During heavy rains, Staff <br />is required to cover office furniture with plastic and place buckets under the skylights to catch the <br />water. <br /> <br />Staff received several cost estimates, however the proposed designs for replacement are not <br />aesthetically pleasing. Staff reached out to W.L. Hall Co of Hopkins MN, contractor who installed <br />the translucent windows at the Public Works facility, and they submitted a quote of $59,239.00. <br /> <br />Repairs are budgeted in the Special Project Fund 480-4360-7050 which includes $59,239.00. <br /> <br />Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: Maintain and Plan for Infrastructure Improvements. <br /> <br />Financial Impact: No Impact to the 2026 Budget for these repairs is included in the special fund <br />account. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends that Council accept the repair quote from W. L Hall Co. of Hopkins, MN for <br />$59,239.00, to include a 5% contingency of $2,961.95, for a total project cost not to exceed <br />$62,200.95, budgeted from the Special Project Fund, account 480-4360-7050. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Don Peterson <br />Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation <br /> <br /> <br />
