SUBMITTED BY: Richard Dublinski, Director
BACKGROUND:
In 2016, the City established CIP Project MB160, Downtown Parking Deck Maintenance Program, as a multi-year capital project to ensure the central business district (CBD) parking decks are maintained as a sustainable asset in Special Service Area #26. The Central Parking, Van Buren and Water Street parking decks were built in 1987, 2001, and 2015 respectively. Per an assessment completed in 2017, these decks require repair, renovations, and ongoing maintenance. In August 2019, the Department of Public Works issued RFP 19-256, Parking Deck Consultant Services, to partner with a consulting engineering firm with expertise in parking decks to provide design, bidding assistance and construction management services for City parking deck projects of various size and scope.
DISCUSSION:
In Spring 2022, Walker Consultants completed assessment of the municipal parking decks and assisted in the development of a five-year renovation and maintenance plan. The Van Buren facility needs structural repairs, lighting upgrades, traffic coatings and painting essential for safety and function. This change order is requested to add $15,117.88 to the contract for the development of the specification, drawings and related documents necessary to bid the work prior to the 2023 construction season.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP #: MB160
Parking Deck Consultant Services are expensed to the building improvements account below. The work is related to MB160, Downtown Parking Deck Maintenance, for which $325,000 is budgeted for 2022. The change order amount is within budget for this expense.
