Bettendorf to consider Estes Construction as construction manager at risk for police station, City Hall renovations
Summary
The Bettendorf City Council will consider a resolution Dec. 17 to approve an agreement with Estes Construction to serve as construction manager at risk for proposed police station and City Hall renovation projects, according to the city’s agenda packet and staff preview.
Bettendorf City officials will ask the City Council to approve a resolution naming Estes Construction as the city’s construction manager at risk (CMAR) for a proposed police station and City Hall renovation project, city staff said Dec. 16.
Angie Sharp, community engagement manager for the city of Bettendorf, told a committee of the whole meeting that the item is on the agenda packet and summarized the proposal. The agenda packet contains a project summary on page 58 and the council is scheduled to vote on the resolution at its regular meeting at 7 p.m. Dec. 17 in City Hall.
The CMAR model typically brings a construction manager into the project during design to help manage cost and schedule risks; the city’s notice does not include a contract amount, project timeline, or other financial details. Those specifics were not provided in the staff preview and will be subject to the formal agenda materials and presentation at the council meeting.
The item was introduced during the committee of the whole so council members could hear staff presentations and ask questions before the vote. The city’s published agenda packet and the Dec. 17 council meeting are the formal venues where any contract terms and vote tallies will be recorded.
Bettendorf’s meetings are open to the public and livestreamed. The agenda packet referenced by staff is available on the city’s website.
