Maradik (absent), Vice President Joseph Molnar (absent), and Board Members Gary Gilot, Murray Miller, Briana Micou, and Board Attorney Michael Schmidt present. The Board of Public Works Clerk, Theresa Heffner, presented the Board with a proposed agenda of items presented by the public and by City Staff. AGENDA REVIEW SESSION ACTION ITEM AWARD QUOTATION AND APPROVE CONTRACT – BOHEM PARK MILL AND RESURFACE – (PR-00035865) Rebecca Maenhout, VPA, advised the Board that on August 22, 2024, quotations were received and opened for the above referenced project. After reviewing those quotations, Ms. Maenhout recommended that the Board award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible quoter, Rieth-Riley Construction Co., Inc., in the amount of $27,543.20. Therefore, Mr. Miller made a motion that the recommendation be accepted, and the quotation be awarded, and the contract approved as outlined above. Ms. Micou seconded the motion, which carried by roll call. Board members discussed the following item(s) from the agenda. CHANGE ORDERS Project Manager Patrick Sherman was present to discuss item 7. A.: Seitz Park Renovation. He advised that it was a substantial change order with a big chunk of it was for the wall repair. Even though the total percentage of change orders is now forty-three percent (43%) of the original contract, the vast majority of it was unforeseen issues that had to be dealt with because of the hydro plant or old infrastructure. Outside of the unforeseen conditions, the normal change orders have been about twelve percent (12%). This should be the last additive change order for this project as we expect to close it out in the near future. Murray Miller asked if item 11. B.: Amendment No. 1 to Project Agreement to Perform Work on Stephenson Mills Parking Lot was related to the Seitz Park Project. Mr. Sherman advised that it did not, but he would talk about that item in a moment. AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA Project Manager Sherman was present to discuss item 11. C.: Amendment to Contract for Additional Inspection Services to finish out Seitz Park. He advised that this amendment was to finalize and close this out. Their previous amendment was only supposed to take them out until July but this stretches us out until September so this should close us out for the remainder of the project. AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA Project Manager Sherman was present to discuss item 11. B.: Amendment No. 1 to Project Agreement to Perform Work on Stephenson Mills Parking Lot. He advised that that the city will be redoing Gintz Drive and the parking lot at Stephenson Mills. The city worked hard with the adjacent property owners, including Stephenson Mills to create a design that works for everybody around this agreement. We believe this will be beneficial to the Cascades building because it’s going to raise the road and make it easy to access their loading dock. We will also raise the sidewalks at Stephenson Mills to create easier ADA access. This will fulfill our contractual obligation to redo their parking lot. Mr. Gilot asked about anu concerns down the road. Mr. Sherman advised that there is a three (3) year maintenance bond just like any other city project. Mr. Gilot noted that it is unusual for the city to pay other people’s legal costs. He asked if there is enough language that occurs that carves out a rare exception for this. Board Attorney Michael Schmidt advised that it was part of the negotiation related to the overall project. There was extensive amounts of legal engagement from Stevenson's mills outside counsel throughout a long duration and frankly it's probably a lot cheaper number than what they have in on this. It's been a difficult process for the last number of years, but the work that Public Works Director Eric Horvath and Project Manager Patrick Sherman and the engineering team put in to not only get it done, but also to pull it together was impressive. There's also other parties and a variety of different city boards that need to sign off on this as well as Notre Dame. REGULAR MEETING SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 203 Mr. Miller asked if there was a particular day when the paving must be done or did the specifications say it should be done by November 30, 2024. Mr. Sherman noted that it has been all cleared up and the notice to proceed should be going out soon. Mr. Gilot asked if there would still be time to do the wearing surface. Director Horvath stated that they anticipate being done well before that. The plants probably close around November 15, 2024, the temperature constraint on wearing. CHANGE ORDERS AND PROJECT COMPLETION AFFIDAVITS Project Manager Sherman was present to discuss item 8. A.: Charles Black Parking Lot Seal and Stripe. He advised that the city awarded the project to Alphajak LLC, but it became clear that they were not able to do the work as required by the city and specifications. They met with them multiple times and they finally agreed that we were going to close the project out and pay them for the work they did via change order. PROJECT COMPLETION AFFIDAVITS Diversity Compliance/Inclusion Officer Cynthia Simmons inquired about the sub-contractors for item 9. A.: City of South Bend Wayfinding Signage Program Phase III. She noted that she did not see any evidence of the two (2) sub-contractors being paid. She added that she will reach out to both sides to find out, until then the project should not be closed out. There was also no change in utilization