PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS <br /> Department: Public Works <br /> Item: Public Works/Parks Maintenance Building Improvements <br /> Year(s): 2023 <br /> Cost: $4,197,000 <br /> Sources <br /> $197,000 TIF <br /> $1,000,000 Non-fleet (HVAC,Roof) <br /> $1,000,000 PW Fleet (borrow) <br /> $700,000 Capital Projects <br /> $350,000 Water <br /> $350,000 Storm <br /> $350,000 Sanitary <br /> $250,000 Pavement Management <br /> Description: <br /> In 2020 the Public Works site underwent a transformation to support an 154 unit <br /> multifamily apartment and adjacent parking. The area available for operations was <br /> significantly decreased, and the Tin Shed Site (used for materials deposition)was <br /> absorbed by the 204 unit senior apartment building. With these changes, the existing salt <br /> shed was replaced, a smaller onsite material bin was added, a spoils site was added at the <br /> South Water Tower site, the warm storage building was repurposed, and a site use study <br /> was completed to address staff and storage areas. <br /> Justification: In 2023 the 8th Avenue extension project will be included with Phase 2 of <br /> the Old Highway 8 road diet. This phase will reconstruct Old Highway 8 from 5th St NW <br /> to CR D. The 8th Avenue extension will further reduce the outdoor storage area on site <br /> and will eliminate the existing visitor parking lot. Currently Public Works and Parks <br /> Maintenance has made the best of the building, but this includes 2 lunch rooms, a non- <br /> efficient men's locker room, and a small bathroom that is dedicated to only women. The <br /> site was also not designed with meeting space, a maintenance worker computer area, or <br /> gender specific locker/bathrooms. The new design will provide a larger lunch area that <br /> can also be used for training opportunities and engagement. The building will receive a <br /> much needed facelift, while also replacing a subsurface HVAC system and a new roof. <br /> 20 <br />
