The next regular meeting is scheduled for October 27, 2011. , New Business: WTI Report re: TRAC Conversion for Aguatic Center Mr. Strebel presented the Water Technology Inc (WTI) proposal for evaluation and design services for the potential conversion of the TRAC arena into an aquatic facility. Attention was directed to the Summary located on Page i of the Feasibility Report. Mr. Strebel stated the report reflected that the existing shell/barrier was not suita.ble for use as an aquatic center due to the chemicals used to treat the water; the HVAC system would need to be remodeled due to a new usage; and the concrete tie beams under the arena would need to be considered regarding any future structural changes. Mr. Dietrich shared 2 concerns: 1) Would the "barrier" be functional 10-years from now? 2) What is the anticipated remodel expense to the structure in order to accommodate an aquatic center? Dr. Jilek shared his concern regarding the image of an"arena" becoming an "aquatic center" — image is important and a different "curb appeal" should be considered. Something should be designed to retain attraction 10-years from now. Mr. Strebel stated he would contact the consultant regarding the questions. Board provided staff with general consensus to continue working with Franklin County regarding possible transfer of ownership of the TRAC facility.
