The San Diego First Five
Commission has granted approximately $7,681,356 for the Center for
Children and Families. The contract between the Commission and the
Foundation has been signed.
The Center, which will be
sited at the current location of the Visual and Performing Arts Annex,
will be licensed for 152 children, from ages zero through five, at one
time.
The 20,000 square foot facility
will house programs that will address the health, education and
development of the children and their families.
The Planning Team has toured
five facilities in San Diego County in order to develop architectural
program requirements. This project will be a design-build project, with
RFQ’s released on 5/11/05 and Statement of Qualifications due 5/27/05.
The SOQ’s will be scored and the submitters will be shortlisted to 4 or 5
teams to receive the design-build Request for Proposal. The RFP will be
sent out by 7/1/05 with proposals due on August 15th. The
proposals will be scored and a design-build contract will be negotiated
with one team.
Board of Trustees
approval is anticipated on 9/21, and construction is scheduled to start on
March 1, 2006, and be complete by May 2007.
