This project is for the planning, design, and construction of a Fire Training Center on City-owned land approximately ½ mile north of Olathe West High School (home to the district’s Public Safety Academy). The property is bounded by City-owned land to the north, east and south, and by residential to the west. The scope will include a training “burn” tower; a small building to house restrooms, storage, office space, plus a covered outdoor classroom space; significant site improvements; and space for future small fire training “props”.
This contract with Crossland Construction, Inc. will construct the site improvements and the small building housing the restrooms, storage, and office space plus the covered outdoor classroom space. On December 3, 2019, City Council approved the contract for the design, fabrication, and installation of the Fire Training Tower component of the project.
Three scopes of work were bid as alternates and are proposed to be included in the contract. The alternates include full site lighting, motor-operated vehicle gates and a monument sign along Hedge Lane.
Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in early July 2020 with completion by the end of the year. It is anticipated that the Fire Training Tower component of the project will be completed in Spring 2021.
