RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1 Adopt the attached appropriations ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Capital Projects Reserve Fund by 589,866 00 from increased
revenues, and
2 Authorize the transfer of 589,866 00 from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund to the

3 Adopt the attached appropriations ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Specially Funded Capital Projects Fund by 589,866 00 from increased
revenues, and
4 Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Southwest Industrial Constructors,
Inc , in the amount of 589,866 and 60 calendar days for the replacement of the floor slab
in the equipment bays of Fire Station No 22
DISCUSSION
The equipment bay floor at Fire Station No 22 is constructed of structural concrete channel
beams and shows signs of excessive setting deflection as evidenced by failure of the concrete
topping The Fire equipment cannot be parked in the facility in a fully loaded, ready status A
structural engineer under contract to the City has evaluated the floor and advised the City that
sudden collapse is possible if fully loaded trucks are parked in the bays It was determined that
it would be necessary to replace the floor slab in order to allow the equipment to be safely
parked inside the bays Two alternative floor replacements were evaluated (1) installation. of a
concrete floor on a gravel subgrade and (2) construction of a structural concrete floor on piers
The second alternative was recommended as a permanent solution in order to prevent the floor
movement which would have been expected with the first solution
A design and cost estimate was prepared for the second option Due to increases in the
construction cost estimate it was decided to bid the project
The following bids for this project were received on August 3, 1995, after being advertised on
July 6 and July 13, 1995
