Question: Is design of new parking facilities, restoration of existing parking facilities or any other scope related to parking included in this advertisement?

Question 2

Question: Please clarify the statement regarding renovation of civic buildings (e.g., schools, community centers). Will the renovation be an adaptive reuse for residential use. Or, remain as school/ community center.
