until parking structure situation has been defined more clearly. Additional items were discussed <br />that could be incorporated into streetscape budget. The need for holding tanks or storage in <br />~ piping for roof run off will be explored in ne}rt Thursday's mechanical meeting by Byron, Len <br />and Dave. Wells for trees and waterproofmg were other items considered. Dave will need more <br />detail in preparing this budget. R.G. expressed concerns that firmer budget numbers will be <br />helpful when they meet with city. Project being over budget is major economic decision for <br />county. Parking board wants more parking made available in the downtown area. NIlVIDC is <br />assuming that urban renewal funds will pay mazginal costs. Will the city pay anymore with <br />either scenario of going under the sidewalk or not? Yes, but we don't know what the city will <br />pay for. We will push to get what we can and we a.re not afraid to ask. We need to have definite <br />costs and will try to stay at the $2 million allocated. Let's put everything in and have it itemized. <br />Goal date for Dave to provide itemized numbers will be ne~ Thursday, July 17. <br />Regarding the use of urban renewal dollars for sewer system improvements, if we are not <br />proceeding with P2, do we need to address this issue? The upsizing of the sewer system <br />doesn't increase capacity of system or improve our ability to get water off site. With the P1 <br />structure, we don't have the water situation, why deal with it. We would only be looking at <br />runoff. Let's go no further with this item. <br />Update on Structural Meeting this morning <br />Dave held productive meeting with Mike on how to coordinate the job process with design. They <br />have dealt with drainage/run off issue and will report back ne~rt Thursday. Using culverts rather <br />than tanks in building, solves the problem well and cheaply for roof water run off. <br />Other issues that came from the pre-application meeting with city's building department, fire <br />marshal and public works. There are some fire code exiting issues with main building and <br />exiting stairwells. There are a number of ways to solve these issues without real impact. <br />Another issue was the 4`~ floor roof garden can not be treated as separate occupancy. There will <br />be a request coming from city for Courthouse Square to provide written compliance with city <br />codes regarding occupancy. For example, not having a"party" on the roof garden while hearing <br />room is at capacity and office occupancy is also at maximum. The roof gazden is still up in the <br />air as far as a concrete definition of use of space. Written compliance would not present a <br />problem. <br />The issue of roof grades with good positive drainage rather than flat roofs will be implemented. <br />Process will entail setting forms and pulling cables to get an angle on the grade, allowing the flow <br />to move towards the center so no pooling of water on any surface of the roof will occur. <br />Leonard asked if Mike had forwarded information regarding post tension buildings that had been <br />requested. Nothing had been received. Leonard will follow up again. 1~IlVIDC is looking at <br />cable tagging system for identification underneath with plastic identifiers. Another option would <br />be to utilize sleeves. Discussions ensued regarding use of sleeves and effects on electrical <br />connections in floor areas with regard to TI's and furniture layouts. There is a device (James "R" <br />Meter) available for about $3,500 to locate tendons. It is especially good for post tension cables <br />and works with rebar only at certain depths. This item will get further study at next week's <br />mechanical meeting. Pence/Kelly asked for determination of cut off between shell and TI's as far <br />as electrical panels are concemed. Craig will provide a typical spec on mechanical and electrical <br />Page 5 of 10 <br />
