CASE # AUTHORIZATION TO EXPEND CONSTRUCTION DOLLARS FOR 14100 JASPAR STREET N.W. (NEW PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY) By: Ryan Schroeder, City Administrator Backgroun~d: On September 1, 1994, Council received the attached memorandum regarding the new Public Works facility at 14100 Jaspar Street N.W. Page two of the memo reiterates the Council-approved remodeling budget and construction costs based upon quoted prices. One can see!that to-date, the budget allocations were fairly close with the exception of the floor drain ~ystem. The Iow door bid on the attachment has also been withdrawn. Thus, we will be re-quoting this segment. It has been intended that we provide a dual trench floor drainage system for catchment of water, salts,;and other materials from the heavy equipment. The current budget overage results from icontract recommendations to remove the entire existing floor and starting over. Due to the e~;timated overage, this project segment is being rethought and delayed until the other large project costs (i.e. paving, landscaping) are known. Any Council input is appreciated. We have not yet received remodeling bids/leasing proposal from ACEDP for the steel building on ~his site. They are looking, however, at using either the entire building orjust an a portion ag option given concerns expressed by Councilmembers. The building is currently divided into three areas and could be further divided. In any case, because of the concern, Public Works Supervisor Mevissen has proposed the attached layout for use of the 14100 b~ock building and the existing T.H. #47 facilities. It had been intended that this layout be r4viewed by the Public Works Staff on September 7, 1994, but this has been delayed to ~eptember 16, 1994, due to schedule conflict~. In any case, it is apparent that all of our e~uipment can fit inside the various buildings. Whether layout efficiency can be improved %ill be determined by the Public Works Staff. Any input on this is also appreciated.~ Committee Action: Motion to r~ecommend Council authorize proceeding on remodeling of the property at 14100 Jasper Street N.W. including doors, HVAC/air exchange, roofing, electrical, landscaping and paving in amounts not to exceed budget allocations pursuant to the Minnesota bid law.
