Approval - Construction Change Directive No. 3 - Relocation of Fire Sprinkler Riser/Kenai Congregate Housing Project/$5,600.07, NOTtONi Councilwoman Swarner MOVED for adoption of Change order No. 3 and Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion for discussion. Measles asked if this is another design error. Kornelis stated thatafter the project was bid, the contractor went to the elevator people with the specific elevator that they wanted to install in the building and the elevator people said that more space would be needed for the equipment for this particular elevator. The only way to get additional room needed, was to take'the area right next to it which was where the fire sprinkler riser was designated to be placed. The riser needed to be relocated to an area under the.stairs. Kornelis, stated that he did not believe it was a design error as much it was trying to accommodate the elevator equipment people for their equipment chosen to be placed in the building. Measles asked if a different elevator was chosen than what was in the original design. Kornelis stated that the choice of elevators was somewhat left open because of the laws allowing for a.designated elevator or equal. The elevator company whioh..is providing the elevator, equipment, was found to be an equal.. Kornelis stated that. the need for thie'changs in.the directive could be a combination of bobs, design error and more time could have been:spent to investigate the space requirement. Kornelia added that.the contractor Is not at all'.at fault. Measles stated that he wass.more concerned about turning to0.the architect to recover the cost of this changre,. Kornelis stated that he is.in the middle of negotiations with the architect*. • KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY APRIL 15, 1992 PAGE 13 Kornelis reminded Council that the architect is requesting additional funds. The architect was to be here tonight to present their case to the Council, but the principal, who was to make the presentation, was not able to make the meeting. They will be attending the May 6, 1992 meeting. AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION: Councilman Smalley requested to make a friendly amendment to include the comment "no -to -exceed amounts." Swarner agreed to the amendment. Councilman Walker asked Kornelis if the elevator that was chosen was substantially less expensive. Kornelis stated that he did not know the specifics in regard to the elevators. Walker asked if the elevator included in the bid had been used, would the change be required. If not, he would not support the change. Kornelis stated he did not know the answer to that question. Kornelis added that this work must be done in order that the work continue. The mechanical workers are being held up. MOTION: Councilman Walker MOVED to table this item until answers are found to these questions. (Walker added that he believes the City is taking the brunt for $5,000 to a contractors change to save his some money.) VOTES Smalley: No Williams: No Walker: Yes Swarner: No Monfor: No Measles: No McComsey: Absent MOTION FAILED. Smalley stated he voted no because he felt the contractor was not at fault, at this time, and the questions voiced can still be investigated by Kornelis. Williams stated that he believed this to be an architect error. An item this major should have been investigated and understood as it is an integral part of the building. The Council will have to have a major discussion as to • whether they want to continue the architect's services as a construction manager or fire them. Williams added that it isa major dilemma which can be stopped by firing the architect. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY APRIL 15, 1992 PAGE 14 Everything completed thus far can be laid ,to.the responsibility of the architect and inspection team. A new architect/inspector would be responsible for items from that period on. Whatever happens, there will have to be a third party mediator. This will probably have major ramifications to the budget and concerns to the City. Kornelis should be specific as.to these items when dealing with the architect. Kornelis stated that he is doing that. He is reviewing items with the architect and they are noting which are whose fault and whether the contractor is causing extra time. Kornelis stated that Council may wish to discuss with the architect and contractor in a work session. Walker stated that he still has a strong question of whether the 16 change needing to be done was a matter of choice of the contractor to make the change. If change. if it was a necessity,, he willsupport not support the Y. the change. Measles stated he understood Walker's concern. However, the work cannot be stopped for $50,000. Measles stated he wanted the minutes to reflect that if the change is approved, it is approved with the reservations of rights for recovery from the responsible parties. This does not need to be part of the motion, as it is the right of the City. Kornelis stated that this is a Constructive Change Directive and is different than a change order. The directive tells the contractor to do the work and that at a later time, the actual cost will be determined. The contractor has given a price.and the City (if approved) is saying to do the work and latex the cost will be determined. The cost will not exceed the amount stated on the directive. If it,is found that the work should -not have cost the City anything, then the change order would not go into effect as.a result of the directive. Kornelis added that the City is directing the contractor to relocate the fire sprinkler room from the location that was ors the drawings to under the stairs. Williams asked how the work would be coordinated with the architect. Kornelis stated that the directive is signed'by the architect. The work has to be done. Williams stated that it is his understanding that Livingston -Slone (the architect) and the City of Kenai are' KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY APRIL 151 1992 PAGE 15 issuing the directive to Gaston & Associates (the contractor) and that the City and architect are taking mutual responsibility to. do the work so the work is not stopped. Correct. Williams asked if there is anything in writing with the architect that the City may not consider this work the responsibility of the City. Kornelis stated it will be fought out later. Williams asked if he would issue a letter with the directive, disallowing responsibility with the City or that the City may decide at a later date that it is not responsible for the work. The letter would put the architect on notice. Kornelis stated he could do that. Williams asked if there were objections to the motion. There were objections. o0T8a Smalley: Yes Williams: Yes Walker: No Swarner: Yes Monfor: Yes Measles:' Yes Mccomsey: Absent MOTION GASSED.

