City staff say Schainker Plaza punch-list items resolved ahead of reinspection; ice ribbon work set for fall
Summary
Staff reported progress on Schainker Plaza corrective items, said the state reinspection was scheduled and that the contractor will replace a damaged walkway and undersized bike pads; the ice ribbon removal/replacement is scheduled September–November and the plaza may open after reinspection.
Parks/facilities staff told the Ames City Council that most remaining punch-list items at Schainker Plaza have been corrected and a state reinspection was scheduled for the afternoon following the meeting.
Staff reported corrections to spray-pad pump interlocks, recirculation rate adjustments, and pipe labeling; contractor Henkel will replace a damaged walkway near the food-truck area and will correct undersized bicycle concrete pads at no additional cost to the city. The ice ribbon replacement schedule submitted by Henkel shows removal beginning Sept. 1 with completion by Nov. 13, and the fence around the plaza perimeter was scheduled for removal after the reinspection and licensure.
Staff said a press release would be prepared after the reinspection confirms acceptance and that the city plans to open the plaza once state approval is obtained.
