Mounds View City Council March 14, 2016 <br />Regular Meeting Page 6 <br /> <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller questioned what size of a building staff was requesting. Public Works <br />Director Erickson explained he was proposing a building size between Plan A and Plan B, which <br />would be a 13-year plan. <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller expressed concern with how the City would bond for this project <br />knowing that the size of the building was not increasing that much. She feared that the 15-year <br />plan was not the proper plan for the City. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause supported the 15-year plan as proposed by staff. He did not <br />believe the Council would be able to clearly project its Public Works needs 30 years out. He <br />commented that if garage space had to be added on in the future, this would be relatively <br />inexpensive. He believed the first challenge for this building would be identifying where the <br />building will go and if the building placement would allow for expansion. He discussed his <br />previous experience with plant expansions with Deluxe Corporation. <br /> <br />Council Member Hull asked why the sustainability measures were not a part of the RFP. Public <br />Works Director Erickson reported the sustainability measures were a part of the RFP and <br />explained the building would be designed to hold solar panels. He noted there was a firm that <br />worked with Xcel Energy on building design to address greater energy efficiencies. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty reviewed the project scope within the RFP. He reviewed several grammatical <br />changes within the proposal language. He requested that the building plans account for future <br />expansion. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Meehlhause/Gunn. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 8533, <br />Approve Public Works Facility Design Services Request for Proposals and Authorize <br />Advertisement. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. <br /> <br />F. Resolution 8534, Approve Additional Funding for Mounds View Community <br />Center Gym Floor Refinishing. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Erickson requested the Council approve additional funding for the <br />Mounds View Community Center gym floor refinishing. He discussed the new lines and logo <br />that would be placed on the gym floor and would cost $7,500. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Meehlhause. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 8534, <br />Approve Additional Funding for Mounds View Community Center Gym Floor Refinishing. <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller thanked staff for working with the contractor to get the new logo into <br />the Community Center gym floor. She believed this would be a nice addition to the floor. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried.
