Alderman Gouveia
Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I'll have to go off of what my two colleagues said before. | agree. | think looking past just this
project, which | support, but looking the whole city wide | think it would be good to get a schedule and maybe pick off a
park every two years, every other year just make sure we're keeping our assets up to date. It's always good when we
could switch over to LED as well. | look forward to seeing what the park looks like when it's complete and hopefully that's
kind of a springboard for the rest of our parks.
Bryan Conant, Superintendent of Parks and Recreation
| hope so.

Jon Ibarra, Superintendent of Streets
lam here Mr. Mayor. Thank you. Good evening, everybody. So this is an annual expenditure. It comes out of our
operating budget at the Street Department. Seeking to encumber the funding as a sole source. As you see reviewing the
documents, the pricing but more importantly, their geographic location to our operation. So on a daily basis we run over
the bridge to these facilities and we get our aggregates our asphalt to help us achieve our jobs. Whether it's a mill and fill
program, or asmall paving project, or a sewer repair, sewer dig this is where we get our materials and it's quicker and
makes projects more efficient. I'm happy to answer any questions.

ON THE QUESTION
David Boucher, Superintendent of Wastewater
Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Dave Boucher, Wastewater Superintendent. This is Change Order 1 to a coding project which is
an active capital project at the wastewater facility. Three of the items on this were determined that needed attention.
They’re in the vicinity of our current project, which was determined could receive some cost savings. Basically due to the
mobilization cost would be eliminated since the company is already on site. This included coding of a ladder that goes to
the top of our dechlorination building. It's a metal ladder that's completely rusted out. Also, we have a pipe in our wet
weather facility that's right next to the digester complex that needs a coat of paint and the roof top. It's a concrete roof top
to our combined sewer overflow containment area. This is located right next to the digestive complex.
Three of the items on this were located during the sandblasting and prep work of the primary and secondary digester.
This included the - it's a metal apron that goes around the bottom of our digester or our sludge egg that needed a coat of
paint. There was some work done to the concrete bases of both our primary and secondary digester. After the work
done, it was determined that a sealing coating would be necessary to seal up all the concrete. Also the chain link fence -
