Site work and new construction of a municipal facility in Camas, Washington. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a 20,944-square-foot, two-story above grade municipal facility; and for site work for a municipal facility.

The City of Camas is seeking qualifications from professional Architectural and Engineering (A&E) firms for pre-design services and facility planning services to evaluate space utilization, building deficiencies, funding strategies, and long-term operational needs within Camas City Hall (phase 1). Upon completion of pre-design work the City reserves the right to amend scope of work to include design engineering and construction management for construction of selected improvements (phase 2). Firms shall be listed on City of Camas Consultant MRSC Roster prior to due date. Upon completion of pre-design work the City reserves the right to amend scope of work to include design engineering and construction management for construction of selected improvements (phase 2). The new replacement Fire Station No. 41 is currently under design and construction, which is anticipated to be complete in August 2027. The Camas Washougal Fire Department has retained Aetta Architecture as architect of record for their project. Upon completion of construction the Camas Washougal Fire Department will vacate their existing facility on the east wing of Camas City Hall. This planning effort is intended to inform decisions regarding potential City Hall improvements, coordination with planned Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) infrastructure upgrades, reuse of the existing Fire Station No. 41 upon its future vacancy, and accommodation of Court Services currently operating in leased facilities with a lease term ending December 31, 2027. In addition, the planning effort will consider long-term City Hall solutions ranging from renovation of the existing facility to full demolition and reconstruction, as well as conceptual evaluation of relocating City Hall to an alternate site and the feasibility of developer-driven or public-private partnership delivery models (e.g., build-to-suit, lease-toown, or mixed-use civic facilities). Evaluation of alternate sites may include publicly-owned or partner-owned properties, such as the Camas School District's UL property, or other locations identified during the planning process. This work will be conceptual in nature and will focus on comparative feasibility, order-of-magnitude costs, service delivery impacts, operational advantages, funding considerat Site Background City Hall Camas City Hall is located at 616 NE 4th Avenue, Camas, Washington, and serves as the City's primary administrative and public-facing facility. Originally constructed in 1967, the building is a two-story concrete structure with a basement and has a gross area of approximately 20,944 square feet. City Hall houses administrative offices, public service counters, and other municipal functions, and shares building infrastructure with the adjacent Fire Station No. 41 The City Hall facility has undergone limited modernization since its original construction. A Facility Condition Assessment completed in 2022 identified multiple building systems that are at or beyond their useful life, including mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. Key deficiencies include aging HVAC equipment, obsolete electrical distribution and lighting systems, deteriorated plumbing infrastructure, and limited fire protection coverage in City Hall office areas. While routine maintenance and targeted improvements have occurred, the assessment indicates a growing backlog of deferred maintenance and system replacement needs Fire Station 41 Camas Washougal Downtown Fire Station No. 41 is located at 616 NE 4th Avenue and was constructed in 1967. The existing downtown Fire Station 41 is a shared facility located within Camas City Hall. The Fire station is separated from City Hall by an interior building wall. The existing facility was constructed in 1967 and consist of a two-story concrete structure including a basement. The facility gross area is 28,000 SF (City Hall and Fire station) with the existing Fire station totaling 7,056 SF (4,320SF apparatus bay and 2,736 SF second floor living quarters). The Fire station and City Hall share infrastructure for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems. The Fire Station living quarters were remodeled in 2008. The Fire station apparatus bay and City Hall have had limited updating since 1967 construction. Routine building maintenance, equipment replacements, and repairs have occurred. The existing Fire station to be repurposed does not meet seismic code, lacks full ADA compliance, and the facility does not have a fire suppression system meeting current code. No hazardous material surveys have been completed on the facilities. In 2024 The Community approved a bond measure to replace the existing Fire station with a new facility to be constructed at an offsite location. Upon future vacating of the existing Fire station, the City will take ownership providing opportunity to remodel and repurpose Fire Station into usable office space for growing City Services.
