9.Stone Building Exterior Stabilization - Mr. Pat Goddard, Director of Facilities, presented this project for $202,933. He gave a brief background of the project, and stated that the Historic Structures Report had been completed, and was the basis for the requested $202,933. Although there was approximately $122,000 to $130,000 remaining in the FY 2010 budget from a previous CPA appropriation, Mr. Goddard explained that he felt it would be “cleaner” to return these funds, and commence in FY11 with a new appropriation. There were no questions on this project. 10.Town Office Building Renovation - Mr. Mark Barrett, Project Manager from the Facilities Department, addressed this application for $1,933,947. Mr. Barrett gave a brief history of the project and explained that the proposed work entailed bringing the building up to code from the standpoint of ADA accessibility and fire safety, and relocating certain offices to increase efficiency. The ADA work would include the installation of handicapped accessible bathrooms and counters, installation of a ramp at the front of the building, and a handicapped accessible door on the Post Office side of the building. Mr. Sandy said he recalled an appropriation for handicapped bathrooms a few years earlier, which Mr. Barrett replied had not been spent. Mr. Sandy also asked why there was a need for a handicapped entrance on the east side of the building (facing the Post Office) when there was no handicapped parking on that side of the building. Mr. Barrett responded that the handicapped entrance had been suggested by the architect. Mr. Kanter of the CEC, asked Mr. Barrett if the previous ADA appropriation for the bathrooms was included in the $1,933,947 figure. Mr. Barret replied that it was not, and would be additive to the project. (There is presently approximately $49,000 left in this FY09 appropriation for the ADA bathroom work.) 11.Cary Library Preservation Project - Archives - Ms. Connie Rawson, Director of the Library, spoke to this request for $100,000 for the conversion of an existing storage room into a climate controlled vault for historic document storage. She explained the need for the vault, and said that $10,000 would be devoted to design work, with the remainder devoted to the construction of the vault. There were no questions regarding this project. 12.Building Envelope – Mr. Goddard addressed this request for $73,000 for roof repairs to Cary Hall, restoration of architectural details to the top of the Cary Memorial Building, related work, and updating of the Massachusetts Historical Commission Form B.
