The overall plan is to purchase this <br />house and lot with the intention of removing the structure and adding <br />parking to the library facility. To this end, it is in the city's best interest to <br />have the house demolished and removed prior to winter, 1997-98. <br /> <br />Attached for your review is a proposal from Veit & Company to demolish and <br />remove the structures (house and garage). The city will be providing the <br />backfill material. The original estimate of Veit & Company, Inc., was <br />slightly more than $7,000. Veit has completed the demolition work for the <br />city at the old City Hall (creamery building) and the King and Main <br />structures. Another quote from the Five Diamond Company was requested, <br />but this firm declined due to its current work scheduled. Building Official <br />Cliff Skogstad is attempting to obtain another quote for this work from R.P. <br />Excavating Company out of Maple Grove. If no other quotes are received, the <br />city is still comfortable awarding this contract to Veit & Company as it has <br />consistently been the low quote which the city has received on other projects. <br />If the other quote is received prior to the Monday evening Council meeting, <br />this quote will be distributed for your consideration. It is anticipated that <br />the house will be removed and the site backfilled in early November. <br /> <br />Recommendaiton <br /> <br />Pending any other quotes being received, it is recommended that the City <br />Council award the demolition of the structures at 431 Proctor to Veit & <br />Company, Inc., according to its October 6, 1997, quotation. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
