Hello Patrick,

So, the $3,900 difference is to take the soil/plants out and not re-install
both.

There's no point in us accepting this rate as the original quote included
both taking the soil/plants out and putting them both in.

To members of the EC and Patrick:

1. We are waiting for responses to this requote from Matt, Barney, Robin and
Brookes. Please provide your response.

2. I would like to recommend that we take the soil/plants out and cover each
of the planter box areas.  An engineer could assist us with some type of
covering (which is obviously stable) because every 5 years we go through do
the same exercise in the planter boxes, because of membrane cracking.  The
covering should be easily removable if the membrane cracks again and new
membrane simply applied.  This avoids the costs we are going through if the
membrane fails again (and soil/plants have to come out and be re-installed).
Patrick - your ideas on this please.

Regards,

Craig Laforest

Hi Craig,

Please refer to my email below, where I state that the soil and plants would
be removed by Preservation Technologies and NOT replaced by them only.

The reduction in cost is only for Preservation Technologies to NOT replace
the soil and plants.

Kind regards,

Patrick Rush

Request for Approval & Meeting Minutes 07.07.17

Hello Patrick,

I've looked at the numbers and don't understand why there is only a $3900 +
GST difference approximately between the two quotes from Preservation
Technology.

1.  Your email today (Aug01) states the cost for the extra membrane works
(without taking out plants/soil nor replanting plants/soil) is $56,700 + GST
approx

2. Your email dated July 25 states the cost for the extra membrane works
(includes taking out and replacing plants/soil) is $60,600 + GST approx

The difference we are saving on point one is only $3,900 + GST approx. to
have someone else to take out the soil/plants and replace them.

I'm stunned that the difference is so small considering the taking
out/replacement of soil/plants is such a long process.  Would you please ask
Preservation Technology to explain why this is the case,  as soon as
possible and get back to the EC.

Thanks and regards,
Craig Laforest

Dear Committee,

Please see the amended variation if the soil and plants were to be removed
from both planter boxes, waterproofing carried out but no soil or plants
replaced -

Preservation Technology have provided the following:

*	Additional cost to remove and replace on completion the remaining
plants and soil, prepare the substrate and install a 2 layer bitumen torch
on membrane system to terrace above unit 601 - $23,317 + GST.
*	Additional cost to remove and replace on completion the remaining
plants and soil, prepare the substrate and install a 2 layer bitumen torch
on membrane system to terrace above unit 602 - $33436 + GST

Can you please advise if you are happy to approve the above variations to
the original contract or would you prefer to have this matter added to the
AGM Agenda for the meeting to be held Wednesday 23rd August 2017?

Note that if the decision is held over to the AGM that no further works will
proceed.

Hi Craig,

Please see my responses below to your queries/statements which have
previously been answered -

1.	Non-evasive plants can be chosen and planted in the planter box that
should not affect the waterproofing in the planter box. This can also be
assisted by a gardener continually trimming the plants to ensure the roots
do not grow further and damage the waterproofing. A
landscaper/horticulturist will be able to assist with the finer details.

Any storage area for water from rain or a sprinkler system, which the box
area of the plants basically are, provide a definite build-up and as we've
seen over time, the membrane simply doesn't withstand the water.. and
penetration occurs.  This is the second time in the 10 years I have been
living in the Marquis that the planter boxes have failed.  Why even put
plants and soil back in, only to have them taken out the next time the
membrane fails? The cost of taking the soil and the plants out is extremely
high and we simply cannot afford to keep doing this every 5 years.

2.	These items cannot be removed with a Special resolution at a General
Meeting as this would be a change/amendment to common property.

Then lets sort out how to get them at whatever meeting is required.  What
meeting do we need to get them out?  The combination of flat roofs on
apartments and planter boxes simply don't work together.

3.	This would likely require a Development Application and would also
require a Special Resolution at a General Meeting.

Let's investigate this for the future.  In 5 years time, we will most
probably run up against the same problem we've had for the last ten years
(with 2 planter boxes completely being resurfaced) and at an increased cost.
The water penetration issue from level 7 onto my terrace has been a
nightmare for 10 years and having gone through this problem twice, I'll have
no other option than to go back to Tribunal to deal with the matter
immediately.

Items 2 & 3 are not items that can be actioned quickly, these would take
some time to approve and have carried out.

Then let's get them actioned as soon as we can.

