The request of the Building Official to approve a contract with Invision Architecture to design
and coordinate deck repair for the East 5th Street parking ramp was reviewed. In 1996 the city
made over $600,000 in structural improvements and repairs to the West 5th Street and East 5th
Street ramps. At that time, it was noted that both ramps needed deck repair to complete the
rehabilitation project. Invision Architecture was the design firm for the structural portion of the
repairs. The Building Official is recommending that the city retain Invision to design and
coordinate the deck rehabilitation at the East 5th Street ramp. It is necessary to begin the design
and document portion of the project at this time so the repairs will be completed when the
Waterloo Industries project is completed. The contract with Invision Architecture is at a cost not
to exceed $12,500. Moved by Getty, seconded by Jordan that the contract with Invision
Architecture to design and coordinate deck repair at the East 5th Street ramp at a cost not to
exceed $12,500 be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Krizek. Motion carried.
The request of the City Clerk to approve renewal of the boiler and machinery insurance was
reviewed. The policy is with Travelers Property Casualty and covers losses from boiler
explosions and fires at all city buildings. The renewal premium of$11,557 is the same amount of
premium the city paid last year. Moved by Getty, seconded by Jordan that the renewal of the
boiler and machinery insurance with Travelers Property Casualty at a cost of $11,557 be
approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Krizek. Motion carried.
Moved by Getty, seconded by Jordan that a garbage refund in the amount of $30 for 436

The request of the Administrative Director to purchase shutters for Exhibition Hall at the Five
Sullivan Brothers Convention Center was reviewed. On June 24, 1998, the Building & Grounds
Committee approved replacement of the vertical window blinds on the upper level of Exhibition
Hall at the Five Sullivan Convention Center at a cost not to exceed $4,500.00. It has been
determined that the existing blinds were installed in 1993 and required repair service in 1994 anti
1995 and were recommended for replacement in 1996. Building Maintenance has located a,
supplier of horizontal aluminum window shutter systems. Alutech Roller Shutters are custom
made to fit existing openings and are pre-finished from the factory. The shutters are available
with motorized, keyed operators which will prohibit unauthorized manipulation and possible
damage. The shutters are designed for exterior use and mount in a side rail track with enclosed
metal hardware and have a two year maintenance warranty. The units are very expensive, but the
expected life of the shutters makes them more cost effective than purchasing vertical blinds,
