Resolution 8805, Approving the Proposal from Oertel Architects for <br />Construction Administration Services of the Mounds View Public Works <br />Facility. <br /> <br />Interim Public Works Director Peterson requested the Council approve a proposal from Oertel <br />Architects for construction administration services for the Mounds View Public Works Facility. <br />He explained this contract would assist the Public Works Department with completing this <br />project due to staffing changes. He reviewed the services that would be provided by Oertel <br />Architects, along with the associated costs and recommended approval of the proposal. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause asked if Oertel Architects would consider having a fixed bid. <br />Interim Public Works Director Peterson stated he was uncertain if Oertel would approve of this, <br />but stated he could ask. <br /> <br />Mayor Mueller stated the City was seeking a new Public Works Director at this time. It was her <br />hope this would not take 10 months to complete this process. She asked if the contract should <br />proceed with a full 10-month contract. Interim Public Works Director Peterson explained this <br />was his recommendation as the new Public Works Director would have enough to take on with <br />the City. <br /> <br />Mayor Mueller questioned if the Council should proceed with the hourly contract or wait to hear <br />back from Interim Public Works Director Peterson regarding a fixed bid. City Administrator <br />Ericson recommended the Council moved forward with the hourly contract. He feared a fixed <br />bid could come back higher. He noted the City would only be billed for work that was needed. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Meehlhause. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 8805, <br />Approving the Proposal from Oertel Architects for Construction Administration Services of the <br />Mounds View Public Works Facility. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause stated he would like to see a financial spreadsheet on the costs for <br />the Public Works Facility to see how the project was progressing. He wanted to see if the costs <br />that have incurred to date were in alignment with previous projections. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 3 Nays – 0 Motion carried. <br /> <br />10. REPORTS
