Title
SportsPlex Masonry Sealing
History
Guided by the 2022 "Facilities Condition Assessment", the Public Works Department recently completed several building improvement projects at SportsPlex. For example, between 2022 and 2024, roofs and gutters were replaced, the walking track flooring and interior lighting replaced, locker rooms upgraded, and extensive HVAC and control joint caulking projects completed. The next step in facility improvements at SportsPlex is to seal the CMU (concrete masonry unit) block which makes up the building’s exterior. Masonry sealing aims to prevent water from penetrating exterior masonry. By preventing water absorption, structural, moisture and aesthetic issues can be better controlled.
Public Works requested a proposal from Midwest Mechanical Group, Inc. (“Midwest Mechanical”), who participate in the Omnia Partners cooperative program (Contract #02-91), to seal fifteen thousand (15,000) square feet of exterior masonry, which is approximately 40% of the building’s total of thirty-five thousand (35,000) square feet of exterior masonry. Additional funding will be requested in subsequent years to continue sealing the remaining areas of the building.
A summary of the proposal submitted by Midwest Mechanical, which is based on Omnia Partners Contract #02-91, is provided below:
SportsPlex Masonry Sealing
Total: $74,850.00
Based on price and company qualifications, staff recommends approving the proposal from Midwest Mechanical Group, Inc. for $74,580.00. A contingency is not requested for this project.
