City selects contractor for affordable homes, approves contracting for fire training facility
Summary
Council selected Tobler Construction to build single‑family homes on two city lots in the Woodlawn subdivision and approved supplemental task authorizations and construction management contracts related to the new Fort Myers Fire Department training facility, including an amendment awarding work to Stevens Construction.
Council selected Tobler Construction for RFQ No. 0055‑24 to build affordable single‑family homes on two city‑owned lots in the Woodlawn subdivision (lots 9 and 10) and approved motions advancing the affordable housing construction program. The council was told the project will deliver house #2 and #3 and that the program was nearing completion of house #1, with subsequent houses expected in about 60 days.
Separately, council approved a supplemental task authorization and selected a construction manager at risk for the Fort Myers Fire Department training facility adjacent to Station 16. The item included a change order closeout and release of final retainage for previous water treatment plant work and an amendment increasing design/service contracts for wastewater treatment improvements.
Council passed the items with motions on the city manager agenda; staff indicated contracting and closeout documentation were accepted and would allow next steps in project delivery.
