SPECIAL ALERT: HURRICANE WILMA RELIEF EFFORT

8/11/2008 - The Council plans to approve the following: Resolution No. 339-08(F) providing appropriations for the receipt of Federal EmergencyManagement Agency (FEMA) funds for the Banyan Street Parking Garage Repairs.A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF WEST PALMBEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE APPROPRIATION OR TRANSFER OF CITYFUNDS IN FISCAL YEAR 2007/2008 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 4.03 OF THECITY CHARTER OF THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA, FOR THEPURPOSE OF AMENDING THE SELF INSURANCE FUND BUDGET TO PROVIDEAPPROPRIATIONS FOR THE RECEIPT OF FEDERAL EMERGENCYMANAGEMENT AGENCY (FEMA) FUNDS FOR REPAIRS TO THE BANYAN STREETPARKING GARAGE; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHERPURPOSES. Agenda Cover Memorandum No.: 16972Staff Recommended Motion:Approve Resolution No. 339-08(F).Background:The Banyan Boulevard Parking Structure was built in the late 1970s and consists of a four (4)level, 2-bay double thread structure. The structure has a footprint of approximately 123 feet by304 feet. The existing structural system includes a conventionally reinforced concrete cast-in-placeconcrete slab and precast single tee beams and columns. The precast beams and columns are at 18foot centers and are connected, using a partial moment connection at each end of the beams, tocreate a wind frame on each grid line of the structure. These frames resist lateral loads and transferthese loads to the foundations. The structure has an expansion joint near its center and is supportedon piles.The structure experienced structural and nonstructural damage due to Hurricane Wilma. Tim Haas,consultants, noted in their report that most of the damage observed inside the structure can beattributed to excessive lateral movement and rotation of the structure during the hurricane. Someof the typical damage inside the structure included spalled and/or cracked concrete and failedsealants, most of which do not reduce the structural integrity of the garage. Damage adjacent tomany of the beam to column wind connections in the center of the structure was of concern to theinspectors. On the lower floors this damage did not appear to have reduced the structural capacityof the connection and it was recommended to install new sealants and concrete sealer above theseconnections to protect them from water intrusion and possible corrosion damage, however on theupper floors the damage was more severe and resulted in the failure of some of the windconnections. This reduced the capacity of the connection and it was recommended that theseconnection be repaired.Tim Haas inspectors met with FEMA representatives to discuss their findings and acknowledgedthat the structure had experienced some damage due to Hurricane Wilma. FEMA indicated thattheir program would repair items in kind and upgrade damaged items if it can be shown that theupgrade will reduce the possibility of future hurricane damage. Slider Engineering, subconsultantsof Civil Design, Inc were hired to prepare drawings for both structural andnonstructural repairs as well as improvements in the design. This repair will bring the structureback to the capacity it was originally designed for.The Engineers cost estimate for the this work totalled $529,182.00. Of which $243,107.00 werefor the repairs to the columns, corbels, cracks, surfaces, masonry and spalls. The City wasapproved, by FEMA, to complete Hazard Mitigation improvements to the column/tee shearconnections and the facade bracing, estimated at $286,075.00. These improvements were limitedto the top floor only and would meet the requirements of the Building Code.Fiscal Note:Resolution No. 339-08(F) provides appropriations of $318,002 from FEMA funds for this project.In addition, $211,180 is currently available in the budget, for a total project cost of $529,182.
