Joint discussion of funding for the UW-Baraboo/Sauk County science building.

The joint committees were provided an update on the status of the UW-Baraboo/Sauk County science building and the results of the bid process.  The low bid came in at $800,000 over the original budgeted amount.  It was noted that the original bid numbers were based on limited data that had not been updated in the four years since project planning began in earnest.  The original numbers also did not include or anticipate amphitheater space as part of the project.  The joint committees indicated that they did not want to sacrifice space or project aesthetic quality (value-added green roof and amphitheater space) and requested that more research be conducted with the architect prior to either accepting or rejecting all bids.

 

Motion by Lombard, second by Fordham to conduct inquiries with architect to ascertain if a rebid scenario will elicit bids within the budget parameters.

 

 

Public Comment:  None

 

Motion by Krueger, second by Czuprynko to adjourn the meeting.  Motion carried.

 

Respectfully submitted,
