The new fire station will be a one-story construction with approximately 12,000 SF of floor space and identified as Public Service Center #12 with building-mounted signage conforming to the City of Roanoke Zoning Ordinance. The floor plan will be segregated into different uses, including a 3-bay apparatus area, administration/operations, kitchen, dining, fitness, housing, locker room, showers/laundry area, etc. The building must accommodate current and projected apparatus and staff requirements. The apparatus bays accommodate multiple vehicles, including the largest vehicle in the fleet, Tower 9. A Preliminary Space Program is provided as Exhibit G and shall be confirmed with the County by the Proposer before producing a geometric configuration of the space layout.
The 2.2469-acre site offers the ability for the improvements shown in the Development Plan provided as Exhibit A and the proposed building elevation provided as Exhibit B, which improvements shall be constructed in substantial conformance, subject to any modification required during the comprehensive development plan review process. The site is located on the public right of way of Mexico Way, shown as Exhibit C, and has an access point to Orange Avenue with an existing traffic signal. Site access utilizes expansive concrete entrances, with on-site parking designed to accommodate a few guests/visitors, and is located to the side of the building to allow the building to be closer to the street. The remaining proposed parking spaces are located behind the building to accommodate the expected number of employees during the transitional time when staff from two overlapping shifts may be on-site.
The method of contractor selection has not been determined at this time.
