C. OPM Update

Gary Kaczmarek reported that the building foundation did not have any visible potentially hazardous coating on the 12 locations that were excavated.

 

D. Designer Update ( W & S )

Jeff Aberti provided an overall review. By taking the same/original program as the new program, the renovation needs additional space, therefore, the cost is higher. Revision 1 is from a new construction perspective and feedback from the last meeting. Revision 2 is from aiming to meet a target budget of $18MM by combining and cutting space. Additional canopy and mezzanine space has been added for additional storage.

Discussion ensued.

 

Peter Lukes offered that IIF money can be used for cleaning, demo, hazmat removal, OPM costs and costs incurred with Weston and Sampson if the committee endorses revision 2.

 

Chris Lucchesi made a motion for the committee to remove renovation from consideration for the DPW facility. Jack Cross seconded the motion. Vote approved by majority vote.

 

Chris Lucchesi made a motion that based upon the info provided by Weston and Sampson that the committee pursue the revision 2, the new construction option for the DPW Facility as a starting point.
