Construction <br /> and post-construction services will be proposed after bidding when the contractor is known. <br /> Design and Bidding Services <br /> Design Phase <br /> a) Coordinate and attend a kick-off meeting with City staff. <br /> b) Review the inspection report and recommendations. <br /> c) Prepare specifications and bidding documents for construction.
