Council approves $19.82 million GMP for Fire Station 124 and related project items in consent agenda
Summary
As part of a unanimous consent-agenda vote, the Plainfield Town Council approved a $19,820,000 GMP with GM Development for the Fire Station 124 BOT program, authorized project management/construction inspection work and approved hiring five full-time fire territory employees.
Plainfield — Jan. 26, 2026
Plainfield's Town Council approved a series of project and procurement items in its consent agenda that include a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) of $19,820,000 with GM Development for the Plainfield Fire Station 124 build-operate-transfer (BOT) program, project-management and construction-inspection work orders, and the hiring of five full-time employees for the Fire Territory.
The GMP was listed in the consent agenda as "GMP Report Exhibit F-1 with GM Development in the amount of $19,820,000, for the Plainfield Fire Station 124 BOT program." The consent packet also included Work Order No. 26014.06 with Butler, Fairman & Seufert for not-to-exceed $536,000 for project management and construction inspection on Fire Station 124, and a motion to hire five full-time employees for the Fire Territory was recorded as a consent-item approval.
Councilmember Mark Kingseed moved to approve the consent agenda and Mr. Angle seconded. The council voted by roll call with all five members recording yes votes, adopting all consent items together rather than voting separately on each listed contract.
Why it matters: The GMP and work orders move a major capital project forward and add staff capacity to the Fire Territory; the combined actions commit significant town and bond/TIF resources that were identified in the consent-item descriptions.
Next steps: Project execution and contractor coordination will proceed under the contracts and work orders approved by the consent agenda. The record shows funding sources listed in the consent item descriptions (bond proceeds, multiple TIF funds) but does not provide a consolidated project budget beyond the GMP figure noted in the consent item.
