Mr. Meyer said staff was seeking EDA approval to develop a Task
Force that will be able to be involved in the project long term
and provide input that can be supported by the businesses along

issues.
It was moved by Commissioner Haun, seconded by Commissioner
Jacobs, to acknowledge the creation of the Excelsior Blvd. Task

streetscape design process; authorize the Executive Director to
make appointments to the Task Force in consultation with EDA
members and appoint an EDA member to serve as liaison between the

b . C h a n g e O r d e r N o . 3 : A d o l f s o n & Peterson, Tower Place
parking ramp - Resolution EDA 94-4
It was moved by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner
Latz, to adopt Resolution EDA 94-4 entitled "Resolution
pertaining to change order No. 3 with Adolfson & Peterson for EDA
project No. 8-93."
Commissioner Latz asked what the source was for the medical waste
and PCB as referenced in the Change Order, item #5. He wondered
if some other source should bear the costs to deal with this.
Mr. Meyer said any additional costs incurred because of the
change order would be the developer's liability.
A representative from Adolfson & Peterson said these materials
were probably dumped about 20 years ago. Identity of the dumper
is not known.
Commissioner Latz, referencing the teflon cable, asked if this
could have been checked on before adding to contract.
The representative said it was not unusual for some detail to be
overlooked during the design process and in this instance, teflon
cable is not made in the size the architect spect.
He said about $80,000 had been deleted from the project
previously so there is a net gain of approximately $35,000-
$40,000.
The motion passed 6-0.
6. Unfinished business
None.
7. New business
None.
