Master Plan Next Steps
ISSUE
Approve the Public Works Shops Master Plan and funding for Public Works Shops Phase 1. Update on the Public Works
Shops Master Plan and seek approval for financing the improvements to the Heiser property.
BACKGROUND
The City hired SHKS Architects to conduct a Master Planning and Programming effort for the City's Public Works Maintenance
Shops facilities in September 2018. Master Planning efforts are a good tool to logically implement overall facility
improvements. The Public Works Master Plan envisions the redevelopment of over 13 acres of land, which will serve the
Public Works Department into the future with planned growth through the year 2045.
SHKS conducted several meetings with PW staff, visited the existing facilities, toured similar PW facilities in the region and
developed a Master Planning and Programming Report. Several options were discussed and the selected Master Plan and
the proposed tenant improvements to the Heiser site are the most practical and least expensive option.
The current George Long building lacks sufficient spacing for routine maintenance and is also one of the most seismically
deficient City building. The new site will be much safer for our employees and provides more space, therefore increasing
operation efficiency. In addition, some of the equipment from Minkler Shops can also be moved to Heiser, allowing more
space at Minkler Shops for maneuverability and productivity.
ANALYSIS
The findings from the Public Works Shops Master Plan are summarized in the attached updated PowerPoint presentation.
The City took possession of the Heiser properties in July 2019 and will take possession of the UPS site in 2023.
Master Plan Summary
• The Public Works Shops First Phase 1 of the Master Plan focuses on relocating the PW Fleet Maintenance and
Facilities divisions from George Long Shops to the Heiser property after seismic retrofitting and upgrades. The First
Phase 1 will also include moving the Police vehicle evidence storage and spoils from the Longacres site.
• The Longacres site will need to be vacated and moved to the Heiser site by 2021. To meet federal NPDES
regulations, spoils need to be stored in a covered site.
• Public Works staff agree that the best option is to move George Long and Longacres operations to the Heiser Building.
• George Long was chosen to move to the Heiser Building, after necessary renovations, as the George Long Building
is seismically and environmentally deficient and is hazardous to City employees.
• The Fleet mechanics work full-time in George Long as opposed to other Public Works employees that are mainly in
the field. The George Long facility does not have an adequate exhaust system and does not meet regulatory
requirements.
• As George Long is seismically deficient, if there is an earthquake and the building is destroyed, the entire City would
be without the facilities and fleet divisions to assist with Police, Fire and other emergency operations.

Next Steps
Approval of $4.4 million for funding the PW Shops First Phase 1 (to move forward with Heiser improvements)
• Demolition of two outbuildings at the Heiser site. Oct/Nov 2019
• Heiser design for seismic retrofitting and interior and exterior improvements. Upgrades to HVAC, mechanical,
electrical, and storm drainage. Nov 2019 — April 2020
• Advertise and award seismic retrofitting and improvements. April 2020
• Project completion. December 2020
Staff will return to Council for financing of Phase 2.
Phase 2 - Possession of UPS site in 2023. Build Administrative offices and relocate Minkler. Cost estimate of $33 million.
At the completion of Phase 2, all Public Works employees will be relocated to safe and efficient facilities.
Phase 3 — Build new Fleet Maintenance Building, demolish Heiser Building, and install covered storage for $37 million. At
the end of Phase 3, all future needs will be met with the entire buildout of the Heiser and UPS sites.

Total $ 26,191,051.88 $ 30,000,000.00 $ 4,400,000.00
Budget Balance $ 3,808,948.12
SHKS estimates that the PW Shops First Phase 1's costs will be $5.8 million and soft costs at $2.4 million, for an estimated
total project cost of $8.2 million. Project soft costs include design fees, construction management fees, construction
contingency, and sales tax.
The 2019 CIP's PW Shops budget is $30 million and to date $26,191,051.88 is estimated to be spent, which leaves a
balance of $3.809 million. To complete the PW Shops First Phase 1 at an estimated cost of $8.2 million, additional funding

of $4.4 million is needed. The current funding has the PW Shops split 50/50 between the General fund (Streets, Facilities, &
Fleet) and the Enterprise funds (Water, Sewer, & Surface Water). To continue with this 50/50 division, the General fund will
need to budget $2.2 million and the Utilities would fund the remaining $2.2 million.
Both Water and Sewer Utilities appear to have sufficient unreserved fund balance to absorb the additional costs, further
analysis is needed to determine if the Surface Water utility can absorb the additional costs with the current rate model.
There is funding available in all three of the Water/Sewer/Surface Water Utilities to fund the $2.2 million that will not impact
utility rates or capital improvement projects.
FINANCING PLAN
To fund the gap of $2.2 million in the General fund, funds can come from two sources. A transfer of $1 million from the
general fund to the arterial street fund is currently budgeted in 2020. Because there is currently a healthy fund balance due
to impact fees exceeding budget, the budgeted transfer can be redirected to the PW Shops project fund. Additionally, the
2020 general fund budget has a budgeted surplus of $1.4 million and could be utilized to fund the remaining request of $1.2
million. Staff will walk through the entire financing plan at the meeting on October 8, 2019.
Due to favorable interest rates in the bond market, coupled with the City's upgrade in rating from AA to AA+, total debt
service for the 2019 LTGO bond issue was $3.6 million less than budgeted (attached in updated financing schedule). The
resulting savings will be realized in the general fund and utility funds over the life of the bonds, which is 20 years. The
general fund will realize savings of approximately $2.8 million and the utility funds will realize a combined savings of
$800,000.
Minkler Shops Interim Improvements
Until we take possession of the UPS site in 2023, Minkler Shops will require some improvements in the interim. Currently
there are limited bathroom facilities, only one shower, and the locker room does not have adequate space. Proposed
improvements include an expansion of the men's restroom, relocating the locker room and building a new mud room. Also
proposed are safety and security upgrades that include additional yard lighting and main gate improvements. The existing
gate is currently not automated and left open during the day as staff come and go. The cost estimate for the Minkler Shops
Interim Improvements are $500,000 and would be included in a new CIP project with funding from the Utility Enterprise
funds.
Update after 10/22/19 Transportation and Infrastructure Meeting:
• An updated PowerPoint presentation includes a full timeline and details of the Master Planning effort along with the
two options developed (Spine and Filter).
• Staff has confirmed that the only Minkler upgrade in the last ten years was a renovation to the surface water office in
2016 for $27,000.

