I-tAKOPE TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Kris Wilson, Assistant City Administrator DATE: 07/21/2015 SUBJECT: Next Steps for Future City Hall (B) Action Sought The Council is asked to authorize the hiring of BKV Group for the preparation of plans and specifications for a new City Hall, at a cost of$360,000. Background At the April 7 City Council meeting, the Council heard the results of a City Hall Feasibility Study conducted by the architecture firm of BKV Group. The study presented four possible options for meeting the needs of City Hall, including remodeling within the footprint of the existing building, adding on to the existing building, tearing down the existing building and building new on site, and building a new City Hall on Gorman St., adjacent to the Police Station. Following discussion, the Council voted 4-1 in favor of building new on Gorman St. and directed staff to bring the issue back during the month of July. The construction of a new City Hall adjacent to the Police Station would provide a one-stop shop for residents and customers by locating a majority of City operations and staff along Gorman St. The proposed new building would provide additional space plus much-needed improvements to the function, flow and security of City Hall. The estimated total project cost for a two-story structure is $7.3 million. The next step in the process would be to proceed to design of the building and preparation of plans and specifications for bidding the project. This includes: A. Schematic Design This would include the development of all floor plans, exterior elevations, building sections, landscape plans, a narrative summary of all engineering systems and a more refined cost estimate than what was developed as part of the feasibility study. B. Design Development This includes full development of the civil engineering and building systems such as HVAC, plumbing and electrical. C. Construction Documents Budget Impact BKV has submitted a price proposal of$360,000 for the above work and estimates it will take approximately 7 months from start to finish. Funding for this portion of the project would be taken from the City's General Government Buildings Fund. Relationship to Vision This item relates to Goal B: Positively manage the challenges and opportunities presented by growth, development and change. Recommendation Staff recommends proceeding with full design of a new City Hall and preparation of plans and specifications. Requested Action The Council is asked to authorize the hiring of BKV Group for design and preparation of plans and specifications for a new City Hall, at a cost of $360,000.
