Discussion then centered on the possibility of leaks and finding same. W. Hagen stated that in the 3" insulation water will lay on the facing until it finds a weak spot to run out. However, in the 8 ", water will run down the liner to the walls and down to the ground at an opening. W. Hagen stated, after explaining how their roofs are carefully installed, that if a leak should show up that Mattson will come back and take care of it. A poll was taken of the Committee members and all preferred having 8" insulation with the liner. W. L'Allier asked what would happen if the insulation got soaked before the water ran out. W. Hagen stated that the only place where a leak would occur is at the chimney stack, and water would then run down the stack and show up right away. After some more discussion, the Council wished the minutes to show that the majority of the members recommended the liner. The discussion moved to the overhangs. Deductions for smaller overhangs had been given in the alternates. The following changes were offered by W. Hagen and accepted by the Committee and Council members, to wit: 1. Change to a 2' canopy on the side with the garage doors; 2. Delete the two 51 canopies and the 3'6" canopy; and 3. Add a gutter, downspout and heat tape over the garage door on the West for a total deduction of $2389. It was generally felt that the canopies on the front half of the building should be kept as specified in order to keep a good appearance from the front. W. L'Allier inquired about the coffee bar. W. Hagen stated that their heating system would not allow enough room for it to be built into the furnace room; they had moved the bar into the corner of the Council Chambers. This would consist of a vanity with hot and cold running water and 2 doors below, with electrical outlets and closed off from the hall by a folding door. There would be no stove or refrigerator. There was discussion on these two items; however, they could not be found in the specs. W. Hagen stated that such facilities were available in his office building but were never used. There was no objection to having placed the coffee bar in the new location. The Council had decided to go with 26 gauge metal rather than 24 gauge. There was discussion on using a 30# or 40# live weight roof. Although some of those -present thought that 30# would-be adequate, since the specs had called for 40# they felt that we were compelled to stay with the 40# rather than the 30#. Discussion moved to the choice of the heating system. W. Hagen thoroughly ex- plained why his layout had been bid, how it differed from our specs, and why Mattson could go by our specs for the bid price. He stated that if the Council wished, he could have the new drawings for our heating specs in by Monday if we wished to go that way. However, if we wished to go by the Mattson plans calling for a 3 zone overhead system in the front half, both Mattson and Lennox would guarantee that the system would be adequate and work well. W. Hagen stated that the heating units would be oversized for the requirements and would handle lower temperatures than specified. John McLean was in favor of the 3 zone system; there will be carpeting so heated floors are unnecessary. W. L'Allier was a little doubtful about deviating from our specs on the heating system, but the rest of those present favored Mattson's original heating layout. It was decided that we would take Mattson's recommendations for heating and air conditioning. It was decided to stay with the 3/8" sheetrock backing. The choice of outside color was considered. Glenn Rehbein stated that we should keep the color light to prevent fading, make the building look larger and keep it cooler. W. Hagen stated that if they were to do the interior painting, it would cost $950. After considerable discussion, W. Bohjanen moved to have the
