GOALS AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE STRATEGIC PLAN FOCUS AREAS: 
Infrastructure
SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Rainbow Road facility has been outgrown and no longer serves as a centralized location for
resource needs or reserve apparatus storage. The current site consists of a modular trailer and a two-
bay metal storage building, which are inadequate for operations of the City Departments.
The RSF will serve as a centralized resource hub utilized by Fire, Public Works, IT, and Community
Services, providing space for reserve apparatus, shared equipment, and departmental supplies.
Centralizing these functions improves operational efficiency, coordination, and asset management
across departments.
To ensure all options are thoroughly considered, the City evaluated new construction as well as the use
of a third-party logistics (3PL) provider that would store, ship, receive, and manage the inventory of
departmental equipment and supplies. Following a comprehensive review of all alternatives, the
proposed RSF location best meets the City’s operational demands while also serving as the most cost-
effective solution for addressing stakeholder needs.
BENEFITS:
The RSF will also supply critical testing and repair for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Self-
Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), ladders, and other equipment that serve as resources. In
addition, this facility will serve as a storage space for Public Works, Community Services, and IT
Departments. 
As the City continues to expand, further warehousing space is needed as well.  The RSF will improve

operational efficiency by consolidating equipment storage and support services, while also providing
flexibility for shared space among other city departments.
FUTURE ACTION:
No future Council action is anticipated. Quotes for Racking, Equipment, Office Cubicle, IT, and Tenant
Improvements within the designated space are being finalized.
FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Project is programmed in the CIP program in Fiscal Years (FY) 26 and 27. This contract and budget
transfer will not increase the total cost of the project ($1.0 million). To improve implementation efficiency
and ensure the facility is fully operational upon occupancy, $373,200 in tenant improvement (TI) costs
previously planned for FY27 will be advanced to FY26. The FY27 project budget will be reduced by the
corresponding $373,200.
