Liz Hermann 10 stated she was also unaware of this. She understood the meeting on Thursday was to 11 discuss storage for oversized mattresses. 12 Ms. Knapp stated the meeting was to discuss storage of the mats the children sleep on. 13 Mayor Ranallo noted that change orders are very expensive. The agreement between the 14 City of St. Anthony and Community Services was that the same amount of space would be provided in the new building that is currently available in this building. 16 Ms. Knapp stated there is not enough storage in the current facility. She initially did not 17 measure the storage requirement and did not state the amount of storage necessary, only 18 the type of storage needed. When the plans were drawn and she saw the amount of 19 storage, she realized it would not even be adequate for their needs. 20 Mayor Ranallo stated the City would not be able to pay for any further storage space 21 beyond what was before them for consideration this evening.

Mr. O'Brien stated the decision that evening was if the Architect should move forward to the next step of preparing documents and obtaining a firm price of the storage area. 9 Morrison stated the motion made that evening approved a change order without the 10 paperwork not to exceed $49,100.00. 11 Mayor Ranallo noted Ms. Hermann had stated that the decision had to be made because 12 of the construction schedule. 13 Mike Cahill, Graus Construction, stated he had put pressure on Liz Hermann to obtain an answer. Since then, he has scheduled everything around that area and omitted it. He 01 apologized if someone was misinformed or misled. 16 Mayor Ranallo asked the consequence of the storage addition not being approved this 17 evening. Mr. Cahill stated it did not matter. He noted the storage addition could even be 18 added after completion of construction. 19 Enrooth noted this figure was $10,000.00 more than was anticipated. He asked if there 20 was any negotiating. Mr. Cahill stated there was not. 21 Mike Peterson, Sports Boosters stated he had not had a chance to discuss this issue with 22 all the Boardmembers. Before making a commitment he would have to poll the other 23 Boardmembers. If this does go forward, the Sports Boosters would be unable to meet the 24 payment schedule previously discussed. 25 Mr. Cahill stated he needed a commitment as soon as possible. Construction has reached 26 a phase that the gym cannot be completed without the erection of that wall. 27 Mr. Peterson stated he could have a response by July 2, 1996. He proposed to commit to 28 a payment schedule of $15,000.00 on August 1, 1996, $25,000.00 on January 1, 1997 and 29 the remainder on or before December 1, 1997. is Motion by Enrooth, second by Ranallo to approve Change Order #7 for the Storage 31 Addition in the amount of $59,026.00 contingent on the Sports Boosters approval of 32 payment of $40,000.00 in 1996 and $19,026.00 in 1997.
