MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH:
Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
Scott Curtin, Public Works Director
DATE:
December 13, 2022
SUBJECT:
Ordinance No. 3329-2022 — Visitor Center Roof Replacement
The purpose of this Ordinance is to provide supplemental funding to this project to allow the
Department to move forward with bidding. The original project estimate was based on square
foot costs of asphalt shingle removal and replacement. As the construction documents were
developed additional items were identified that are appropriate to be addressed at this time
including various flashings and roof drains, which impacted costs. High oil prices have also
contributed to the cost of asphalt shingles, along with the supply chain issues which continue to
be more common the last few years.
As stated in the Ordinance the project was originally bid in June 2022. Material costs were high
and contractors were busy at that time. Our intentions are to rebid for a construction start earlier
in the season, in a more competitive environment.
This project is essential to protect the facility. Completion of the Work is expected to safeguard
the roof system for another 25 years. Completion of this Work at this time is in the best interest
of the City. Council's support is respectfully requested.
