This is part of what was discussed at the workshop meeting yesterday. It's no news that the Commission is charging down the road of rebuilding the existing Casino building at the beach. Hiring an architectural firm - as indicated in this draft RFQ - would be the first step. I wonder how many we are going to get to bite at this Request for Qualifications and Letter of Interest request. A total project cost of "several million dollars" is predicted and the associated design fees are estimated at 10 percent of that number.
Particularly telling is the language included in the transmittal letter to the Commission, which is also repeated in the RFQ.
Somehow, they want the "new" building to reflect all the various styles of the building that preceded the current one - including the design that is currently there.
The Commission could not act on this yesterday due to the workshop format. It should be appearing on a future regular meeting agenda.
