Anderson Pool Design

The City of Wheat Ridge is seeking proposals from qualified multidisciplinary consultant teams to provide professional planning, public engagement, design, and construction documentation services for the replacement of the City’s existing outdoor community pool at Anderson Park (4355 Field St. Wheat Ridge, CO 80033). The new facility should provide a modern aquatic environment that serves residents of all ages and abilities, supports recreation and aquatic programming, and reflects community priorities identified through a comprehensive public engagement process. All pool-specific infrastructure, some of which is located within the building, is included within this scope. The City is also hoping to expand the staff offices and storage space as part of the design. The adjacent Anderson Building, which includes locker rooms, the front desk area, and the lifeguard office, was renovated in 2018-2019. After that renovation, there are still issues related to the water supply, sewer lines, electrical system, heating, and air conditioning. Add alternate estimate lines on bid submission should include analysis of those issues and designing recommended improvements. The site footprint for this planning and design project may be similar to the current pool footprint. Depending on other city decisions, priorities, and timelines, there may be an opportunity to expand the footprint for the replacement pool to either the east (into the current parks shops and storage area) and/or the south (into the current soccer field). Phase 2-Concept Development has more information on this topic. The selected consultant will lead the City through a structured planning and design process including concept development, community engagement, schematic design, design development, cost estimating, and preparation of final construction documents suitable for bidding and construction. Consultants responding to this RFP shall provide a detailed scope approach, work plan, schedule, staffing plan, and fee proposal for completing the services outlined below.
