MEMO:
TO: City Council
FROM: Rick Koch
DATE: January 13, 2016
SUBJECT: New Heavy Equipment Storage Building, Ordinance No. 2877 -2016
The purpose of this correspondence is to recommend Council Approval of Ordinance
2877 -2016, appropriating $250,000 for the construction of street crew facilities and a
building maintenance area in the new equipment storage building.
The new equipment storage building, scheduled for completion in February 2016,
includes an approximate 2,000 square foot area which is unfinished. The City was able
to include the exterior building shell for this area as a result of having received
extremely competitive bids. The exterior building was constructed for the future build -out
of crew facilities and a building maintenance area.
Presently, the streets crew and building maintenance area are located in a small metal
building and the old warm storage #1 building at the old City yard. Construction of the
crew facility and building maintenance area will move all City operations, except the
Parks & Recreation Department to the new city operations & maintenance campus.
Build -out of the crew facility and building maintenance area will eliminate the annual
lease costs the General Fund presently incurs as a result of leasing an Airport Fund
owned building and property. The Warm Storage #1 building would then be available as
an Airport lease property.
The City has discussed the build -out of these areas with the contractor constructing the
new equipment storage building and the contractor has expressed an interest in
submitting a proposal for the work as a change order to the existing contract.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
