CITY OF SOUTH BEND OFFICE OF THE CLERK <br /> Committeemember Broden requested, I would like to go through that process because I am not <br /> routinely seeing them. <br /> Ms. Boyles stated, And the trail continues through the Board of Public Works. <br /> Committeemember Broden interjected, And that is when I do see them is when it hits you guys. <br /> Then, we see it as a Council in an update like this. I know some of the Commission members are <br /> asking these same questions, too, about the actual amounts. Thanks. <br /> Ms. Boyles continued, These are some of the current Fire Station projects (referencing a slide in <br /> the presentation). Station Nine (9) is almost complete. It is estimated to be completed in June. It's <br /> estimated to be $3.6 million. We've stayed pretty close to that with minimal change orders. The <br /> Training Center is also anticipated to be complete at the end of July, actually, with an actual target <br /> of September. So, they are way ahead of schedule. We are also working with Fire on some future <br /> renovations for Stations Three(3) and Six (6). Both stations need some interior renovations,really <br /> looking at adequate separation between living quarters and the truck bays.We are going to upgrade <br /> those with some safety features. Station Six (6) is going to need separate restroom spaces. There <br /> is also a list of projects ongoing with Venues, Parks & Arts. I don't want to step on anyone's toes, <br /> these all belong to those departments but, again, we do assist them with managing all of these <br /> projects. The West Bank Trail is going to have a new ADA accessible trail with some overlooks. <br /> We are getting ready to open bids on that at the end of May. Leeper Park construction is starting <br /> soon. The first (Pt) phase and then the second (2"d) phase will follow. All of that should be <br /> completed by the end of the year. Pulaski, we are doing some entrance improvements, new <br /> restrooms and soccer fields. Pinhook is getting trail improvements and a new playground. We are <br /> doing some renovations at some of the athletic courts. Replacing the Muessel Grove restroom and <br /> the Morris Theatre is an interesting project. We will be repairing the decorative plaster that wraps <br /> around the base of the domes. We had a façade failure almost a year ago, now, so, there is a small <br /> window of time we don't have any scheduled events and we will get in there and get it done <br /> quickly. <br /> Committee Chair Voorde asked, What about the Erskine Clubhouse? <br /> Ms. Boyles replied, I think that is on schedule to be done soon but I can't remember off the top of <br /> my head. <br /> Councilmember Jake Teshka replied, The last time I talked to Aaron Perri, it was scheduled for <br /> some time in June. <br /> Committee Chair Voorde stated, Ok. And, that hydro plant at Seitz? Is that still scheduled? <br /> Ms. Boyles replied, They are supposed to be analyzing soon and it is still a go. <br /> Ms. Boyles continued, Some Waste Water related projects, we are doing $6 million worth of <br /> electrical improvements to change the way the feed comes into the plant as well as to do some all <br /> over modifications and updates to outdated equipment and some of the standby backup power. We <br /> are also doing a project related to Digester Gas Utilization. This will help with our CNG fuel <br /> station. There will be some piping and some instrumentation controls that allow us to clean gas. <br /> EXCELLENCE ACCOUNTABILITY INNOVATION INCLUSION EMPOWERMENT <br /> 455 County-City Building 227 W.Jefferson Bvld South Bend,Indiana 46601 p 574.235.9221 f574.235.9173 TTD 574.235.5567 www.southbendin.gov <br /> 5 <br />
