Peachtree City approves $7.98 million guaranteed maximum price for Fire Station 85
Summary
Council approved a guaranteed maximum price of $7,981,687 for Fire Station 85 under a construction-manager-at-risk contract with Mija Construction; staff said ground-breaking is planned for August with completion targeted by June 2027.
Peachtree City council voted to approve a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) of $7,981,687 for the construction of Fire Station 85 under the construction-manager-at-risk contract with Mija Construction.
Project manager Tim Simons described the GMP as the result of the CMAR process and subcontractor pricing and said constructability reviews informed the final amount. The council previously awarded Mija the CMAR scope in April; this GMP represents the subcontractor pricing and the construction package for the station. Council approved the GMP by voice vote; staff said they plan to break ground in August and aim for substantial completion by June 2027.
Council members noted the large expense but supported moving forward, pointing to the need to staff and open the station—staff also noted hiring three firefighters for Station 85 in the upcoming budget year.
