Body

________________________________________________________________________________

Summary:

The Fire Station No. 9 project has been approved in the 2023 CIP and the 2024 CIP.  This project is for a new single company fire station to be constructed on City owned property on the north side of College Boulevard approximately 1,500 feet west of Woodland Road. 

 

Agreements with Finkle + Williams for the design of the project and with JE Dunn Construction for construction management services were approved on November 21, 2023.  Upon the award of contract to Finkle + Williams, staff immediately began working with Finkle + Williams on the initial space programming, the building and site planning, and the massing and aesthetics for the fire station.

 

Tonight, City staff and representatives with Finkle + Williams will lead a presentation on the current status of the project design.  This presentation will provide Council with an overview of the process leading to the development of the concept design for the fire station, and will focus discussion on the building massing, building elevations, and suggested materials proposed for the exterior of the fire station.
