Elk River Fire Department <br />Elk River, MN <br />Fire Station Feasibility and Facilities Study <br /> <br /> <br />Five Bugles Design <br />A Division of Wendel Companies <br />2.3 Northwest Station (Station No. 1 Replacement) <br />Station No. 1 has reached the end of its useful life. The community is not , however, at a point where <br />replacement of this station is warranted. The report recommends that only minor upkeep and <br />maintenance be performed on this facility with a goal of replacing it in the next 10 years. Th e following <br />are recommended space needs for this facility as a fire station and training facility for the Elk River Fire <br />Department only. See Section No. 4 of the report of discussions of a potential Elk River Regional <br />Training Center. <br /> <br />A few items of note regarding these spaces: <br />1. As noted, the department has few opportunities for training in other facilities. This facility <br />therefore has a larger training element. <br />2. Training spaces indicated in this facility are those spaces required specifically by the fire <br />department. Section No. 4 of the report details other training opportunities and needs from other <br />City of Elk River Departments. <br />Probable Cost for these Stations are developed using square foot costs. Low and high ranges are <br />established due to the early nature of the project. The range is established using cos ts from Engineering <br />New Record (a national construction cost source) and Five Bugles Designs historical cost data base. It <br />should be assumed that the final construction cost will fall between the low and high range. <br /> <br /> Low Range High Range <br />Cost of Construction $5,808,379 $6,426,788 <br />Other Costs (FF&E, Technology, <br />Contingencies, Fees and Legal) <br />$1,439,430 $2,029,450 <br /> <br />Total $7,247,809 $8,456,238 <br /> <br />Note: This station is not recommended for a number of years. Costs should be adjusted to account for <br />inflation to the midpoint of expected construction once that date had been determined. <br />SPACE 20 YEAR NEED <br />Apparatus Bays 7,655 SF <br />Apparatus Support 4,452 SF <br />Training 5,045 SF <br />Administration/Office 3,810 SF <br />Living Quarters 1,295 SF <br />Tempered Storage Spaces 1,700 SF <br />Mechanical and Electrical Spaces 3,593 SF <br />Total 27,550 SF <br />9
