MEMORANDUMb9
TO:
MR. B. TINK, CHAIRMAN OF THE PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE
^
FROM:
J. DUNHAM, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
SUBJECT:
EQUIPMENT HOUSING
•,_
DATE:
SEPTEMBER 27 1976
At the September 9, 1976, Works Committee Meeting, the
mention subject in conjunction with memorandum 66, a
r}
copy of which is attached, was discussed and referred to
myself for a further report at the next Works Committee
meeting. During the discussions, three questions appeared;
to beofsome concern. Where to add, when and at what cost?
'
In considering the geographic location of,the
existing buildings, and assuming the future growth lareas,
I would recommend that in the first stage, four additional`
bays
of the now needed eight bays be in addition to existing,3
at the Hampton yard. The existing building is a four bay,
44 feet wide and 88 feet," 10inches long,
4 bays = 3,520 sq.ft. at $28.00 per sq.ft. = $98,560.00
Therefore, including engineering total estimated cost for a
4 bag addition would be $105,000,00 at :today's cost. Further'
to this, I would recommend that a bulk storage building be, 1,41
provided in the Bowmanville Works yard for salt and sand.
Estimated cost of a 100 foot diameter building with a capacity
of 4500 tons is $40,000.00.
If this type of storage was made available, we would gain one
additional bay which is now being used for salt storage. With
this and other minor alterations it is quite possible that the
housing space in this building would be adequate for some time—
In Orono, the existing building is a 5 bay, at thb present time
it is serving the needs with no surplus space to spare. This should
be adquate until such time that Ward 3 has additional development, -
then an expansion of this building would be required. "
-r
In conclusion, I would suggest that recommendations in this report
be given top priority and possibly be initiated in 1977. Tort al
estimated costs for both proposals is $145,000.00.
