apparat[zs by two feet for a total of six feet; we will have about nine feet between the vehicles. <br />We had a unisex shower - they suggested we were better off to go with separate showers. We <br />thought it was appropriate to keep part of this building open for the public use but to have the <br />ability to lock some areas away from the public so we will have a public area and a non-public <br />area. We have one conference room that will seat 12 people and a smaller one. From our <br />original proposal, we are looking at about 10,000. We narrowed it down about 600 feet and are <br />not losing any effective space. The upper floor - If we use it for anything other than equipment <br />we would have to have an elevator and that would add about $170,000 onto our costs. Chief <br />Kapler stated that the plans comply with ADA requirements. The only thing not wheelchair <br />accessible would be the second floor. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec asked where the cots would be should an emergency arise and some of the <br />Department has to stay at the station. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that we could utilize most any space for that in the case of an emergency. <br /> <br />Jim Way asked about water. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that we would rough it in to be able to accept sewer and water. We talked <br />about putting in a high volume well and/or tank. We will deal with going to #116 for now - that <br />is the most inexpensive way to go. Northfork has an irrigation well and they are okay with us <br />putting a fill site on the golf course. <br /> <br />A1 Pearson inquired how long it takes to fill a tanker to which Chief Kapler replied 1 and ½ <br />minutes to fill a 3,000 gallon tanker. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec asked about room for expansion - for a trailer and boat for water rescue, for <br />example. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that another bay could be added to the north. This allows for an expansion if <br />necessary. <br /> <br />Al Pearson asked how far back from Armstrong is the building to which Chief Kapler responded <br />the minimum setback is about 100 feet. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec asked about maintenance to which Chief Kapler stated we want to make it as easy <br />as possible. On this project, as a group, we will take on the planting ourselves. That will <br />eliminate about $150,000. <br /> <br />Jim Way asked what happens when this station is done - do you vacate your present area. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that the facility here on the City Hall campus is still considered the nucleus. <br />Most of the training will probably take place at the new fire station. <br /> <br />Jim Way mentioned the need for space to expand in City Hall and asked if the current station <br />space could be utilized. <br /> <br />Public Safety Board - September 9, 1999 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
