Alderman Klee
We currently have one of these. Will we be trading it in or is this an addition to?
Director Tim Cummings
This would be in addition to. It’s referenced here as S185. It’s pretty old and it’s at its end of life. We're going
to try to just use it and get what we can out of it until it no longer functions.
Alderman Klee
Thank you.
Alderwoman Lu
So we only have one at all times?
Director Tim Cummings
For my individual.
Alderwoman Lu
| see. Thank you.
MOTION CARRIED
From: Dan Kooken, Purchasing Manager
Re: Contract for Design and Construction for the Division of Public Works Facility (Value: $997,204)
Department: 160 Admin/Engineering; Fund: Bond
MOTION BY ALDERMAN HARRIOTT-GATHRIGHT TO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE, AND AWARD THE
CONTRACT FOR THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION FOR THE DIVISION OF PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY
TO HKT ARCHITECTS IN THE AMOUNT OF $997,204. FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE IN DEPARTMENT 160
ADMIN/ENGINEERING; FUND: BOND
ON THE QUESTION
Director Lisa Fauteux
So HKT is the architect for the DPW facility for the bond that was approved. Back probably two years now |
guess or maybe longer, we had put out an RFQ for architectural services when we were looking at Burke
Street and HKT was the chosen company. They’ve done a fair amount of programming already for the facility
so it made sense to continue working with them. This contract really takes us through completion of the
facility. There’s a number of items that HKT will be doing for us from preliminary work, through schematic
design, design development phase. This will include things like architectural services, civil engineering
services, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services, building life code safety. Cost estimating is not
included. There’s a number of other items — landscape architecture, conceptual design, all of that and also
structural. So that’s all included in this contract.
Alderman Klee
| Know this is just the design but for those that are listening in the audience, could you just remind us as to
what Divisions will be housed in this once it is built.
