ROLL CALL Council Members present: Cooper, Dalla, Pruitt, VanDeventer. Administrative Officials present: Bolint, Campbell, McCabe, Myers, Peterson, Williams. Also present: Messrs. Blackman and Wimer of Wheeler, Wimer, Blackman Architects; David Hicks, Star —News, Carol Castaneda, San Diego Union; and Lillian Heffernan, Evening Tribune. Mayor Waters announced this was a workshop with the architects for further consideration of the new Civic Center; and said as he has had business dealings in the past with Wheeler, Wimer, Blackman Associates (architects) he would step down and turn the meeting over to Vice Mayor Dalla. PRESENTATION Mr. Blackman reported on the progress of the schematic design and displayed the study model (model selected by Council at the previous meeting) with refinements, such as reorienting the elevator core, incision of wall, moving the building about twelve feet away from the garage which could mean it will be open enough that a ventilation system will not be required. Mr. Blackman displayed floor plans of the five stories of the building and cross sections of the building showing the atrium through the third level. He suggested the building be of precast, the glass green in color and non— reflecting and a copper roof. There was discussion of color, the cost of a copper roof; walking roof (for entertainment purposes) as opposed to plain roof and graffiti protection treatment. There was consensus on optional costs of walking roof for all or a portion of the roof off the dining area. There appeared to be consensus on the color white. Mr. Blackman said by the next meeting (October 13) he hoped to have worked out the schematic design, all the floor plans, the building sections, the elevations and the mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems. In addition there will be outline specifications and design cost estimates. He could foresee construction in early summer. Mr. Blackman spoke of the desirability of having a scale model of the building made; something that could be used as a talking tool, it could be on display in the present building through the period of design and construction; the cost would probably be around $6,800; he needed authorization to obtain estimates. ACTION: Moved by Dalla, seconded by Cooper, he be authorized to obtain estimates. Carried by unanimous vote. Mr. Blackman said there was a problem; in the agreement with the City, it says the owner is responsible for the space program: which departments are next to each other, what their requirements are for power, lighting, etc. Mr. Blackman said the City did provide a summary space program, but it was not what is needed, he met with the Assistant City Manager for about two hours and they went over the process. Mr. Wimer said the agreement states the architect will review the program supplied by the owner. Mr. Blackman said he was asked if he could perform that service and what it would cost; if he were to perform the work necessary, with lots of cooperation from the City, the charge would be $11,040 and if it could be accomplished within five weeks he would be able to return $1,000. City Attorney Eiser said this would necessitate a change in the written agreement; this could be on the next Community Development Commission agenda; today we can authorize you people to put this together. ACTION: Moved by VanDeventer, seconded by Cooper, so moved. Carried by unanimous vote. In answer to Vice Mayor Dalla's question, Mr. Blackman named the sub— contractors who would be responsible for lighting, landscaping, etc. Book 70/Page 106B 9/13/88 Vice Mayor Dalla announced the next joint workshop meeting would be at 2:00 p.m., Thursday, October 13, 1988.
