Authorize the City Manager to Execute a Contract for the Design, Procurement, and Installation of a Prefabricated Storage Building at Daffin Park with Gordian, Inc., in an Amount not to Exceed $330,191.

This Project will provide a permanent, secure storage facility at Daffin Park to replace storage capacity lost as a result of the recent lease amendment with the Savannah Bananas at Grayson Stadium. The scope of work includes the design, fabrication, and construction of a pre-engineered metal building measuring 40’ x 96’ x 12’, including all associated structural, concrete, electrical, and site preparation work. The facility will support ongoing park maintenance, athletic programming, and special events. The Recreation and Leisure Services Department has coordinated with the Park and Tree Division and both divisions will utilize the building to improve operational efficiency, consolidate equipment storage, and support daily maintenance activities at Daffin Park. The proposed location for the building is along the rear of Morris Field. This site was selected to minimize visibility from adjacent residential areas and to avoid impacts to existing parking spaces or recreational green space, while maintaining appropriate operational access for staff.

Pursuant to Section 2-4152 of the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, the City may procure goods and services through a cooperative purchasing agreement. This procurement will utilize the Sourcewell cooperative contract with Gordian, Inc. (Contract No. GA-ST03-040820-LRI).
