Pursuant to due call and notice thereof the City Council of the City of Centerville held working session on Thursday, February 13, 1992 at the City Hall regarding the proposed municipal building and the Centerville Goals and Priorities. Municipal Buildin~ Jeff Carlstrom of the Carlstrom Group was available at the meeting to discuss the proposed municipal building with the City Council. Mr. Carlstrom submitted a "Building Task Force Report" to the City Council regarding the costs of remodeling the existing facilities versus the cost to build new facilities. A copy of this Report is on file with the Clerk/Administrator. Mr. Carlstrom appeared to be of the opinion that a fire station and a city facility allowing for a shared training room/city meeting room would cost approximately $465,000.00. He advised that the cost per square foot for the fire station would be approximately $65.00 and the square foot costs for a City Hall facility would be approximately $61.00 per square foot. II Council member Burgstahler noted with a lease/purchase agreement $400,000.00 to $500,000.00 could be borrowed on a ten year lease at approximately 6% which would result in $67,000.00 in annual payments. Council member Wilharber noted that the Report estimates that the remodeling of the existing City Hall would cost approximately $78,000.00. If new City Hall facilities are estimated to be 1,200 square feet at $61.00 per square foot the cost for the new building $73,200.00. Mr. Wilharber also noted that the economics of a separate facility for the City and the Fire Department training room at this time is not feasible. Council member Burgstahler noted that there appears to be no real argument not to construct the City Hall facility at this time, considering the cost to remodel, the market as it is now and the financial repayment schedule. Council member Pelton suggested splitting the training room with a movable wall utilizing separate entrances and separate bathroom areas so that the room would meet as many needs as possible. Council member Dario and Mayor Buckbee expressed comfort with the project as proposed and with the option of a ten year lease. Motion by Burgstahler, second by Pelton to direct Jeff Carlstrom, Architect with the Carlstrom Group, Inc., to proceed with Plans and Specifications for the Fire Hall/Municipal Building of a Fire Hall of 6,900 square feet plus an additional 1,200 square feet for City Hall facilities; This shall follow the general concept on page 21 of the Jafi"afY ~J l~~l a1~y Hall/'1f@ ~~a~1@n '@a~1~111~v and Prototype Design prepared for the Centerville City ~.-
