ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
PROPOSAL FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES-PARKVIEW VILLA ROOF PROJECTS
Nagel stated the HRA has until September 30, 2002 to spend the remaining 2000 Annual Plan
funds. Last month the HRA Board approved years 1-5 of a 20-year Capital Improvements Plan
completed by TKDA, which recognized that the North and South building roofs, need to be
replaced. The Board directed staff to obtain proposals to prepare plans and specifications
according to HUD regulations. Proposals were received from TKDA for $19,000, SEH
Company for $18,400 plus $1,600 per week for project management, RHA for $ 7, 600 and
INSPEC for $18, O00 plus $6, O00 for project management. Staff recommended Board approval
of the proposal from TKDA, as they are the lowest, responsible bid for the engineering services.
Fehst stated the City has had good experiences with RHA doing the Library, Murzyn Hall, and
City Hall. However, it did concern him that RHA has never done a HUD project.
Nawrocki wondered why we were getting proposals for building specs when his experience with
roofing companies is that they will draw up the specs, and why is Nagel stating replacement of
both roofs, when the original CIP from TKDA last month didn't indicate the need for total
replacement on both buildings. Nagel stated we would need to replace the South building's roof
in the next year or so, therefore, he had the proposals submitted that way.
Streetar stated that at the last meeting the Board made a motion per TKDA 's CIP of Parkview
Villa to replace of just the North, building roof and repair to the section between the North and
South buildings. The Boardmembers agreed this was the motion voted upon last month.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, to Approve the Bid from RHA Architects Inc. for
August 5, 2002 Special Meeting
