BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

 

On March 13, 2023 City Council approved the construction of the utility and site improvements associated with the new Fire Training Complex located at 353 FM 306. This first phase of the complex includes a driving course and areas for emergency vehicle response training. The proposed modular classroom includes restrooms and indoor training space intended to supplement the on-site training activities.

 

The total cost for the contract with Sustainable Modular Management for purchase and installation is $196,099.  Sustainable Modular Management is an authorized vendor through a cooperative contract with BuyBoard and complies with competitive procurement requirements.

 

ISSUE:

Continue an ongoing program of infrastructure construction and maintenance.

 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of the modular building and associated improvements will be funded by unused contingency from Fire Station 7 and the Fire Training Center Site Improvements projects which is funded by the Creekside Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ), therefore sufficient funds are available.

Recommendation

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the approval of a contract with Sustainable Modular Management for the purchase of a modular building for the Fire Training Complex.
