I have provided updates on changes made and carryover projects and will ask for approvals at the combined FDA Building & Finance Committee meeting scheduled for Wednesday, May 22, 2024. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions. 2025 Capital Budget: ‘The 2025 capital budget request focuses mainly on ongoing debt payments, systems software & equipment upgrades due to end of life periods, purchases directed by City of Fargo IS, larger event & maintenance equipment. Below is an explanation of the requested 2025 Capital Budget projects along with some other overview points concerning the 2024 & carryover Capital Budget: « ED2500 — Capital Payment #8 on Video Board Project ($925,256): This is the eighth of ten payments on the bonding for the video board/broadcast equipment/technology project that was completed in 2016. * FD2501 — Architectural Services ($100,000): As we continue with the Master Planning for FARGODOME, these funds will be used to pay for the necessary architecture/engineering and other services needed to continue to refine the plans. * FD2502 - Chiller Overhaul / Eddy Current Testing ($40,000): This line item is used for the annual overhaul to one of the three building chillers, and/or the testing of all three units. « FD2503 — Cooling Tower Gearbox Replacement ($50,000): This will replace two (2) of the remaining four (4) gearboxes on the cooling tower that have not been replaced already. If you recall, one was replaced in the winter of 2022 and another one is currently being replaced. There are a total of six (6). The two that will be replaced via this line item are numbers #5 & #6. #5 is making some suspicious noises leading to thoughts it may be starting to fail. Gearboxes #1 — 5 work together to serve the two large chillers. If one goes down, there are the other four to work in place. Gearbox #6 is the only one to serve the small chiller. If that goes down, there is nothing serving as a backup. Therefore the decision to pre-emptively replace this one. FD2504 ~ Plumbing Modifications for loading dock washing machine area ($10,000): This will install direct water lines from the hot water and cold water supply lines for the four (4) industrial washing machines in the loading dock. This removes the hot water feed from the hot water heater in that location and will significantly reduce the wear and tear on that unit. Along with the piping, the six (6) shut-off valves in this area with more reliable ball valves and hose connections. ED 2505 — Wireless Internet Access Points — Licensing Extension ($10,000): Extends the licensing for all of the access points used for wireless internet activity for one (1) year. Only doing a one (1) year extension at this time until additional information is known about expansion plan and projects. ‘The access points are in good working order, but the five (5) year license has expired. This will be a much large replacement in the coming years. FD2506 — Network Switches ($50,000): This replaces nineteen (19) 24-port computer switches for the sound, ticketing & security camera systems that the COF IS department has said have reached end of life and are in need of replacement. FD2507 — Show Staging Equipment ($55,000): Will purchase more StageRight decking to replace destroyed or retired stage decks, along with extra staging pallets for better utilization of storage capacity. ‘Typically an annual to every other year purchase, however stage decks have not been purchased for about three years due to other needs. FD2508 — Expo Tables ($26,500): Will replenish the supply of ‘banquet and round tables used for events in the meeting rooms and arena. Ithas been a few years since these tables have been purchased and many have been broken or destroyed. FD2509 ~ Meeting Room Chairs ($90,000): This amount will be combined with previously approved project FD2308 ($84,000) to enhance the budget so a better replacement chair can be purchased. Total budget for this will be $174,000 to replace approximately 1,100 meeting room chairs. FD2510 — Portable Radio Equipment ($10,000): Will replace radios that have become inoperable. Current radio model is no longer manufactured. Need to start switching certain departments to new model of radio so existing department radios can be used in other departments. Starting with smaller departments and working way to larger departments. FD2511 — Equipment — Food Service ($40,000): Used to purchase food and beverage equipment needs/upgrades throughout the year. Electrical, Mechanical, Structural, Misc Projects ($80,000): This project is per the policy for the Long Term Capital Plan of having a al certain dollar amount budgeted to the Capital Budget, but these dollars remain un-allotted to a specific item. To use these dollars, building management will present the proposed project to the FDA Building Committee prior to dollars being spent. I would request a motion to approve the 2025 Capital Budget as presented. 