'ity of <br /> <br />ITEM 5.2. <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council 0 <br />Cliff Skogstad, Building Official <br /> <br />March 28, 1996 <br /> <br />Re-roofing the Elk River Library <br /> <br />As per your request from the March 18, 1996, council meeting, requesting <br />me to pursue bids for either repairing or re-roofing the Elk River Library, I <br />have found from my inspection on March 26, 1996, that the older roof on the <br />library will need a new roof system. From these findings, I contacted Mr. <br />Fred King from Inspec Inc., requesting their services for this project. Inspec <br />Inc. was also used on the Elk River Fire Department re-roofing project. I <br />found their services to be very valuable in the bidding process and <br />construction specifications of the re-roofing project for the Fire Station. <br /> <br />Attached to this memo, is Inspec's proposal for services requested. Under <br />"Proposed Fee's" you will see that the first two items are site verification and <br />construction documents. This would cover all signed engineered drawings for <br />the design of the new roof system and assisting us in the bidding process. <br />The proposed cost for these two items is approximately $4,000. The <br />remainder of Inspec's proposal is for construction observation, testing of the <br />new roof, and reimbursable items. These prices are undetermined at this <br />time until after the bidding process is complete, being the proposal is a <br />percentage of the bid price. Previously, when we used Inspec's services for <br />the Fire Station this amount totaled $840. If in the process of testing the old <br />system we feel their may be a possibility of asbestos, there will have to be an <br />additional asbestos test. The price for this test is not included in the <br />proposal. And again, this test was done on the Fire Department project for <br />approximately $165. The total price of all the fees and testing for this project <br />should not exceed $5,000. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Therefore, at this time I am requesting approval to use Inspec Inc. in the <br />library re-roofing project as outlined in their proposal. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at the City offices, or if you <br />wish I can attend Monday's meeting. <br /> <br /> s:Xb&z\cliffXcc3-28.doc <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
