PROJECT NO. 4
FIRE STATION No. 11
TYPE OF TEAM DESIRED:
The design team should be headed by an architectural firm with experience in the design
of Fire and Rescue Stations or similar facilities. The team should include but is not limited
to, a civil engineer, structural engineer, mechanical (plumbing, HVAC, fire protection)
engineers and electrical engineers.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Fire Station No, 11 (5920 W. Flagler Street) is an older existing building that has had
several renovations and additions in the past. The Fire and Rescue Department wants to
replace the existing fire station with a new state-of-the-art facility that will also be a
prototype for several other fire stations they are planning to build. The project has a
budget of approximately $2.0 million for design and construction under the City's
Homeland Defense/Neighborhood Improvement Bond (HD/NIB) program.
The work to be performed under a contract with the City consists of conceptual design,
construction documents (plans and specifications), bidding of the project (through the
City), inspection of the construction, and administering of the construction contract. The
design of this fire station is intended to be a prototype for several other fire stations
planned to be built under the HD/NIB Program. Future fire stations will be built by using
the prototype building construction plans with a new site plan for each location. The
architect selected for the project shall be prepared to negotiate a fee for the prototype
design and construction plans as well as a fee for the re -use of these plans with a new
site plan, as appropriate.
