Assistant Public Works Director Olson explained the PVC liner is basically a poly liner that will <br />have posts penetrating though. Any jostling could cause a leak, which would become expensive <br />to repair. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated there should be an agreement that the City will have no liability for issues <br />such as the pilings sinking or the patio floor cracking. <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Olson replied a certificate of liability is required for the <br />encroachment and this item should be included in that agreement. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Kapler stressed that the certificate of liability should follow the property. <br /> <br />Acting Chairperson Cook indicated RTC should be informed that there are new liners available <br />with bentonite and geotextile. The cost difference is not very much for this type of liner. The <br />liner has the ability to be resealed and it is very difficult to cause damage to the liner. He noted <br />this will be a very expensive patio, and RTC may want to utilize this liner at another 20 percent in <br />cost if it can save the patio. <br /> <br />Councilmember Olson asked who will be responsible if the poly liner needs to be replaced. <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Olson replied RTC would be responsible for the liner. He <br />explained the pond will function regardless of whether there is water in it or not, the liner is being <br />put in for the aesthetics. If the liner were to fail and RTC wanted the aesthetics they would need <br />to fix it. <br /> <br />Motion by Mayor Gamec, seconded by Councilmember Olson, to authorize staff to develop the <br />maintenance agreement as outlined above, including a statement in the certificate of liability <br />regarding the City not having any liability for issues such as pilings sinking or the patio floor <br />cracking. The agreement should be reviewed by the City Attorney then forwarded to the full <br />Council for approval. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Acting Chairperson Cook, Mayor Gamec and Councilmember <br />Olson. Voting No: None. Absent: Chairperson Elvig. <br /> <br />Case #6: Consider Contract Revision to LSA Design <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Olson explained the scope of services for LSA Design that was <br />approved last year assumed that the first phase of the parking ramp will only include 460 cars. After <br />recently changing the first phase of the parking ramp to include the fourth level and up to 600 stalls, <br />there is also a need to increase the scope of services for design services. It should be noted that this <br />proposal was included in the costs for the design in the feasibility study and is not unanticipated. <br />Additionally, there are a few items that LSA has been working on with staff, and LSA has provided a <br />revised proposal to accomplish all of these items. It is Staff's intent to bring this back to the City <br />Council for ratification at the next regularly scheduled City Council meeting. He indicated the initial <br />contract amount was at $565,000. The revised contract amount is a total of $703,000. <br /> <br />Public Works Committee/March 15, 2005 <br /> Page 8 of 11 <br /> <br /> <br />
