New Public Recreation & Aquatics Center: Architectural Planning & Design Services

The City of Napa (“City”) requests proposals (“Proposals”) from professional architectural firms/teams ("Consultant”) for a New Public Recreation & Aquatics Center: Architectural Planning & Design Services (“Project”) by or before Sunday, February 22, 2026 , at 11:59 pm , via electronic submission through the procurement portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/cityofnapa , in the manner set forth in the Request for Proposal Procedures.

The City has recently acquired the former Harvest Middle School property ("Project Location") from the Napa Valley Unified School District (NVUSD). The acquisition is part of a collaborative partnership aimed at enhancing local recreational opportunities and supporting community priorities. The Project Location is centrally located off the city’s main thoroughfare, State Route 29, as well as located amongst a densely populated and diverse demographic of the Napa community. The Project Location is to be developed into a new public recreation and aquatics center, providing the City with a unique and exciting opportunity to meet multiple recreational facility needs citywide, as well as provide public amenities within walking distance of many neighboring residents.

To achieve the City's goals and design intent, the Project is anticipated to span across three phases (see Scope of Services section) which will require a variety of technical specialties to support public outreach, design, pre-construction, bidding, construction, and post-construction tasks and deliverables. Additionally, services will include assistance to the City in conforming with current and future funding or policy obligations necessary to complete the work, such as bonds and grants requirements, or City programs.