Kind regards,

Patrick Rush

Subject: Amendments to my email sent yesterday July 25, 2017 re level 7
works

To the EC,

We have just received an updated quote from Preservation Technologies to
'complete' the extra works on level 7. Once again, I will state for the
record.. to replant is ridiculous.

We went through this problem 7 years ago and will most probably go through
the same issue in another 7 years..at a similar cost (original cost as per
Preservation Technologies first quote, PLUS the cost of now taking out the
extra 2/3 of planter boxes above apartments 601 and 602 and redepositing
plants/soil and extra membrane) ..if soil is tossed back in and plants are
added.  Expansion, cracking and water are the worst elements for planter
boxes.  Everyone has heard some sort of story that it is not effective to
cover roofs with planter boxes.

Also, repairing split pipes for the sink and BBQ which are NEVER used on
level 7, is really not worthy of consideration.

My recommendations:

1) Do not replant in the planter boxes

2) Remove the BBQ and Sink

3) Engage an engineer/obtain city permits to cover level 7 (as soon as
possible in the future) to protect our building investment from future
rain/water and sun damage.

I recommend further that we discuss this matter urgently before further
works resume.

Hi Patrick,
 Thanks for the follow up. I agree with the engineer that we are better off
going for 2 Layer Torch on so as to improve the life. We previously got less
then 10 years out of the Liquid for the cost It would be nice to get a
longer period. 

Thanks for trying to save us some money Patrick on re-establishing the
garden. We can use every saving we can.

Dear Committee,

Please see below the responses from the questions posed by Craig from the
Engineers that I received on Friday 21st July 2017 -

1.	Can we get comment from the engineer on their recommendation torch
on vs liquid membrane? 

          The liquid membrane is suitable but the torch on membrane offers a
longer lifespan.

2.	Refer to the tenders which Patrick Rush sent to us on Dec01, 2016  -
the differences in how much soil/plants had to be taken out vary
significantly in size and cost. Based on what is in green below, all planter
boxes should be emptied and new membrane put in. The existing planter box
membrane has been proven to be deteriorated

I have just spoken with Chris, the contractor from Preservation
Technologies, and he has advised me that he has been told by the Engineer to
only take out 5 metres of the plants from level 7 instead of the full
length.  He is stunned, as am I, as to why only 5 metres is to be taken out
and a new membrane put down on this length only.  I have stalactites hanging
toward the other end of the planter box, nowhere near the area where plants
have been taken out.  Can you investigate and explain please asap.

The planter boxes were flood tested by Cutler and Wright at the start of the
year and found to not cause any leaks into the below units. Only 5m of the
planters were removed to physically examine the condition of the
waterproofing. If the waterproofing was found to be adequate no further work
would be needed, saving the SC from these additional cost. However, the
physical examination of the planter boxes showed the waterproofing has in
fact deteriorated and would need replacement. Therefore this has been added
to the meeting minutes as a consideration for the SC. The SC can decide if
they would like to proceed with waterproofing the planter boxes at a
variation cost to be provided by Prestech. 

          Preservation Technology have provided the following:

*	Additional cost to remove and replace on completion the remaining
plants and soil, prepare the substrate and install a 2 layer bitumen torch
on membrane system to terrace above unit 601 - $25,237 + GST.
*	Additional cost to remove and replace on completion the remaining
plants and soil, prepare the substrate and install a 2 layer bitumen torch
on membrane system to terrace above unit 602 - $35,356 + GST

3.	What does our engineer suggest we do for 2 or 3 layer torchings?

          I suggest the two layer for cost reasons only.

I have requested an urgent quote for just removing the soil form the planter
boxes and undertaking the waterproofing rectification as it is likely less
expensive to have a landscaper/gardener reinstate the planter boxes as per
the discussion on site during their meeting to approve Preservation
Technologies tender.

I will advise on the amended quotes from the above once received from
Preservation Technologies through the Engineers.

Hello Patrick and EC members,

I recommend the following:

1.  Refer to the tenders which Patrick Rush sent to us on Dec01, 2016  - the
differences in how much soil/plants had to be taken out vary significantly
in size and cost. Based on what is in green below, all planter boxes should
be emptied and new membrane put in. The existing planter box membrane has
been proven to be deteriorated...this was exactly the same situation about 5
years ago.  Ridiculous that our engineer (after visiting my home at least 3
times) and seeing stalactites all the way along the edge of the overhang,
didn't state to each of the companies which submitted tenders that all the
planter boxes should be emptied and new membrane installed.

