On November 02, <br />2010, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2786 for the acquisition and relocation of <br />this long standing business. As it was understood at the time, the amount requested by the <br />owner was adequate for their relocation, which was acquired and relocated for Ivy Tech's <br />much needed expansion. <br />While going through the process of getting the needed permits for their relocation, the Fire <br />Department raised issues with the chemicals used by Sinco. Because the Department <br />could not explicitly tell Sinco what issues needed to be dealt with, Sinco had to hire an <br />outside firm to sort through the State and Local regulations. <br />In addition, Sinco had to install additional items not originally planned, including fire <br />suppression and monitoring equipment. These requirements have substantially hindered <br />Sinco's move to their new location, and have cost Sinco $6,884 in extra costs. Under our <br />relocation policy, these costs would have been included in the amount paid. <br />Staff believes Sinco put forth their best efforts in estimating the amount needed to relocate, <br />and requests approval of these minimal additional costs. <br />What We Do Today Makes A Difference! <br />
