ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL APRIL 29, 20137 <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> stated Bolton & Menk reviewed the work history of the <br />contractor noting they had recently completed the Shoreview water tower and came highly <br />recommended. <br /> <br />Councilmember Werner <br /> questioned if the tower had enough space for three City logos and <br />asked for the size of the logos. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> indicated he had the contract bid for up to three logos and stated <br />the Council could proceed with one, two or three logos. He noted there was enough space on the <br />million gallon tower for three logos. He noted he would have to report back to the Council with <br />the potential size of the logo. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant <br /> inquired how many logos most cities had on their water towers. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> stated one or two logos were placed on typical water towers. He <br />stated if the Council opted to proceed with only two logos there would be a $4,000 savings in the <br />contract. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant <br /> requested comment from the Council regarding the color of the water tower. <br /> <br />Councilmember Werner <br />was in favor of painting the water tower white. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden <br /> suggested the tower remain the same color. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes <br /> recommended both water towers in the City be the same tan color. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant <br /> agreed and stated he would like to see the two towers in the City be uniform in <br />color. He was hesitant to paint the tower white as this would show rust and dirt. He commented <br />that two logos would be sufficient. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung <br /> asked if there would be an additional expense for choosing tan paint. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> explained this would not be an additional expense if the Council <br />selected a standard tan color from the paint supplier. He anticipated that the color would be close <br />to the north tower, but may not be exact. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung <br /> supported the tan color scheme to create consistency. He suggested <br />the tower have two logos. <br /> <br />The Council consensus was to have two logos on the water tower. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> stated he would report back to the Council on the tan paint <br />colors, along with the logo design prior to having any of the work completed. <br /> <br />MOTION: Mayor Grant moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to adopt <br />Resolution 2013-022, Awarding the South Water Tower Rehabilitation <br />
