AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION
This request is grouping several construction projects under a Job Order Contract (JOC) to save on management fees so it is tied to a single project instead of management fees for several projects.
These projects are:
· Station 571 Concrete improvements. Due to the extreme weight of the Ladder trucks the Asphalt has deteriorated on the South side of the building, the drive from the gate to the fuel system is in need of repair. Contractor will pour 8” concrete with microfiber to replace the damaged asphalt area. Note: all future stations built with concrete drives. The expenditure will be paid from the Capital Projects Fund-Fire Support Services, budget line (35022528-67730-38011).
· Station 571 and 574; these two stations built in 2005 and 2006 have a problem with exhaust smoke filling the bay. This causes an unsafe condition for the fire fighters and the bays have to be power washed to clean soot off the walls. FCI will hire a HVAC engineer to determine how to bring these stations up to standard and automatically clear the bay of exhaust smoke. The expenditure will be paid from General budget line (10022528-54430).
· General Maintenance of the Facilities such as repainting, shade screens, Remodeling kitchen and modification of fueling sites. General budget line (10022528-54430).
Approval of this request will enhance public safety and assist in the daily operations in the fire department.
This item will be presented by Brady Leffler.