2024 Capital Budget (Including Prior Year’s Carryover): We have also reviewed the 2024 Capital Budget and prior year's carryover. In an effort to clean up some of the outstanding and/or completed projects, while also adjusting to shifts in priorities and building needs, I would request the following re-allocation motion: To re-allocate the balances of the following projects: FD2405 — Lift Station Pump/Motor/Controls $143,000 FD2221 — Lift Station Pump/Motor/Controls_ § 32,000 FD2qu1 ~ Arena Audio Mixing Board $ 35,155 FD2205 - Vib/Timing/Alignment on AHU —_$ 14,760 $224,915 To add to the budgets of, or create, the following projects: ¥FD2418 — Air Handler Unit Repair ($16,320): Repairs ripped canvas connectors on three (3) AHUs and replaces the spring isolation feet on two (2) AHUs. FD2419 — Network Switches for Building Automation System — ($10,500): This will place a network switch in each of the four (4) penthouse locations for use with the Building Automation System (HVAC). Currently, fiber to copper transceivers are used to communicate with the system, however these are becoming unreliable. This will increase the reliability of the communication and allow for further expansion when needed. FD2420 — Sound System & Network Patching Repair ($25,500): ‘Will replace all the network jacks in the arena floor to an upgraded style connection (IP67 rated) to help keep water/dirt and other debris out and to allow for easier repair to switch out parts. Also replaces all the audio XLR & fiber lines, in the arena wall boxes for the sound system patching panels and replaces the existing boxes with units with doors on them for better protection. These were originally done with the sound system upgrade in 2009. FD2421 — Sewage Ejection Pit Rehab - ($40,000): Replaces the discharge pipes w/ schedule 8opve, stainless steel pump guide pipes, stainless steel guide pipe/transducer brackets, and vactor truck coupling hose in each of the field level ejection pump pits. These are in need of a significant overhaul in the future once more is known regarding any field level expansion, however the above will correct issues being experienced at this time. FD2422 — UTV Side by Side ~ ($30,000): The purchase ofa UIV side by side, with a cab, to be utilized outdoors by parking, grounds & custodial staff for different functions & events. Will reduce usage/wear & tear on golf carts, and may eliminate the need for one. Many events require outdoor vehicle usage by all three departments, but not worthy of purchasing a third pickup. 2a. FD2215 — Football Turf Replacement — Mechanical Items — ($65,000): To further address issues being experienced with football turf conversions, AstroTurf is proposing modifications to how the air is distributed out of the three (3) air ducts in the floor. Along with this, as the mechanical system for the field conversion is unique to FARGODOME and few other facilities worldwide, it has been recommended by the mechanical contractor to have an on-site inventory of significant system components. Given these components are not readily available for replacement, building management agrees with this recommendation. The additional funds will be combined with the remaining balance in FD2215 ($64,670) to fully fund the air duct modifications and spare part inventory ($56,733 & $72,927 respectively). ¥FD1614 — Video Boards — ($37,595): This will add to the remaining balance of $37,525 in this account to create a budget of $75,120 for the purchase of one (1) video wall by Daktronics to replace one (1) existing video wall currently in place. As discussed at past meetings, the television units being used to form the eight (8) video walls — installed in 2016 ~ are no longer manufactured. There are nine (9) television units in each video wall. There currently are a few television units in need