BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The FY 2022 Capital Improvement Plan includes the Emergency Operations Complex (EOC) project as a funded project for design and construction with $11.9 million in ARPA funding. On May 3, 2022, the City Council approved a motion of direction moving the FY 2021 excess balance from the General fund to the Governmental CIP fund allowing construction of a new Fire Station #4 (the city's ninth fire station). On June 14, 2022, the City Council approved the land purchase from the Killeen Independent School District to accommodate both the EOC project and Fire Station #4.
The project includes the design and construction support of a multi-use facility that includes combined fire and paramedic response operations, fire training, fire support services, Emergency Operations Center offices, training classrooms, supply rooms, and a maintenance building.
Martinez Architects provided professional services for design and bid support. Staff then solicited bids for construction of the facility. All received bids were opened on January 17, 2024, and were read aloud through zoom online video conferencing and are noted below.
