Renovation of a mixed-use development in Marianna, Florida. Design plans call for the renovation of a educational facility; and library.

As of June 2, 2023, an architect has been selected for the project. Bidding and construction is estimated to take place in Fall of 2023. *The closed solicitation has been included below for reference: Chipola College is requesting proposals for architectural services needed for construction, renovation, and remoldeling associated with connecting several buildings to the Colleges centralized chiller plant. At a minimum, architectural services needed will include development of design documents and the coordination of other professional design services (e.g. mechanical, electrical, etc.) as necessary. The College desires to select an architectural firm for professional services in accordance with Section 287.055 (2)(g), Florida Statutes. Upon execution of a contract with the College, the selected Architect will be eligible to provide professional architectural consulting services. Tasks may include but are not limited to architectural design services, including development of design documents. In addition, the selected architect will be expected to oversee and coordinate with other design professionals (g.e. mechanical, electrical, etc.) for the construction, renovation, and remodeling associated with connecting several College buildings to the Colleges centralized chiller plant. Based on the nature of the project, it is anticipated that a significant amount of design work will have to be performed by mechanical and electrical engineers working under the direction of the architectural firm chosen. It is further expected that some of the buildings will require extensive changes to accommodate new cooling and heating systems. The College reserves the right to accept or reject proposals in whole or in part, and to award proposals in the manner the College determines to be in its best interest. The method of contractor selection has not been determined at this time.
