The City of McCall is seeking to complete a Self-Evaluation and establish an ADA Transition Plan based on State and Federal requirements. The plan shall identify and address accessibility issues at City owned or leased buildings, City park and recreation facilities, municipal airport facilities, public sidewalks, and include evaluation of public access to city programs, services, and activities. In 2010, the City conducted an in-house accessibility evaluation of all existing curb ramps and driveways in the City Center and all City buildings. Since that time significant work has been done to re-build most of the down-town core. The City’s Parks need evaluation as well as all facilities and programs. The ADA's regulations and the ADA Standards for Accessible Design, originally published in 1991 and updated in 2010, set the minimum standard for what makes a facility accessible. In August 2021, the McCall City Council adopted the city budget which included the development of the ADA Transition Plan to proceed in 2022. The adoption of the Plan, including Self-Evaluation, public engagement and Plan adoption is expected to be completed in 2022-2023. Staff conducted a RFQ seeking a qualified firm to assist with preparation of an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. The City received 5 Statements of Qualifications. After scoring the statements by committee, it was determined that Vitruvian Planning was the most qualified applicant. Staff has worked with Vitruvian to develop a contract and scope of work. The contract has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney and the scope of work has been reviewed by many members of staff as this will be a multi-department effort. The contract, Vitruvian’s Statement of Qualifications, and the scoring matrix are all attached.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the Professional Services Agreement with Vitruvian Planning, LLC to Develop the City’s ADA Transition Plan and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
