BOX 720 <br />ELK RIVER, MN 55330 <br />(612) 441 - 2956 <br />FAX * (612) 241 - 9432 <br /> <br />To: Pat Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br />From: Rich Czech, Arena Manager <br /> <br />Date: August 30, 1999 <br /> <br />Subject: Barn Bleachers <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Bids were opened for the Barn bleachers last Friday August 27, 1999 (please <br />see bid package). Three companies came out to look at the bleachers, <br />however only one, Earl F. Anderson made a bid on the project. Obstacles <br />such as low head clear~ce, multi level floors, and limited space made it <br />impossible-for companies to come in with a standard model that they could <br />just install. Companies wishing to bid on the project had to spend some time <br />considering all the obstacles when designing the bleachers, companies <br />without strong engineering could have found it difficult to proceed with the <br />project. <br /> <br />I have. checked several references for Earl F. Anderson and have found them <br />to be well respected. I also have checked references on Aluminum Seating, <br />which will be manufacturing the bleachers and have also found them to be a <br />respectable company as well. <br /> <br />The insulation of the bleachers is projected to take nine to ten weeks, thus <br />putting completion date around the middle of November. Games for the High <br />School Boys begin late November so it is important that a decision be made. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The preliminary plans that I have reviewed with the company representative <br />comply with the Uniformed Building Code of 1997 as well as the Minnesota <br />amendments for 2001. Cliff Skogstad, City Building Official, and myself will <br />be monitoring the construction of the bleachers making sure all codes are met. <br />
