opin;io;t:L (bat, s,nould not impact the new project in that the new
projecC-Ts simpler and more straightforward.
d.; Johnston "questioned if the distance of a firm would be an
impediment. S. Thompson responded that distance could be an
issue with any firm taking on the job/ and it was imperative
that whichever firm was awarded the Project they would need to
have someone on site - someone who was capable of making on site
decisions.
The Chair thanked S. Thompson for his input and then asked J.
Johnston for suggestions as to how to approach the review of the
Proposals.
J. Johnston said that all of the proposals pretty much put forth
the same kind of information/ experience/ etc. and that he felt
the Board should take each of their proposals/ discuss the
information presented and then rate each using numbers between 1
and 10 on a master sheet.
The Board proceeded to review the proposals.
Note: Attached to these Minutes is a copy of the Individual
Evaluation Score Sheet and a spreadsheet plotting the ratings.
The Board unanimously agreed to select the top two rated firms
to proceed to the interview process. The firms selected were
prochaska & Associates and ECI/Hyer Architects. A tentative
schedule for conducting the interviews on 7/ 8 or 9 June 2004
was agreed to. Once the interviews are completed the ARB will
make a recommendation to the KIB Assembly - the Assembly will
meet on the 10th of June 2004.

B. Cassidy suggested to the group that he would like to go back
to the person who had helped develop the evaluation sheet and
get additional direction on the kind of questions to be used in
the interview process. He noted that past ARB Minutes are also
a source for interview questions.
