Thanks to a very organized open records response from the South Georgia Regional Library, we have available agendas and minutes of the SGRL Board and other materials related to the selection of an architect for the new library at Five Points. Here is a first batch of those materials, which sheds a little light on the library architect selection process.
According to the
SGRL Board minutes of 17 July 2012
as
approved at the SGRL Board meeting of 18 September 2012,
SOUTH GEORGIA REGIONAL LIBRARY
...
BOARD MINUTES
July 17, 2012V. Architectural (Building and Grounds Committee)
The Firm of Clemons, Rutherford and Associates (CRA) was approved as the architectural firm for construction of the Five Points Library.
Moved: Ray Devery Second: Wyn Miller Ayes: All Nays: None
No further detail is provided in those minutes.
A
Library Scoring Worksheet
for the design and construction of the "Lowndes County Library"
was included in the materials received in response to the open records request
(it's the extra item in the left edge of the picture in
the previous post).
It lists 30 topics with a potential score of 3 points each for
a total of 90 points,
grouped in categories of
"Responsiveness/Quality of Presentation/Capabilty",
"Experience, Design Concept and Creativity",
and
"Personal Overall Impression of the architectural team".
However, no marked-up worksheets with scores for any architecture firm
were included.
The complete agenda packets for the SGRL board meetings of 18 September 2012 and 17 July 2012 are available on the LAKE website where more will be added later.
Next: the RFP.
