Parks Commission Meeting Minutes October 11, 1999 Page 2 1 questioned the figure of $800 as the cost for repainting the metal arches. Mr. Wong stated that is 2 a correct dollar amount. Kosciolek stated that the metal arches are still under warranty and ques- 3 tioned the added cost of $800.00. Mr. Wong clarified that the arches would be repainted free of 4 charge pursuant to the warranty if the same colors were used. Jindra clarified that the Commis - 5 Sion had decided previously to change the colors of the arches to tan and green. Wolff asked if 6 the charge of $800 would be alleviated if the three arches were painted all one color. Mr. Wong 7 agreed to investigate that issue. 8 Sports Boosters Representative Jan Jensen asked Mr. Wong to clarify from the punch list which 9 items were to be completed this year or next. Mr. Wong went through the current punch list 10 items as well as wish list items and depicted which items were to be completed this year or next. 11 Mr. Wong mentioned that the Commission had previously discussed ordering custom-made 12 drinking fountains. Jindra stated that the satellite bathrooms ordered have a spigot with running 13 water and the Commission should consider the possibility that the custom-made drinking foun- 14 tains are not needed. 15 Kosciolek referred to the punch list and suggested that all concrete paving be completed at the 16 same time instead of in increments. Louiselle suggested that paving wait until spring. Mr. Wong 17 agreed to confirm with the contractor that the concrete paving would be performed in the spring. 18 Jindra added that the Commission wished to have the metal arches painted this fall and the next 19 Parks Commission meeting would be in November. Jindra stated that the Commission would 20 like to retain the two different colors as previously voted on, but requested that Mr. Wong 21 contact her after speaking with the contractor to determine if an extra charge would be 22 implemented for the variation in color. 23 Jindra offered that the Commission would be willing to postpone some of the punch list items 24 until spring if it would be beneficial. Louiselle wondered if the contractor would be willing to 25 continue the projects in the spring. Council Liaison George Marks questioned the amount of 26 money that had been held back pending completion of the park. Mr. Wong responded that 5% 27 has been held back and that the Commission was also receiving $250.00 per day for liquidated 28 damages. 29 Mr. Wong mentioned the difficulties in obtaining the playground equipment for the park. Jindra 30 reviewed for the Commission that a large piece of equipment was ordered and received, but cer- 31 tain pieces were missing. Mr. Wong stated that his experience with Flannigan Sales has been ex - 32 cellent, and he was disappointed that the Commission has experienced problems with Flannigan 33 Sales in receiving and installing the playground equipment. Mr. Wong mentioned that, although 34 Flannigan Sales is apologetic, it can not determine when the equipment will be received and 35 installed. Currently, the missing pieces have been located in Illinois and are being shipped back.
