Zoom and Christine may haven't had a chance just to confirm all of the design elements to make sure that what is going to be delivered is what everyone is expecting.

So I guess I don't know what I'm expecting is design bill.

That's what I'm expecting.

Well, you've already approved a C-Mar contract for this particular purpose, so that would be different.

Thank you.

So I guess I did I know everybody's in a hurry and we want to get through.

I'm here for the nine.

I just got out of here.

My thought is you have an opportunity, and I know that it's rushed, and I apologize for the information becoming late, but between May what 6th and now, and you know, we found out I don't know it what the actual deadline was because we didn't know we could make the agenda.

So a lot of this has been rushed, and I apologize for that, but it is want to make sure that our design folks get a chance to draw.

Are we waiting for Rob?

Brian's project, yeah.

Our project manager.

You can start the meeting, special meeting.

And so I'm starting the special meeting.

So uh Mayor and Council, I'd like to just kind of give it a brief history.

We want to start the middle first.

Oh, sorry, I thought you already said it.

Okay.

Special meeting, June 3rd, 2025.

Roll call, please.

I let the record reflect that all council members are present.

Council member Hawts is present on Zoom.

Purpose of the meeting is discussion, possible action regarding resolution number 3452, ordering and calling a special bond election to be held November 4th, 2025 in and for the town of Paison to submit to the qualified electors a question of authorizing the issuance and sale of general obligation bonds to the town.

Sheila start the discussion, please.

Thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

Um, I know that part of the information that needs to be included in the resolution that council is considering is the dollar figure that would be submitted to the voters.

So I just want to find out if our team that has been working on the design can summarize the information that was had with the discussion.

Um for council, so we know exactly what that gets us.

So we can thank you, all right.

Mayor and council.

Uh I'm here uh to give you some updates on the information that we shared with you at the May 14th meeting.

Uh that's where we presented the concepts, and our takeaway was to focus on the Malibu site, and um move forward with an uncovered pool at that time.

Since then there was some more discussions about adding a cover.

And so I want to give you some of our most recent numbers because at that time um we still hadn't um refined the numbers.

If you recall the numbers that we provided were plus or minus 25 percent.

Uh, we did not include any um escalation for inflation or um changes in the market.

So we now have factored that in.

And so tonight with the dollars you you're talking about, part of the conversation will be we may have to remove or downsize certain aspects in order to meet those dollar amounts.

So I'd like to give you the estimated costs we have in place now that takes away that plus or minus 25 percent, um, adds in the inflation amount, and what we will get for it.

So the uncovered version, we talked about it being about starting around 12 million.

When we factored in all those um outliers, it now comes to 15.7.

So again, we could downsize some of the features, and that is for the basic pool.

Um if we would like to cover uh the four million dollars that was thrown out four to five million for the cover.

Uh we have an estimate still for 4.7, but it's now getting close to a year old, and with the tariffs, there's some uncertainty of how um the cost may change.

Um again, we can reduce some costs, but that's what I would like to uh talk about more tonight.

So to deliver the pool that we talked about at the last meeting, it would be approximately 20.2 million.

So that includes uh just the basic indoor pool with the cover.

Uh the cover itself increases the cost of um additional systems because with the cover now we have to add HVAC systems, we have to add more electric and lighting.

So that wasn't part of the just installing, you know, what the cover was.

So I wanted to explain that a little bit more.

Um this does still excludes things that were excluded last time, uh, such as slides, the bigger zoo area, uh, the party room, um, and an indoor lobby because we are looking at doing a uh queuing area on the outside versus on the inside, so it'd be a shaded uh type of structure versus uh fully indoor uh lobby.

Um that's where we're at with the most recent numbers.

Our project team, since it was brought up that we wanted to have discussions, has been working relentlessly trying to get these numbers as refined as they could, no uh understanding the decision that was coming um before you tonight.

So you're talking just the six-lane pool.

Correct.

25 meters, 25 yards.

It's I always get confused on the yards or meters, but it's uh to meet the tournament requirements or meet requirements, and Rod, can you clarify that?

Okay, it might take them a minute to 20.
