Body
BACKGROUND
The 2721 Municipal Street facility is the primary office location for the Department of Code Compliance. The facility has not been significantly updated since its construction over forty years ago and requires major renovation. Additionally, the facility is not in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, suffers water intrusion, and its heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems require updates to comply with new standards established during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In November of 2021, the Building Services Department recommended the facility be vacated due to current environmental conditions requiring abatement of mold and asbestos, and to prepare for the planned renovation project. Code Compliance staff based out of 2721 Municipal Street have been required to work remotely and/or are being housed in various City facilities until the renovations are completed, which is expected in September 2022.
Job Order Contracting (JOC), established by Texas Local Government Code, Section 271.120, is an alternative contracting method that provides an efficient means to address construction, repair, rehabilitation, and alterations at City-owned buildings. In many cases, utilization of a JOC provides a more expedient process to address critical than other types of construction delivery methods. Approval from the governing body is required for each job or purchase order that exceeds $500,000.00.
This action will authorize a work order under the existing Job Order Contract previously approved on December 8, 2021, by Resolution No. 21-1934 for an amount exceeding $500,000.00 with Nouveau Technology Services for critical renovations and reconstruction to the facility located at 2721 Municipal Street, and ratify payment for demolition of electrical, plumbing, and framing required as a result of mold remediation and asbestos abatement.
