The City is seeking a Consultant who will analyze the existing conditions and future requirements for a modern fire station with current best practices. The City would expect a conceptual design and a preliminary cost estimate. The following items are points of emphasis for the design of the fire station: 2.1 A station that embraces mental/physical wellness and fitness initiatives, including but not limited to reducing preventable injuries through facility design, cancer prevention (isolation and mitigation of contaminants), workout and fitness space, ambient conditions, and individual sleep and study spaces. 2.2 A station that maximizes efficiency for “turn-out” times by reducing impediments between call notification and apparatus “en-route” status and reduces travel distances between frequently occupied areas of the station and the apparatus locations.
