Electronic Data Processing cards. ORIGINAL APPRAISAL SERVICE The original appraisal service would ,be rendered. in the following manner: Buildings -The building appraisal will be accomplished in two basic ways,' as follows: l.'Buildings constructed in recent years where cost data is available.'' . A. Our. basic field work and research will include a careful ', personal inspection of each structure, a review of the plans- and specifications, and a study of your historical. cost data. j. B. Our analysis of these data will include the deduction of j;' costs for items such as site clearance and preparation,. -' below ground utility services, off site utility costs, yard paving, sidewalks, fencing retaining walls and curbs, and like items that are not insurable under your fire policy. C. To the .resulting net building costs would be added other ,, costs such as Architects' fees, soil tests, supervision, .

Older buildings where proper cost data is not available: Because the value of the older buildings cannot be properly estimated by the method proposed above, we will prepare our standard form of ~• detailed quantitative estimate. This will include a listing o£ all building components by logical classifications such as excavation, foundation below ground, exterior walls, roof construction, lighting, plumbing, heating, etc. All items of construction will be priced on the basis o£ new replacement cost today. It is understood that if the allocation of arty building or buildings cannot be done in a sound manner, this building will be fully detailed in the manner outlined above. Equipment We will complete a personal inspection and inventory o£ all City owned equipment. This inventory will be prepared by buildings, rooms, and other appropriate locational headings. APPRAISAL REPORT The appraisal report will be submitted in book form and will include a recapitulation showing construction and equipment values by location for each building. The report will also include descriptions and. values of each structure and a complete print-out of all equipment listed in the card system. This print-out will be indexed by buildings and will show New Replacement Cost for each item or group of minor items. A separate booklet containing a duplicate recapitulation will be submitted far use of your Insurance Broker or others who do not require. the fully detailed report. PROPERTY CONTROL SYSTEM The equipment inventory will be presented on Electronic Data Processing caa•ds, complete with both visual and punched information. It will be ap- ::prapriately tabbed by locations and classifications and submitted in at- '" tractive steel card file drawers. The equipment will fall into two categories, and will be described on one or the other of the following types of cards: A., Uriit Control Cards (Yellow) These cards will each contain the record of one unit of property which we feel at the time of preparation was subject to individual identification, such as type- - writers and other business machines; principal shop equipment items, etc. ["- I :., ;~.i i. r;; .,City of Chula Vista -3- December 16,.1964 Card Layout 1.Description , 2.

This fee estimate includes provision for out of town living expenses, transportation and all other costs.
