Functionally <br />Committee Perspec�i�e and Decision <br />Fire Station #1 <br />The committee, after an extensive review of the decision matrix items, much discussion, and <br />assistance of the architectural service firm Buetow and Associates Inc., has the following <br />perspective: <br />The building has exceeded its useful life and po5es health concerns to firefighters due to the <br />significant mold situation. The committee felt the building did not meet any of the needed <br />space required for current or future service needs. The roof would need full replacement down <br />to its structural components. The basement has significant water issues that have gone <br />unsolved for decades, leading to high moisture content within the building. The generator, <br />which is more than thirty years old, is no longer #unctioning. The builciing has structural cracks, <br />both interior and exterior. It doe5 not meet most of the major compliance standards. <br />Mechanical and electrical systems are dated and are at the end of there life cycle. The building <br />was built prior to energy requirements, thus has no insulation, leading to higher than average <br />energy costs. Concrete floors are cracked and in need of replacement. The doors and windows <br />are old and in need of replacement. <br />The committee worked with a local architectural ser�ices company to review and make <br />recommendations regarding the potential for remodel. The consensus was the building had <br />served its useful life and was not a candidate for remodel. <br />0 <br />
