PSeveral contingencies have driven up the bill in recent months. The City also had some nasty surprises.
“We released a cost estimate last spring with the architect on file. But it did not include certain elements. For example, we thought we could transfer the generator from the old police station. But it is ultimately impossible. It will therefore cost us an additional $ 150,000, ”said Bromont General Manager Éric Sévigny.
The City must also pay an additional $ 140,000 in civil engineering to have the infrastructure necessary to install sprinklers in the building. We are talking among other things about the replacement of a pipe between the street and the building of insufficient diameter, specified the DG. “We also have more important plumbing work,” he said.
Among the work to be carried out in the new station, note the fitting out of holding cells and the installation of systems to restrict access to the building.
