l Meeting Minutes
� Minutes for January 7th reviewed. Motion to accept minutes by Kevin Hayes. Second: John O'Brien Motion PASSED
l Architect – Not present
� Public comments – Jack Stephenson
¦ Brought up insulation issues. Biggest problem was not uniform throughout.
¦ Excellent on ceilings, marginal on walls.
¦ Increase insulating foam under the slab from 2” to 4”. 2” is not enough. Foam is cheap!
¦ CMU – insulation value is nil. Perhaps use eco-block.
¦ Poured concrete is better, particularly for holding cells.
¦ Use ULMW (Ultra-High Molecular Weight) coating on walls of cells. Impervious. Makes cleanup easier and less likely detainees will be able to damage it.
¦ On lower level move windows higher. Also add glass blocks in garage and sally port to provide light.
¦ Use stranded wire rather than solid wire for alarm wiring. Minimal cost difference. (Allowed by code?)
� Savings may not be what is claimed but is well worth looking into – Kevin Hayes.
� Updated insulation as mentioned by Bill Rohr worth a look. Been done non old building and worked well. Call Quality Insulation for review and quote?
l Marketing – 3 pronged approach
� Economic – costs won't get any lower; will have minimal effect on tax rate, none for upcoming fiscal year.
� Energy efficiency – features and benefits.
� Geothermal – cost effective. Cost for town hall was high due to required renovations to install geothermal.
l Police department – Kevin Keenan
� Info out to public? Not yet.
� Will put out statement/press release.
� John O'Brien/Chan Eddy will make presentation to PD personnel.
l Next Meeting
� Monday, February 9th at 5PM.
