C. Winter Beach Convenience Center: The installation of a stairway between the upper and <br />lower areas is not practical at this time. John Dean recommends the current pathway be <br />blocked with barrier posts, preventing the employees from going between the fence and <br />the retaining wall railing. A pathway made of Marl would be constructed leading to a <br />newly installed gate in the fence north of the drop-off area. The pathway would resume <br />beyond the gate and lead to the lower level. <br />The use of stairway between the upper and lower levels is not recommended based on their <br />capital costs and limitations they would place on an over-all site assessment which may be <br />performed in the near future. The intent is to provide a rapid, inexpensive solution to problems <br />identified County staff. The recommendations above represent a near term solution to <br />problems which will be addressed further in a comprehensive evaluation of all five of the <br />convenience centers. <br />A licensed and insured contractor will be hired as a subcontractor to John Dean Architect to <br />perforin the project as approved by county staff. The Contractor's fee will be part of John <br />Dean's outside professional fee. John [lean will oversee and manage the construction of the <br />project. Since time is of the essence in addressing these items, the contractor will be hired with <br />a negotiated price without a formal bid process. Work would proceed immediately upon <br />authorization. We believe these items to be maintenance and restorative in nature requiring no <br />construction permits. However, should permits be required, there would be additional delay <br />and expenses incurred. <br />RB141 B-2 <br />
