Staff Report Summary
On October 25th staff opened bids for the 2018 Mini Storage Facility. The City received three (2)
bids for the work. The low bid was $756,704.32 and the Engineer’s Estimate was $505,889.15.
Background
The City has sold the property on Penn Street. Several City departments have been using the
existing buildings to store various items. It is necessary to construct storage facilities to house
these items in the long term. This project would build mini storage type facilities to
accommodate this along with fencing and a police impound and car search area.
The bids received were well above what research shows to be the current going rate for these
types of facilities.
Fiscal and Policy Implications
The project would require budgeted funds to be spent well above the existing budget.
