4. Hayes Community Center. .
Committee Members reviewed the letter from Cording� Natwick, Hilbert Arehiteat
in which areas which could possibly be changed to reduce building costs on
the Hayes Park Gommunity Center were listed. The feelings of the Park
Committee regarding these various suggestions follow:
1. EZiminate the- all-purpose room: this item could be used as a deduct
alternate; the Committee wauld prefer not to do this as it is felt this
is a needed room.
2. Eliminate the skylight from the corridor in front of the gymnasium.
The Committee did not feel this cost was substantial and would prefer
nat to eliminate this item.
3. Reduce the size of the gymnasium either in length or width or both.
The Committee felt the gym could be reduced, but only minimually;
therefore, they would prefer not to have the size ehanged.
4. Reduce the si2e of the playroom. The Committee did not feel this
should be done.
5. Eliminate the locker room� shower and toilet room fbut code requires
toilet facilities). The Committee felt the locker room and shower Bhould
remain.
The Committee carefully reviewed these items and felt that Item #'i as a
deduct alternate would be the area of most fZexibility; the need for
restrooras was verified a s well as the other items listed.
