DISCUSSION:
The City of Fontana’s Capital Improvement Program Budget includes the Downtown West Parking Structure Project (“Project”). The Project is to construct a 5-tier parking structure to include the installation of five hundred one (501) parking stalls. The proposed Project is located within the City of Fontana and is bound by Arrow Boulevard to the south, by Nuevo Avenue to the west, by Spring Street to the north, and by an alley to the east. The intent of the structure is to serve the planned downtown area, also known as “The Forge District”, which will include an office building and hotel to be constructed adjacent to the Project by others at a later date.
On February 19, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) for Construction Management Services by notifying firms through the Purchasing Office.
