Childs had included in the Council ' s agenda packet an overview 11 of the City negotiations to purchase ' the Parkview building from 12 the School District as well as estimates he had gotten of what it 13 would cost the City to move the Fire Station up to the building 14 and make the necessary improvements to the : roof and heating 15 system, which the City would .want to do if the building were to be 16 used for City Hall. These costs did not include the cost -of the 17 land itself , he added. According to the Manager , the bottom line 18 for making the move would be approximately $230 , 000 , which would 19 put a new roof on the building; update the. boilers but not 20 replace any of the radiators. The electrical and plumbing seem 021 to be in good order, he said. The estimate did not include 22 window replacements; -any type of mansard roof ; parking lot 23 repairs ; or remodeling - any of the offices the City might be 24 leasing to new tenants. The costs would cover the installation 25 of four large doors for- the fire trucks in the gymnasium as well 26 'as a new floor with traps and plumbing for the new station area .in 27 the gym; a hose dryer; and what it would cost to remodel existing 28 office space for dormitory and kitchen facilities for the firemen. 29 Not included would be any costs for remodeling the - police, offices 30 or covering over the alcove between the police station and the 31 gymnasium for a police parking area. - No new ceiling tile for the 32 hallways would be included in the remodeling. Mr. Childs said 33 these costs were planned to only cover the "bare bones" expense of 34 making -the move from the current fire station to Parkview. and .to 35 make 'two necessary major system repairs to the building. 36 The City -Manager summarized his own. recollection of how the 37 concept of the City taking over. Parkview -had evolved as first 38 involving an offer by the School District to give the building to. 39 the City, followed by their . asking the. , City to pay at least 40 $70 , 000 to -protect -. the. District ' s New Brighton tax. payers ' 41 interests . That figure .was adjusted upwards wlien :the School Board 42 discovered they had only ' $63 ,000 available to make the move when 43 it was estimated it would- cost them $2.73 , 000 , leaving them 44 $210 , 000 short, which -they now .wanted the City to makeup. . •45 The Council would be- 'reacting to that request during the joint 46 Counci-l/School Board meeting scheduled to be held in the Council 13
