  B. Review of Administration Building Schedule
   

Review of Administration Building development schedule with milestone dates for:

 

  • selection of pre-construction contractor.  WKA and Dan would recommend they spend time to evaluate the proposals and provide a recommendation to the Committee/Board.     
  • finalization of plans for permit, bidding.  October 14th is the date for release of drawings for competitive bidding by three general contractors.
  • bidding of construction.  November 4th is the date for submission of proposals from three general contractors
  • Go/No-Go decision on Admin Building.  End of November Board Meeting.  

Board may consider, instead of Administration Building, authorizing a leased mobile classroom building.  Dan is preparing an cost budget for this option, using an actual proposal from one or more vendors in this business, and utilizing WKA to understand the site preparation work to be done in such a case.  

III. Other Business
  A. Other Design Costs for consideration
   

Can Committee authorize the $6,600 savings against authorized capital spending to be applied against the cost of the Gates installed on campus near the Middle School?  This will help to protect the Repair budget, which is under strain.  

 

Additional MEP engineering services connected with re-design of mechanical spaces in former Garage of Admin Building. WKA to explain and provide cost information updates in Meeting.  

  B. Environmental Subcommittee Report
   

Environmental subcommittee voted to approve the $9,400 cost for additional civil engineering services, through WKA.
