want to look at one monitoring system for the central fire system, not individual sys lems for the county, transit and private space. Randy asked if the annual Risk Management test of the building will apply to a11 tenants, including private. Dan responded that it would, but any other a1 systems will be up to the tenants (county or transit). Randy and RG asked for a maglock card syste , as access to their office space. There was discussion around tying into the main system that is moni red and maintained by Facilities Management, which was purchased with the intention of expanding o the Franklin and Senator Buildings. The fle~bility and potential use of the system was discussed d it was suggested that it could also be used in the private space. ACTION: Randy will check on the maximum number of users on Facil~ties Management's system, and if the installer (original) is available. , Dan sta.ted that a service entry should be considered, with an intercom or bell system for after hour use, as part of the entry system. RG and Randy stated that, while this is not app opriate, Facilities Management could program the system to leave a portion or section available, d the department scheduling after hour use would be accountable for maintaining cost and security. ', Sprinkler Systems: Dan asked if anyone had any issues around the sprinkler system~ He reported that he has contacted a firm out of Portland to look at u~sunng the entire building, in the c~ndominium form. Randy explained that the county is self-insured. RG asked if transit could paztijcipate in the self- inswance policy. ACTION: For the time being, Dan will arrange to insure the building under umbrella policy ~ and will look at issues that may need to be considered in the pric~~. Soundproofing: Curt described poured concrete, 5'h inches in depth, with carp ~' g, for flooring. Randy asked if the main entra.nce will be tile, with carpeting for reception and inte or azeas. Decision: Tile was agreed upon for the high traffic areas, with carpeting for rec tion and interior space. ~ ~ HV/AC Systems: Dan asked if there had been any discussion azound if the HVAC ystems would be on the rooftop. RG asked that we address HVAC with the most economical system and ould we attempt to sepazately meter the utilities, or have an overall system. There was discussion ound individual thermo controls and the fact that the hows of operation vary and this might dictate ow the system is used. Dan stated that the system can be set up with individual cubes, but explained at there are two issues for individual monitoring systems: costing and control. Control addresses b ancing system to provide consistent temperatures between areas with exposure. The alternative is in ividual controls. Randy stated that it is his assumption that the systems will accommodate sun exposu e. Curt gave the example of the DOJ building, which has five (5) zones on the roof and cost $50,00 .00. Supply and return issues were discussed. Dan stated that a lot of these issues can be addressed by a good engineer. Economizers need to be priced into the system, along with a fan system with e~rternal ' intake. It was agreed that no windows would open in the building. , ACTION: Dan will initiate the discussions with Larry Gray, at DOE, to take credits and consulting services that aze available. advantage of ta~c
