2. CONSIDERA TION OF KITCHEN IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE SilverRock
RETREA T AND CLUBHOUSE.
Assistant Executive Director Weiss presented the staff report.
Board Member Adolph stated he is not sure temporary is the way to
go and is leaning toward a permanent structure because it's
something that will be used in the future.
Board Member Sniff stated he supports having a permanent kitchen,
and noted the cost prorated over the next 20 to 30 years is not bad.
Board Member Osborne indicated he agrees a permanent structure is a
long-term investment that should be made. He is somewhat
concerned about the price submitted by the contractor but realizes the
City doesn't have much alternative at this point.
Board Member Perkins stated he believes the kitchen should be done
as a permanent structure because this is a first-class resort.
Chairperson Henderson concurred because she believes this facility
has a future on this project.
Board Member Adolph asked about tying the existing walls and the
new restroom walls with the kitchen.
Building & Safety Director Hartung noted it could all have been done
differently if the structures were designed from the beginning.
However, the restroom walls, which are almost done, are made of
slumpstone, and a smooth finish is needed for the kitchen walls.
Additionally, the kitchen will be stick-built instead of masonry walls.
Board Member Adolph noted a smooth coat of plaster can be put on
the slumpstone, and a post and beam could be used to incorporate the
masonry wall with the stick-built wall. He pointed out it would be less
expensive and add six inches to the interior.
Mr. Hartung indicated a ledger would need to . be added to the
restroom wall because both walls are bearing walls.
Board Member Adolph asked if the existing equipment in the kitchen
will be used, and where the hot water heater will be relocated.

He believes the hot water heater will be relocated in the existing
building near the shower area.
Board Member Adolph recommended the window space in the existing
restroom area be framed for shelving instead of boarding it up.
Mr. Hartung confirmed the $195,000 price includes all of the
equipment listed on the plans. He noted having to negotiate a change
order instead of going to an open bid places the City at a
disadvantage.
MOTION - It was moved by Board Members Sniff / Adolph to approve
Option 2 to construct a permanent kitchen per the Dahlin Group
design, and transfer $195,000 from the SilverRock Resort project
contingency to the kitchen project. Motion carried unanimously.
