r FE2 71994 BOOK 42. PtGE $Q1 BUT HE FELT IT IS THE ATTITUDE OF THE PEOPLE IN THE BUILDING THAT CAN MAKE THE RENOVATION WORK OR NOT. HE NOTED THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO COME IN AND SHUT DOWN A WHOLE DEPARTMENT WITHOUT NOTICE, AND AGAIN MENTIONED THE COOPERATION GIVEN BY THE STAFF OF THE MARTIN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AND STATED THAT HE FELT -HIS PEOPLE COULD GO IN AND REMODEL ANY PLACE. COMMISSIONER LYONS ASKED THE ATTORNEY IF HE HAD ANY LEGAL PROBLEM WITH ACCEPTING THE BID FOR THE HOSPITAL RENOVATION CONDITIONED ON THE RECEIPT OF THE APPROVED SITE PLAN, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT HE WOULD NOT LIKE TO SEE THE CONTRACT SIGNED UNTIL WE HAVE RE- CEIVED SITE PLAN APPROVAL, BUT FELT IT COULD BE AWARDED. COORDINATOR THOMAS FELT WE ARE IN A BETTER POSITION EVEN WITH THAT CONDITION. MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER LYONS, SECONDED BY COMMIS- SIONER Loy, TO ACCEPT THE BID OF REINHOLD CONSTRUCTION, INC., FOR THE REMODELING OF THE OLD HOSPITAL BUILDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,748,000 CONDITIONED UPON RECEIPT OF SITE PLAN APPROVAL FROM THE CITY OF VERO BEACH AND ALSO TO ACCEPT THE ALTERNATE BID OF $400.00 PER UNIT FOR THE WINDOWS; THE CONTRACT NOT TO BE SIGNED UNTIL CONDITIONS ARE MET. ATTORNEY COLLINS COMMENTED THAT IT MIGHT BE WISE TO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ACCEPT THE SECOND BID WITHIN THE TIME FRAME ALLOWED. COMMISSIONER WODTKE FELT THERE IS NO WAY WE CAN DO ONE JOB WITHOUT ALSO DOING THE OTHER AND THAT THE ONLY REASON WE ARE GOING AT IT THIS WAY IS TO ALLOW THE COORDINATOR TO PUSH AHEAD WITH THE BONDS. HE CONTINUED THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE AT LEAST A WEEK MORE AND STATED THAT HE DID NOT WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING CONTINGENT ON SITE PLANT APPROVAL THEREBY PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE CITY OF VERO BEACH. HE STATED THAT HE WOULD FEEL MUCH HAPPIER IF WE MAKE SUCH A MOTION TO INCLUDE BOTH OF THE PROJECTS. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT ASKED THE COORDINATOR IF HE CAN PROCEED ONCE THE CONTRACT IS AWARDED, AND MR. THOMAS STATED THAT IF THE BID IS AWARDED, HE CAN PROCEED WITH THE RATING PROCESS IMMEDIATELY.
