MMO TO. MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL I FROM: CLERK -ADMINISTRATOR DATE: JULY 18, 1984 SUBJECT: LOWER LEVEL CARPETING AND PAINTING FUNDS Pursuant to Council direction at the July 16 Agenda Session I discussed with Finance Director Brager the availability of funds to accomplish the painting and carpeting of City Hall lower level as well as the painting of the stairways, restrooms and foyer area. Staff has made a rough estimate that this work could cost approximately $9,000 based on the fact that the painting would have to be accomplished by a professional painter using spray equipment and epoxy paint and the carpeting would have to be of an industrial strength nature which would be able to withstand the heavy traffic and dirt levels experienced in that area. Mr. Brager has advised me that as a result of action taken by the 1984 Legislature the City of Mounds View will be receiving $9,257 in reinstated local government aids during 1984. This money is not included within the 1984 budget and, therefore, can be considered to be an unexpected revenue. Therefore, these monies would be available to fund this work effort. After the July 16 Agenda Session I requested Public Works/ Community Development Director Steve Thatcher to investigate the water problems we are currently experiencing in the lower level area and requested a report from him within two weeks suggesting any necessary corrective action or repairs. Once these corrective actions or repairs are accomplished Staff will obtain proposals from professional painting firms to accomplish the painting of the lower level and carpeting firms to carpet the lower level and put rubber treads on stairwells. Council will be approving the bids for these items as well as the color schemes being proposed by Staff. Should you have any questions regarding this matter or require any additional informa- tion, lease contact me.
