<br /> <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Mayor Keis and Members of City Council <br /> <br />FROM: Bill Dircks, Public Works Director <br /> <br />DATE: March 7, 2018 <br /> <br />RE: Blasting and Painting Metal on Little Canada Road Obelisks <br /> <br />The red decorative metal on the five obelisks along Little Canada Road has faded over the years and <br />needs to be blasted and re-painted. Staff received quotes from three companies to perform this work. <br />Fresh Blast quoted $1900 for the first one and then a price to be determined for the other four. <br />Central Sandblasting quoted a price of $2975 for all five obelisks. <br />Brighton Sandblasting quoted a price of $2500 for all five obelisks. <br />Based on the quotes received staff recommends Brighton Sandblasting perform the work for a price of <br />$2500. They will blast each piece, epoxy prime them, and paint them with an oil-based polyurethane <br />paint that should last a number of years without fading. <br />Public Works staff will removed the metal parts from the obelisks and deliver them to Brighton <br />Sandblasting in Blaine and then pick them up when they are finished and re-install them. The plan is <br />to do the work in three stages so only one of three metal bands are missing from each obelisk at a time. <br />
