Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to enter into contract for the Office of Construction Management with Ardmore Construction Management and Engineering for the renovation of the kitchen in Fire Station No. 2, located at 150 East Fulton Street. Work will include an upgrade of the kitchen and dining areas with new cabinets, new plumbing, paint, windows, window coverings, and furniture. In an effort to minimize cost, no new appliances will be purchased.

Fire Station No. 2's kitchen was renovated in the late 1980's; however, the current kitchen is in a state of disrepair and in need of renovation. Numerous cabinet doors are missing or falling apart. The missing cabinet doors allow exposure of various cleaning chemicals and cooking equipment. The renovation will also include the removal of old plumbing equipment and fixtures and the installation of new plumbing equipment and fixtures. A grease interceptor will be added, as it is required by City Code. The window replacement is for the kitchen area only. The current kitchen windows are single pane with metal frames and are not energy efficient.

Formal bids were solicited and five companies submitted bids on August 5, 2008 as follows (1 FBE^, 1 MBR*, 1 ASI+)

Ardmore Construction Management and Engineering $129,850.00
^Bomar Construction Company, Inc. $141,751.00
*Allen Ballew General Contractors $142,505.00
+Rockwood Builders Ltd. $168,000.00
WB Republic Builders, LLC $174,000.00

The Office of Construction Management recommends the bid award be made to the most responsive and responsible and best bidder, Ardmore Construction Management and Engineering.

EMERGENCY ACTION is requested for the operational needs of the kitchen in Fire Station No. 2, thereby providing necessary accommodations for food preparation.
