Construction Committee
Roehll reported that plans have been adjusted due to all the recent rain. If
the crews can get back in synch with the timetable, the plan is to be
substantially completed by May 20, 2019 and to schedule a grand opening
event in late May.
4. Moser Tower Assessment - Bill Novack
Schweitzer commented that she would like to see additional information
regarding the decommissioning of the tower to show more parity when
comparing costs between repairing the structure and decommissioning it.
She stated that if the structure isn’t taken down for 30 years, the cost to
maintain the structure in the interim should be included in the
decommissioning cost. She would also like to see the rationale clearly
stated regardless of which recommendation is made.
Novack explained that local quality control/quality assurance experts have
suggested that there should be additional modeling done to complete the
structural assessment. The modeling would include a dynamic analysis of
the structure and explore how the structure functions under different
circumstances at specific stress points. The additional investigation is
expected to take approximately six weeks.
E. NEW BUSINESS:
1. Riverwalk Development Guidelines - Bill Novack
The Riverwalk Development Guidelines will be updated this year. A
subcommittee will meet on May 14, 2019 to begin the process.
2. Thank You Jeanne Buddingh - Geoff Roehll
Buddingh will be retiring from the Riverwalk Commission at the end of this
month. Roehll thanked her for her dedicated service to the Riverwalk and
the Naperville community. Her expertise in spearheading the work on the
Riverwalk survey was noted as especially important.
