Rationale:
Via Resolution 17.5 at their stated meeting on January 20, 2016 the Board of Trustees awarded a requirements contract to KG&D Architects, P.C. (KG&D) and four other shortlisted firms for an amount not to exceed $1 million per firm. This was amended by Resolution 22.21 at their stated meeting on June 20, 2017 to raise the fee limit by $500,000 and extend the term by an addition 2 years. This was amended again via Resolution 18.8 at the stated meeting of February 27, 2019 increasing the contract by $1.0 million, from $1.5 million to $2.5 million and extending the contract for an additional 12 months.

This resolution is to assign the task of providing professional architectural/engineering designs and documents required for SED permitting, bidding and construction administration services. Group “A” includes School 14, School 23, School 28, Yonkers Montessori Academy and Riverside High School. Total project cost is anticipated to be roughly $6.9 million.

Work will include but not be limited to restoration of façade masonry & flashing, roofing and requisite asbestos abatement. By bundling multiple schools of the same scope of work into one project it is expected YPS will reduce costs from efficiencies gained in the design, bid and build phases versus stand-alone projects.

KG&D is one of five firms under a standing requirements contract with the District that were awarded as a result of the issuance of RFQ313 in 2017. Of the five, they are the best suited to effectively meet the NYSED Facilities Planning Group requirements for the design, permitting, bidding and construction administration of the project.

School 14 for $28,500
School 23 for $88,500
School 28 for $120,000
YMA for $120,000
