Memorandum
Attached for your review and action is a resolution to approve a $535,000.00 contract with Pranam Global Tech, Inc. and a $53,500.00 (10%) construction contingency to replace the roof at Veterans Memorial Park Ice Arena.

The Ice Arena Roof at Veterans Memorial Park is nearly 40 years old. It was repaired 12 years ago with a coating that extended the life of the roof for a decade. Currently, there are numerous roof leaks. These leaks significantly compromise the surface of the indoor ice arena such that conditions are unsafe. The coating that was added 12 years ago is no longer effective and for the last two seasons various patching jobs and smaller scale repairs have been attempted with limited success. Additionally, the purlins and beams have rusted due to moisture condensation exacerbated by the roof leaks, and many need to be replaced as part of this project. To preserve the life of the structure in the future, the purlins and beams will have rust removed and painted. Repairs to the Ice Arena were noted in the 2011-2015 Parks and Recreation Open Space Plan infrastructure needs assessment.

The Parks Advisory Commission unanimously recommended approval of this contract at their April 16, 2013 meeting.
