SUMMARY
The America Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) included funding to invest in building and infrastructure to both support and expand City operations and services in a post-COVID environment. One of the Council’s Strategic Priority projects that supports infrastructure investment is the complete remodel and renovation of aging restroom and locker room facilities in the City’s Corporation Yard (Corp Yard) buildings. This project will improve the aging restroom and locker room facilities utilized by field staff in both Maintenance Services (MS) and Public Works-Utilities Environmental Services (PWUES) by reconfiguring the usable space more efficiently, replacing outdated infrastructure installed over 60 years ago, and making improvements to meet ADA compliance.
Furthermore, the project scope will improve ventilation and modernize the facilities to support adequate social distancing in an effort to reduce transmission of the COVID virus in the workplace. Staff recommends entering into an agreement with Staples Construction Company (Staples Construction) to completely renovate the restroom and locker room facilities at the Corp Yard that will provide accessible, serviceable, and healthy workspaces for City employees.
