the county departments to be minimal. He has added SOOk to his budget for equipment and <br />furnishings. RG has some contingencies for move in. <br />~ ITEM 2: Architect U date <br />P <br />Design: Dan said that he wants to see the east wing back in the design. This design option <br />has not been looked at since we went to the 30ft span. There may be some cost efficiency in <br />adding footage here. <br />Dave will look at this to see if it will reduce the sf cost. Len suggested that this may be the time <br />to look at filling up the southeast corner. Design wise, it will make a lot of sense. There are a lot <br />of holes on the east side of the structure and the space is underutilized. This will define the edges <br />of the plaza and add a little bit of a pavilion to the lobby area. Dan has someone who wants to <br />lease part of this space. He has sent out four letters of intent for leasing the retail space. <br />There was discussion around the additional set of stairs, the elevator and the service hallway <br />Randy said that the county still has 23k sf more than it needs at this time. There was discussion <br />around how to analyze the cost of this space and how it effects the overall shell cost. <br />The design that has been discussed is a step back design, which does not include the roof garden. <br />Dan pointed out that we are still using a cost analysis from last November. He suggested that we <br />go out for bid with the current design, and then plug the roof garden back in. Current cost <br />estimates do not have the roof garden and the skylights. Dave said that it is cheaper to have the <br />~ space as shell than to build the roof garden. <br />There was discussion around putting a third floor on the Chemeketa wing. There may be some <br />cost savings there. The penthouse was taken away from the analysis before the numbers were <br />run. It has not been looked at since we went to a 30ft grid. <br />ACTION: Dave will consider the cost of inechanical for the penthouse and add it into his <br />numbers. <br />Water: There was discussion around the amount of water flowing through the site. Dan <br />has concerns around how we are going to deal with the water table. Len said that there are issues <br />around how we deal with this water and the rate of flow. It is important that we keep the water <br />flowing to the river. We can install pumps to keep the building dry by pumping up to the sewer <br />system, but the sewer systems may not be capable of handling the flow. We can create a <br />reservoir around the building to direct the water around the structure. Len said that we want to <br />accomplish this naturally, without having to pump. There was discussion about the rainy season <br />and the water table. 11 ft is the highest level during the rainy season. The water is always <br />moving toward the river. The soil below this site is porous and it drains well, but water is always <br />going to be an issue. <br />Structural Design: Meeting our June date is not a problem at this time. <br />~ Parking Structure: Randy reported that he has to go before the parking board next week. He <br />needs to give them a definite number of stalls. We are looking at 30 spaces for retail, 33 for <br />
