INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Transportation and Infrastructure Committee
FROM: Hari Ponnekanti, Interim Public Works Director
BY: Peter Lau, Senior Program Manager
CC: Mayor Allan Ekberg
DATE: October 2, 2020
SUBJECT: Minkler Shop Interim Improvements
Project No. 91930606
Project Update
Issue
Provide an update on the Minkler Shop Interim Improvements.
BACKGROUND
On December 2, 2019, Council, with a vote of 7-0, approved design of Public Works Shops Phase 1 (Fleet and
Facilities tenant/seismic improvements) and the Minkler Shop Interim Improvements that included security, lighting,
and additional lockers and restrooms with a budget $500,000. On March 23, 2020, Council approved a contract for a
not to exceed amount of $308,000 to provide improvements to the restroom facilities at Minkler Shop.
DISCUSSION
After some assessment of the existing restrooms inside the Minkler Shop, Public Works de termined that a new
modular restroom building, with additional lockers and a shower, is a more economical way to provide the same
restroom upgrades.
An added benefit is that the modular restroom can be relocated to the new Public Works Shops on Tukwila
International Blvd. An ancillary restroom, closer to equipment, would be beneficial to crews throughout the day.
Through the job order contract process, the City executed a contract with Saybr Contractors, Inc. to design and
construct the new modular restroom building with a contract amount is $259,792.16. This modular restroom will
provide two restroom stalls, one urinal, one shower, two sinks and 20 lockers. Currently, Saybr is securing the
building permit and working with an engineering group to approve/stamp the modular restroom design. Construction
is expected at the Minkler Shop site in late October or early November this year.
After the completion of the modular project, remaining funds will be utilized for a security gate and additional light
fixtures at Minkler Shop.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The contract amount of $259,792.16 with Saybr Contractors is within the authorized budget of $308,000.
