and Health Resource Services respectively"
John Rigdon presented the Schematic Plans and Outline Specifica-
tions for Kodiak Island Hospital. A brief discussion of the
floor plan, exterior and interior proposed systems occurred with
the following items and comments mentioned:
- Total square footage was 64,211 with estimated cost at $16"6
million.
- Roof system was basically raised seam metal roofing with
clearstory windows for natural lighting of some open areas"
- Proposed exterior wall construction was either insulated
metal panel or drivit type system,
- The schedule was reviewed with a bid date of April 22, 1986
indicated.
- It was pointed out that any areas of flat roof should try to
be eliminated. This may prove hard to do since the span
required to cover would cause quite a large rise at a 3:1
slope" It was pointed out that a "hot" roof should be
avoided with provision for adequate attic ventilation taken
into consideration"
- It was pointed out that steam boilers should be avoided, hot
water type were more efficient"
~ All hot water piping should be copper in lieu of galvanized
or steel.
- A water softener is not required, but proper provisions for
boiler treatment should he provided.
- The number of parking spaces was discussed and it was
pointed out that the total number was based on staff use,
out -patient projection and bed count. The current zoning
code would require only approximately 55 spaces,
- The recently installed emergency generators would be uti-
lized at the new hospital.
- The use of heat pumps was questioned. It was noted that
they would be used in areas were cooling was required. An
air conditioning unit would not be fully utilized.
' It was mentioned that heat recovery from light fixtures
should be considered.

- It was questioned where lead walls would have to be in --
stalled. Basically in Radiology and/or Nuclear Medicine.
Most likely lead lined sheetrock would be utilized.
- A brief discussion of site selection occurred with the
probable areas discussed in priority order.
At this point, John Rigdon, Jim Harrison, Jim Gingerich and Roger
Flanders departed" Considerable discussion occurred regarding
the ARR's need to receive feedback on items specifically brought
to the consultant's attention and the engineering/architectural
considerations given. It was recommended that the consultants
respond directly to each specific item. Considerable discussion
then occurred regarding the wording of the Board's review of
plans so as not to imply endorsement of the project but rather
that a technical review was performed. Bill Beaty motioned that
the Architectural Review Board had reviewed the Hospital Schemat-
ic Design and Outline Specifications and commented regarding the
technical adequacy. Seconded by Art Bars and passed by unanimous
vote"
Discussion then centered around the performance of Mills, John &
Rigdon, Architects regarding the Hospital design to date. The
overall concern was that they had performed well with the excep-
tion of responding to some technical concerns the Board had
mentioned previously"
Bill Beaty motioned to recommend retaining Mills, John & Rigdon,
Architects to continue the Hospital Design through construction
documents after proper negotiations. Seconded by John Witteveen
and passed by unanimous vote.
The next item of business was review of the Kodiak High School
Asbestos Abatement/System Upgrade Project A & E proposals.
A brief introduction of the scope of the project plus concerns
with liability insurance was conducted" A review of the five
proposals received occurred and after considerable discussion,
Bill Beaty motioned to short-list the firms to Little Susitna
Company, The Pickering Firm, and Sundberg and Associates; second-
ed by John Witteveen and passed by unanimous vote. Those firms
would be invited to present their proposals on September 17,
1985^ It was decided that the other items on the agenda be
considered at a future meeting"
