Water Tower Painting – At the September 5^th meeting Koehler questioned the length of the warranty and John Brockmann suggested the tower be sandblasted prior to painting.  Stagg reported he received written responses from the three companies that provided bids on the north water tower painting.  The responses were as follows:

• The exterior coatings will last at least 10 – 15 years.
• Warranty on workmanship is one year, which is also the industry standard.
• Sandblasting would add an unneeded, additional cost of $150,000 – $200,000. All three companies stated sandblasting is not necessary at this time and it would not provide additional longevity to the exterior coating.
