Report CS 09-18 May 14, 2018 Subject: Tender for Conservation Barn Reconstruction at the Page 2 Pickering Museum Village Executive Summary: The City intends to partially demolish and reconstruct the existing Steam Barn on the lower site of Pickering Museum Village in order to upgrade and repurpose it as the site's new Conservation Building. The existing building consists of an unheated and uninsulated metal roof and cladding on wood post and timber construction. The roof and cladding are at the end of their serviceable life. The project includes provision of a water and septic system to meet health and safety requirements, insulation and provision of heating and cooling systems to maintain a tempered internal environment, the addition of a sprinkler system to better protect irreplaceable historical artefacts, dedicated large artefact conservation lab and storage, and structural reinforcement of the roof to accommodate future solar panel installation. On February 8, 2018, Request for Prequalification RFPQ-5-2018 was publically released for the Prequalification of General Contractors for the Conservation Barn Reconstruction at the Pickering Museum Village. A total of twelve proposals were received by the deadline of Thursday, March 1, 2018. Based on the results of the evaluation rated criteria, five General Contractors were successfully prequalified by the City to submit bids for consideration. Tender No. T-14-2018 was released to the prequalified General Contractors and was also made available for information to the public on the City's website on March 23, 2018. A mandatory site visit was held on April 4, 2018. The tender closed on May 1, 2018. Four companies submitted bids for this project. The low bid submitted by J.J. McGuire General Contractors Inc. in the amount of $1,553,000.38 (HST included) is recommended for approval. The total gross project cost is estimated to be $1,863,751.00 (HST included) and the total net project cost is estimated at $1,678,366.00 (net of HST rebate). In July 2017, the City was awarded $450,000.00 towards this reconstruction project from the federal government through the CCSF. Commencing with this project as soon as possible will help maintain the project schedule of June to November 2018 and could even accelerate building occupancy. Subject to award, the contractor can immediately order equipment and materials for fabrication in advance of other key project milestones (including construction of a shed structure and the relocation of existing building contents to that shed). Construction can then proceed at a faster pace by avoiding the risks of late or long delivery times. Faster construction in the early parts of the work will also facilitate early enclosure of the building, reducing any risks associated with inclement weather in the fall. Financial Implications: 1.

By adopting this strategy, the City will be in an enhanced financial position to reach the 2019 budget levy target of 2.25% as established by Council. Investigations during the design process confirmed poor soil conditions beneath the existing building and rot in several of the existing structural members intended to be re -used. Allowances have been included in the tender price for the reinforcement and replacement of affected structures, but could not be accounted for at the time of submission of the construction budget. A separate allowance has been included for the provision of a fire suppression system, including sprinkler distribution, water storage tanks, pumps, backup power system and related ancillary works. The system is not required by the Ontario Building Code, and was therefore not included in the original construction budget, but it is strongly recommended that it be included in the scope of work. Many artefacts to be stored in this building are unique and irreplaceable parts of the City's heritage, and valuable public assets in need of added protection. The absence of municipal water service and hydrants in the vicinity of the museum site increases the cost to provide this protection. In accordance with Section 1.1.04 of the City's Financial Control Policy, over expenditure exceeding 10% of the approved capital expenditures shall require the approval of the Treasurer, the Chief Administrative Officer, and Council. Therefore, Council approval is being sought at this Report CS 09-18 May 14, 2018 Subject: Tender for Conservation Barn Reconstruction at the Pickering Museum Village Page 4 time for the additional funds required. The Treasurer has concurred that the over expenditures will be funded by a transfer from the Rate Stabilization Reserve. Contingency funds of approximately 10% of the construction cost has been included to address any additional soils or structural costs and to address unforeseen costs common with renovation projects on older buildings. If the contingency is not required, the funds will be returned to the Rate Stabilization Reserve. Discussion: The existing Steam Barn at Pickering Museum Village was constructed in the late 1970s, shortly after the Museum relocated to its current site from its previous location in Brougham. Additions were added for workshop spaces on the south side of the main structure in 2007 and 2008. The original building is approximately 100 feet long by 60 feet wide and of wood post and timber column construction with prefinished sheet metal cladding. Wood trusses support a sheet metal roof. The floor is a concrete slab on grade. The interior is uninsulated and unheated. Minimal lighting is provided by translucent fiberglass panels on the north face and high bay industrial fixtures. The building is currently monitored by a security alarm, but has no water supply or septic system. The building currently houses most of the museum's collection of heritage vehicles and agricultural equipment, including tractors, steam -powered engines and other machinery. Indoor storage protects these artefacts from direct exposure to the elements, but they remain vulnerable to large fluctuations in temperature and humidity, pests, and other factors that negatively impact efforts to conserve them. Limited available storage space, compared to the size of the existing collection and other materials currently stored across the Museum, has been a persistent and growing issue. Museum staff have been working diligently to update their collection inventory and deaccession redundant items, or those without provenance to the City's history. Reconstruction of the Conservation Barn will upgrade the existing facility while retaining as much of the existing structure as possible, including both existing workshop additions. Construction will commence in July 2018 and is scheduled for completion by November 2018. The following tasks and requirements have been included in the scope of work: • Repurposing existing wall and roof cladding to serve as an interior liner panels. Insulation and new metal cladding will be added to the building exterior to meet energy conservation requirements; • Structural reinforcement of the overall building to meet current codes and sufficient for the future installation of solar panels on the roof's expansive southern exposure; • Provision of a single office, large artefact conservation workspace and barrier -free washroom; Report CS 09-18 May 14, 2018 Subject: Tender for Conservation Barn Reconstruction at the Page 5 Pickering Museum Village • Relocation of the main entrance to the east face of the building to eliminate ice and snow fall hazard over the existing entrance on the south side; • Provision of permanent potable water and septic systems; • Provision of a HVAC system capable of maintaining museum -grade class B (tempered) air quality; • Provision of a dedicated fume hood for artefact conservation; • Upgrades to existing electrical service; • Upgrades to existing lighting systems to the City's current LED standard; • Upgrades to existing life safety systems, including fire suppression; • Added protection to the artefact collection against pests and vermin; • Replacement of the existing racking storage system; and • Enhanced security systems, including the provision of cameras.
