Title:
Request for Quotation for the Design and Construction of Exterior Finishes to Pump House No. 3
Purpose/Background:
Pump House #3 was one of the very first buildings in The COR, predating the Municipal Center's which was completed in 2006. At the time of construction, the decision was purposeful to not finish the exterior, preferring to do so at a future time when public realm elements and civic architecture could be best understood, and the Pump House's finish could align with the architectural standards of today .
Since approximately 2005, the city has had this project (finishing the facade of the Pump House) within the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP worksheet is shown as the second attachment, identified as a 2020-21 project.
This case would authorize Staff to issue an Request for Quotation for the Design and Construction of Exterior Finishes to Pump House No. 3—essentially obtaining costs for the design-build completion of the building.
It may be noted that the RFQ this case discusses, only relates to the completion of the Pump House's building facade, and does not address the approximate 100' x 100' space around the structure which, aside from the driveway is likewise in a unfinished state. Completion of the grounds (sidewalk/concrete surfaces, turf, landscape and irrigation), will be addressed separately and after this RFQ process for the building itself.

Observations/Alternatives:
One alternative to the issuance of the RFQ, would be to do nothing at this time. Staff does not recommend this, as there are two finished residential buildings adjacent to the Pump House that are completed, and were required to meet certain architectural standards. Leaving the Pump House unfinished would not seem prudent, and could be viewed as incongruent with standards for private development.
If authorized, the RFQ would be issued in March with quotes due back in April, with the proposals returning for Council consideration at the end of April or May of 2021.

Funding Source:
Funding for the completion of Pump House #3 would be from the Municipal Water Utility. It may be noted that this capital improvement project has been factored as part of each Water Utility rate study to date, and accordingly, considered budgeted for.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends proceeding with the issuance of an RFQ for the Design and Construction of Exterior Finishes to Pump House No. 3
Action:
Motion to authorize the issuance of an RFQ for the Design and Construction of Exterior Finishes to Pump House No. 3
