ENCLOSURES: `
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the
attached Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to enter into a
professional services agreement, in substantially the attached
form, with Brandell Studios, Inc., to design and fabricate
sculpted metal gateway features, as part of the previously
approved Northwest 2nd Avenue Beautification Project in the
Wynwood Community, Miami, Florida, further authorizing
compensation from previously allocated 17th year Community
Development Block Grant Funds, for services not to exceed an
amount of $10,000.00.
The Department of Development recommends that the City Commission
approve the authorization of the City Manager to enter into this
professional services agreement in order to expedite the
implementation of this project. These sculpted metal gateway
features have been approved in form and design by the local
community groups and the City Administration and are part of an
overall Street Beautification Program for Northwest 2nd Avenue.
The Department of Development interviewed a number of Metal
Sculpters and selected two gentlemen from the Bakehouse Arts
Complex in Wynwood with the appropriate skills and talents.
Funding for this entire project comes from previously allocated
17th year CDBG monies. These sculpters will also be required to
supervise the installation of the Gateways in order to insure
artistic integrity.
