WATER TREATMENT FACrLrrY/WELLS PROJECT
Design Proposal — The MBC previously determined that the original price proposal
($520,000) as submitted by Woodard & Curran to provide Engineering Design Services
related to construction of a new water treatment facility and upgrade of the Dustin Well
No.7, and Prescott Well No, 7, No.8 and No.9 was unacceptable. Committee members
met with Woodard & Curran that evening to negotiate a more reasonable price.
Based on input from MBC Chairman and Water Operations Manager, Doug Reed
reviewed design modifications made from Woodard & Curt-an's original proposal in an
effort to reduce cost.
• W &C was able to make a major reduction in cost by eliminating plans for
underground backwasb/water storage tank for the water treatment facility and
replace it with design of an above - ground tank system utilizing a foundation,
concrete slab on grade.
• W &C presented a breakdown of 4,900 estimated man -hours by discipline as
requested by the MBC. (Manhours for geotechnical survey were not included.)
• Regarding number of client meetings, W &C acknowledged they expect to meet
occasionally with other Board/Committees as necessary (i.e Board of Selectman)
at no additional cost.
• CDM acknowledged mutual goal to maintain low number of change orders. Herb
Zeller suggested a future meeting be scheduled with members of the MBC to
discuss conceptual designs. Mr. Zeller showed several samples of architectural
design in other communities. Members favored the design of a water treatment
facility in Lawrence, MA as an option that could be appropriate for Mansfield.
• Doug Reed presented a revised contract between the Town of Mansfield and
Woodard and Curran in the amount of $480.000 for approval consideration.
MOTION to accept the revised price proposal for design services dated October 1,
2002 as submitted by Woodard & Curran in the amount of $480,000.00.

MANSFIELD HIGH SCHOOL
Electrical/HVAC - MBC discussed the need to close out incomplete electrical and
HVAC contract items as soon as possible. John Callahan indicated in a previous
correspondence with WC that the Town could complete the remaining work and deduct
that value from the remaining monies owed. Rich Feeley suggested MBC forward a
letter to School Building and Grounds Office authorizing School Dept. to coordinate
completion of outstanding contract work at the high school on the condition that the
Bldg. & Grounds Office documents and submits receipts for all material and labor to the
MBC as back up.
• Electrical - MBC would deduct value up to $10,000 for electrical work from JTC.
• HVAC — MBC would deduct a value up to $15,000 to replace missing unit
ventilator No. 3 and/or associated work. '
