The Eaton Area Park and Recreation District (EAPRD, the "Owner") is in the process of expanding the Community Center through an Auxiliary Gym Expansion project. The Owner is seeking proposals from qualified firms to provide General Contractor (GC) services for the development of schematic design plans associated with this expansion. The project includes the planning and integration of a new auxiliary gymnasium, as well as additional offices and storage, based on a conceptual layout developed by District staff. A parking lot expansion may be considered as an add alternate. This effort represents an important phase in the District’s continued commitment to meeting the growing recreational and operational needs of the community.

It is the Owner’s intent to proceed under a Design-Build agreement but is currently soliciting General Contractor and Architect services separately. Upon final selection of the General Contractor, the GC will play a key role in selecting the Architect. The General Contractor will then contract directly with the selected design team to form the Design-Build team under a single Design-Build agreement.

The project team will collaborate with the Owner and the Owner’s Representative to define design parameters and determine the most effective and efficient path to completing the project. It is the intent of the Owner to finalize a single Design-Build contract once the full project team has been established through a qualifications- and fee-based selection process.
