NEW DISTRICT COMP1M - CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE APPROVAL OF CHARGE ORDER
AUTHORIZING ROOF MODIFICATION
Dale Cox explained that Value is proposing to apply two coats of Thermo
Super Prep on the roof which has already been installed. This application
has been tested by an independent testing lab and has passed the fire
retardant Class B roof test for spread of flame and burning brand tests.
The lab has not done an intermittent flame exposure test , but the
laboratory director indicates that in all likelihood the roof assembly
would pass this test for a Class B assembly also. In his letter of July 6,
1987 to the Building Department, Mr. Cox says he feels confident that the
roof assembly will pass this third test, and notes he and the District are
willing to take responsibility for the fire retardant roof assembly which
has been proposed.
Director Maass noted that the Uniform Building Code calls for a Class B
roof. This was overlooked by the County in their review of the building
plans. He moved that the Board approve the change order in the amount of
$12,500 to upgrade the roof to a Class B; seconded by Director Cooley.
Director Cooley stated he is thoroughly unhappy with Nevada County for
overlooking the roof specifications in their plan check. Director Sutton
noted the roof problem was called to the attention of Dale Cox in April,
and she thought it should have been brought to the Board earlier.
After some discussion, Mr. Cox was asked to amend the change order to show
the credit for the original roof coating that was specified as well as that
being approved. ROLL CALL vote to approve Change Order No. 9 to Value
Builders in the amount of $12 ,500 for upgrading the roof over the warehouse
and office to Class B as required by the County of Nevada: Corbett ,
absent; all other Directors, aye. SO MOVED,
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business before the Board , Director Maass moved that
the meeting be adjourned; seconded by Director Conley. All Directors , aye,
by voice vote. SO MOVED at 5:04 P.M.
