PWCH-iAMBERof <br />COMMERCE <br />March 14, 2017 <br />I=tas County Conference of Governments <br />c/o Board of Kittitas County Commissioners <br />205 W. 5th, suite 108 <br />Ellensburg, WA 98925 <br />Re. Change to COG Funding for Ellensburg Incubator Building <br />Dear Conference of Governments: <br />In October 2016; The Conference of Governments awarded $63,000 to the City of Ellensburg for roof <br />replacement at the City's Ellensburg Business Incubator, 1000 prospect Street. The Chamber <br />administers the building for the City. As work is about to commence, the final bid for the project has <br />come In about $10,000 dollars less than the initial bid that was approved by COG. <br />City Manager John Akers and I see this as an opportunity to replace the building's antiquated and leaky <br />swamp coolers, which frankly should have been included in the initial request to COG. The coolers are <br />Integrated into the roof structure and replacement with new coolers at later time Will require opening <br />the new roof in at least 5 locations. It will also cost considerably more. We therefore request that any <br />surplus funds on the project be approved for replacement of swamp coolers concurrent with the roofing <br />Installation. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jim A ng <br />C.E.O. <br />Jim Mittitascountychamber.com <br />609 N MAIN STREET 1 ELLENSBURG, WA 98925 1 OrriCE: SW -S25-2002 1 TOLL FREE: 888-925.2204 1 FAX: 509-962-6248 <br />trdo@kkdtescountychembercom I www.k1L;raswuntycnsmbsrxW. <br />
