● Building Size: The proposed Street Maintenance Building is anticipated to be approximately 7,000 square feet. The maximum footprint of the building can be no larger than 170’ x 170’. This area should encompass all specified functional zones. ● Building Type: The preferred building type is a pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) system, designed for durability, cost-efficiency, and rapid construction. The design should incorporate features typical of a 'Morton Style' building, emphasizing clear-span capabilities and robust construction, and featuring 8 distinct bays. ○ Bay Design: ■ At a minimum, four (4) of the bays shall be drive through, large enough to accommodate equipment 12’ wide and up to 14’ tall. ● Three (3) of these drive through bays shall be served with heating and ventilation capacity. ● One (1) of these drive through bays is intended for storage and does not need heating or ventilation. ■ Two (2) of the bays must accommodate only pickup truck size vehicles/equipment. ● Of these 2 bays, one shall have reinforced concrete for the future addition of an automotive lift. ■ All bays will need to accommodate 14’ wide, or larger overhead doors. ● Functional Areas - Detailed Breakdown: ○ Storage Areas: Dedicated, high-clearance bays for the secure and organized storage of street maintenance equipment (e.g., street sweepers, dump trucks, snowplows, excavators, loaders, salt spreaders), bulk materials (e.g., salt, asphalt patching materials, gravel), and general supplies. Consideration for climate control in specific storage zones may be required for sensitive materials. ○ Workshop/Maintenance Area: A fully equipped, expansive workshop area with minimum 16-foot clear ceiling heights to accommodate large vehicle lifts and overhead cranes. This area shall include designated bays for routine maintenance, heavy repairs, welding, tire service, and equipment fabrication. Integration of specialized plumbing (e.g., oil/water separators, wash bays with trench drains), electrical (e.g., 3-phase power outlets, abundant 110V/220V outlets), and compressed air systems is essential. ○ Office Space: A minimum of 120 square feet of finished administrative office space to include: ■ Manager's office. ○ Restrooms and Conference Room: Restroom, fully accessible under ADA guidelines. A conference room with an area dedicated to a kitchenette (sink, refrigerator, microwave) and sufficient seating capacity for 12 maintenance personnel. ○ Utilities: Comprehensive utility infrastructure including: ■ Electrical: Service entrance, distribution panels, branch circuitry, high-efficiency LED lighting throughout, emergency lighting, and exterior lighting for security.
