ARPA: Driskell Park Community Building Renovations

end

 

Suggested Action:

recommendation

I move the Mayor and Council authorize an expenditure not to exceed $32,000 to SMC for the inspection, engineering, and repairs to the exterior stormwater features of the Driskell Park Community Building under their existing contract with the City. This work will be funded using American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds and the Treasurer is authorized to make the budget amendments necessary to facilitate this expenditure.

end

 

Summary Background:

The Driskell Park Community Building has not received any major work in over 30 years. Many of the systems in the building have reached the end of their useful life or are worn out after years of heavy use. City staff had a consultant evaluate the building and prepared a report that identified deficiencies and areas of concern. One of the areas of concern is flooding and stormwater management in the immediate area around the building. SMC holds on of the City’s current on-call contracts for stormwater engineering and design, and has performed a number of installations, repairs, and maintenance of stormwater features all over the City.

 

Next Steps:

Issue purchase order and begin work.

 

Fiscal Impact:

NTE $32,000
