5202,000 for repairs to roofs at the Harley Street complex As the repairs proceeded, additional
roofing was found to be damaged In the course of the work, the contractor also uncovered.
rotted decking and related problems which cannot be attributed to the May 5, 1995 hail storm
and are therefore not covered by insurance It is necessary that the conditions be repaired before
the new roofs are installed
The total cost for this work is 532,000 of which 527,000 is covered by insurance The remaining
55,000 for rotted decking is not covered by insurance
There are, however, other roofing projects amounting to about 51 million to be contracted, and
it is expected that similar problems will occur on many of them Staff is recommending that a
contingency fund be established in the amount of 5100,000 (10% of the estimated reroofing
costs) to cover these additional costs Any change order exceeding 515,000 will be presented
to the City Council for its consideration
