UBERUAGA, City Administrator%-^ �--- PREPARED BY: DAN T. VILLELLA, H.B.P.F.C. Assistant Secretary R ED BY CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: INTERIOR POOL - CENTRAL LIBRARY /'L ' 4 lye Consistent with Council Policy: Q Yes ❑ New Policy or Exception, c CrFY CI YRK Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Actions, Attachments STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVE: It is the desire of the Huntington Beach Public Facilities Corporation Board of Directors to provide financial assistance in funding the structural modifications required to make operational the interior pool at the Central Library Facility. RECOMMENDATION: Request the Huntington Beach Public Facilities Corporation return to the City construction costs, not to exceed $20,000. These funds shall be used to cover the costs associated with the structural modifications needed to the interior pool and fountain at the Central Library. ANALYSIS: Pool consultants have verified that the interior pools and fountains underneath the spiral ramp at the Central Library must be properly waterproofed to avoid subterranean moisture under the fountain through pool leakage. Originally, the plans called for a roofing material that would not provide appropriate waterproofing. Consequently, it has been recommended that construction of a structural pool area, including rebar, gunite, and plaster would insure not only a waterproof pool enclosure, but protect the surrounding interior foundation from water damage due to pool leakage. Insufficient funds exist in the Library construction contract to cover the costs, which are estimated to be $20,000. FUNDING SOURCE: Huntington Beach Public Facilities Corporation, Construction Fund, Account No. E-DI-ND-101-7-25-00. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Find alternative funding for structural modifications to the Central Library Interior Pools. 2. Do not make structural modifications to the Central Library Interior Pools at this time. ATTACHMENT: November 18, 1993, letter from Huntington Beach Public Facilities Board President Lorraine Faber. s PUBLie C7 INCORPORATED R7 Z y i NOVEMBER 27.1970 CAL IF ORN�� Huntington Beach Public Facilities Corporation 2000 Main Street • Post Office Box 190 • Huntington Beach, California 92648 Honorable Mayor Grace Winchell and City Council Members CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, California 92648 Dear Mayor and Council Members: November 18, 1993 At the last regularly scheduled meeting of the Public Facilities Corporation Board of Directors, Ron Hayden, Library Director, provided a status report on the construction of the Children's Wing. It is the understanding of this Board, that pool consultants have verified that the interior pools and fountains underneath the spiral ramp must be properly waterproofed to avoid subterranean moisture under the fountain through pool leakage. Originally, the plans called for a roofing material that would not provide appropriate waterproofing. Consequently, it has been recommended that construction of a structural pool area, including rebar, gunite, and plaster would insure not only a waterproof pool enclosure, but protect the surrounding interior foundation from water damage due to pool leakage. Mr. Hayden advised that insufficient funds exist in the Library construction contract to cover the costs, which are estimated to be $20, 000. A majority vote of this Board has reflected that the Public Facilities Corporation would be interested in funding the needed structural improvements to the Central Library fountains if it is the desire of the City Council. The funding level shall be dictated by the cost of such construction, not to exceed $20,000. If this proposed action by the Public Facilities Corporation is in concurrence with the desire of the City Council, please so advise this Board. Sincerely, 4RReAlNE FABER, President H. B.
