Body
SUMMARY/KEY POINTS
• Parking canopies were considered for a portion of the EPD fleet vehicle parking area but not pursued in design at the time of construction document completion due to Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) pricing from vendors. Refined vendor cost estimates for the canopies are far lower than ROM estimates, allowing canopies to now be installed over a larger number of fleet vehicles. Additional design services are needed to incorporate the parking canopies into the construction documents.
• Approving the Second Amendment protects fleet vehicles from damage and facilitates the removal of existing irrigated turf areas, which will be replaced with low water plantings.
• Approving the Second Amendment also allows for a small design contingency amount to be available to prevent construction delays for minor design add services during the construction administration phase.
BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
This resolution authorizes additional design services to include parking canopies in the design documents for the protection of Erie Police Department (EPD) Fleet Vehicles, and to replace existing irrigated turf areas with low water plantings. Contingency was not included in the original Professional Services Agreement with D2C, so this resolution authorizes a small design contingency amount (6%) for other potential minor design add services during the construction administration phase of the agreement to prevent construction delays. No additional appropriation of funds is required.
In 2023, a hailstorm damaged a significant percentage of the Town of Erie Fleet vehicles, rendering some EPD fleet vehicles unusable until repaired.
On Sept. 10, 2024, the Town Council approved an Agreement for Professional Services with D2C Architects for Design and Engineering Services for the Erie Police Department Expansion and Remodel Project.
On Aug. 26, 2025, the Town approved a Construction Manager at Risk contract with Fransen Pittman for pre-construction services for the Police Department Expansion and Remodel Project
On Oct. 28, 2025, the Town Council approved the First Amendment to PSA with D2C
