3. DPW Steel Building

Chair Gladstone and Eric Hooper, DPW Superintendent, have had discussions regarding the DPW Steel Building and how the Sharon Standing Building Committee (SSBC) should or if they should be involved in the construction of same.

Mr. Hopper has looked at the SSBC Guidelines for Feasibility Studies and feels that DPW has met the thirteen (13) scopes of services which are in the study.  He has also sent out the plans to several fabricators for them to come up with their ideas of what DPW has asked for in this building.  The excavation will be done by DPW.   Mr. Hooper also presented the floor plans of the building.  The sprinkler, electrical and heat were sent out as a separate bid.  Chair Gladstone asked Mr. Hooper to supply the specs and plans to him electronically so he can distribute to the SSBC.

Bob White will look into M.G.L. Chapter 149 (4) “Procuring Modular Construction”.

SSBC would like to have just one person to manage the work on the Steel Building  rather than having different contractors do the project.  Chair Gladstone would like to see an independent professional architect review the specs and plans.

DPW Superintendent, Eric Hooper, to meet with the SSBC at 7:10 p.m. on July 10, 2012 for further discussion on the DPW Steel Building.

The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m. (Slater/Tuck) – unanimous
