HomeMy WebLinkAbout5B7 RDC Agenda Memo - Drewry's Phase II
Redevelopment Commission Agenda Item
DATE: July 30, 2024
FROM: Zach Hurst, PE
SUBJECT: Budget Request – Drewry’s Brewery Cleanup
Funding Source* (circle one) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington; RDC General
*Funds are subject to the City Controller's determination of availability; if funds are unavailable, as solely determined by the City Controller,
then the authorization of the expenditure of such funds shall be void and of no effect.
Purpose of Request:
This budget request is for $1,000,000 to pay for demolition costs for the next phase (Phase II) of
the Drewry’s Brewery Cleanup, covering the Bottling House, the loading dock, and the siloes.
Phase I, funded with ARP funding, demolished several outbuildings and removed the remaining
construction debris leftover from previous demolitions prior to City acquisition of the property.
On July 23, 2024, the Board of Public Works (BPW) opened and read aloud bids for Phase II of
the Drewry’s Brewery cleanup. Seven (7) bids were received, with the lowest responsive bid from
Green Demolition at a price of $963,600. With this budget request, a bid award can be made at
the August 13th BPW meeting, with work beginning shortly after Labor Day.
This allocation would be combined with $250,000 in ARP funding for a total demolition budget of
$1,250,000, which would cover any unforeseen conditions that arise during the demolition of
the Bottling House and loading dock, which totals over 100,000 square feet in area.
Any funds left over from Phase II would be rolled over for use on Phase III, which intends to
remove all remaining slabs and foundations, and prepare a shovel-ready site for redevelopment.
