Agenda Item A The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the construction phase of the Ramsey Municipal Center. Mayor Cox opened the discussion by indicating to Mr. Boarman and Mr. Wilberding that in general terms he was pleased with the construction of the Ramsey Municipal Center and that it was a very nice facility. Mayor Cox also indicated however, that the purpose of this meeting was to indicate some areas of the building of which the City was not pleased and felt that Mr. Boarman and representatives of Setter, Leach and Lindstrom should be made aware of these. Itemizing some of the problems Mr. Cox indicated the sewage lift system, bathroom rough-in in Room #9, absence of a softener for the water system and the exposed duct work. Mayor Cox indicated that the duct work for the building had been discussed and it was indicated that there would be exposed duct, however, the Council was unaware of the magnitude and size of the duct and that the final result certainly was not the intent of the City Council. Mr. Jack Boarman responded by saying that he was also sur- prised that there was no softener for the water system pro- vided in the mechanical plans and he would investigate. He
