AGENDA ITEM: Resolution Approving a Work Order for Architectural Services for
the Fire Station 2 Remodel Project
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt a resolution approving a work order for architectural services for the Fire Station 2 remodel
project.
BACKGROUND:
The Fire Station 2 remodel project includes the following proposed changes to accommodate a
future full-time staff at that location:
• Conversion of existing office and storage spaces into four new residential dormitory
rooms
• Alteration of circulation at restroom/changing rooms along with new sinks and millwork
• Addition of an exit and patio for the dayroom
• Enclosure and protection of electrical service and equipment at the base of the hose
tower
• Alteration and upgrade of existing HVAC systems and controls
CNH Architects, a member of the City’s consultant pool, has submitted a proposal in the amount
of $46,000 to provide architectural services that include design, preparation of construction
documents, and bidding/construction administration. Staff recommend approval of this work order
so the design process can begin, which will allow staff to proceed with grant applications to help
fund the project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project is not currently included in the CIP. Once the architect has completed the design and
develops an estimated project cost, Fire Department staff will apply for grants to fund the project.
The $46,000 cost for the work order will be paid from the following combination of funds:
Account Description Amount
101-41940.00-54320.00 Facilities - Misc Expense $2,000
101-41940.00-54010.02 Facilities - Maintenance Agreements $20,000
440-41940.00-55520.00 CIP – Building Improvements $24,000
