Council hears $6.5M Public Works annex plan; staff to bring bond options
Summary
Public Works presented a proposed annex building for equipment storage, training and vehicle bays with an estimated phased cost of $6.5 million; staff requested council consensus to schedule bond‑counsel to discuss funding options for upcoming street bonds and potential water/sewer revenue bonds.
Public Works presented renderings and a program for a proposed Public Works Annex designed to consolidate shop space, indoor vehicle storage and training/meeting rooms.
Randy described the annex as roughly 8,200 sq ft of administrative space plus about 23,700 sq ft of shop/vehicle storage in the rear; the design includes phased awnings, storage compartments and detention grading. He said the city has been planning the site for many years and estimated a phased construction cost of about $6,500,000. City management asked council for consensus to invite bond counsel to describe options for the next $6 million in street bonds and potential revenue‑bond structures tied to water and sewer to fund capital needs. Councilors discussed staffing needs at build‑out and agreed to proceed with presentations to inform budget decisions.
