Fire Station Building Committee <br /> Iutes 2 <br /> April 23, 1998 <br /> REPORTOF 1_L ARC=. /__T i <br /> The basement design option in the schematic revision was also reduced <br /> y the architect. The design is proposed to include an elevator and <br /> stairway. It does not contain finish construction at this bine. <br /> Discussion followed with regards to obtaining additional space for future <br /> expansion needs. Conventional framing over the apparatus bay to obtain <br /> an enlargement of 2500 square feet was discussed in lieu of the basement <br /> design proposal. <br /> Dr. letti related concern with respect to this regard, and requested the <br /> Committee give consideration to incorporate the basement design option <br /> in the schematic proposal. <br /> It was noted that the schematic design of the facility was redesigned from <br /> 18500 square feet to 16,500 square feet. Approximately 4,600 of existing <br /> building space is presently located in the apparatus bay area. <br /> Preliminary cost estimates were obtained from A.M. Fogarty & Associates <br /> for the intended project scope. Mr. Sweeney indicated that he has worked <br /> with this cost estimating firm for the past twenty years. The cost estimating <br /> firm specializes in budgeting, preliminary design development, final cost <br /> estimates, quantity surveys and value engineering. <br /> Growth in the local economy has determined increases in unit costs per <br /> square foot and general construction costs informed Mr. Sweeney. <br /> A.M. Fogarty submitted a summarized cost estimate as fol lows; <br /> Existing.Building S 27310752 <br /> Scheme A: <br /> Phase f $1172811")86 <br /> Phase 11 S 9011>656 <br /> Total Existing and Scheme A: $21903,793 <br /> Basement Option S 2493878 <br />
