ITEM NO. 1 - Change Order for Police Facility.
The Council discussed changing the type of roofing material
on the new police facility located on Chitwood Street from
metal to composition shingles to save approximatley $22,000
dollars.
Motion was made by Bill Abbott, seconded by Mark Wright, to
change the roof from metal to a composition roof, Timberline
or equal and 360 pound/square material. Motion carried
unanimously.
Chief David Geeslin requested a change order to put in 10
additional electrical outlets, prewire, set up, to be capped
off until they are needed in the future. The electrician
charges $35.00 per drop or $350.00 total.
Chief Geeslin also requested additional funds to move the
radio equipment and antenna.
The actual move of the equipment is $3,644 labor. The cost
of $1,864 for the hardware to increase the tower from the
present height to a height of 80 feet. The labor is $4,133,
a total of $9,641 which is $2,641 more than what was budgeted.
The antenna was projected to be located at the rear of the
building and it is actually going to the front of the building
on a island which adds 640 feet of cable and a price of
$2,300 in addition to the $9,641. The primary reason for the
move of the antenna is due to the structure setting on the
building line and the antenna would be located between the
building and the road right-of-way. The price is approximately
$5,000 more for the radio equipment and tower. The tower price
has changed three times. An 80' tower total cost is $6,000,
a 100' new tower total is $10,458 and an 80' tower upgraded
to 100' is $8,207. Chief Geeslin requested a change to budget
for an additional $2,641 to make the move to upgrade to the
80' tower and make the move from the present police department
