RE: Public Safety Plan
June update
Fire Station 51 and Justice Center construction activities are underway. Station 52's design
development phase is complete; early works bidding is underway. Programming and mas-
ter planning of the consolidated shops facilities nears completion. Boldfaced entries be-
low are updated from last month's report.
FIRE STATIONS
Site acquisition
The City owns the property planned for deferred Fire Station 54, and its use or disposi-
tion will be a future Council decision. Lydig demolished the property's structures. De-
ferred Station 54 lot consolidation is close to completion.
Station 51 construction
Lydig's MACC (Maximum Allowable Construction Cost) amendment was approved by
Council 25 March. The Council -approved budget is $14.8 million. To follow construc-
tion progress, see SOJ's Construction Management Monthly Report included in
the Council's first meeting packet each month. Absent an unexpected event, no
further Council action is anticipated until project completion and acceptance
next summer.
Station 52 design development and pre -construction services
Drive -through Station 52's Council -approved budget is $19.26 million. Lydig's sche-
matic design estimate —including the administrative tenant improvements as an alter-
nate —was presented to Public Safety 20 May and COW 28 May. The estimate is
$4.23 million over the approved budget. Weinstein AU's design development has
been completed, and Lydig's updated estimate shows no further budget growth.
A mini-MACC contract amendment to begin earthwork and site utilities will be pre-
sented to Public Safety 1 July and COW 8 July for Council consideration 15 July.
The final MACC amendment will follow in October/November to approve the full
scope of construction. The City has agreed to a timely permitting schedule; approval is
expected to enable early works as scheduled.

FIRE STATIONS continued
Station 54 assessment
Last June, Council asked for an estimate to make life safety improvements to existing
Station 54. Staff presented four potential options —with very rough order of magnitude
cost estimates —to Public Safety 5 November; see Rachel Bianchi's 30 October memo
for details. Committee consensus was to revisit the options after Station 51 and Justice
Center construction costs firm up. The Committee agreed that the existing station
needs modest maintenance and repairs for the health of firefighters there. City staff is
compiling costs for presentation to Public Safety this summer. The Fire Dept. is pre-
paring a grant application for funding.
Stations' budget
Including Station 51's budget growth and Station 54's substantially reduced scope, the
stations' overall Council -approved budget is $35.6 million. Station 52's estimated
budget will further increase that amount by $4.23 million. Sources to fund the in-
crease were discussed in Finance Committee 28 May and 10 June and forwarded
for Council consideration at COW 24 June.
JUSTICE CENTER
Full MACC and construction
The MACC amendment to authorize BNB's full scope of work was approved by Coun-
cil 3 June. The Council -approved budget is $67 million. To follow construction pro-
gress, see SOJ's Construction Management Monthly Report included in the Coun-
cil's first meeting packet each month. Absent an unexpected event, no further
Council action is anticipated until project completion and acceptance fall 2020.
DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE AND LOCAL HIRING
Council policies
The Council unanimously passed Resolution 1929 April 2018, adopting DBE and local
hiring policies for the Plan's projects. The DBE goal is 17% and the local hiring goal is
20%, complementing the City's 10% apprenticeship requirement of Resolution 1814.
Extensive outreach efforts continue with the DBE community in this very competitive
market. The first metrics that the Council sees can be expected next month. Council is
receiving regular updates.
Fire Station 51
Lydig has about $1 million of DBE subcontracting in process.
Justice Center
BNB has about $2 million of DBE subcontracting in process.

CONSOLIDATED SHOPS
Property acquisition
The City has agreements with all three property owners. Lot consolidation on two
properties is underway. Ownership of the third property will transfer in 4+ years.
Programming and master planning services
Having worked closely with Public Works staff, SHKS is incorporating their feedback to
two test -fit master plan options. Council can expect a master plan and phasing pro-
posal to be ready for Public Safety and COW next month.
Renovation contracting
The project team is reviewing contracting options for an initial scope of renovation
work on existing facilities.
OTHER RESOURCES
Professional services
The project teams have been working through procurement of additional consultant
resources for the Fire Stations and Justice Center.
PROGRAM SCHEDULE
Tight schedule
The overall schedule remains very ambitious. With so many activities under way, there
is little room for any missteps to meet the Plan's revised milestones. Fire Station 51
and Justice Center construction activities are underway. Fire Station 52 is on a tight
schedule to begin its extensive earthwork next month.
PROGRAM BUDGET
Market conditions
All program element budgets are sensitive to tight construction market conditions.
These external budget pressures will manifest themselves as Fire Station 52 and future
consolidated shops project estimates are refined.
LEGEND
