Parker, City Manager , SUBJECT: Engineering Services For Proposed Ice Rink PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to consider the award of a contract for engineering services relating to the proposed ice rink west of the City Hall building on the Civic Center Plaza. BACKGROUND The installation of an ice rink was proposed in the 2000 budget for the plaza area to the west of City Hall. The proposed rink would be 60 ' X 160 ' , with refrigeration for the rink being provided by the existing chiller that is used for air conditioning of City Hall. The rink coils and spectator boards would be set up in the fall and removed in the spring and stored during the off season. This type of setup would allow the rink equipment to be moved to another site if the need arises, however, relocating the rink would require additional chiller units which are not included with this project . Requests for proposals were sent out to five mechanical engineering firms for engineering services relating to the design and construction of the ice rink. Two 'firms, Consolidated Consulting Engineers and GKC/EME, returned proposals for the requested services . After review of the proposals by staff, Consolidated Consulting Engineers was selected as the best firm for the project . Consolidated will also be using Innovative Concepts Enterprises (ICE) as a sub-consultant for the project . ICE is a leader in the portable ice rink industry with rinks like Skate on State for the City of Chicago and several other municipal and private rinks throughout the country. Consolidated Consulting Engineers has completed work for the City of Elgin in the past, including the design of the chillers at City Hall which will be used for the ice rink project . rill'.
