5. OLD BUSINESS (Cont'd
<br />On motion by Mr. Wiggins, seconded by Mr. Donaldson and
<br />carried, Estimate #15, in amount of $96,298.53, was
<br />approved for payment, to The Hickey Company, on Contract
<br />No. 5, Phase III, R -66.
<br />There is a final change order that is still pending, be-
<br />sides the retainage amount of $8,000.00. Mr. James T.
<br />Zackrocki, Project. Manager with The Hickey Company, ad-
<br />vised the total value of maintenance material is $1,500.00.
<br />Mr. Ed Soltesz, Chairman, Governmental Coordination Com-
<br />mittee of the.River Bend Plaza Advisory Committee, felt an
<br />apology was in order to Mr. Zackrocki relating to his com-
<br />ments directed to Mr. Zackrocki in the last Commission
<br />meeting. He said his main interest is to have the pools
<br />work and the definitive given- -there had been no explana-
<br />tion given on why the hairline cracks were in the pool- -
<br />and once again we go back to lack of communications. Mr.
<br />Zackrocki advised they were aware of the cracks, but in the
<br />last meeting the statement made of the cracks, (i.twas
<br />asserted),his first reaction was that the pool was caving
<br />in. Mr. Zackrocki said they have been watching the cracks
<br />since the Terrazzo was installed. Terrazzo has been in-
<br />stalled in the midwest and throughout the country. With
<br />1000 temperature variations, Terrazzo will not perform
<br />in all places.

<br />tract of $9,671.20 (5%).
<br />Mr. Brownell advised this payment request is usual. The
<br />firm also has a maintenance obligation to us for approxi-
<br />mately 15 to 18 months, plus the 5% retainage, as well as
<br />the maintenance of $13,050.00, not yet invoiced which
<br />would be more than adequate to cover any unknown claims.
<br />Also, per their letter of March 7, 1975, they have paid
<br />Jim's Greenhouse in full. The dispute on the three (3)
<br />lost planters has been cleared and the trucking firm's
<br />insurance will replace them. The planters will be on
<br />the job shortly.
