THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Fort Madison is constructing a new fire station under Public Improvement Project 2025-02, with SG Construction as the general contractor. On July 21, 2026 the council approved Change Order #1, adjusting scope items (pipe material, added rock and bollards, plumbing changes, added control points) and increasing the contract to $5,793,980.92. The main award is decided, but there is ongoing construction and contingency use, which may create needs for specialty subs, equipment, furnishings, technology, and future maintenance once the station opens.

Background

Change Order #1 includes switching to PVC watermain, additional rock and bollards, plumbing changes, and extra control points. Contingency is available for future changes.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
