of the parkland is consummated. Staff
does not recommend that the City authorize the designer to begin
work or incur any costs until the park is owned by the City.
Staff has prepared a Request for Proposals (Exhibit A) seeking a
Landscape Architect to finalize the design and prepare
construction plans and bid documents .
It is staff ' s recommendation that the Council take the following
action:
1 ) Approve Request For Proposals for Kolb Park Design
2 ) Authorize staff to advertise for consultants
