Council approved a contract with FCI Constructors Inc. for the Fire Station 1 bathroom remodel project in an amount not to exceed $234,878. Administrative project manager Jerry Tealy said the project updates two bathrooms and converts an adjacent storage room into a recharge room to support firefighters' needs and improve operations at the long-standing facility.

Tealy noted the project had been on the list for years and that some scope growth was expected as the condition of existing facilities became clearer. Council members who visited the station described aging showers and facilities and expressed support for moving forward. The contract uses a cooperative contract mechanism (GPA cooperative contract 23-15 PB job order contract) and was approved by motion and voice vote.

The council did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; staff will proceed with contract execution and project scheduling under the approved budget not to exceed the cited amount.
