At the conclusion of the initial twenty-year term, e.g. on December 31, 2035, TFTP and the City shall have a bilateral option to renew thereafter with the same terms as set forth herein (unless otherwise noted herein) for an additional five-year period (2036-2040), after which TFTP and the City shall have a bilateral option to renew for an additional four-year period (2041-2045).  The Agreement(s) shall be approved by the City Solicitor as to form and substance.

 

Section 2.                     The City’s obligation to forward TFTP more than forty-four thousand dollars ($44,000.00) (The “Base Funding Amount”) of the annual allocated not-to-exceed amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) or whatever total is agreed to by the City for a particular year (the “Total Funding Amount”) in years 2016 through 2019 for capital improvements and maintenance to the Golf Course shall be contingent upon TFTP first meeting the following conditions:

 

A.                     TFTP must provide the City with an annual written report detailing annual fundraising efforts for the Project.

B.                     TFTP must show the City proof of its required 1:1 match for each annual Total Funding Amount.

C.                     TFTP must utilize a competitive selection process for design professionals similar to what the City uses and include the DPW's Architecture Division in the evaluation process.  TFTP may also use to its advantage the on-call professional architecture and landscape architecture contracts that have already undergone the RFP process.

D.                     TFTP must present each of the industry standard design phases for approval by the City’s Department of Public Works, Bureau of Transportation and Engineering, Architecture Division. The design phases will consist of: conceptual design, schematic design, design development and construction documents. The design phases should work in conjunction with and clarify how the clubhouse building improvements are aligned with future golf course plans, the new golf course philosophy and any environmental and habitat restoration projects associated with the golf course.  TFTP's design professional will be responsible for all licenses and permits for this project not limited to those required by the City of Pittsburgh's Permits, Licenses and Inspections (PLI). After approval by the City of the Construction Plan, TFTP should present final bid documents for approval by the City.

 

Upon final approve of the bid documents by the City, the total Remainder Amounts for the applicable years shall be transferred to the First Tee for use on the Project.  In the interim, the annual Remainder Amount over and above the Base Amount shall be held by the City in the annually appropriated account.
