Board members discussed the following item(s) from the agenda:
Award Bid — Demolition of Former Millennium Site
Mr. Rob Nichols, Engineering, stated this bid is being recommended for award for Items
Nos. 1, 2, and 4 only: the structure demolition and clearing, asbestos abatement, and site
restoration. Mr. Gilot reviewed the bid tabulation sheet and stated that Mr. Nichols had
noted math errors in the submitted bids. He stated the three items being awarded are
going to the low bidder, Ritschard Bros, Inc., but they would not be the low bidder on the
total scope of the project. Mr. Gilot questioned if Mr. Nichols was recommending
rejection of all of the bids on the remaining phase of the project. Mr. Nichols stated he is
recommending rejection of all bids on the environmental phase which includes Items
Nos. 3, 5, and 6, and Alternates I and 2, and requesting to re- advertise those items which
include soil disposal, asphalt cap, and environmental allowance. He noted once the
building is removed, IDEM will do further testing for environmental issues before that
part of the project is re -bid. Attorney Cheryl Greene questioned Mr. Nichols whether the
bid specs allowed for the Board to divide the award. Mr. Nichols stated the specs were
separated out by item and included language that allowed for the Board to award or reject
individual items in the specs.
Monthly Report of Operations
Mr. Al Greek, Environmental Services, Mr. Jeff Hudak, Central Services, and Mr. Dave
Tungate, Water Works, presented their respective Division's Monthly Reports of
Operations for the month of November, 2010.
Safety Reports
Mr. Jeff Hudak, .Central Services, Mr. Dave Tungate, Water Works, and Mr. Toy Villa,
Engineering, presented their Division's Safety Reports for the month of November, 2010.
Special Purchase — Fire Department
Chief Mark Nowicki, Fire Department, stated this request for a special purchase is for
thermal imaging cameras for the Fire trucks. Chief Nowicki stated the cameras need to be
compatible with current equipment and there is a need to standardize the equipment for
the firefighter's use. Attorney Cheryl Greene informed Chief Nowicki that this is not a
sole source vendor, but does qualify as a special purchase due to compatibility issues and
standardization of equipment. Mr. Littrell stated it is important for safety issues to have
common operating procedures in place. Chief Nowicki agreed that in an emergency
situation, it is important that fire emergency equipment is all operated the same so there is
no confusion on how to use the equipment. Mr. Gilot recommended to Chief Nowicki
that it might be more cost efficient to bid out the lease /purchase of sixteen (16) cameras
every five (5) years to get competitive bidding, rather than replacing a few cameras every
couple of years. He noted that way they would have compatible equipment but not be tied
to one vendor.
PUBLIC AGENDA SESSION DECEMBER 16 2010 384
- Staffing Agreement — Memorial Hospital
Mr. Inks asked Chief Mark Nowicki, Fire Department, if the money that is generated for
this staffing of hospital children's ambulances covers the City's costs. Chief Nowicki
stated it does, Mr. Gilot questioned why there is only a $.55 per hour increase for 2012.
Chief Nowicki stated they base the increase on salary increases given to the firefighters.
The $.55 increase is a 2% increase, which is tied to the labor agreement that was
negotiated for the firefighter's 2% raise for 2012.
- Professional Services Proposal — Signal System Communications Testing, Troubleshooting,
and Repair
Mr. Rob Nichols, Engineering, stated this is an hourly, not to exceed, proposal for
locations listed on the agenda. He noted there will be more locations to come. Attorney
Cheryl Greene questioned whether this is a professional service agreement. Mr. Gilot
stated this is very specialized work and is professional service. Mr. Toy Villa,
Engineering, added that Martell Electric is the only company with technicians that
specialize in this field. Mr. Nichols added this involves the City's Metronet fiber.
- Change Order -- Eddy Street Commons Streetscapes
Mr. Toy Villa, Engineering, stated this will be the last Change Order for this project. He
noted the last part of the project, related to the construction of the hotel, was removed
from the contract. Mr. Inks informed Mr. Villa that he will need the Certificate of
Completion when the project is closed out for the Bond issue.
- Change Order — Oliver Plow Memorial
Mr. Toy Villa, Engineering, informed the Board that this increase was due to the
incorrect size of the electric cabinet required in the bid specifications. He stated the
cabinet was not large enough to attach all of the lights. Mr. Villa noted the State inspects
the cabinets; we rely on INDOT for the inspection report. Mr. Gilot stated we should look
at them, and should be monitoring them for problems. He added the contractor shouldn't
be paid until the City has confirmed they can turn on a computer and see that the signals
are working.
- Change Order — Southern Drive Culvert Replacement
Mr. Toy Villa, Engineering, stated that this change order is due to IDEM's original
statement that there would not be a permit needed for the type of soil in the culvert. After
the bid letting, IDEM retracted their opinion and informed the City a permit would be
necessary.
- Award Turf Bid — Coveleski Stadium
Mr. Inks stated at a prior Board meeting the award of the Turf bid for the Coveleski
Stadium was approved subject to a finalization of the Coveleski project's budget. He
noted the conditions have been met, the items have been prioritized and they have
identified the items to be taken out of the budget. Therefore, Mr. Inks made a motion that
the Notice to Proceed be issued for the Turf project. Mr. Gilot seconded the motion,
which carried.
The Clerk was instructed to post the agenda and notify the media and other persons who have
requested notice of the meeting agenda. No other business came before the Board. The meeting
adjourned at 12:23 p.m.

APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT — CSO TRUNK SEWER
MODIFICATIONS — PROJECT NO. 111 -007 (SEWER BOND)
Mr. Patrick Henthorn, Engineering, stated this agreement with DLZ is a study of the possible
options for the expansion of Steel Warehouse to the north. He noted they are requesting to
expand and are currently landlocked. There is a 96" sewer running through the north property
and the options of how to build over the pipe are being studied. Mr. Gilot stated if the City won't
accommodate them, they will move their entire operation to Illinois. He noted this has been done
before at the Bendix Corporation. Mr. Littrell stated the same pipe goes under an adjoining
apartment building so there is a way to accommodate Steel Warehouse's request. Mr. Henthorn
stated this was added to the agenda late, and the agreement is not yet complete. Attorney Cheryl
Greene stated she has talked to DLZ about the agreement and it is the same standard form of
agreement that has been used in the past. She noted she is comfortable with the terms of the
agreement. Therefore, upon a motion by Mr. Gilot, seconded by Mr. Littrell and carried, the
agreement was approved.

APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT — CSO TRUNK SEWER
MODIFICATIONS — PROJECT NO. 111 -007 (SEWER BOND)
Mr. Patrick Henthorn, Engineering, stated this agreement with DLZ is a study of the possible
options for the expansion of Steel Warehouse to the north. He noted they are requesting to
expand and are currently landlocked. There is a 96" sewer running through the north property
and the options of how to build over the pipe are being studied. Mr. Gilot stated if the City won't
accommodate them, they will move their entire operation to Illinois. He noted this has been done
before at the Bendix Corporation. Mr. Littrell stated the same pipe goes under an adjoining
apartment building so there is a way to accommodate Steel Warehouse's request. Mr. Henthorn
stated this was added to the agenda late, and the agreement is not yet complete. Attorney Cheryl
Greene stated she has talked to DLZ about the agreement and it is the same standard form of
agreement that has been used in the past. She noted she is comfortable with the terms of the
agreement. Therefore, upon a motion by Mr. Gilot, seconded by Mr. Littrell and carried, the
agreement was approved.
