01/10/1985 CIVIC CENTER COMMITTEE MINUTES
JANUARY 10, 1985
Committee members present: V. Johnson, C. Eadon, B. Carn, C. Hopkins, S.
Mueller, E. Duffield.
Present from Smith/Dull: Larry Smith, Norm Dull, John
Staff liaison: Joy Martin
Cost estimates at 75% completed drawings was presented by Norm Dull. Total
estimated cost of project is $1,689,785.00.
There have been no substantial changes in square footage since site design
review.
The drawings at this time contain no deductive alternates for the bidding
process.
Staff presented a draft of the letter calling for bids. This letter is being
reviewed by the City Attorneys.
Before the opening of bids, the Committee needs to establish pre—qualification
criteria.
It is probably a good idea to submit our recommended criteria to City Council
at the same time as we ask for them to call for bids.
Committee will discuss this again later during this meeting hopefully.
Update on the GTE right—of-way given by Bob Carn who has met with Frank
Currie. The local GTE representative sees no problem, but he must arite a
letter to the head office for final approval. As of this afternoon we still
don't know if the letter has been sent. Usually it takes about a month upon
receiving the letter for the home office to make a decision.
Upon more research the excess soils problem appears less severe according to
Norm Dull.
Advice from our architectural firm regarding deductive alternates - they
should be large enough that we can keep our list to 3 suggestions.
Possible suggestions: per Norm Dull
sq. footage cuts:
quiet room N/end of library
holding area/sally port
administrator' s office/conference room
It is costing about $49.00 sq. ft. on the overall project — we can figure
about $30.00 sq. ft. savings.
After much discussion the Committee decided:
