5.6. SR 04-12-2010Item # 5.6. city E river MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Lori Johnson, City Administrator DATE: April 12, 2010 SUBJECT: Public Works Master Plan Update The 2010 Capital Improvement Plan includes $100,000 for planning and design of the public works complex expansion and $250,000 for replacing the fuel tanks and pump island at the public works complex. The actual expansion of the public works facility itself is not budgeted unti12012 at the earliest. This item is coming forward now because of the need to replace the existing fuel tanks. The fuel tanks are single-ply tanks that were installed during the original project construction in 1987. The fuel tanks need to be replaced with two-ply tanks in order to meet current leak detection requirements. However, before the fuel tanks are replaced or relocated, the master planning for the entire site needs to be completed to ensure that the tanks and fuel island are put in the correct location to accommodate future expansion of the public works building. In October, the City Council approved the process for proceeding with the master plan. Staff is requesting authorization to begin that process so that the fuel tanks and island can be updated in 2010. A staff committee consisting of department head and division manager representatives from public works, parks and recreation, finance, and community development will participate in the process. This first step is only to request proposals for qualifications for architects and to interview architects. Following selection of a qualified architect(s), a proposal will be requested and presented to the Council for approval. S:\Public Bodies\Council\Lori\2010\PW Master Plan.doc
