III. Old Business

·  Project status - K. Hunt distributed the September 2006 monthly status report.  The construction budget is $44,971,562, and project is considered 72% completed.

 

·  Cost and schedule update – K. Hunt brought to the Committee’s attention change orders for discussion.  A $9,160 charge for front entrance work was discussed.  It was decided to discuss this further with Dave Fortin present, and with drawings provided for a better understanding of the nature of the work performed.

 

Other change orders were discussed including an $11,016 charge for applying special epoxy to concrete slab in kitchen area before installing flooring.  C. Boos explained how moisture in concrete and other material would cause problems if not treated correctly.  The epoxy was a proven treatment for reducing moisture in the concrete.  There was a $3,313 charge for installing louvers above doors which, although on drawings, had not been delegated to a specific trade.  There was an $842 charge for roof patching due to damage sustained in an area with inadequate material to support foot traffic.  There was a $4,759 charge for additional trim work that had to be done on a new portion as opposed to a renovated area.  Chairman asked that KBA provide a sketch to better explain what occurred.  Chairman will contact Fire Marshall to find out why he recommended additional emergency lighting in the high school gym, which resulted in an additional cost of $2,740.

 

D. Dickson asked if dates or comments could be included in the change order portion of the report as a point of reference.

 

A motion to approve the change orders presented, except for the $9,160 change order until further information could be presented, was made by L. Sadler and seconded by R. Sadecki.  All in favor none opposed.  Motion carries.
