RE: Public Safety Plan
July update
Fire Station 51 and Justice Center construction activities continue. Station 52's early works
will soon be underway. Programming and master planning of the consolidated shops facili-
ties nears completion. Boldfaced entries below 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 in the Council's first
regular meeting packet each month. Absent an unexpected event, no further Council
action is anticipated until project completion and acceptance next summer.
Station 52 pre -construction services and mini-MACC
Drive -through Station 52's revised budget of $23.49 million will be presented for
Council approval 15 July. Council consensus was reached at COW 24 June over
proposed sources to fund Station 52's $4.23 million increase. Lydig's $8.1 million
mini-MACC contract amendment —including sales tax and contingency —to begin
earthwork, site utilities, and structures was presented to Public Safety 1 July and for-
warded for Council discussion and consideration 15 July. The final MACC amend-
ment will follow in October/November to approve the full scope of construction. The
City has agreed to timely permitting; approval is expected to enable early works as
scheduled.
Station 54 assessment
Last year, 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 prepar-
ing a grant application for funding.

FIRE STATIONS continued
Stations' budget
Including Station 51's and Station 52's budget growth and Station 54's substantially re-
duced scope, the stations' overall revised budget of $39.83 million will be presented
for Council approval 15 July. Council consensus was reached at COW 24 June
over proposed sources to fund Station 52's $4.23 million increase.
JUSTICE CENTER
Full MACC and construction
The MACC amendment to authorize BNB's full scope of work was approved by Council
3 June. The Council -approved budget is $67 million. To follow construction progress,
see SOJ's Construction Management Monthly Report in the Council's first regular meet-
ing packet each month. Absent an unexpected event, no further Council action is antici-
pated 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 this month. Council is
receiving regular updates.
Fire Station 51
Lydig has over $1 million of DBE subcontracting in process.
Justice Center
BNB has over $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 this month.
PROGRAM BUDGET
Market conditions
All program element budgets are sensitive to tight construction market conditions.
These external budget pressures will continue to manifest themselves as Fire Station
52 and future consolidated shops project costs are refined.
