SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
Attached is a resolution authorizing the City Council to declare an emergency situation for
replacement of the roof at Southeast Community Center and also authorizing the City
Manager to execute an agreement with Dan Leslie Roofing, Inc.
The reason an emergency situation exists is due to the following:
• A recent inspection by City staff revealed major leaks in the roof, which could lead to
structural damage if not replaced before winter. A significant amount of roof damage
occurred during the past winter, due to heavy snowfall.
• Normal bid process would take approximately 90 days. This would eliminate the City
from making repairs before winter.
• If not repaired before this winter, there is a possible safety risk to citizens utilizing the
Center due to potential damage of ceiling tiles and light fixtures.
The cost for roofing the Southeast Community Center is approximately $55,000. Dollars
allocated for this project would be as follows:
1997 Southeast Capital Fund
1997 General Contingency Fund
Total
$20,000
35,000
$55,000
