<br />1 <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />ITEM NO. 3 <br /> <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director <br /> <br />WORK SESSION DATE: September 2, 2025 <br /> <br />TOPIC: Public Works Building, Design Update <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />Staff has been working with the design team to complete the space needs programming and <br />schematic design of the building. The space needs evaluation included a determination of <br />existing and future square footage for administration, vehicle storage, fleet maintenance and <br />division workspace needs. Schematic design includes the overall layout and site and building <br />functional design. This includes discussion on specific space needs, required facility <br />components such as equipment lifts, wash bays, training/conference rooms, and exterior <br />storage. <br /> <br />Site layout has played a significant role in the building layout as well. We have tried to balance <br />numerous site constraints, access, vehicle flow, and exterior operations to maximize <br />efficiencies. The preferred site plan consolidates exterior storage, fueling, and salt storage in <br />the rear of the facility. The building avoids the existing monopole. Staff and customer parking <br />are in the front along Main Street. Primary access is from West Rondeau Lake Road in <br />anticipation of future access restrictions to Main Street. <br /> <br />Representatives from Oertel Architects will be present to discuss design considerations. Staff <br />will be working with Oertel and RJM to develop the initial cost estimates based on the proposed <br />layout. <br /> <br />REQUESTED COUNCIL DIRECTION <br /> <br />None required. Staff is requesting comments/concerns from the council on the proposed <br />layout. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />1. Preliminary site plan/building layout <br /> <br />Page 2 of 8
