4.Approval of Demolition Contract Columbia Arena
Paul Bolin,
ant City
Engineer Jon Lennander.
Mr. Bolin
stated that staff and public works ran a formal bid process, opening them on July
8, 2015. Four bids were received ranging from $492,234 to $1,161,702. Staff recommends
awarding the work to Rachel Contracting. Their quote was within staff estimates and this
company has performed well on other projects in town.
Chairperson Commers
was surprised with the range of bids that came in.
Jon Lennander
, Assistant City Engineer, noted that the three other bidders were close to
each other and the other one was quite a bit lower. Rachel Contracting had the best
knowledge of the site and have been working close with the environmental consultant.
Chairperson Commers
noted that this is just for the demolition and has nothing to do with
remediation.
Mr. Lennander
replied that this includes the abatement of hazardous materials in the
building. Funds are also allocated for one or two underground tanks if they are there.
Chairperson Commers
asked if staff knew where they are at with the Freon and how that
was going to be handled.
Mr. Bolin
replied that a study was done and when the soils were dropped the Freon vapors
were released. Tests will be done to make sure all vapors are out through the entire site. The
demolition will take out the soils and till them over 10 days to ensure all Freon vapors are
released. The soils will be tested during this process.
Commissioner Eggert
noted that Rachel Contracting is working at Northern Stacks so there
are probably economies to move the equipment within the same area to lower the cost.
Mr. Lennander
replied yes, most of the staff and equipment is already here.
CommissionerHolm
asked if staff was confident Rachel Contracting will be able to do this
project within the confines of the bid and what will the site look like when it is complete.
City of Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Meeting of July 16, 2015 3
Mr. Lennander
replied that Rachel Contracting said that with their bid there was an error of
per sq. ft. vs sq. yd. They clarified the work and said they would do it for the price quoted.
If nothing comes up outside of the specifications it will be ok. The building will be taken
down to the top of the piling cap and the site will be graded so it will drain. All concrete and
asphalt will be ground and the area will be seeded.
Chairperson Commers
asked if the pilings would interfere with construction,
Mr. Bolin
replied that staff looked at this last fall
and what the footprint might be; the pilings would be kept in for now. Some pilings are 150
ft. deep and to tear them out it would double the demo cost. All the piling caps are marked
so when we have an end user for the site they will only have to take out the ones that are in
the way.
Chairperson Commers
asked if that would be deferred liability for the Authority. He asked
if the pilings were left in if it would be considered ready for redevelopment.
Mr. Bolin
replied that anyone who wants to redevelop on HRA property seems to end up
with costs the Authority ends up covering. To take out all the pilings and caps now would be
very costly. This way we only take out the ones that will be in the way down the road.
MOTION
by Commissioner Gabel to award the demolition contract to Rachel Contracting.
Seconded by Commissioner Holm.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS
DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY
Chairperson Commers
asked when they were going to start.
Mr. Lennander
replied that it would be about two weeks before they start working out there.
It should be complete by the end of September/early October.
Informational Items
1.Housing Loan Program Update
Paul Bolin,
HRA Assistant Executive Director, reported that no loans were closed making
two year to date and remodel advisor visits had one making three year to date. The Home
Energy Squad had three visits making 40 year to date.
Chairperson Commers
said that staff should look at ways to promote and get information
out further on these programs to see if we can get the numbers up.
Commissioner Eggert
noted that the new website will help to navigate people to these
programs.

HRA ACTION ITEM
SEPTEMBER 3, 2015
DATE:
August 24, 2015
TO:
Wally Wysopal, City Manager
FROM:
Paul Bolin, Assistant Director of HRA
Darin Nelson, Finance Director
SUBJECT:
Consider HRA Tax Levy for Taxes Payable in 2016
Since 1996, the HRA has utilized a tax levy to help support its housing rehabilitation
programs. The levy is equal to .0185% of the taxable market value of all real estate and
personal property. The tax levy will allow the Authority to collect approximately
$397,000, based on a city-wide tax market value of $2,146,063,300. In terms of the
impact on taxpayers, the levy would cost $27.75 per year for a home valued at $150,000
and $185.00 per year for a commercial property valued at $1,000,000. The revenues
raised by the levy are directed towards ongoing and future redevelopment priorities.
State Statutes require the consent of the City Council, prior to the tax levy becoming
th
effective. The City Council will act on this item on September 14. As a final note, the
HRA tax levy will be certified to the County Auditor on September 15, 2015.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Authority approve the attached resolution at their regular
meeting on September 3, 2015.
