Due to the additional needs of professional services for bidding and construction support, staff is recommending that the City Council approve Amendment No. 1 to Secoy Architect, Inc. in the amount of $25,500.

Issue addenda as required. 3. Assist in scoping bids and contractor selection. 4. Respond to reasonable questions and problems concerning construction documents during the project's construction.
