City staff presented consultant and construction agreements for the North Fire Station expansion, including a Colliers agreement for construction and closeout phase services and a recommended general contractor selection.

The Colliers agreement for construction administration and closeout was presented at $52,713. The low‑bid general contractor recommendation was Whitehead Construction with a bid of $515,321. City staff said the bids and submitted documents were evaluated and Whitehead received the highest ranking among bidders.

A commissioner noted the original estimated construction cost had been about $1.2 million and observed that the Whitehead bid was substantially lower. Staff did not record a formal contract award vote on the public record at this meeting; the item was presented with supporting documents, and Colliers representatives were present for questions.

Ending: Staff indicated the agreements would move forward to the appropriate procurement and contracting steps; no contract execution was recorded in the meeting transcript that would indicate a final funded award during this session.
