TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />Phil Hals, Street/Park Superintendent <br /> <br />October 23, 2002 <br /> <br />Completion of Mechanic Shop Improvements <br /> <br />During the winter of 2001/2002 we converted the west end of the public works building <br />from equipment storage to a first rate mechanic's shop. To complete the facility we <br />need to address health and safety issues regarding air quality, therefore I propose the <br />following: <br /> <br />· Installation of an automotive exhaust collection system <br />· Installation of a carbon monoxide and nitrous oxide sensors <br /> to be connected with the air exhaust system to automatically <br /> ventilate the shop and equipment storage bays when fumes reach <br /> a set level. <br />· Installation of two make up air furnaces to heat incoming make <br /> up air. <br />· Contingency fund <br />· TOTAL <br /> <br />$6,650.00 <br /> <br />4,000.00 <br /> <br /> 7,500.00 <br />1,850.00 <br />$2O,OOO.OO <br /> <br />City Council Action Requested: <br />Authorize the purchase and installation of an automotive exhaust collection system, <br />Carbon monoxide/nitrous oxide sensors, and two make up air furnaces. Funding would <br />be from equipment services general fund with the possibility of doing a budget <br />amendment at the end of the year if those line items come up short. <br /> <br />10-23-02 M&C SnowPIowPolicy. doc <br /> <br /> <br />
