REQUEST: Fire Department requesting authorization for emergency repairs to Fire
Station # 24 and # 26 to eliminate water intrusion including a supplemental
budget appropriation of $17,000.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Commission item is to gain Commission authority to
authorize the City Manager to award a contract for emergency building repairs to
Fire Station # 24 at 102 North Moss Road and Fire Station # 26 at 850 Northern
Way for an amount not to exceed $17,000.00 and to request a supplemental
funding appropriation of$17,000 from the General Fund reserves to fund the
request.
CONSIDERATIONS:
Fire Stations # 24 and # 26 were both originally constructed of natural (non-painted)
concrete exteriors. During the Hurricane season of 2004 and 2005 the Fire Department
experienced water intrusion into the building through the exterior walls which damaged
some of the drywall, carpet and interior furnishings. All the interior damages have been
repaired, however to prevent further water intrusion, exterior preparation and coatings are
required to be applied to the exterior surfaces of the buildings. Furthermore the external
sealing of these buildings will prevent mold and mildew growth between the interior
walls and the external walls. The Fire Department has contacted contractors to receive
quotes to properly prepare the exterior of the buildings and to apply coatings which will
prevent water intrusion. All contractors were provided with a scope of work that would
properly remediate the problem and to also add color to the exterior of the buildings so
that the structures would fit better into the community. After all quotes are received per
the scope of service a recommendation to the City Manager will be made for decision to
