Wendell Williams, Williams Constructions, appeared before the Board submitting an application for a Class C-1 License and Certificate. Boardmember Johnson asked Mr. Williams if the work he did was primarily tenant finish, structural, or ground up. He stated his work in Denver has primarily been tenant finish because of the economic market. Boardmember Allison questioned Mr. Williams about his experience with C-1 work. Mr. Williams stated his firm had added 500 square feet to a sports facility in Denver and a 10,000 square foot building for an electric company. Boardmember Cotterman asked if Mr. Williams held the licenses listed on the application. Mr. Williams stated he did, except one, and that was held by his father. Boardmember Sinnett moved that Wendell Williams be approved to test for a C-1 license and certificate. In addition the Board will require one more C-1 reference before a license will be issued. Boardmember Cotterman seconded the motion. The motion passed. R. Thomas Jordan appeared before the Board submitting an appeal for a class B license and certificate. Mr. Jordan stated he brought in one additional reference. Boardmember Sutton stated from the references received Mr. Jordan had foreman experience, not management experience and needed management experience to qualify for a B license. Boardmember Sinnett stated Mr. Jordan was asking for a contractors license in Fort Collins, yet the references show no office management. Boardmember Allison stated Mr. Jordan had experience with single story structures, and one 4 story building in Cheyenne. Boardmember Cornell asked if Mr. Jordan has experience running his own business. Mr. Jordan stated he owned his own business for two years, 1985-1986, and had four employees. Boardmember Cotterman asked Mr. Jordan if he anticipated B work in the future in Fort Collins. Mr. Jordan stated he did not, but wanted to obtain the B license for future work. Boardmember Johnson questioned Mr. Jordan regarding his work on the Psychiatric Hospital in Cheyenne. He coordinated the mechanical tradesman. Boardmember Allison stated he saw no change in the application from last month. Mr. Jordan asked if his references qualified him for a Class B Certificate rather than license and certificate. Boardmember Sutton stated the Board required five references for B work, and this Board did not have five references for B work, and no, he would not qualify for a B certificate. Boardmember Sinnett moved to deny Mr. Jordan a Class B license and certificate. Boardmember Johnson seconded the motion. The motion passed. Richard Rhea of Universal Constructors submitted an application for a Class A license. After reviewing the references the Board decided his references reflected C-2 experience. Boardmember Johnson moved to approve Richard Rhea for a Class C-2 license and certificate. The motion was seconded and passed. Warren Jones from the Poudre Fire Authority appeared before the Board with information regarding the Hazardous Materials Risk Reduction Program. Basically he noted two changes, the 1991 UFC, article 80 and the UBC 1991, chapter 9. The Poudre Fire Authority is asking for endorsement from the Building Review Board to adopt these changes. The Board held a discussion with Warren Jones and Ron Gonzales, Hazard Material Specialist, regarding what changes will directly affect contractors. Boardmember Sinnett moved to endorse the changes in the 1991 UBC, chapter 9 and 1991 UFC Article 80. Boardmember Sutton seconded the motion. The motion passed. A revised contractor's licensing application was distributed to the Board for their review. It was decided to table this discussion until next month when Felix Lee would be present.
