Both designs contain the same fixture counts and other <br /> amenities, and can reasonably be constructed within the City's established <br /> construction budget for the project. The Council is asked to review both <br /> proposed designs and recommend one for further design development. <br />Honorable Mayor and Members ofthe City Council: <br />BACKGROUND <br />At its meeting of April 19, 2005, the Council considered a variety of locations for a new public <br />restroom building in the Downtown area. After receiving public testimony and reviewing <br />conceptual design options, the Council selected the southwest comer of Delucchi Park (near W. <br />Angela Street) as its preferred location. On May 17,2005, the Council considered the matter of <br />a "custom design versus manufactured structure," and unanimously decided to pursue a custom <br />restroom design. Staff negotiated a Scope of Services with the firm of ELS Architects of <br />Berkeley to perform this work, and on June 21, 2005, the Council approved the resulting <br />Consultant Agreement. <br />SR 05:256 <br />Page I <br />
