<br /> NEW BUSINESS
<br /> 1 Councilman McDonald said he has received many complaints concerning 18th between City Vmew and
<br /> -' Oak Patch Road, and asked about the status of the sewer and paving project. The Public Works Director
<br /> said problems have arisen because of extensive sewer construction, but with the traffic detour put into
<br /> today it is hoped work can be expedited. He said the project is about six weeks from completion and
<br /> the weather will determine its progress.
<br /> e 2 The City Manager said Councilmen Anderson, Purdy, and Lassen, selection committee, will meet
<br /> this week to choose the architect for the parking structure at 10th and Oak.

<br /> and (2) review of those portions of the Community Goals report underlined as needing implementation.

<br /> The City Manager explained $75,000 was budgeted for this building; the original cost estimated
<br /> was $71,000 before details of the hose tower were known. He recommended award of contract to
<br /> A&G Construction on their base bid of $76,300 plus Alternate 3, making a total cost for the
<br /> building of $80,900. With inclusion of architect's fees, construction insurance, and soil tests,
<br /> e the overall cost will be $87,314. He said in order to be able to proceed, $10,000 will have to
<br /> be transferred from the fire department automotive equipment fund and equipment now being used
<br /> in the old station could be used for another budget year releasing $2500 in the present budget.
<br /> Mayor Cone questioned the need for the hose tower requiring the additional $4600. It was ex-
<br /> plained the tower provides better air circulation than an inclined ramp and generally does a
<br /> better job than the electric cabinets so far as amount of hose which can be dried at a time
<br /> and in extending the life expectancy of the hose. William Wilson, architect, explained also
<br /> that the $4600 figure mainly represents appurtenances in the tower such as hose brackets,
<br /> ladder, framing, hoist, and catwalk. He said it would be very difficult for firemen on off
<br /> 'hours to construct a separate hose tower, as suggested by the Mayor. Mr. Wilson answered
<br /> several other questions concerning other alternates, and explained the per-square-foot cost
<br /> of $13.80 would be reduced to $12.30 if the site work amounting to $8520 is taken into con-
<br /> sideration. He said duct work will be installed in the entire building for air conditioning,
<br /> but at present the coil unit and controls would be provided for only the living side, with the
<br /> sleeping and study quarters to be air conditioned at some future time. Completion of the proj-
<br /> I ect would be expected in 90 to 120 days from the date of award of contract. Some discussion
<br /> took place with regard to possibility of reducing the size of the apparatus room, but Mr. Wilson
<br /> said the designed size is the minimum. The City Manager explained the building's potential
<br /> is to house four pieces of equipment.
<br /> Dr. Purdy moved seconded by Mr. Anderson to award the contract to A&G Construction on their base bid
<br /> of $76,300 plus Alternate 3 for the hose tower at $4600; to transfer $10,000 from the Fire Equipment
<br /> Fund and use $2500 budgeted this year for equipment; and ask Councilman Lassen to review the plans
<br /> and specifications before the contract is signed. Rollcall vote. All councilmen present voting aye,
<br /> e motion carried.
