Fleet Maintenance Facility

Plantation, FL

When Plantation's Fleet Maintenance Facility was destroyed by Hurricane Wilma in late 2005, the City used grant money and insurance funding to create a state-of-the-art multifunctional new facility on the original public works site. With the City's greatly increased population over the past decades, the 40-year-old prefabricated metal building was outdated and insufficient to meet community needs. With a $2.2 million budget, the facility was replaced by a 15,900 SF structure that serves a 500-vehicle fleet, including cars, trucks, and equipment. The building houses six large-engine service bays, two smaller bays, administrative spaces, parts room, storage space, personnel lounge as well as showers, lockers, and restrooms.
