Greg Krobot introduced Roger Farrell of the JF Company and Ed Delong of Precision Slate and Tile to discuss their proposal to strip, repair and repaint the woodwork on the Fish Gate and to replace the tile roof using salvaged tile of the same design as was on the original structure. They agreed that they could complete the job by the end of September; that the salvaged tile would have a terra cotta appearance consistent with the original tile; that they would leave extra tile for any future repairs; and that they would provide a ten year guarantee.
Motion (by Greg and Pat): To accept JF’s proposal using salvaged tile and inserting a completion date of Sept. 15, 2012 with a 10% penalty if not completed by the due date.
Motion carried.
There was discussion of various alternatives for a grant request under the UIRF process.
Motion (by Jason and Beth): To submit a UIRF request for stone work restoration of the NW, N and E gates in light of restoration work completed on the S gate and anticipated on the NW gate.
Motion carried. Greg and Rick will prepare the application in advance of the July 27 due date.
The minutes of the May 2, 2012 Board meeting were approved as amended to reflect approval of a $500 contribution by FGP to the Short North summer music series.
Goodale Gates Elements
Rick Miller reported the bottom portion of the new light fixtures have been fabricated, but there is no completion date yet for the rest of the fixtures.
Julie reported that the FGP Happy Hour recognition by Give Back Columbus had resulted in significant tool donations as well as $140.
Andy reported total revenues and accounts receivable for the month of May of $220.21. Total net assets as of 06/06//12: $40,155.77.
ProCon has already pumped out water to reduce the water level around the fountain and thereby allowing work to start on sealing the foundation. Work should commence yet this week with completion by early next week. Once the work has been completed, the well will be turned on again. The city has arranged for ProCon to pump remaining water needed to fill the pond during the week of June 25. The pond will be fenced off this Saturday during the scheduled work day. Bryant will pick up fence posts from Rec and Parks.
