CC Regular Session 7, 3, Meeting Date: 03/08/2022 By: Grant Riemer, Engineering/Public Works Information Title: Adopt Resolution #22-059 Accepting Bids and Awarding Contract for Improvement Project #20-07, Construction of Salt Storage Building at PW Facility Purpose/Background: Purpose: The purpose of this case is to consider adopting Resolution #22-059 accepting bids and awarding a contract for construction of Improvement Project #20-07, Salt Storage Building at the PW Facility Background: Included in the original design proposal for the new PW Facility was a line item to relocate the existing salt storage building to the new site. Once design of the facility started, it appeared that the budget would not allow, so the relocation was put on hold. Because of the favorable bidding climate and relatively minor corrections needed during construction, the contingency balance on the new PW Facility as of today is estimated at $1.2 million. Project Location / Scope City Improvement Project #20-07 proposes to replace the current salt storage building located at 14100 Jaspar St and construct a new salt storage building at the new PW Facility located at 14199 Jaspar St Existing Conditions / Proposed Improvements The Cover All structure brand, which is our current salt storage building, went out of business due to under -engineered structural failures within their buildings. Part of their ensuing settlement was reinforcement performed by a third party, of their existing structures, including the Ramsey structure. That was only reinforcement and it rendered the existing structure(s) only serviceable in -place. Moving or resale required a wholly separate re -engineering of the structure. During the inspection of our existing structure with a local building representative (who at the time of the reinforcements worked for the company that performed the corrections), they observed the enhanced supports on the lower chord of the roof truss, as well as larger bracing between the trusses that made this building viable in place, but not relocatable. Notification: On July 13th , the City Council approved solicitation of bids on plans and specifications as prepared by Oertel Architects. Bids were advertised in the Anoka Union Herald on January 14th and 21 st .
