Since we last discussed this issue with you, there have been several discussions with the architect of record regarding the site plan surrounding this facility and, in particular, the architect's concerns regarding ADA requirements. The difference of opinion between the architect and our Building Official and City Engineer was regarding the ADA requirements and the span of those requirements due to the placement of this facility on the City Hall campus. We were finally able to work out the amended agreement between the architect and the City that holds him harmless with regard to any ADA complaints regarding the design of the building. Both the City Engineer and Building Official and this writer are sure that this building meets all the requirements necessary for this site. Also attached is the projected schedule of completion for this facility. This writer respectfully requests that this addendum be approved so this project can be completed. Respectfully Submitted, ES:fdg - � Attachments AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SERVICES AGREEMENT THIS AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SERVICES ("this Amendment") is made and entered into this day of , 1997 by and between the City of Ocoee, Florida ("the Owner") and James Swickerath, A.
