1.By motion, approve and authorize the City Manager to
execute Amendment No. 3 to the Personal Services
Agreement with NUVIS Landscape Architecture and
Planning (NUVIS) for a contract augmentation in the
amount of $288,299, for design of the Northwest Open
Space Community Park Project.
*The proposed contract amendment with NUVIS ($288,299) would bring the total
NUVIS contract to $701,954. The remaining budget for the project ($2.9 million) is
sufficient to cover costs for design and construction and no additional funding
appropriation is needed.
