Excerpt:
“City Commissioners unanimously approved a $2.73 million contract to James Talcott Construction for fire station improvements during their April 18 meeting.
The project is being funded with American Rescue Plan Act, federal COVID-19 relief funds.
The fire station infrastructure project includes upgrades to the HVAC and electrical systems and renovations to the dorm areas in all four of the city’s existing fire stations.
The project went out for bid in February and the city received three bids ranging from $2,731,200 to $3,754,000 with Talcott submitting the lowest bid.
The city hired Cushing Terrell with a $248,000 design contract for the project in December 2022 and staff from both entities reviewed the proposals, according to the city.
The fire station infrastructure project was identified as a top priority project for the city’s ARPA funds during an April 2022 meeting. The project budget was set at $2.8 million in December 2022.”
