Agenda Item:
Resolution accepting feasibility report and ordering project for Capital Improvement Project 11031; Public Safety Center Apparatus Bay Door Replacement.
Recommendation/Action(s):
Adoption of the attached resolution
Summary:
The existing apparatus bay overhead doors at the Public Safety Center were originally installed in 2011 with the remodel of the facility and have seen rapid deterioration over the last several years, including leaks in the windows, opener mechanism issues, and finish failure on the exterior. As the primary station for the fire department, these doors see extensive use throughout the day. Several options were explored for replacement, including direct replacement with bifold doors and a transition to a standard overhead door.
Suggested improvements include the replacement of the existing bifold doors with standard overhead or lift doors. With the advancements in opener technology, the operation is much faster than at the time of original installation and this will standardize our maintenance schedules at all three stations. In addition, if a door fails in the future, parts are more readily available for this style of door and opener, which will reduce downtime. The estimated cost of the necessary improvements is approximately $440,000 and will be executed through a budget amendment. The recommended improvements to the Public Safety Center are being proposed for the fall of 2025.
The estimated costs and funding sources for the project are as follows:
Staff recommends the Council accept the project feasibility report, order city staff to prepare final plans and specifications, and instruct the City Manager to advertise for bids in accordance with the requirements of law.
