Door County Community Center & Emergency Services
“Door County is a diverse mixed culture of tourism and multigenerational farming communities…so all project work needs to be of the highest quality, which is what we get from Immel. They have been a great partner on all my projects….I would recommend working with them no matter the size of your project.”
Wayne Spritka, Door County Facilities & Parks Director
Description
Door County converted its historic 1936 county highway garage into a new community center and EMT facility. The project included both an extensive renovation of the existing facility and a 10,000 square foot addition for Emergency Services. Immel Construction acted as the construction manager for the client and provided services including preliminary cost estimates, constructability review, bidding, and construction scheduling. Immel completed the project over $500,000 under the client’s original budget.
Door County worked with Wisconsin Focus on Energy to verify the energy saving strategies of the design and construction team. During the design phase, the Owner selected a number of energy conservation methods. Strategies that were adopted by the project included reduced fan system power, energy efficient DX Cooling, reduced exterior lighting, low lighting power density, high efficiency water heating, and increased building insulation.
