Assessment building over $40,000
more than estimated at June session
GODERICH--Huron County
Council, at a special session in
Goderich Tuesday afternoon of
last week authorized the warden
and clerk to sign a general
building contract with Monteith
-McGrath Limited, Waterloo,
to erect a new county assess-
ment building at a stipulated
sum of $115,365 plus extra costs
of $19, 013 for a total of $134, -
. 378.
'The two-storey structure will
be built on county -owned prop-
erty adja&nt to the county jail
in Goderich. Work will start .
this 'fall.
Originally, four general con-
tractors submitted the -following
bids; Monteith -McGraw, Wa-
terloo, $139,501; Refflinghaus
Construction Co. Limited, God-
erich, $151, 798; Dietrich and
Koehler, Waterloo, $157,765;
Logan Construction, Stratford,
$157, 720.
'the Property Committee met
and authorized the architect,
Don Snider, of, Heeet and Sni-
der, Waterloo, to interview the
low bidder in connection with
the building.to try and arrive at
a lower contract figure. As a
result, the committee agreed to
certain changes in foundation
and exterior trim which would
result in a decrease of $7, 986.
The "extras" totalling $19, -
013 comprise; air conditioning,
$6,800; paving, $2,850; land-
scaping, $500; architect fees,
$8,163; audit and legal fees,
$7q0.
The Property Committee re-
port carried on"a recorded di-
vision of 30-8, those voting
against being Carl Dalton a nd
W. J. Cuthill, Seaforth; James
Armstrong and Gordon Lawson,
Clinton; J. P. Alexander, Wing -
ham; Borden Cook, Blyth; Hugh
Flynn, Hullett; and Kenneth
Stewart, McKillop.
The new building will pro-
vide space for the County As
sessment Department and future
expansion of other county de-
partments.
Harry Worrell, Goderich,
committee chairman, presented
the report.
• Elgin Thompson, Tucker -
smith. who acted as chairman."
for discussion in committee of
the whole council, asked Clerk -
Treasurer J. G. Berry" what the
building might be used for.
Mr. Barry replied that the
new County Planning Boa rd
would need space and when the
administration of justice depart-
ment required more space in the
county house proper, then other
offices might be moved there.
The entire ground floor will be
occupied by the assessment de-
partment making the second
floor available for the above
purposes.
Carl Dalton, Seaforth, re-
called that when Council de-
cided at the June session to go
ahead with the new building,
the estimated cost provided was
about $90, 000 whereas the pres-
ent figure was about 50 percent
higher.
Kenneth Stewart, McKillop,
also stressed this great disparity
between estimated cost and act-
ual cost, and as far as could see
the ultimate cost might reach
$175,000 or over with extras
that might crop up frbm time to
time.
" Aren't we entitled to some
firm answer for this increase of
$40,000?" he asked.
Don Snider, the architect,
fielded this question by stating
that the only answer was that
the sub -trade prices on the con-
tract were higher than the gen-
eral contractor thought they
would be, "I think the build-
ing will be just right for the pur-
poses for which it is intended,"
he added.
Wilmer Hardy, Colborne,
asked if the time of year might
make some difference in con-
tract prices. . In the busiest con-
struction eason, prices seemed
to be higher.
Mr. Snider replied that if
the contract was re -tendered
later in the year, the price
might change, but he felt that
the fall was a good time to start
as the building could .be com-
pletely enclosed before bad
weather arrived.
Roy V. Pattison, East Wa -
wanosh, thought the longer you
waited, the more expensive it
would be.
Clarence Boyle, Exeter,
`'pointed out that the new build-
ing would provide for extra ex-
pansion.
Clifford Dunbar, 'Gray, stated
that in 1962, when a new build-
ing was proposed at an estimat-
ed cost of $200,000, it was
turned down. Construction costs
were not 1 i k c 1 y to get any
cheaper.
The Property Committee re-
ported awarding a contract for
installing two new boilers in the
Court House to Percy Clark of
Wingham, at $8,650 after re-
vised tenders were called when
the first were too high.
