Merchants Hotel Demolition
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum recommends City Council acceptance of the Merchants Hotel Demolition
Project and approval of final payment.
DISCUSSION
The City Council approved a contract with Tschiggfrie Excavating in June, 1999, for demolition
and site clearance of the Merchants Hotel Building at 304 Main Street. The demolition was
required as part of the City's Development Agreement with the Chamber of Commerce for new
Chamber offices.
Tschiggfrie has demolished and cleared the site as provided in the bid specifications with one
exception. The company was directed by staff to drop from the project the cleaning and
tuckpointing of the Dolan Building wall which was exposed by the demolition. This change was
made because of the planned demolition of the Dolan Building and it resulted in a $10,000
reduction in project cost.
Staff have reviewed the work and the documentation presented by Tschiggfrie Excavating and
find then to be complete.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council accept the Merchants Hotel Demolition and Site Clearance
Project as complete and approve final payment under the contract with Tschiggfrie Excavating
Company.
ACTION STEP
The Action Step is for the City Council to adopt the attached resolution.
