Ms. Olivier suggested several design changes <br />and types of doors that could be considered. <br />Consensus was reached for Scheme B with a scissor truss design. <br />Ms. Olivier stated a nice design can be created with the truss to assure it is aesthetically pleasing. <br />She noted that Scheme A is 1,689 square feet and estimated to cost $286,534 <br />(materials only) with a probable cost of $418,092. Scheme B is 1,712 square feet and <br />estimated to cost $291,122 (materials only) with a probable cost of $424,786. It was <br />noted the probable cost includes equipment, OHP, bond, liability, and a 15% <br />contingency. <br />Mr. Zurbey asked about costs to date on this project. Councilmember Hodson stated he does not <br />know that amount. Mr. Zurbey asked if the Council has directed staff to seek grant funds. <br />Mr. Hartman advised that the Council directed the Parks Commission to revise the plan to stay <br />within a budget of $2.3 million. <br />Ms. Olivier reviewed options to return to the Council for more money, reduce the floor plan by <br />one bay in the warming house and one bay in the picnic pavilion, draft a referendum for Central <br />Park and Water Tower Park alone or draft jointly with the public works building and fire station, <br />or place the project on hold for one or two years. Ms. Olivier cautioned that the costs will only <br />increase so delaying the project is not a good option to consider. <br />Commissioner Jenson stated he would not support returning to the Council for more money, <br />noting the Council has already indicated the level of affordability. <br />Mr. Zurbey asked if the money already spent on this project is included in that budget. Mr. <br />Hartman estimated that $85,000 has been spent so far. <br />Chair Jindra suggested that bids be received and then discussed with the Council at the upcoming <br />joint meeting. Ms. Olivier stated if the bids are high, it could be rebid in January when bids may <br />be more competitive. <br />Mr. Zurbey asked how close the estimates are. Ms. Olivier stated she believes they are very <br />close since the contractor used has been within 0% to 10% on other estimates. <br />Ms. Olivier stated another option would be to eliminate the tongue and groove ceiling and use <br />plywood. <br />Mr. Zurbey stated he supports the suggestion by Chair Jindra to get bids and if they are high, <br />
