Description
The existing City Hall building consists of three (3) components; a 5-storey tower, a 2-storey service block consisting of council chambers and service center, and a single storey ‘annex’ which is connected to the rest of the building via a corridor link. The original building was constructed in 1965 with major additions completed in 1975, 1988 and 2000.
It is the intent of the City to replace the HVAC system in totality with new. The new HVAC system may include VAV air handling systems throughout the office tower and service areas, and new air handling units provided for council chambers and committee rooms. Dx Cooling and Central District Heating System heating may be used in all AHU’s to provide air conditioning and heating. Radiation zones/valves will need to be adjusted to accommodate the new design. New BMCS (Building Management Control system) to be designed to meet City standards is also in scope.
The current mechanical systems are located within the basement mechanical room and also on rooftop(s). The City anticipates the new units to be rooftop based, with minimal equipment being installed in the basement mechanical room.
As part of the potential for rooftop units, a roofing replacement on all areas of the building is also in scope.
The fire alarm system replacement/upgrade is also deemed in scope.
