ti will refuse to sign or they will come back for additional compensation. We went in as a team with Da.n as our leader and will sign with Dan or with the County with Dan's blessing. Dan felt the situation not due to Ra.ndy or RG. The issue is with counsel and if their comments are valid; they have raised an issue. It's appropriate to have all team members together. It affects me and us as a group. Randy stated contractual relationship is not in dispute, the question is whether compensation is commensurate with level of duties. We are relying on attorneys in Portla.nd with sources of one set of facts as to what the compensation should be. Is there something out there to justify what compensation should be? Dan's fee has not changed from day one. Kim added counsel's findings seem to be based on a regular construction manager's position, which doesn't come close to what Dan does. Randy and RG don't dispute what's being said. Action: Provide us with evidence to support what he is doing. We have to justify compensation as undervalued or make changes to agreement to change compensation. Kim will check into recent experiences that could help Dan with his meeting on Monday. RG inquired about using value engineering projects. Dan recommended that the 5"` floor go away so the azchitect and contractor can stay on track. May 1 is close. My concem is to keep project going and keeping teazn up to speed about issues. Randy reiterated there is no intent to leave Dan out of the loop. RG added our major concern is that the project is moving ahead with no doubts. We have the dollars to pay contracts and we will pay them. Discussion returned to adding 5'~ floor. Leonazd indicated there would be little fmancial difference in the capacity of columns to carry an additional load from the 5'~ story a.nd would cost appro~umately $7,000. It was decided not to continue with a 5~' floor at this time. Randy had questions for Pence/Kelly and Arbuckle Costic Architects: When will the gmp be ready and when can we have working drawings available? Dave said the gmp would be ready by July 15 (phase gmp only). Leonazd said October/November for shell of building. When parking structure is done in May, azchitectural features still will be worked on. Leonard is working on set of drawings to be ready by end of May so Pence/Kelly can work on gmp. There is a real need for having working designs available for financial reasons Meeting adjourned. Environmental Issues (Dan and Randy present)