provided. AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA Director of Environmental Compliance Andrea Alexander was present to discuss item 11. D.: Construction Access and Installation Agreement to construct A Methane Biofilter System at Organic Resources. She advised that Parsons Environmental & Infrastructure Group would like to build another methane biofilter at the Organic Resource closed biosolids landfill, quite similar to the biofilter they've done at Fredrickson Park. They've had much success with that filter, so they would like to continue to develop it. They want to continue to look at Midwest climates and the landfill at Organic Resources does have more methane to it than what they're seeing out at Fredrickson Park. Mr. Gilot asked if the flair was used to predict or did the biofilter negate the flair. Director Alexander stated that the flair is a flame and to her knowledge they have never used it at Frederickson Park. Director Alexander added that the subsurface and the biofilter use the vacuum to bring it to the biofilter. Prior to the pilot, it all went into the atmosphere. Now, some of it goes through the biofilter and it is broken down into CO2 and water, which CO2 still being greenhouse gas, but it's less destructive. It is the same point of depression with the flare, but you’re not seeing the methane. The object of this technology is to develop something that's a “set and forget” kind of treatment so that's our goal. They are developing some remote monitors at Fredrickson Park so they don't actually have to go there and test. Mr. Gilot asked if they have anything to keep optimal moisture content. Director Alexander noted that she can’t speak to that, but they use inorganic media to try to put nutrients or food in there, so you don’t have to put a lot of work into it. She added that she is still waiting on comments from IDEM, but the initial discussions she’s had with them they seem very excited about it. Attorney Schmidt advised that it similar to the one at Frederickson Park. Mr. Gilot stated that the reason they are doing it for free is because they want to market this product and enable some pilots. At some point Legal should be involved in what sort of testimonials the city can offer. Director Alexander noted that yes, technically for the license protection, there’s indications on testimonials. PROJECT COMPLETION AFFIDAVITS Attorney Schmidt advised the Board about goals for item 9.B: WWTP Compressor Building Masonry Improvements. He advised that they met the goals for the project and they actually came close to doubling them. He stated this was a good outcome, and kudos to Slatile Roofing on that project. REGULAR MEETING SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 204 LICENSES AND PERMITS Attorney Schmidt was present to discuss item 12. B.: Open Air Business – Wayne Street Wieners. He noted that a gentleman would like to set up a hot dog stand during football weekends downtown. There are no provisions that he could find in the ordinance as to the hours when they should be off the streets. There is no legal prohibition. Maybe we can approve subject to making sure that it’s going ok. If we hear about problems, we may restrict some of the hours so we can be sure everyone is safe. Mr. Gilot added that there are pan-zoom cameras on that street unless they have been removed. Director Horvath advised that they were removed. Mr. Gilot stated that maybe we could have SBPD observe the person for several days. PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Board, Mr. Gilot adjourned the meeting at 10:51 a.m. BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS _________________________________ Gary A.

PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR Resident Jerry Shearer, property owner of 833 E. Dubail, posed a concern in the chat that he has not yet received a response to his last e-mail regarding the utility pole located on private property at 833 E. Dubail. He has a joint driveway agreement with 833. He asked if any of the city engineers were able to determine 1) whether a legal agreement of any type exists which provides for access to the pole on foot and/or by vehicle and 2) if the utility pole has ever been replaced? President Maradik advised that it is an AEP pole, so any questions about legal access and any agreements that are in place or their plans for replacement would need to be addressed by AEP because the city does not own that pole and wouldn't be involved in any of that process. Mr. Shearer asked if any engineers have talked to AEP regarding the pole. He added that he was told that the city would allow for clearing by AEP. President Maradik noted that she was unaware if they've specifically talked to them about the pole relative to his concern, since it would be agreements that are not relative to the city. That would be something property owners would need to discuss with AEP since the city is not a party. She also stated that they could continue the conversation offline, but as she stated before the city would allow for clearing by AEP in the alley right-of-way behind the properties, but it would not be related to the pole itself. Mr. Shearer asked if an email could be sent to him describing this. Board Member Joseph Molnar introduced Allison Doctor to the Board as a new Project Manager in charge of Environmental concerns in Brownfields. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Board, President Maradik adjourned the meeting at 10:02 a.m. BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS _________________________________ Elizabeth A.
