SUMMARY: A Resolution amending Resolution No. 15732 to update the finance project account numbers assigned to projects related to the Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: On April 22, 2024, City Council approved Resolution No. 15609 which awarded a construction contract to Nunn Construction, for Project No. 24-010 Construction of Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11. The funding for that contract was from Capital Project Fund No. 456 - Fire Stations. On May 13, 2024, City Council approved Resolution No. 15637 which established two finance project accounts, including CI2435 for the construction of Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11; and CI2434 for the procurement of new fire apparatus. On May 28, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 15641 which approved Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement for Professional Architectural Services with Allred and Associates. The funding for that amendment was to be paid from account CI2435 - Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11. On June 10, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 15651 which awarded an agreement for Professional Consulting Services in the amount of $196,470.00 to Ground Engineering Consultants, Inc. The funding for that agreement was to be paid from account CI2435 - Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11. On August 12, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 15719 which amended Resolution 15637 to update the finance project account numbers assigned to the projects for the Fire Stations 6, 8, and 11. On August 26, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 15732 which amended Resolution 15609, 15641, and 15651 to update the finance project account numbers assigned to the projects for Fire Stations 6, 8 and 11. On February 24, City Council approved Ordinance 10903, approving and authorizing the Mayor to execute an IGA between the City of Pueblo and the State of Colorado, Colorado Energy Office, providing grant funding in the amount of $270,000 and establishing, budgeting and appropriating funds in the amount of $90,000 to each of the following three projects: CI2451, CI2452, and CI2453. BACKGROUND: The City of Pueblo and the City of Pueblo Fire Department have committed to electrification in the construction of the three new fire stations. To reduce potential grid impacts and to improve winter resiliency, we are leveraging geothermal resources. The design process included evaluation of several design alternatives prior to the present focus on geothermal energy and a geoexchange system. In addition, we completed a geothermal test well to validate the suitability of these sites for geoexchange. The geothermal systems are coupled with high efficiency VRF and ERV HVAC systems within the fire houses along with high efficiency lighting and building envelope. The City received a grant for geothermal improvements for each of the three new fire stations, 6, 8 and 11. The funds for each of the geothermal grants were placed in separate accounts, per Ordinance 10903. This money needs to be allocated to pay Nunn Construction for a portion of the construction contract for the geothermal work that is being done on each of the Fire Stations. The funds that were previously allocated pay the contract will be reallocated to contingency funds. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: This Resolution makes administrative changes to assign new project account numbers to the subject projects. There is no change to the anticipated project costs associated with this action. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable to this Resolution. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Not applicable to this Resolution. ALTERNATIVES: Failure to approve this Resolution will preclude City staff from making the administrative changes necessary to assign updated project account numbers for the specified projects. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Resolution. ATTACHMENTS: None