2. I do not agree with Matt that all north facing balconies need to be
repaired.  We have had notice of one recently and we should treat each
separately as each becomes critical.   Are there any other balconies which
are in a dire situation? I haven't heard of any.  Have you Patrick been
informed of any?

3. What does our brilliant engineer suggest we do for 2 or 3 layer torchings
(below)?  I'm not an expert in this regard.

Would all kind members of the EC respond asap.

Hi Patrick,
 Can we get comment from the engineer on their recommendation torch on vs
liquid membrane.  Also how does this sit within the budget given the works
on P4 and also very likely works to all the north facing balcony's. 

Can we also get approval from the rest of the group regarding the engineers
inspection of the north facing balcony's which seem to have the same problem
as the roof.

Dear Committee,

See attached the minutes of the meetings on site by Strata Engineering
Solutions.

The 1st set of minutes state that a variations was required on the
demolition costs due to the additional work required to dispose of building
material such as insulation, chicken wire, etc. As stated below and in the
attached minutes this variation was required and the cost is highlighted
below in blue as being $8,500.00 + GST (Variation 1).

The 2nd set of minutes states that an additional variation will be required
for the membrane to be installed on the podium as it was originally thought
the membrane installed was not a torch on membrane and a cheaper option
could be installed.

Please review the below information, highlighted in green and confirm if you
would prefer to go with Variation 2 or 3 for a torch on membrane with the
only difference being the life span of the membrane for an additional layer
for double the price?

Variation 2 -Extra over cost to install 2 layer torch on membrane instead of
liquid membrane would be $4,981 + GST 

Variation 3 - Extra over cost to install 3 layer torch on membrane instead
of liquid membrane would be $8,331 + GST 

At this stage and until a decision on the above is made work at the property
has ceased.

Paul McKay will be attending the property in the coming days to provide
further feedback on the planter boxes and if the waterproofing in these is
required to be rectified.

Please urgently advise on the above which will ultimately cause the attached
schedule to be ameneded again?

Subject: SP 67851 - URGENT Variations 2 & 3 Request for Approval & Meeting
Minutes 07.07.17
Importance: High

Hi Tanaz,

Before I send the below and attached to the Committee, can you please
confirm the cost of Variation 1 and what this was for?

Cost for disposal of the additional building material (i.e. insulation,
chicken wire and drainage cell) $8,500+GST

Can you provided an updated work schedule?

Prestech will update their work schedule based on the SC determining what
work they would like us to proceed with. 

Can you also advise on the below comments from an Owner that received
yesterday -

I have just spoken with Chris, the contractor from Preservation
Technologies, and he has advised me that he has been told by the Engineer to
only take out 5 metres of the plants from level 7 instead of the full
length.  He is stunned, as am I, as to why only 5 metres is to be taken out
and a new membrane put down on this length only.  I have stalactites hanging
toward the other end of the planter box, nowhere near the area where plants
have been taken out.  Can you investigate and explain please asap.

The planter boxes were flood tested by Cutler and Wright at the start of the
year and found to not cause any leaks into the below units. Only 5m of the
planters were removed to physically examine the condition of the
waterproofing. If the waterproofing was found to be adequate no further work
would be needed, saving the SC from these additional cost. However, the
physical examination of the planter boxes showed the waterproofing has in
fact deteriorated and would need replacement. Therefore this has been added
to the meeting minutes as a consideration for the SC. The SC can decide if
they would like to proceed with waterproofing the planter boxes at a
variation cost to be provided by Prestech. 

Kind regards,

Patrick Rush

Subject: FW: SP67851 Terrace Remediation - meeting minutes 28 June 

Hi Patrick/Darren,

Can you please pass on the variation cost of applying a torch-on membrane to
the terrace slab, as per the prices below. The amounts provided by Prestech
is an addition to the current contract sum. 

V2 includes 2 layers of torch-on membrane, while V3 is 3 layers of torch-on
membrane; with the only different being an additional service life.

The scope has specified a liquid membrane. Given that a torch-on membrane
was found on the slab after demolition we have decided to consider this
option, and would also potentially have a longer manufacturers warrantee. If
the SC could please advise if they would like us to proceed with this
variation, and if so which option, or maintain the current scope with the
liquid applied membrane?

Is there any further update on whether the SC have decided to reinstate the
insulation on the terrace slab?

Regards,

Tanaz
