Construction of a new fire station. TIMELINE: An RFP for a feasibility study has been awarded to Colbourne & Kembel Architects. The Municipality of Edwardsburgh Cardinal volunteer fire department is dedicated to public education and fire prevention, ensuring the safety of human life and property conservation through fire suppression and rescue operations. Our full-service volunteer fire department operates out of 2 fire stations, each containing a pumper, tanker, rescue and utility vehicle. A reserve pumper tanker is utilized as needed to maintain response capacity. The Township is developing a new facility to replace the existing fire station located at 4035 Dishaw Street in Cardinal. The new fire station is to be located just south of the existing facility on a vacant property previously containing an arena. Conduct a review of the previously completed Fire Station 2 Building Audit & Needs Study, as part of their background for the project planning. Complete geotechnical study for the selected site. Using industry standards, project experience, and input from the steering committee, confirm space programming for the building including basic information such as sizes, space requirements, workflows, activities, and special uses. Facilitate meetings with the steering committee as needed to confirm basic components and planning of the building program, including building systems, equipment, materials, and code compliance to support service needs. Make recommendations regarding sustainable options such as a net-zero energy ready building design. Create and provide schematic site plan, elevations, renderings, cost estimates, and project schedules as necessary to create the schematic project design. The schematic design should include preliminary scope information on structural systems, interior finishes, MEP systems, and any other relevant building components or systems related to the scopes of work listed above.. Make recommendations regarding alternative materials, or design features that offer potential cost savings, while meeting desired quality standards. Present the Fire Station 2 Feasibility Report to municipal council. Updates will be made if owner proceeds to design.
