Public Hearing
Project No. 4683000002
DATE: April 30, 2025
Project Manager Jim Bousley and Director of Transportation Services Ryan Knuckey
are recommending City Council approve the plans, specifications, form of contract, and
estimated cost of $4,011,300, for the 2025 Repair and Maintenance of the Iowa Street
Parking Garage through the adoption of the attached resolution.
In 2022 the City issued a Request for Proposals for a Parking Ramp Maintenance
Needs Assessment. In November of 2022 the City Council approved awarding of the
contract to Desman, Inc. of Chicago, Illinois.
The Iowa Street Ramp condition assessment report completed by Desman indicated
several areas in the Iowa Street parking ramp that need repairs and maintenance work.
A professional services contract was signed with Desman to provide design and
construction administration services for structural repairs.
The 2025 Repair and Maintenance of the Iowa Street Parking Garage will provide for
slab -on -grade asphalt and concrete repairs, full depth pan joist slab repairs, partial
depth concrete repairs on garage ramps, concrete curb island removal and
replacement, form and pour joist repairs, form and pour beam repairs, column repairs,
waterproofing repair and enhancements, new waterproofing membrane, stair tower
repairs, installation of new supplemental floor drains on roof level, electrical upgrades
including circuit conduit and feeders, lighting fixtures, plumbing upgrades including
waste drains, piping, hose bibs, replacement of elevator pit pump and other
miscellaneous work.
As part of the project, the bid documents will include alternates bid items. Based on the
current estimate there will be sufficient funds to proceed with the Alternates option,
however staff believe it is the City's best interest to receive bids that will be evaluated
for potential consideration.
Based on the bids received, if the City elects not to select any alternatives the base bid
will be used as the basis for the recommended award for this project.

I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.
