Motion declared passed. Mr. Shaughnessy explained he invited Mr. Mobley this evening because an all season build- ing will be discussed and Mr. Mobley can best inform this Board of the Building codes that must be followed. Mr. Mobley first explained that the building will have to be built uner the jurisdiction of the State Uniform building Code. The building must be fired rated, have a complete R Factor work up and the air circulation will be considered per capita. If the building runs over 3,000 square feet floor space, architectural drawings will be required. These drawings must be certified. Also the parking area must be immediate accessable to the building. The most economical building is rectangle in shape with a gable roof. Mr. Shaughnessy said he was thinking of a basement, Mr. Mobley said borings would be required and perc test would be required as well . However, Mr. Mobley said he would not recommend a full basement next to City Hall . Mr. Mobley said the very basic costs would be about $41 .00 per square foot not including ,--,,heating and air conditioning. The costs could reach $60.00 per square feet. As to the choice of styles Mr. Mobley suggested the Board select a building they have seen and liked and modify it to meet this Citys needs. Keep •the building simple. Mr. Shaughnessy asked what size building should this Board look at. Mr. Mobley said that this depends on how many people would be using the building at one time. Mr.. Scherer said he had been thinking of a building that would contain office spaces and possibly a basement that could be rented out for private occassions. Mr. Zelinka said he had reservations about public buildings being used for family type gatherings. Sometimes the word "favoritism" crops up in these situations. However, he did not see any problem with scouts, 4H or other community groups using this facility. He would encourage a private group such as the VFW or some other service based organization to build a recreational building for private use. He felt this Board should be committed to providing sports in this area with a utilitarian building but not be concerned with providing municipal office space. Mr. Foster suggested the building could be built to be expandible. Mr. Mobley suggested the building be built with knock out panels so additions could be added in the future. The Board asked Mr. Volk and Mr. Mobley to get together and make a rough draft of a building they would consider adequate for an all season building keeping in mind that this board has only a limited amount of money to work with and also keeping in mind that this building might have to be expanded. Plat - Pine Oaks, Counselor Realty, Inc. MR. Zelinka introduced two gentlemen who are developing an 80 acre plat on Pine Street. He explained the City Ordinance which requires 10% of the platted land or its value in . Page -2- = April 2, 1979 cash in lieu of land for park purposes. The developers would like to dedicate outlot A for park purposes. Mr. Zelinka noted this lot did not meet the 10% requrement but cash in addition to the land would be acceptable. Mr. Volk noted that since outlot A was located on the southeast corner of the plat, in the future if the land to the south and east were developed the City could ask for park dedication that would add to outlot A making it a large all facility park. He also noted that the street does not go all the way to the outlot. Arrangements would have to b.e made for access. After further discussion, Mr. Foster moved to recommend that the Council accept outlot A and cash as the park dedication for Pine Oaks. Mr. Johnson seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. Plat - Don Newpower A 120 acre plat submitted by Mr. Newpower located between County Road $84 and 24th Avenue was considered. Mr. Scherer moved to recommend to Council that lands located to the south of the proposed street out of block ##5 be accepted for park purposes. Mr. Johnson seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. It was noted that if lands were developed to the south of this plat additional lands could be added to this park making it a large all facility park. Plat - Twilight II Mr. Foster moved to recommend to Council that cash in lieu of land be accepted for park purposes. Mr. Johnson seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. Mr. Foster moved to adjourn at 10:00 P.M. Mr. Scherer seconded the motion. Motion declared passed.
