PS 2018-02-05 Item 2A - Public Safety Plan - Fire Station 51 Schematic Design
C �z City of Tukwila a Allan Ekberg, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM TO: Public Safety Committee FROM: Rachel Bianchi CC: Mayor Ekberg DATE: January 30, 2018 SUBJECT: Fire Station 51 Schematic Design and Updated Fire Station Budget ISSUE The City has completed Schematic Design on Fire Station 51. As the Council's Program Management Quality Assurance (PMQA) Consultant has indicated, the end of Schematic Design provides the owner with the first "real" budget number for the project. Even with value engineering, rejecting some program elements and critically reviewing the schematic design, costs for the fire station projects have increased since the last budget was shared with the Council in May of 2016. However, staff continues to recommend moving forward to the next stage, design development. BACKGROUND After the passage of the voter -approved Public Safety Bond in November of 2016, the City initiated the fire stations projects. Because the site for Fire Station 51 was previously determined, the City began design on this station immediately while doing the necessary analysis to determine potential locations for the other two stations, 52 and 54. The fire stations have gone through the programming stage to determine the critical needs of the building, necessary adjacencies and equipment to be housed in the facility. At the end of the programming phase, an updated budget was shared with the Council that estimated an $8.4 million gap between the Public Safety Bond and what was thought to be the overall budget for all three fire stations. After programming, Lydig Construction was brought on board to serve as the project's General Contractor/Construction Manager (GC/CM). Having a GC/CM early on allows the project team to have well-informed, real-time access to project estimators, updated costs of materials and a better overall understanding of the costs associated with construction. Additionally, now that sites for the other two stations have been determined, the City has much-needed information including budget impacts associated with site conditions. During the schematic design phase some of the programming square footage for Fire Station 51 grew, making the building approximately 1,500 square feet larger than contemplated in the programming phase. There are three key reasons for this growth in square footage: • Both apparatus bays able to accommodate the ladder truck -- while only one bay is needed to be large enough to accommodate the ladder truck, the geometry of the building makes it more functional to have both bays the same length. There would be minimal financial savings from shortening one of the bays, which would create more corners, which are costly. • Planning for future growth — one of the key design principles of this effort was to plan the station in a way that could be expanded in the future, which is accomplished by identifying where the third bay and additional bunks and restrooms would be constructed. However, this also meant future -proofing some of the other spaces, such as gear storage, etc. for future growth as their locations in the building would not allow for future growth. 1 2 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 • Inclusion of air locks — another key principle of the design effort was to prioritize firefighter safety throughout the building and focusing on clearly separating the "hot, or contaminated" and "cold, or uncontaminated" areas of the building. This was accomplished in schematic design with air locks that go between the living quarters and apparatus bays, but they also required additional square footage not included in the programming effort. With schematic design complete, two separate cost estimating efforts for Fire Station 51 occurred, one under the direction of the City's architects at Weinstein A+U and one through Lydig Construction. This is standard practice to arrive at a final cost estimate for schematic design and the two estimates are reconciled to the satisfaction of all parties. The estimators then took the costs identified for Fire Station 51 and applied them to Fire Stations 52 and 54, based on square footage, as well as what is known about the specific sites. Market conditions cost escalation was also included for Fire Stations 52 and 54. Both Fire Stations 52 and 54 sites have potentially challenging site conditions and therefore the budget is carrying higher development costs for those sites than for Fire Station 51. The initial cost estimate for all three fire stations came in at more than $20.4 million above the budget identified in the Public Safety Bond. The program management consultant, design team and GC/CM initiated a value engineering effort to reduce costs and found an additional $400,000 in savings on the Fire Station 51 project. It is expected that when Fire Stations 52 and 54 get to the end of their schematic design phases there would be additional value engineering efforts associated with both of those buildings. In addition, the design team looked at what a minimal station design (with the smallest footprint possible, with the current program elements) would look like for Fire Station 51 and what the potential cost savings would be should the City chose to scale down accordingly. However, the minimal station design saved less than $500,000 in construction costs and included two detrimental flaws: • No ability to expand the building, conflicting with one of the major design principles of the overall program • Unacceptable operational deficiencies, including a lack of area for firefighters to drill on the site Because of the relatively small savings associated with the minimal station design and the significant unacceptable tradeoffs, the entire project team endorses moving forward to design development with the original design of Fire Station 51. This original design does not include some of the alternates identified early on, such as the roof extension for the future build out, on- site fueling or the additional parking spaces. The City chose to use the GC/CM method of delivery because it provides us with better certainty throughout the project. Lydig has a strong track record of accurate schematic design estimates, historically coming in at one to three percent of the final construction budget. Had the City gone the traditional design bid build method, the budget realities would not surface until construction bids were in, leaving the City with little time to determine a course of action moving forward. The entire project team understands the gravity of the $20.4 million gap between what was in the voter -approved Public Safety Bond and the current cost estimates for the three fire stations. It is also understood that this does not reflect the gap in the other equally important Public Safety Plan projects and that difficult decisions will need to be made. The City Council Finance Committee is analyzing alternatives to closing the Public Safety Plan funding gap and will be W:12G18 Info Memos\FDschematic.doc INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 3 providing recommendations to the full Council for deliberation and determination later this spring. RECOMMENDATION Staff is seeking committee approval to forward this issue to the February 12, 2018 Committee of the Whole meeting for consensus that the City continue into the Design Development phase for Fire Station 51. Despite the budget challenges, the need for modern, safe fire stations remains very real, for the broader community and for the fire fighters that work in these facilities. Staff recommends moving forward with Fire Station 51 while the Finance Committee continues its work to identify strategies for closing the financial gap on the Public Safety Plan. The Council will continue to have multiple decision points in the future that provide "off ramps" if so desired.
