Resolution 6662 Supporting to Accept Alternatives for Contracts 2.20 and 2.60 in Bid Package #1 for New SBM Fire Station #3 Fire Chief Zikmund stated this is part of the discussion for the new fire station, for an alternate they requested of the construction manager and architect. He explained the Fire Department spends the most money on fixing the parking lot and roofs. This alternate was received at the same time as the bids but staff didn't have enough time to research whether it should be considered. Staff is now recommending the Council act on this item. The alternate would increase the parking lot base from 9 inches to 12 inches and adds a geofabric into the bituminous. This method of construction will significantly increase the durability, wear, and strength of the parking lot. Fire Chief Zikmund recommended approval since this Fire Station is a training location and receives heavy truck use. He advised that the Spring. Lake Park Council acted on • the alternate last Monday and the Blaine Council will act on it November 7, 2005.
