MEMORANDUM
TO: James Cichetti,Presidentt ity Council
FROM: William P. Sapelli WP
DATE: June 17, 2016
SUBJ: Resolution Withdrawal
I respectfully request that TR2016-48, regarding the replacement of boilers at the Roberta G.
Doering School,be removed from the June 20, 2016, City Council meeting agenda. MSBA has
informed the school department that this resolution will not be necessary until January of 2017,
because the replacement boilers will not be installed until the spring/summer of 2017.
However, MSBA requires that the funding for the Feasibility Study/Schematic Design Phase of
the project be allocated now. Consequently, I am respectfully requesting that the transfer of
$15,000.00 within the Building Maintenance Department be approved and encumbered for the
Feasibility Study/Schematic Design Phase of the project in order for the MSBA process to move
forward. The cost for a Feasibility Study/Schematic Design is approximately $30,000.00. The
transfer of$15,000.00 within the Building Maintenance Department line items would allow us to
meet the$30,000.00 requirement.
As you are aware,these boilers are over 50 years and in dire need of replacement. I truly
appreciate your continued support and cooperation in this matter relating to the schools.
