allow the City to gain ownership of previously prepared and completed

construction plans and specifications for a two bay fire station.



Per Resolution 131-01, JRA Architects was one of the contracted firms to

provide architectural services, on an as needed basis; and was the firm

selected to design new fire stations to be constructed throughout Columbus.

Plans were developed for all fire stations. However, the last remaining fire

station was not constructed due to a shortage of funds. Funding is now

available and the design and construction of the remaining fire station can

proceed.



Although the City has previously paid JRA, Architects for the development of

said plans and specifications, the architect still maintains ownership. If the

City wishes to continue said services with the architect, payment would have to

be rendered for any and all additional services necessary for the actual

construction of the project. However, the offices of JRA Architects, Inc. are

no longer located in Columbus and further participation with the firm for

constructing a fire station will only increase expenses. With the expectation

of reducing overall architectural costs, the city desires to gain ownership of

said plans and specifications and secure any needed architectural services, at

a later date, from one of the local architects currently under annual contract.
