Board approves task order for Fire Station 3 renovations to add separate living quarters
Summary
A task order under the UrbanArc master contract was approved for design and construction administration for Fire Station 3 renovations, adding about 600 square feet for separate living quarters and facilities for female personnel.
The Board of Aldermen approved a task order under the city's UrbanArc master contract for Fire Station 3 renovations to provide separate living quarters and related facilities for female personnel.
City staff said the project will add approximately 600 square feet, including two living quarters, restrooms, showers and storage. The task order covers architecture and engineering design (not to exceed $22,002.50) and bidding and construction administration services ($15,000). The work is funded through the facilities renovations budget and was described as responding to the department’s changing staffing needs.
During discussion a board member asked whether the addition would extend the building footprint; staff replied there is sufficient space on the station property and that the design is expected to fit within available real estate. The board approved the task order by voice vote.
Nut graf: The renovation responds to the department’s staffing profile and aims to provide separate, gender-appropriate living facilities within Fire Station 3. The task order is an individual project under an existing master agreement with the architect/engineer firm.
