MOUND CITY COUNCIL MINUTF~
SPECIAL MEEWING
MINUTES - 5/6/97
MINUTES - MOUND CITY COUNCIL - MAY 6, 1997
The City Council of Mound, Hennepin County, Minnesota, met in regular session on Tuesday,
May 6, 1997, following the Reconvenexl Board of Review, in the Council Chambers at 5341
Maywood Road, in said City.
Those present were: Mayor gob Polston, Couneilmembers Andrea Ahrens, Mark I-Ianus, Liz
Jensen, and Leah Weycker. Also present were: City Manager Edward J. Shukle, Jr., City Clerk
Fran Clark, Bert Haglund from TSP/EOS, and the following interested citizen: Bill Hawks.
The Mayor opened the meeting and welcomed the people in attendance.
1.1
DISCUSSION RE: EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS FOR AN ANALYSIS OF THE
EXISTING WESTONKA COMMUNITY CENTER IN RELATION TO THE
POSSIBLE RENOVATION OF THE EXISTING COMMUNITY CENTER.
DISCUSSION RE: ACCEPTING A PROPOSAL FROM TSP/EOS AND E & V
CONSTRUCTION TO PERFORM THE ABOVE ANALYSIS OR SEEK REQUEST
FOR PROPOSALS (RFP'S) FROM ARCHITECTURAL FIRMS TO PERFORM
THE ANALYSIS.
The City Manager reported that at the Community Center Task Force Meeting last week with
Minnetrista and the School Bo~ard, proposals were reviewed from TSP/EOS and E & V
Construction. That discussion focused on doing an analysis of the 1938 building along with
other property that is there. This would involve having TSP/EOS meet with the various users
of the property to determine space needs and an evaluation of what the facility needs in order
to make it more useable. E & V Construction's basic purpose was to follow-up that work with
a cost estimate. Putting those two things together would provide the information needed for the
renovation of the property. The consensus was that since the City of Mound is driving this
renovation, it should be responsible for the expenditure of funds for the analysis. The costs
proposed by the two firms is just over $10,000 which would be recovered in the issuance of
bonds, if the project proceeds.
The City Manager then asked if the Council wants to pay for the analysis and, if so, should the
study be accepted as proposed here or would the Council like to seek alternative proposals
through the RFP process? After discussion the Council decided Mound would put up the funds
for the analysis.
Mayor Polston reported that at the meeting last week, the members of the Task Force that were
there identified the uses that this community center would house and the list in TSP/EOS'
proposal is the result of what the committee felt would be housed in the community center.
The analysis is to determine the following:
1. If the whole complex can be renovated and what it would cost and is there a point where
it would not be economically feasible to salvage parts of it or to try to renovate it.
They are two separate proposals with not to exceed prices. There would be continuity because
both of these firms have been working with the school district for the last several years. They
were both asked to present a proposal for their respective parts.

MOUND CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
SPECIAL MEETING
MINUTES -
The Council discussed the current uses as well as future uses and the square footage needed for
those uses.
Mr. Bert Haglund, from TSP/EOS, was present.
They also discussed the following, with Mr. Haglund:
the mechanical systems
air quality issues
roofing problems
square footage
The School District's concern is timing. Being able to complete an analysis within a reasonable
period of time. With an RFP, it would take putting the RFP together, soliciting the proposals,
interviewing the candidates and then selecting a firm. The estimate for an analysis would then
be 60 to 90 days down the road from there, which would put it end of summer or early fall.
MOTION made by Jensen, seconded by Ahrens that the City of Mound enter into
a contract with TSP/EOS to conduct an analysis of the Community Center under the
direction of the Task Force, as proposed in the proposal from TSP/EOS, dated April
29, 1997, not to exceed $7,500. The cost for this to be recovered by the City of
Mound if the project proceeds. The vote was unanimously in favor. Motion
carried.
The Council did not act on the cost estimate proposal, at this time. They will wait until the
analysis is performed.
Councilmember Ahrens asked to be excused at 8:10 P.M.
MOTION made by Hanus, seconded by Jensen to adjourn at 8:15 P.M.
was unanimously in favor. Motion carried.
