RE: Public Safety Plan
October update
Fire Station 51 and Justice Center construction activities continue. Station 52's early works
continue. Programming and master planning of the consolidated shops facilities has been
completed. 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 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 mini-MACC, final MACC, and construction
Lydig's $8.1 million mini-MACC contract amendment to begin Station 52 earthwork,
site utilities, and structures was approved by Council 15 July. Construction activities
began onsite 22 July. The revised budget is $23.49 million. Just -opened bids for most
of the remaining project scope are encouraging enough for the project team to
consider buying the Fire Dept. administration alternate. The final MACC amend-
ment to approve the full scope of construction is expected in Public Safety 4 Novem-
ber for possible discussion at COW 12 November and approval by Council 18 No-
vember. To follow construction progress, see SOJ's Construction Management Monthly
Report in Council's first regular meeting packet beginning next month.
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 a year ago. Committee consensus was to revisit the
options after Stations 51 and 52 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. The Fire Dept. expects to hear soon whether it moves to the next round on
its 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 is $39.83 million.
JUSTICE CENTER
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. Use of owner's project contingency
to fund an interlocal agreement with the City of SeaTac for frontage improvements on
Military Road S was approved by Council 3 September. To follow construction pro-
gress, see SOJ's Construction Management Monthly Report in Council's first regular
meeting packet each month. Absent another unexpected event, no further Council ac-
tion is anticipated until project completion and acceptance fall 2020.
DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE AND LOCAL HIRING
Council policies
Council unanimously passed Resolution 1929 April 2018, adopting DBE and local hir-
ing 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. Updates are included with SOJ's Construction Management Monthly Report in
Council's first regular meeting packet each month.
Fire Station 51
Lydig has $2.2 million of DBE subcontracting under contract.
Fire Station 52
Lydig has initial DBE subcontracting in process for its early works.
Justice Center
BNB has $4.6 million of DBE subcontracting under contract.
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 four years.
Master plan and phasing proposal
SHKS's master plan and phasing proposal was presented to Transportation & Infra-
structure 8 October and will be brought back to TIC 22 October for possible dis-
cussion at COW 28 October and approval by Council 4 November.

CONSOLIDATED SHOPS continued
Design services contracting
In conjunction with SHKS's master plan and phasing proposal (above), Public
Works will present a design consulting amendment to SHKS's contract for reno-
vation of the existing Heiser building.
Renovation contracting
Public Works is reviewing contracting options for renovation of the existing Heiser
building.
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,
Fire Station 52, and Justice Center construction activities are underway.
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 future consol-
idated shops project costs are realized.
LEGEND
Meeting target
Proceeding as planned.
Caution advised
Steps needed to meet target.
