Mr. Knop reviewed plans for rehab of the 3891 Moore Street property. He noted that a drainage inlet was discovered on the southwest corner of the property. Henry Wehrdt commented that this property has never been designated as being in a floodplain and Jeffco has never carried flood insurance - on the property. There was consensus to include the following in the - bid -for 3891 Moore: • Enlarge front window. • Install gas fireplace. There was discussion about the possibility of waiving or decreasing permit fees for rehab projects. Ken Johnstone stated that this is a "decision to be made by City Council. He explained how the fees are broken down for services and also pointed out some of the negative aspects associated with waiving fees for certain organizations. B. Fruitdale School update Sally Payne reported that Colorado Preservation, Inc. (CPI) received the grant from the Historical Society to do a structural assessment. They are also working on finding an architect who will be ready to go in 30 -45 days. CPI is still working on obtaining historic designation for the building. Regarding clean-up of the building, Weston Solutions will have fewer people available, so they will only be able to clean a portion of the building. A volunteer organization, Historicorp, might be able to do the remainder of the work. The plan is to have the building cleaned before the architect goes through the building. Ms. Payne reported that she arranged for two roofers to inspect the roof and both were of the opinion that patching the roof would be a waste of money. They would not guarantee work if patched. There has been even more damage with falling plaster from the recent heavy rains. Continued water damage could lead to structural damage. An estimate of $97,000 was given to replace the roof. It would be desirable to have the roof replaced before cleanup takes place. After the architect examines the building, it will be necessary to get the building ready for winter by boarding up broken windows, etc. It was moved by Katie Vanderveen and seconded by Joseph DeMott to direct Sally Payne to obtain bids for roof replacement and select the lowest qualified bidder who can start in a timely manner for an amount not to exceed $100,000. The bid should include removal of existing mechanical Planning Commission Minutes 2 July 26, 2011 7. 9 equipment on the roof if removal would not affect historical designation.
