Background/Discussion

The Council Bluffs Carnegie Free Public Library was renovated in 2002 and the Union Pacific Railroad Museum has occupied the building since May of 2003. The boiler and chiller have reached the end of the industry’s standard life expectancy for these types of equipment.

 

Replacement of this equipment will reduce energy costs and will provide a more reliable environment for the Union Pacific’s Historical Collection.

 

The estimated cost of this project is $199,685.  The project was included in the FY20 CIP with funding from the General Fund.

 

The project schedule is as follows: Set Public Hearing January 13, 2020
Hold Public Hearing January 27, 2020
Letting February 12, 2020
Award February 24, 2020
Construction End June 30, 2020

 

Recommendation

I recommend that the City Council adopt the resolution setting the public hearing for the UP Museum Boiler and Chiller Replacement Project for January 27, 2020 at 7:00 p.m.
