Mounds View City Council July 25, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 15 Dr. Belting stated that he did consider this location noting that due to the numbers it was not 1 feasible and he decided that he would prefer to own his own building. 2 3 Tom Belting, 1911 Park Avenue, stated that the concept they had done with Landcor was strictly 4 leasing the space. He explained that their concept would be to condo the unit where they could 5 either lease or own the space, as it would tie them to the community for a longer period of time. 6 7 MOTION/SECOND. Gunn/Thomas To Approve Resolution 6588 Approving the Amendment 8 to the Walgreen’s PUD Agreement by adding ‘Office’ as an allowed use on Lot 2, Block 2, 9 Mounds View City Hall Addition, Parcel 2, Mounds View Planning Case PA2005-001 and 10 waive the reading. 11 12 Ayes-3 Nays-2 (Stigney, Flaherty) Motion carried. 13 14 C. Consider Resolution 6583, Approving the Final Plans and Specifications and 15 Setting a Bid Date for the City Hall Rehabilitation Project. 16 17 Public Works Director Lee stated that detailed plans and specifications have been completed for 18 the City Hall Renovation project and have been included for Council’s review. He stated that 19 should this project proceed, the next step would be to approve the plans and specifications, as 20 submitted and set a bid date. He stated that an August 24, 2005 bid date would allow ample time 21 to do the proper notification as required by Chapter 8 of the City Charter. He stated that the next 22 step at that time, should City Council decide to proceed, would be an action to award a 23 construction contract, award a storage and moving contract, approve a contract amendment with 24 Canyon Grille, and authorization of payment to Ramsey County for office space rental. He stated 25 that it is anticipated that these items would be presented to the City Council for consideration and 26 approval on September 12, 2005. He indicated that the construction would begin sometime after 27 October 2, 2005 and would be completed in April 2006. 28 29 Council Member Thomas stated that one item she didn’t notice in the documentation was what 30 projects have been set up, the must haves, how they would re-evaluate the project and a priority 31 list of the project. 32 33 Public Works Director Lee stated that there would be line items for each item and would be 34 reviewed when the bids are returned. He explained that if items are deemed to high they would 35 consider removing them from the bid at that time. He stated that at this point in time there is 36 only one bid alternate and that is for the front entranceway to do the tower design. He explained 37 that this is considered to be more cosmetic change as opposed to dealing with energy savings or 38 the disability act. He stated that all items would be broken down within the bid. 39 40 Mayor Marty referenced the tower design and asked why it was included, as it was already 41 removed. He stated that it was his understanding that they were not going to fix the vestibule. 42 43 Public Works Director Lee explained that they kept it in the packet as a bid alternate. He 44 referenced A201 and explained that the base bid, as it is written, shows the vestibule as being 45
