The original concept was shown. <br />Jabbour was informed that the original architectural drawing was done by Bonestroo. <br />Gappa reviewed the changes to the structure. <br />Goetten asked why the cost was so high. Gappa said it was due to the roof structure. • <br />Moorse said the low bid was from Flag Builders for $19,480. <br />Jabbour asked if the construction would be done this year. Gappa said the majority of <br />the structure would be erected this year, namely the roof structure and columns. The <br />finishing work would occur in the spring. <br />Jabbour inquired of the foundation. Gappa said the type of footings was changed to a <br />drilled type, which reduced the cost. Goetten said the cost is still expensive. Gappa said <br />the original low bid was over $30,000. Changes included footings and removal of brick. <br />Jabbour noted that the door was located on the wrong side of the building for snow and <br />ice accumulation. Gappa said that fact was reviewed but change in door location was <br />not practical with the layout of the interior. <br />Kelley moved, Peterson seconded, to award the Public Works Building entrance canopy <br />project to the low bidder, Flag Builders, in the amount of $19,480; that the project <br />contract costs are to be paid from the Building Outlay Fund; and that the 1997 budget <br />appropriation is amended in the ainount of $19,480. <br />30 <br />
