<br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />August 9, 1994 <br /> <br />Page 4 <br /> <br />Council Business. continued <br /> <br />City Manager Matthew Fulton presented for consideration the change order for the <br />Family Service Center (FSC). <br /> <br />The FSC project is moving along very well and the tentative date for the formal <br />community opening will be December 16. The Park and Recreation Department <br />plans to move into the facility around Thanksgiving. <br /> <br />The proposed change orders are technical in nature, and as a result the remaining <br />contingency amount will stand at approximately $25,885. One of the change orders <br />relates to installation of exposed aggregate on the second floor's common floor <br />space corridor. That change would add $2,683 to the contract. It was felt that this <br />change in flooring would eliminate the likely occurrence of stains as a result from <br />the teen center traffic and concession stand area and require less long term <br />maintenance. <br /> <br />The second change order relates to the desire to partition the large meeting room on <br />the lower level. There appears to be a strong marketing demand to accommodate <br />small parties that might be tied into the indoor playground area. The partitions <br />would be removable and allow flexibility for smaller gatherings. The impact to <br />install these partitions would be about $20,000 and incorporation of this change <br />would eliminate the remaining contingency. <br /> <br />Fulton noted that FSC construction manager, Doc Peterson, has reviewed the change <br />orders and does not foresee any other significant construction changes. The City <br />has a good handle on the construction budget and it is unlikely that other major <br />changes are needed. <br /> <br />Doc Peterson said the partition would require some modifications in lighting, duct <br />work and mechanical, and those costs are included in the change order. <br /> <br />Williams asked if the partitions are removable. Peterson said the partitions which <br />are panelled can be folded and slide into the corner of the room. The partitions are <br />able to divide the room into two or four spaces and would not interfere with the <br />room's use. Williams asked if these partitioned rooms would be sound proof. <br />Peterson said the sound panels are of high quality materials and should help with <br />sound control. Also, the ceiling has transfer grills which assist to minimize noise. <br /> <br />Motion by Larson, seconded by Gunderman, to APPROVE CHANGE ORDERS <br />PCO #4-$13,900; PCO #5-$3,306; AND PCO #6-$6,054 WHICH INCLUDE <br />CHANGING THE UPSTAIRS CARPETING TO EXPOSED AGGREGATE <br />SURFACE. FURTHER, TO APPROVE APPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO <br />PROCEED FOR THE INCLUSION OF PARTITIONED WALLS WITHIN <br />THE INTERIOR MEETING ROOM SPACE ON THE FlRST FLOOR FOR <br />AN ANTICIPATED APPROXIMATE AMOUNT OF $20,000. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. <br /> <br />Fulton explained that the State Primary Election date conflicts with the September <br />13 Council Meeting. Because of the regulation that no public business can be <br />conducted during election hours and that we use the Council Chambers as a polling <br />place, it is recommended the meeting date be changed. <br /> <br />Council Business I <br /> <br />Change Order for <br />Family Service Center <br />Report 94-186 <br /> <br />Change of Council <br />Meeting Date <br />Report 94-187 <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />
