Winn-Cutri Architects, the Center's designers, have prepared a proposal for those items which now is presented for consideration. If the Agency accepts staff's recommendation and extends the Winn-cutri Architects contract, an expenditure of $63,600 will be necessary. It is recommended that these funds be appropriated from the unappropriated balance of the Bayfront Bond account. A budget for the construction and furnishing of the Center includes combined funding from the Agency and Coastal Conservancy.

The recommendation is to amend the contract to include interior furnishings and fixtures and exhibit design in the amount of $63,600.
