Public Works Consolidation Update

June 1, 2026 Regular Meeting
June 22, 2026 Committee of the Whole
111 Discussion Only ❑ Action Requested
MOVE TO: No formal motion requested. Staff is seeking Council
consensus on next steps for the Public Works Phase II project
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The city has a significant facilities portfolio that requires continuous investment and deliberate life -cycle
management. Public Works Phase II is the final remaining Public Safety Plan project intended to
consolidate Public Works operations, vacate aging/inadequate facilities, and provide the infrastructure
to better support emergency response, equipment storage, crew training, and daily delivery of essential
public services.
Staff will present an update on Public Works Phase II and seek Council consensus at the June 22
Committee of the Whole on the financing plan and next steps. No formal action or expenditure
authorization is requested at this meeting.
DISCUSSION
Public Works operations are currently split across multiple locations that create operational
inefficiencies, inadequate storage, emergency -response challenges, and substandard working
conditions. The proposed project scope focuses on the core operational needs required to consolidate
Public Works functions while deferring or eliminating non -essential elements proposed in earlier
concepts.
The attached presentation summarizes the city's facilities portfolio management concepts, recap of the
Public Safety Plan, and the proposed PW consolidation project budget and financing approach.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
No expenditure authorization is requested with this agenda item. Staff will return for future Council
action before issuing debt, awarding contracts, or appropriating additional project funding.

Why Consolidate?
Lost Productivity & Capabilities
• Insufficient salt and sand storage for a
prolonged storm response
• Utility emergency response time slowed
due to spare parts scattered
• Traffic signal shop not suited for sensitive
electronic components
• 30-35 workdays lost annually to shuttling
fleet assets to/from Minkler
• Tools, materials, and equipment
controlled by crew rather than function
Inadequate Working Conditions
• Does not meet certain employer
requirements
• Toilets, gear stowage, safety equipment,
decontamination
Insufficient Staff Parking
Poor lighting and HVAC
Makeshift storage bays and racks
Inadequate fire suppression