of replacement. Because these units are no longer manufactured, building management's solution is to replace one (1) full wall with ‘a Daktronics singular unit. This will free up seven (7) television units (nine less the two already needed) for replacements needed in the future. I would offer the following comments on some of the remaining carryover items (2023 and earlier) still included in the Capital Budget: « FD2303 ~ Sonic Wall Replacement ($13,500): Researching needs and targeting for any additional needs related to computers / network not already identified. + FD2308 — Meeting Room Chair Replacement ($84,000): Discussed above and will be used in conjunction with the added dollars from FD2509 for the purchase. « FD2309 — Moveable Seating (Dant) Bridge Replacement: Continue to research replacement options. Working with both Dant Clayton (original manufacturer), StageRight and local steel manufacturer for more “user friendly” options. + ED2312 — Mitel UC Server 30 Replacement: COF IS dept is leading this, Waiting on further direction, + FD2208 - Computers / Networks: Combined with FD2303 and used for any other computer/network needs not specifically budgeted for in other projects. Managed mostly by City of Fargo IS department. * FD1901/FD1801 Parking Lot/Misc Concrete Repair/Parking Lot Crack Sealing/Striping: Project budgets combined, holding for identified/affordable needs. Will restripe areas again this summer. {As always, I am available for any questions you may have and will review all the presented information at the combined FDA Building & Finance Committee meeting scheduled for Wednesday, May 22, 2024 at 12:00pm. 4 Project # 02500 02501 Fo2502 FO2503 FD2504 FD2505 FD2506 02507 FO2509 FO2510 Fo2511 2025 Capital Budget Project Description Capital Payment #8 on Video Board Upgrade Bonds ‘Architectural Services Mechanical: Chiller OverhauVEddy Current Testing Cooling Tower Gearboxes - replace 2 of remaining 4 needed Loading Dock re-piping - building washingldrying area Equipment - Admin: Wireless Interet Access Ponts - Licensing Extension Network Switches - 19 ola Building Imp. - Event & Staging: ‘Show Staging Equipment po Tables - Banquet & Rounds Meeting Room Chairs Portable Radio Communication Equipment Food & Beverage Equipment Budgeted/Unallocated Total: Total Requested Amount 8 8 925,258 100,000 10,000 50,000 86,000 26,500 0,000 10,000 40,000 0,000 $1,486,756 FARGODOME 2028 CAPITAL BUDGET FRORET BUOGET aaa Tee NUUBER sts oF PROJECTS wae Romncen to oe Fant [Renal Saas wanpoo [3500] sae. —Ton ooo o 52409 [chile Oversea: Coren Taina 000 a aa00 | ao.o00 o £2409 [chal Laces Pina &Fraton Modealans- COF¥RFOD@204 —26 750_—| 30675 a 351 | 38 ming Shut Valve and Drain Nodcaioos ‘go0—| 1190] 71g —| 12000 ° 2408 [Lh Slaton PumglletCanros 743 000 @ axon | 743 00 o £52406 Buiing Automation - PACOTOT2TSEN 52000 —| “S200 0 52000 o 02407 —[Skidetear Snow Pusher ‘000 | 908 a 906 —[ Toor [Eb aKoe [a Snon Pusher zoa00 | “i740 a 7450 | 2551 {EO2409 Lawn “radi -RFPZIOTS saan0—| asa a waa | 7588 [Eb2e0 Smal Ring Seuboer Ze 00 —| 23608 a 50s [7396 rena Aid Ming a Se 00 | 20805 [35 155 | —ss.00 7 0412 irona Wiles Wi Syste 75003 —| sna a 75000 ‘EOE ‘Sysiam Sa 7 ows |—ao.000 o en- Fad SANE a0 a. 40,000 —[ 40.00, o ‘E0241 [Goaing Tower Gaar Boe 8 950_—| 75980 2 “3.950 o [D216 Rolie Load Doc Upper Orin Tench 3e6H4 a sesad | aaa o (Ceb2499 laugetet atest Tasos a 25,050 —| 25050 ° [Pep230s “Js. - Sone Wat [a0 7 a [702309 Meeting Room Chai Redacerent ‘ap o oon — | —aa.oo0 7 [702209 Moveable Seating (Dan Bridue Redlacement en 00 ° 0.000 | —s0.00 ° FD2314 Buling Adonation Uoarade- PSCOTOI2 HN Err TE a ‘igo [702312 itl UC Sevee 30 Resear 3250, o 32s0__[ 3.250, ° 02314 Palo Alo Frowal Repcement 2000 | 10950 ° 70930_| 1076 [TeD2315 48 Compuinr SwictvAccess Poa 6300) o esa) | 16.300 0 [T2203 vai instalation on Suki Water oon igo | shore a 07a | aot [ep2205 "|Vibration/Timing/Alignmant Analysis on AHL) Pumes & Mtors 14760 0 14,760 44,760 9 £02208 [Computers Network 6.000 o ss0m0—| 16.000 ° [702216 [Tur Replacement ‘sss |_sisat_| esara | ssssat o |" ep2006 [sulting Sec Camera Addtonstegrades 5.788 o 5764 | 574 0 ["epzota "[sute Catering Kitchen 2052 ° zog2 | 12092 ° [-eDt904 [pang ot Crakssoing/iec Conese Repair 7.500, o 7500 | 7500 ° [ep1aot [panna ot Crackanatng/viee Concrete Repae 20.000 o 20000 | 2n000 ° Cept6i« Ivse0 Boas 37525 ° srs | 7.525 @ as
