Fire Facility Financing- Terri Heaton, Springsted, Inc. financial consultant, <br />reviewed a PowerPoint presentation with the council (on file). The presentation included <br />information on the projects to be funded and the type of financing proposed. She <br />explained the lease revenue and abatement funding processes. The council reviewed a <br />proposed schedule for financing consideration. Community Development Director <br />Grochala explained that staff wanted the council to have this review of the financing <br />process since they will be voting on the bid award later at the council meeting. <br />2. Review Regular Agenda of February 23, 2015 — <br />Item 6A, Accepting and Awarding Bids and Awarding Contract for the Lino <br />Lakes Fire Station Project — Quinn Hutson, CNH Architects, reviewed a PowerPoint <br />presentation (on file) outlining the results of the bid process for development of the fire <br />station. His review included a summary of the bid process, the bid results, the base bid <br />and alternates and a project timeline. <br />The council discussed Alternate 5 that relates to doors for the station. There are a couple <br />of options — one is the four -fold doors included by the architect and the other is high <br />speed coiling doors. The coiling doors would be less expensive. Council Member <br />Rafferty noted that he has seen the coiling doors in action and knows they are good; his <br />goal has been to make sure that the council has cost options as the project moves forward. <br />A representative of the coiling door provider was present and provided additional <br />information on his product. The council determined that the action on the bid should <br />include selection of a door model but the option chosen could be changed down the line. <br />Item 4B, Incentive Program for the Recruitment of Paid On -Call Fire <br />Personnel — Public Safety Director Swenson reviewed his request to reinstate the <br />incentive program. He noted that the incentive amounts have been reduced. <br />1 <br />
