SUMMARY
The Fire Station 6 and Fire Training Center (FS6/FTC) project commenced construction on August 17, 2020, and was anticipated to be completed in the Fall of 2022. While fire department personnel have moved into the new fire station and Las Positas Chabot College District students are using the facility, there are remaining outstanding construction items that need to be completed in order to close out the project. It is anticipated that these items will be completed by the end of July 2024.
Throughout the course of construction, construction management services provided by Kitchell and inspector of record services provided by ABC have been necessary to ensure that construction complies with project plans, specifications, and codes and regulations. Council adopted resolutions authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements with Kitchell for construction management and with ABC for inspector of record services prior to the commencement of construction. Due to the extended construction duration, the current budget allocated for services by these firms will not be sufficient to close out the project. Staff is requesting amendments in the amounts of $90,000 with Kitchell and $50,000 with ABC which are necessary to complete the project.
