Motion: Approve all previous minutes (4:0)
Discussion of STM-2 Article 2 report on DPW facility. Change to
"Construction Documents through bid phase".
DPW capital requests:
Lincoln Field: $400K. Methane Gas mitigation. Still waiting for DEP
approval. They've been doing quarterly testing. They need to put up
a 400' underground barrier between the sidewalk and the fence. The
range of options are between $300K and $400K. They have monitors in
the abutting houses, but no gas detected yet. $15K in sunk costs so
far from recreation operating budget.
Dam Inspections: $30K. State has mandated inspections every three
years. This appropriation is for anticipated repairs after the
inspections. $30K is based on consultants report estimate.
Water Dist. Improvements, FY08 $1.8M 8500 l.f. of pipe. Program
should be complete in FY11. Chalpin said he could go to 1.3M if
necessary. FY07 was $900K. $1.8M may be redued by MWRA grants. In
previous years, asked for $900K and got $450K in grants.
DPW Equipment, $523.3K. Sweeper $130K, Toro Ground Master $65K, Small
Vac Truck $225,250 (15% from W&S Ent), Toro Mower w/ snow package
$38.3K, Toro Mower $35K. Small vac truck would be used for flushing
pipes between storm drains.
Sanitary Sewer Improvements, $1.2M. 7000 l.f. of sanitary sewer
infrastructure. TE: How many years out? [many, at least through 2014]
Pump Station Upgrades $100K (FY08). Upgrade to new OSHA requirements
and end of useful life replacements. e.g. Electrical boxes.
Hydrant Replacement $100K. 1500 hydrants in town. Replace 50/year
for 3 years. DK: why only 10%. Dennis: Based on anticipated
replacement list from LFD.
GIS Implementation Plan, $368K. Additional headcount (1.5 FTE)
needed. RB asked for a demo.
Building Envelope: $390K total. $75K ADA upgrades, $35K women's
shower at LFD (placement still up for debate). $280K TOB & Cary Hall
masonry repairs (some through CPA).
LFD Floor - no equest this year for work. $52K - $80K for design.
52K of cost being used for design. No one feels that there's a chance
of an imminent collapse.
Street Improvements $1.2M (including $700K ch. 90 funds). Phase IV of
2002 override is complete with a few exceptions.
CBD Sidewalks $175K. TE: Why is this a 4 year project? [Political]
Bikeway $350K. End-to-end repaving. Can't be CPA. Sidewalks $200K
as recommended by master plan. This is for rebuilding existing
sidewalks. No new sidewalks except Prospect Hill which has a slim
chance.
Storm drain improvements $200K. $40K for Lake St D&E (since updated
to include construction $'s - total construction funds now $420,000).
$160K for construction elsewhere.
Woburn St $120K D&E in 08, construction in 09.
Traffic Mitigation, $50K study
Traffic Mitigation Group - need to tell BoS to set priorities.
Hartwell Ave project cost estimate was $3.5M. Chalpin/Cannon: don't
believe we should have lights at Maple/Pleasant/Mass. Cannon:
Hartwell Ave needs to have ability to be developed.
