__________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
Staff requests that the Board approve funding for the Administration Building A & B Entrance Concrete Replacement and Trench Drain Installation project at the County Administration Complex to address identified infrastructure deficiencies, safety concerns, and drainage performance issues. As part of the County’s ongoing efforts to maintain durable, accessible, and code-compliant public facilities, improvements to the primary building entrances are required to correct deteriorated concrete surfaces, resolve recurring water intrusion, drainage challenges, and tripping/safety hazards.
The project includes removal and replacement of approximately 2,562 square feet of existing exterior concrete with a new 4-inch, full-depth, colored, textured, and wet-stamped decorative concrete slab reinforced with wire mesh in accordance with FDOT Standard Specification Section 522. Additionally, the project includes installation of 35 linear feet of ADA-compliant Zurn P12-PSR stainless steel reverse punch perforated trench drain, reinforced with continuous #4 rebar, to improve surface water capture and direct integration with the existing drainage system in front of the B Building, this extensive trench system will not be needed at Building A, which is why the estimated cost is higher for Building B. Work will be performed at the B Building south entrance and the north and south entrances of Building A.
Construction activities will be phased and coordinated to maintain continuous and safe public access, minimize disruption to daily operations, and ensure uninterrupted services for the customers and employees for both Buildings A & B. All work will be scheduled to preserve building accessibility, safety, and functionality throughout the duration of the project. Work that is categorized as disruptive or intrusive shall be completed outside normal business hours (8:30 AM - 5:00 PM). The estimated cost for this project is $228,850.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
Funding in the amount of $228,850 will be made available via budget amendment from General Fund/Cash Forward Oct 1st and split between the following accounts:
