Recommendation:
BKV Group, City Staff, and the Public Works Committee have identified "Option A" in the attached report as the most desired site/ building layout. All three groups recommend the City Council adopt the attached space needs analysis. By adopting the attached report, the City Council is providing the following general policy direction/ making the following observations:
Option A eliminates the City's ability to connect McKinley Street across the public works campus in the future. In addition to the parties previously mentioned, this specific item was discussed by the Planning Commission. All parties are comfortable with eliminating a potential future McKinley Street connection across the public works campus. Attached is a reference map and Planning Commission minutes. Due to the change in proposed layouts for improvements to U.S. Highway 10, the McKinley Street connection is no longer a priority.
(2) Option A results in the ability to market and redevelop about 18.03 acres of land (9.36 and 8.67 pieces). This information will be brought back to the EDA for further discussion.
(3) A Public Works Campus is estimated to cost about $13M (2017 dollars). Moving forward, this number can be utilized in future policy discussions (strategic planning, budget discussions, CIP, etc.). Staff plans on bringing back a case to discuss the next step in the process to construct a new public works campus at a later date--preliminary design (January).
(1) Option A in the attached report is the desired concept layout. This will solidify where the future public works campus will be located; and how much land is needed.
