City staff told the Port Washington Common Council on Jan. 7 that design work for a proposed public safety building is on schedule and that construction bids are expected next week.
Rob (last name not specified), staff lead on the project, said the core project team would meet again Friday to finalize details and that design completion was expected the same week. The construction manager's current budget estimate is $33.5 million, which the staff presentation said includes soft costs, land acquisition, furniture and energy costs; the building construction cost alone was estimated at about $28.5 million.
Rob said staff will provide a full presentation to the council at the next meeting, with the owners' representative, MC Group, presenting. The council was not asked to take a final funding action at the Jan. 7 meeting; bids must be opened before final costs are known.
City staff and the construction manager identified the schedule and cost estimate as preliminary and subject to change once bids are returned. The project team planned continued coordination with the design team and expected to have the bid package released the week following the Jan. 7 meeting.