NOTIONS Councilman Measles MOVED for approval of Construction Change Directive No. 4, Congregate Housing Project and Councilwoman Swarner BECONDBD the motion. Measles stated that this appears to be without a doubt, a mistake in the design. The architect should know the Uniform Building Code for public buildings. Walker noted that earlier a change order was brought before. Council due to additional sheet rock needing to be added. This item appears to be the same thing. Walker asked if the City shares in the responsibility for this item and whether the plans 40 were reviewed by the building official. Williams stated that he had a discussion regarding this earlier in the day. Williams • KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY APRIL 15, 1992 PAGE 16 stated he believes the City has some responsibility as Building Official Hackney is the review officer for the State Fire Marshall. Kornelis stated that the fire sprinkler system was not designed by the architect, but by a sprinkler design company. The project specifications stated that the contractor was to hire the designer for it. The specifications only referred to Model G sprinkler heads. There was nothing for the City to review until after the job was bid. Kornelis added that when they did receive the design, after the bid, Hackney and Chief Burnett jointly wrote a letter which stated that residential and heads are required. The contractor used a quick response for the Mod heads. The reason for the construction changedirectivewasel G because they questioned the cost of the difference between the quick response and commercial heads. Kornelis stated that he does not know who to blame at this time, but the work must be done. Walker asked who put in the Model G heads. Kornelis stated the architect did, but it was stated that the design had to meet the codes. AMBNDM TO NOTIONS Smalley requested that a friendly amendment be made to the motion adding "not to exceed," and the item be added to the list for review. Smalley added, that if the investigation show clearly that someone else was at fault, the cost should be recovered. Kornelis stated at this time on the crawl space much-" Kornelis being placed. that City staff is doing much of the inspection that job. Williams asked if the installation in had been resolved. Kornelis stated, 11pretty added that the paper barrier and sheet rock was Williams stated his concern regarding the placement of the sprinkler system.

These are the lots previously leased to Grace Drilling, The FAA must review the appraisal and concur with the value before the property can be released from the Airport Land System. This property is where the courthouse will be built. The courthouse will require the use of three of the lots (Lots 10-12). Howard requested direction from Council regarding Lot 13. Does the Council wish to purchase Lot 13 from the Airport Land System and retain it for courthouse facility expansion or other public use? Student Councilman Monfor stated he felt it was a good time to purchase the property. Student City Manager Sorenson stated that he thought the property should remain on the market. Student ... Councilman Parker stated that if the City does not purchase the property, and later wishes to, there may be an increase in the cost. Howard stated that the land would need to be appraised again at that time. The appraisal is good for six months. The cost to the City is fair market value.

The provision puts the City in a dilemma. The State will be receiving the first $50 million from the Exxon spill settlement. There is a bill introduced in the Legislature that will appropriate that money to buy lands affected by the oil spill. There is an opportunity to convert the islands upstream in the Kenai River into cash.. The property would then be.used by the State Parks Department for parks on the other side of the river. Williams stated the City has an opportunity to sell that property and the monies received would . be placed in the general trust fund. That money would not be able to be used and that.takes away the incentive. Brighton stated that the trust fund is a.protection. Brighton was leery of anticipating the monies received from the spill will be put into a fund. Measles agreed that the fund. -needs to stay. as it is.

Measles added that the purchase of • Kffi1AI CITY COUNCIL MSETING AdINUTBS STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY APRIL 15, 1992 PAGE 34 • • r land on the River has nothing to do with rehabilitation from the oil spill. Measles added that the State does not need more land. Williams stated that he will keep abreast of the bill. Williams suggested that if the bill is passed, the City should keep open to transferring of the islands.' Measles stated that he did not mind "keeping the door open," but.felt that. if the City sold the islands to the State, the City would be giving up the City's hold. on the River. s The meeting adjourned at 10:15 p.m. Minutes transcribed and submitted by: s?o w my couri L CLam
