Item 6g
Mr. Petree explained the need to replace the skylights at Heritage Center, which are unable
to be repaired due to the age and condition of the panels. He explained that the original
skylights are approximately 30 years old. Because they are deteriorated due to sun and
climate exposure, water is allowed to infiltrate into the facility.
Council Member Anderson stated he would not support this $96,900 expenditure without
first looking into alternative solutions, pointing out that the 2014 budget provided $67,000
for this project. Mr. Petree stated staff will explore other alternatives with the assistance of
the structural consulting engineer, noting that additional costs for these services would be
incurred. The costs incurred, to date, by the consulting engineer is approximately $12,000.
Council Members Swecker and LaBeau also voiced concern with how much this bid exceeds
the original estimate, and they did not support awarding a contract with only one bid
