Mayor Pro Tem Hill called the Special Meeting to order at 7:05 P.M.
GARDNER, TRAYNOR, HILL, SAUL, MRS. PESICKA.
Mayor Pro Tem Hill stated the purpose of the Special Meeting was to
award the bid on the construction of the new City Hall. He stated
Tom Emrich, Mithun Associates, would explain the alternates on the
bid. Mr. Emrich stated Roxbury Construction had submitted the low
bid of $1,397,670. He said the alternate bids included Alternate 1
which offered a substitution of asphalt shingle roof rather than the
cedar shingles; Alternate 2 offered asbestos board material; Alternate
3 deleted the off -site sanitary sewer; Alternate 3 deleted the off -site
sanitary sewer; Alternate 4 provided for extension of smoke detection
system in the amount of $6,310. He said it was their recommendation
to accept Alternate 4. It is in line with what the Fire Department had
requested for the building. Al Pieper, Building Inspector, said he
would like to see deletion of the wood shingles. He said he felt the
cost of the cedar shingles was too much, wood leaks faster than the
asphalt shingles, and they are a greater fire hazard. Discussion
continued about the cost of cedar shingles versus asphalt shingles.
MOVED BY TRAYNOR, SECONDED BY SAUL, THAT THE LOW BID SUBMITTED BY
ROXBURY CONSTRUCTION BE ACCEPTED AND THE ARCHITECT'S RECOMMENDATION
BE ACCEPTED WITH RESPECT TO ALTERNATES 1, 2, 3, AND 4.
Mr. Emrich stated his recommendation is not to accept Alternates
1, 2, and 3, but accept Alternate 4.

on the sale of the councilmatic bonds to finance the construction of
