Town of Belleair Public Works Facility

Exterior Elevation.jpg

The original Town of Belleair Public Works Facility was established in 1968 to house the existing various departments of public works. After years of use, the main Public Works building and truck bays became in disrepair. The building became infested with termites; the bays had structural damage; and the discovery of asbestos was found in certain areas of the facility. In 2012, the Town of Belleair’s Public Works management team along with the Design/ Build team of David Nelson Construction and Klar and Klar Architects developed a new plan to combine all of the various divisions into a new sustainable, Category 4 Hurricane Resistant facility. In addition, the new facility also serves as the Town of Belleair Emergency Operations Center and works in conjunction with Duke Energy to secure and protect a service vehicle f or use during times of emergency. The scope of work included concept development, design, permitting, demolition of the existing public works facility, construction of a new 10,784 S.F. Public Works Facility, and associated Sitework. The 10,784 SF Public Works facility is comprised of a 3,156 SF administration building constructed with concrete block, a 3,470 SF workshop constructed with Pre-Engineered Metal Building, and a 4,158 SF Equipment Parking Bay constructed with Pre-Engineered Metal Building. The new facility was constructed on the same parcel as the deteriorated existing facility and required construction to be completed in two phases. The first phase included construction of the 10,784 SF facility and surrounding Sitework and was completed in less than 7 months. Once the Town occupied the new facility, the deteriorated existing facility was demolished and the parking lot was completed. This project was awarded the American Public Works Association 2014 Project of the Year-Structures.
