City Council Regular Meeting Minutes <br />May 27, 2008 <br />Page 4 <br />Councilmember Roth stated on page 37, he questioned the $12,800. he asked if this was hourly, <br />how much work was this, and how did they know when they were approaching the $12,800. <br />City Manager Momson responded the $12,800 was a not to exceed number and they cannot go <br />over unless they had approval. He indicated this should cover the assessment for this building. <br />Councilmember Stille asked if the assessment would cover when items needed to be replaced or <br />repaired. City Manager Mornson responded it would include this. <br />9 Councilmember Thuesen asked what was the experience of Sebesta Blomberg & Associates and <br />10 have they checked their references City Manager Momson responded the City has had previous <br />11 experience with this company and had an excellent experience. He noted all references were <br />12 checks and came back favorably. <br />13 <br />14 Mayor Faust asked if they would be coming back with actual testing information on repairs, or <br />15 expected life expectancy. City Manager Momson responded he was not sure if they would do <br />16 actual testing, or if they would come back with an expected life expectancy. <br />17 <br />18 Mayor Faust stated they were only looking at this building and the last time they did this, they <br />19 also looked at other buildings that were in need and he believed they should look at the other <br />20 areas also. He stated he would like to see this expanded to the Public Works, Fire Station, and <br />21 liquor stores. He believed they might want to table this for future discussion. <br />22 <br />23 Councilmember Gray agreed with Mayor Faust and he believed all of the buildings needed to be <br />24 part of a comprehensive facilities maintenance plan. He stated they needed to look ahead to <br />25 determine when they would be spending funds for maintenance costs. <br />26 <br />27 Councilmember Thuesen agreed to the tabling and wanted to see more information on an energy <br />28 component also. <br />29 <br />30 Councilmember Roth stated he did not want to table this as it would just delay the project. He <br />31 believed the items on the Johnson Control were minor as far as the overall project was <br />32 concerned. He asked Council to reconsider. He stated the Johnson Control was done over a year <br />33 ago and nothing had been done. He believed the HVAC system was in need of updating and <br />34 there were some things that could be done to make the building more comfortable. He noted if <br />35 they liked the work they did, then they could be put on the other projects. <br />36 <br />37 Councilmember Stille stated he believed they could wait to incorporate the other buildings and <br />38 delaying this for a short period of time would not make that much of a difference. <br />39 <br />40 Councilmember Thuesen stated they had one chance to do this right and he did not see the rush <br />41 to push this through when this had been put on hold for years. He stated it needed to be <br />42 addresses, but he did not want to push the project forward just to meet a deadline. He did not <br />43 want this to be fast tracked. <br />44 <br />45 Mayor Faust stated he believed they could come back within a month with the information they <br />46 wanted. He stated they needed to take a look at some of these other issues and he did not want to <br />
