Cottage Street School (Heery, Strekalovsky and Hoit)
Construction and Budget Status: Mr. Feeney gave an overview of the construction project at the Cottage Street School. The punch list work is progressing on a limited basis to prevent disruption to school operations. The asbestos abatement work is competed. DF Pray is doing the demolition work. There was discussion regarding the submission of an updated schedule. Chairman Wolk asked if there were any unanswered submittals. The school administration at Cottage put together a list of "punch list" items in the new building. This list was forwarded to the architect for inclusion in the master punch list. The exposed heating pipe in the faculty bathroom will be enclosed at no cost. The wetland's review will take place when the weather improves. The
MCAS dates have been submitted to the contractor. The project completion date is scheduled for August 2003.
Potential Change Orders: The committee reviewed the PCO log that was prepared by Heery. A change order will be presented to the committee at the next meeting.
East Elementary School: (Heery, Strekalovsky and Hoit)
Construction and Budget Status: Mr. Collins gave an overview of the construction project at East Elementary School. The installation of the roofing for the addition is 90% complete. The contractor has installed a temporary heater to thaw the ground so that the slab work can begin. The contractor submitted a proposed schedule for work to be performed at the spring break. This schedule is being reviewed by the construction manager, architect and school administration. The committee discussed various phasing options. Chairman Wolk asked Heery to submit a proposal for managing the move. This will be an additional service to the Heery contract.
Color Selection: The color meeting was held and many selections were made. A color board will be prepared and stored in the construction trailer.
Potential Change Orders: The committee reviewed the PCO log that was prepared by Heery. There was discussion regarding technology at the CHARMS wing. There will be a life safety issue if the intercom system between the school schools is disconnected. Member Kennedy asked the architect to review the cost impact to install a sprinkler system at the CHARMS School. It was a consensus of the committee to ask the architect to develop a proposal to install sprinklers in this portion of the building. This could be result in a credit because the proposed firewall would be deleted. The committee requested this proposal be made available for action at the first meeting in May. There was request from an abutter to increase the height of the fence at the property line. A
price request will be generated.
Middle School Update: Kaestle Boos Associates submitted a construction price for the Phase 0 renovation work. The School Committee is reviewing all options of the Middle School Project.
High School Update: Member Lurie will be meeting with the school administration regarding the closeout of this project.
This portion of the meeting ended at 8:30pm. The next meeting is scheduled for April 1, 2003 at the Sharon Public Library.
Respectfully submitted,
Maureen R. Doherty - Recording Secretary
