TITLE:

title

Approval of a Consultant Agreement, in the Amount of $969,416 with The Miller Hull Partnership, for the Maintenance and Operations Center Master Plan

OVERVIEW STATEMENT:

recommendation

Attached for Council’s review is a consultant agreement with The Miller Hull Partnership in the amount of $969,416 for the Maintenance and Operations Center (MOC) Master Plan, Project No. 50002301.15. The Master Plan is expected to be delivered in early 2024 with construction scheduled to begin in 2027.

 

The current Maintenance and Operations building is well past its useful life, no longer fits the needs of a growing City and is inefficient for current staff workflow. The multi-year project will deliver a redeveloped operations site and office building with open and flexible crew, office, meeting, and emergency response spaces that will accommodate Parks Operations and most, if not all of Public Works staff. The improved site layout will provide better equipment protection, modernized shops, as well as central storage, and a combined Fleet facility. In addition, parking spaces will be provided for approximately 300 vehicles (staff and fleet).

If yes, explain:

The MOC Master Plan was added to the operating budget at Council’s request. The contract is over the Operations portion of the amount budget by $469,416 due to:

                     Inclusion of space planning and design concepts

                     Identification of permitting requirements

                     Accommodation of Parks Operations staff and potentially all of Public Works staff (including those currently in City Hall); it will also combine general and Fire fleet facilities in one location

                     Identification of project delivery method (Design-Bid-Build, Design Build, or General Contractor/Construction Manager)

                     Inclusion of some predesign elements such as sustainability approach, identifying sequencing challenges in workspace relocation, etc.

If approved, Finance will do a budget adjustment to move up some of the CIP project predesign funding from the next biennium to the current Master Plan to fund the predesign elements of this effort.
