� A C3) • r a n d u m Community & Economic Development\ 1200 County -City Building, 227 West Jefferson, South Bend, Indiana 46601 -1830 Phone 574/235 -9371 Fax 574/235 -9021 To: Redevelopment o sion From: Bill Schalliol Subject: Professional Se s - DJ Construction ACSNA Project Site Improvements Date: May 23, 2012 Attached to this memorandum is a professional service contract from DJ Construction for construction services to be performed on the interior and exterior of the ACSNA CBOC Project Site. The improvements are necessary to facilitate the construction and rehabilitation of the 61 year old Gates facility for the CBOC VA project. The improvements listed in this agreement consist of environmental remediation, exterior and interior building improvements and improvements that relate and coordinate with the improvements made to the structure by ACS, the building tenant. As part of the reuse plan for the building, all environmental remediation of the building was done at the beginning of the project to eliminate future conflicts when removing asbestos materials. Although only a portion of the building is in use, the entire structure has been remediated to allow for future occupancy. The exterior building improvements consist of aesthetic and functional project components. To meet current code, all of the windows along the alley or east side of the building needed to be blocked in to meet code for building spacing. All of the remaining windows on the second floor were covered over or modified to present a uniform appearance for the south and west faces of the building. The windows are not being replaced or filled in because of the uncertainty with the reuse of the second floor space in the future. Additionally, masonry work was needed to repair loose section of the facade and parapet of the building. Once the exterior work was done, the entire building was painted a two -tone paint format. The improvements of the interior of the building related to demolition and clean up of spaces that would cease to be easily accessible once the clinic space was established on the first floor. Also, in an effort to better secure the building, a couple of doors require replacement and modification. The total project budget for all exterior work to be performed at the site was $432,000 as approved by the Commission earlier in the year (Res 3005). The total scope of work provided by DJ Construction is $156,700 and an itemized listing is attached to this memo. Staff requests approval of this professional service proposal with DJ Construction.
