Michigan <br />Date: March 3, 2009 <br />For your consideration today is a proposal from Architecture Design Group (ADG) to extend its <br />design and construction coordination services through the completion of the American Trust facade <br />restoration project. The original basis of compensation, approved by the Commission on July 20, <br />2006, was 11 % of the cost of construction, not to exceed $70,000. The extension of the contract <br />commits additional hourly compensation not to exceed $7,000 to see us through the final two months <br />of the construction phase. <br />Our original terms contemplated only 12 months of engagement with ADG; however the National <br />Park Service review of plans that was required for the Rehabilitation Tax Credits lengthened the <br />pedevelopment phase considerably, and was atime-intensive portion of the project for ADG. To <br />their credit, the application was ultimately 100% successful, and once underway, ADG and Majority <br />Builders have kept this project moving as expediently as they could, with superior attention to <br />construction detail and under budget. You will be extremely proud of the end result, and of the <br />Commission's important role in this project. <br />I recommend approval of the contract extension with Architecture Design Group, and welcome any <br />questions you may have. <br />To Commission re ADG extension.doc What We Do Toddy Makes A D/ffer+ence! <br />
