Mounds View City Council January 28, 2002 <br />Regular Meeting Page 16 <br /> <br />Council Member Marty asked if it would be possible to expand to make up for the loss of <br />parking. <br /> <br />Mr. Gannon indicated that the portable classroom on the south end will be removed and may <br />make room for additional parking. <br /> <br />Mayor Sonterre indicated the site would not allow for expansion of the parking lot. He then <br />commented that a commitment from the school to utilize the east parking lot would help a lot. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated the City was dealing with Pinewood Elementary on some mold <br />issues because of problems with the roof. He then asked how many additions had been made to <br />the roof at Edgewood Middle School. <br /> <br />Mr. Gannon indicated the school was built in 1957 and the pool addition added in 1966. He then <br />indicated the school district has ongoing issues with reproofing and repairs and the <br />superintendent of buildings and grounds has pointed out delicate areas of the roof and those areas <br />fall into areas where it is likely that correction and addition work will be done. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated he would like to be as proactive as possible to make sure that <br />they stay ahead of the game instead of getting into a mold issue at Edgewood. He then asked if <br />an air quality report had been done. <br /> <br />Mr. Gannon explained that the school would be receiving a new HVAC system and noted that <br />was one of the main items on the referendum. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty asked if the duct work was lined or galvanized. <br /> <br />David Calser of Stahl Construction indicated that a lot of the roofing problems at Pinewood were <br />caused because of construction activity on the roof. He then explained that there would not be <br />any need for construction activity on the roof in this case because the new mechanicals would be <br />placed on the new roof sections rather than the existing roof. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty asked if an air quality study had been done. <br /> <br />Mr. Calser indicated he thought an air quality study had been done as well as a roof report. He <br />then noted that, since the roof report was done almost five years ago Stahl Construction would be <br />doing a roof report. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty asked if the duct work would be checked when the new HVAC system is <br />installed. <br /> <br />Mr. Calser indicated the school would be receiving all new duct work and noted the school <br />would have a state of the art HVAC system when completed. <br />
