Council Report 2000-120
Present Public Works Building Project
Proposed Action. No action required. Purpose of item is to describe proposed
Public Works building project.
Overview.
For several years now the City's Capital Improvement Plan has included a
project to improve the Public Works vehicle storage facilities at 11100 Excelsior
Boulevard. The current CIP calls for project design this year and construction in
2001. Staff has solicited architectural and engineering services proposals and is
ready to move forward with project design. Project funding is proposed through a
$1.6 million HRA revenue bond.

Analvsis of Issues.
. Project Description
The project will demolish the existing building #2 and constuct a new 200' x
106' addition to the existing building which fronts on Excelsior Blvd. The
addition will be constructed of insulated precast double tee concrete panels
on the east and west sides to match the existing building and a steel bar
joist roof. Infrared heating and adequate ventilation and lighting will be
provided. The western 40' of building #3 will be demolished and an outdoor
equipment wash area will be constructed, modifications will be made to
building #3 to allow the for interior salt storage.
. Project Cost & Funding
The estimated project cost is $1.6 million ~ this includes the cost of design,
construction and bond fees.
The project is proposed to be funded through a $1.5 million HRA revenue
bond. The HRA would in~turn lease the facility to the City. The city would
make annual lease payments for 15 years. Staff estimates the annual lease
. payments to be $150,000. These payments would be funded by the general
fund and the four utility funds (water, sewer, refuse and storm sewer). Staff
proposes that the general fund pay 47% or $70,000 per year and the utility
funds pay 53% or $80,000 per year.
The taxpayer impact of this proposal is as follows:
· $7lyr for a residential property with a year 2001 market value of
$120,000
· $121yr for a residential property with a value of $190,000
· $94/yr for a commercial property with a year 2001 market value of
$620,000
The utility funds can cover the $80,000 annual payment without the need for
associated rate increases. In fact, based on the current CIP it appears that
a future storm sewer rate reduction may be possible on or about the year
2010.
. Project Benefits
· Provide heated and properly ventilated indoor parking for all Public
Works equipment. This equipment is valued at over $2 million.
· Improve safety by allowing proper cold weather inspection of trucks.

· Improve efficiency of snow and ice control operations by eliminating
warm-up time for diesel engines and hydraulic systems
· Increase the useful life of equipment that is currently stored outside
· Reduce maintenance and repair costs of all equipment
· Replace a 63 year old storage building with a concrete masonry building
addition that matches the existing Public Works Facility.
· Allow use of building #3 for sand and salt storage. This building is
currently used as cold storage for street maintenance equipment.
. Project Schedule
· Design: Sept - Dec, 2000
· Advertise: Jan/Febf 2001
· Construct: May- Sept, 2001
. Public Safety space needs study
A recently completed Hopkins Public Safety space study shows the need for
up to 23,000 SF of additional space for the Police/Fire Cepts. Before Public
Works project design begins, Council has directed that we look at the
possibility of whether the Public Works/Pavilion/Central Park area could also
accommodate .a future Public Safety facility. If the additional Public Safety
facility proves feasible, then the PubHc Works project design must consider
this future new facility siting. This site investigation is underway and staff
should have a recommendation by early August, 2000.
