Discussion of Proposed Budget Adjustment to the Eccles Theater Carpet Replacement Project to be Funded from Capital Reserve Fund- Angela Vanderwell, Matt Castillo Prior to this meeting, the Budget materials were emailed to the Board for their review listing the following information. Eccles Theater requests a budget adjustment for $176K to increase the Carpet Replacement Capital Project, funded by the Eccles Theater Capital Reserve account. Due to construction cost inflation, the final estimate for carpet replacement is higher, 8-12% per year from the original quote in 2023 based on materials selected. The timeline was sent to the Board, as well as the project cost overview. Summer 2024: Design process and initial carpet selection. August 2024 - January 2025: Stakeholder input, design review/update, cost review. February 2025: Construction bid. June - July 2025: Venue shutdown (required), carpet replacement August 2025: Venue re-open for scheduled events. Project cost overview showed charges for: Architect/Design, Carpet & Installation, 10% Contingency, Updated Carpet project total, 2024 approved budget - Carpet project, and Budget adjustment. Mr. Castillo gave a brief overview of this project which was initiated in 2023 by notifying key stakeholders. It continued with architectural input, the selection committee, and now with the ordering of the carpet for installation scheduled for June and July 2025. As the final selection was made at the beginning of this year, the quotes came back significantly higher for carpet and materials than anticipated. We are putting forward a budget request for $176K to cover the increase. Many cost-saving measures were considered to minimize the increased cost. The Board was advised of those measures. With this project, a new carpet will be installed in the Eccles Theater lobby and Delta Hall, replacing the failing/worn-looking carpet that might create safety hazards of possible tripping/falling. When the carpet was purchased, the lifespan provided to us was 10-15 years. The current carpet is 10 years, so it is failing in the early range. We looked at some mixtures of materials, or higher quality materials that the replacement carpet should have, giving it a longer lifespan to 15 years, and it has a 15-year warranty. Once the Board approves this request, it will move to the County Council for approval. We have a very healthy Capital Reserve fund; we feel that based on our fiscal analysis we have the funding to cover this request. The floor was open for discussion, questions and feedback. Questions were asked and answered. Ms. Bruno moved the request to approve the Budget adjustment. Ms. Darby-Duffin moved to second. Unanimously approved. Meeting adjourned at 8:46am. Next Meeting: April 24,2025 2025 Meeting Schedule All meetings start at 9:00am and are held in the O.C. Tanner Lounge at the Eccles Theater with a Web-Ex option.