Transportation & Infrastructure Committee Minutes October 8, 2019
E. Demolition Agreement: Public Safety Plan - Public Works Shops Phase 1
Staff is seeking Council approval of Amendment No. 5 to Contract 18-001 with Lydig
Construction in the amount of $73,707 for demolition of the Lifestyles landscape building and
the former coffee shop building on the new Public Works shops site. Council Resolution 1964
declared these building, fixtures and equipment as surplus and authorized their disposal, and
demolition is deemed necessary to begin the other site improvements and to deter squatters
and trespassers. Chair Idan noted that the estimated project management hours seemed high
and asked if BNBuilders had been asked to participate? Staff stated that Lydig has the capacity
to perform this demolition work now and BNBuilders do not. RETURN TO COMMITTEE.
F. Public Safety Plan - Public Works Shops Phase 1
Staff is seeking Council approval to move forward with Phase 1 of the Public Works facility
Master Plan, which was created by SH KS Architects in partnership with Public Works staff at all
levels. Staff recommends beginning implementation of the Master Plan by moving the George
Long operations, Police vehicle evidence, and spoils from the Longacres site to the Heiser site
as the most practical and least expensive option. Subsequent phases will include the entire
buildout of the Heiser and UPS sites and relocation of the Minkler operations. The UPS building
is not available until 2023. Phase 1 is estimated to cost $8.2 million. The CIP budget for PW
Shops has a balance of $3.783 million, so an additional $4.4 million is needed. Of that, $2.2
million is available from utilities, and existing resources can be reallocated to fund the
remainder, offset by reduced debt service payments due to better than projected interest rates.
The City needs to identify funding for Phase 2 and beyond and will put together a
comprehensive facilities plan to identify all the needs. Councilmembers discussed the proposal
and did not arrive at a recommendation to move forward with Phase 1 at this time. Staff was
asked to return to Committee with additional information on the following:
• Better justification for George Long operations to move ahead of Minkler
operations
• Other options for housing Minkler staff, such as former landscaping building, 6300
Building, Station 51
• Opportunity to discuss Phase 2 and beyond
• Call out in the memo that no utility projects will be delayed by moving forward
• Cost estimate for improving current Minkler site
• Contingency update on other Public Safety Plan projects

Chair !clan announced that item B will be postponed to another meeting.
A. Public Safety Plan - Public Works Shops Master Plan
Committee members and staff continued discussion of the Public Works facility Master Plan
and the request to move forward with Phase 1. Phase 1 includes moving the George Long and
Longacres site operations to the Heiser site which was determined to be the most practical and
least expensive path forward. Future phases will include the entire buildout of the Heiser and
UPS sites and relocation of the Minkler operations. Staff returned with additional information
explaining the preference to move George Long staff and operations before Minkler staff and
operations, more detail about funding Phase 1, and a $500,000 cost estimate for near -term
improvements to the Minkler Shops. Councilmember Kruller does not support putting money
into Minkler and asked for a list of investments at the site since 2011. She would also like to
understand how much of the Master Plan is "must have" versus "nice to have," and asked if
Phase 1 could be broken down further. Staff replied that seismic work, wiring and exhaust
cannot be phased and bid results will be more favorable with a total package. Mr. Goldblatt
agreed that it would be more expensive to separate Phase 1 into further phases. He stated that
the Master Plan is a well -designed program and Phase 1 is not an expensive retrofit for the scale
of the operation. Councilmember McLeod asked about stopping after Phase 2, and if that
would have an impact on the design of Phase 1. Mr. Hartung advised that the full program
through Phase 3 reflects a consolidated operation and that stopping at Phase 2 will not get the
City the recommended site circulation or needed space for operations through 2045.
Councilmembers Kruller and McLeod asked several questions about what other design options
had been considered, which can be found in the Plan appendices. Staff will plan to present
additional information about the design options to the Committee of the Whole. Chair !clan
clarified that funding for Phase 1 is in place and as a result he supports moving forward as the
deficient Public Works buildings need to be addressed. Councilmembers McLeod and Kruller
were in favor of forwarding the discussion to the Committee of the Whole without a Committee
recommendation. NO MAJORITY RECOMMENDATION. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 28, 2019
