Provide public spaces and amenities that attract the community to the natural environment. DISCUSSION: Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to seek City Council authorization to enter into the City’s standardized contract for the installation of new carpet at Fire Station #1. History Each year the City Council adopts the Facilities Management Plan (FMP) which involves various improvement projects. This project falls within this funding. The carpet in Fire Station #1 is the original from when the building was constructed in 1996. The Fire Station not only hosts fire fighter training and events, various community groups also benefit from this location. This includes such groups as home owners associations (HOA’s), scouts, townships and toastmasters. This facility gets a lot of use. Carpet squares will be installed so that damaged areas can be easily replaced. To save on costs, staff will move all furniture. Current Circumstances The City received two proposals for carpet and installation and the quotes are listed in the table. Carpets Plus of Burnsville $24,970.32 Floors on a Roll $31,570.00 Carpets Plus of Burnsville is a reputable company who has years of experience in carpet installation. Conclusion Staff is recommending that City Council accept the quotes and award the project to Carpets Plus of Burnsville and approve the resolution to authorize the execution of the City’s Standardized Contract for purchase and installation of carpet at Fire Station #1. ISSUES: Considering the magnitude of this project, the City does not have staff to provide installation of carpet.
