" Council 'Me.mber `Torliatt asked if inspections had been done on every
street that had been repaired. She was concerned that temperatures
were too high to lay asphalt on days that she observed work being done.
She - wanted assurance that the product would last for the long term.
`
Public Facilities and Services. Director Ric k Skladzien answered that every
single street had been inspected. He stated that there are no
requirements or restrictions on paving during the heat of the day;
problems occur with laying asphalt'when temperatures are low.

C 100103' and Deferring the Project, Until' Sufficient Funding Becomes
Available. (Netter /Glose)
PUBLIC COMMENT
Stev Geney, North :Bay Construction,, stated that his company did not
want to see the bid rejected. He said th''ey had worked with the Airport
Commission) and had offered to bold the price on the bid until April 15,
2005. He said this would save the City fuel, materials, time, and labor costs
'by accepting this letter's offer.
Acting City Manager/Interim. Finance Director Netter responded that staff
would, like to see the.project continue but this lowest bid is well over the
$700,000 engineer's estimate and there were items not included in the
budget !that would raise the cosh. H.ei. said a consultant was hired and
recommended rejecting all bids, making' some design changes, and re-
bidding in the winter.
Council : Member Torliatt wanted to hear from the Chair of the Airport
Commission."
Council Member O'Brien, as liaison to
• the Airport" Commission, stated that
he did not-fully'support the consultant' s' recommendation to reject the bid
because if the City rebids next winter, and the bids come„ in. higher, the
consultant would not make up the - difference. He felt that a lot of
changes could be made to the project to save money and asked Tom
McCaw of the Airport Commission to explain.
Council Member Healy asked if the consul tant responded to Mr. Geney's
concernsabout material and subcontractor costs.
Vol. XX, Page 8 October.4, 2004
1
Mr. Netter explained that because, all the -bidders used the same
2
subcontractor for the.prefab buildings; the costs should be uniform but
a!
3
varied "because the. presentations were different. The consultant feels
4
strongly that the City would receive more bids during winter, and al"
5
feels that. the cost of steel is s'tabiliz'ing.
6
7
Council Member Healy.,asked :how long this• project could. be delayed to
8
still complete construction in the spring._
9
10
Mr., Geney replied that a 30 -day delay would be okay- and with the'
11
design ,used .it ,could be built through the winter because of the lime
1
treotment� He'said that using me 'hangar constructor is' a sign that
1 3
the company is the most competiti e
14
T issibn that there are over 1401
G
1b
o he� t n� list and the
people hang g y want to complete. the projecf
17'
as soon as possible and ge,t the` revenue `stream started. He said mth&.
18
Commission had ,looked at how to. modify the project to lower the cost.
19
They, didn't want to reduce the square, footage as that'would reduce the
„
20
revenue sfr,.eam. However„ the brick facing; requested- by the Pedestrian
21
and - Bicycle Advisory Co m- MI t;'tee on the end, walls of the buildings facing
22,
Sky Ranch Drive could be _eliminated as they would soon be .hidden, by
23
landscaping., On the future project list is a terminal building -The FAA,.will
24
grant the City, 95% of the cost of a terminal. The showers (also requested
25
by the PBAC) could be included in, the new: term inal.
26
27
He said' the! cost. of the permits carne to $500,000 with $300,000 for traffic
28
mitigation: °Het stated', that a' traffic- consultant had been paid for and
29
stated that there would be. no additional traffic. ,He said an`ofherissu,e was
30
that the- FAA, which governs airport operations, specifically precludes
31
diversion of revenues for non= airport.related_ benefit. He felt that if they "qre.
32
required to pay traffic mitigation'`as permit fees, this would violate the
33
FAA''s_regulations and prevent'the project from going forward. .
:34
,
35
Vice Mayor Moynihan fully supported eliminating the brick facade 'and.
36
Showers and. did not support' throwing out the '.bid. He wanted staff to
37
investigate eliminating portions to lower the costs and bring something
38
back`to Council.

on debt'
Counc'il,lMember'l ly would'like to award'the contract but was not sure
how to m forward procedurally: He asked the City Attorney for his
; opinion.
City Attorney "Rudnansky advised Council' - that if they were not going to
reject all••bids, they should allow staff to bring back an appropriate
