001Pat's on Zoom. Donna is here, which we bless all the time. Thank God. >> Thank God. Robin is on Zoom. John Kusco is on Zoom. And Ellen is here. Dave is here. Maxerio is here. Uh And that's it. >> Yes. Yes. How about to Is she still in Maine? >> She's in Maine. Yes, she is. Yeah. >> Okay. Carry on. Do >> I have a motion to approve the agenda? >> I'll move to Casey. >> Casey and Ellen. >> All in favor? I opposed. Okay. >> Next the minutes. approved. >> Ellen is approving >> my house last night. >> Second and the minutes. Second Mario. >> Any discussion? All in favor? >> I opposed. Open participation. Nope. Okay, Mike Z a second time. >> Second time. >> You're uh uh >> Mikey, could I stop
002you one second? Yeah. >> Going back to the minutes. >> Sorry. >> Did we Don, is this accurate? Number 12. I thought we'd mentioned the Friday after Thanksgiving for an open house, but I could be wrong. >> I don't think so. >> Was it Saturday? I think I think that's what that's what I recall, but I don't have a >> Yeah, cuz I thought people thought it might conflict with the night light up main or >> Oh, the downtown thing. >> Yeah. >> Oh, lighting play if you light up. >> But it that was my recollection. >> Okay. Okay. You No problem. >> Watch the watch the court over there. >> Y's here. Okay. We have time to Okay, Mikey. Okay, Mike. >> Right in the mask. Okay. >> Uh, hi everyone again. Um, get
003into it. Um, with respect to the occupied portion in the construction tech lab down in the high school lower level. Uh, the dust collection system startup is scheduled for later this month um for full operation. Um, now that the school has been out for the summer, we have been we turned the middle school cafeteria that we were temporarily um being used as a wait room during the January occupancy um for the high school students, we had turned that into now a permanent cafeteria space for the middle school students. Um, additionally in the occupied limits of the middle school building, um, addition, sorry. Um, in the occupied limits of the middle school building on the first floor, there are two STEM and maker space rooms, uh, where the pipe grid system wasn't complete during the January
004occupancy. Uh and since school has been out, part of those ceilings have been removed. Um so we could facilitate the installation of the pipe grid system and then they will eventually be reinstalled uh for permanent use ahead of the phase 2 uh to be uh upcoming school year occupancy. Um in addition, temporary walls that we had used and constructed uh to separate the high school occupancy from the middle school construction phase uh have been taken down and the permanent uh walls and doors are now in place. Um, speaking on the upcoming middle school building turnover, this space has been receiving furniture for over a month and um, has been shaping up for its intended use for the school year. In the last few weeks, we have been compiling all the necessary documentation required to slam
005the designers and then the building department uh, in preparation of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the uh, middle school building limits. Uh this will allow the administration and all the necessary entities to have adequate time to prepare for the upcoming school year in a new building. Um while that covers the building aspect for substantial completion of the middle school, the site work, pumminous asphalt and concrete making up the permanent middle school parking lot and access to the building is in progress. Uh we currently have an asphalt paving date of August 11th weather pending and we intend to go for another substantial completion request uh for those aspects of site work shortly thereafter. Uh concurrently with that discussions and sign off from PNZ will occur. On the slide here is some progress related to the
006cold form metal framing and rough carpentry associated with the gymnasium vestibule. If you recall, the shell of this vestibil will eventually be constructed as a curtain mall system uh with the lobby being constructed as one long storefront system filled with glass. Um same area just east of that lobby. Um this is >> that's actually a snack bar. >> Yes, this is uh the exterior side of the concession space. Um, permanently the outer shell uh of this jog in the building is going to be constructed with fiber cement panels which is the same material used at the surround of the middle school entrance. This right here is the north side of the gymnasium along the right next to Route 8. Uh the CMU veneer has been completed. It's been washed and as you can see >>
007it's really nice. It's the same as the the side of the auditorium. Yeah, the auditorium constructed out of the same veneer. >> And the the windows, there's only one window missing. It's really nice. >> Um, as you can tell from the picture, we got two workers from Cherry Hill up on that boom lift. They're installing the curtain wall system framing, uh, making up the clear story windows in the high school gymnasium. As of today, all that glass has been installed. Um, staying within the limits of the gymnasium, overhead, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection systems are in progress. Uh the current condition of this space as of today uh is the overhead work required um was completed and then the ceiling has been painted. Uh gymnasium equipment, the divider curtains, basketball hoops, etc. are also nearing
008completion. pictures from Kyle Dix. Um >> in the distance you can see the uh plywood sheathing is in progress on the east wall which eventually gets drywalled fastened over it. Uh making up the furred and shed roof walls uh similar to the existing conditions that we had in the original gymnasium. These walls are actually um almost complete with drywall and uh we're actually on our second coat of taping on both of the walls. So, we're making pretty good progress. Um, moving upstairs to the second floor of the renovation. This was above your existing locker room area or was also a locker room area at the time. Um, this is where we got the two health classrooms. You have a wait room and some storage spaces. The material metal framing is complete and our inwall and
009overhead MEPF activities are ongoing. Uh last week we received building department sign off for the inwall inspections and we're closing walls and we're starting to uh take staying on the second floor of the renovation. Here was some progress that we had taken for some overhead domestic plumbing and hydronic piping systems. Uh you can see some duck work hanging in the air in the background along with some fire protection that was running east to west of the page. So it's very active up there. Jumping back down to the first floor locker room area, we have interior masonry partitions are substantially complete. As you can see, we have hollow metal door frames that have been grouted in place and we are making up the entries of the spaces and the top of wall details are in progress.
010We're starting to get going a little bit quicker with our overhead MEPF. Um, so work is ongoing on the first and second floor down there. uh moving west of area H into area G which would be closer to the occupied school. Um this is where your middle school locker rooms are. Um here's a picture of the wet wall construction between the community restrooms. Um as of in the last couple days, all of our masonry partitions in there are being constructed and are near completion. Again, more mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection in progress overhead. Jumping outside in the middle school parking lot. Uh for perspective, here's a shot of the autoshot building shell. As you can tell, the CMU backup walls have been completed and the openings are created for future curtain wall and window storefront
011systems. CMU veneer ties are in place. The air vapor barrier installations at the time of this picture were ongoing. Fast forward to recent times, the veneer block, just like the north elevation has been completed and the masonry contractor is working on the large east elevation of the building um which actually faces the athletic field. It's the last big elevation that they have working on. It's actually to the right of the page there. Um, back to the middle school parking lot. We got concrete curbing uh making up the perimeter of the bus loop. And then the rain gardens and sidewalks are all in progress ahead of the August 11th paving date that I had mentioned and we're we're tracking well for that. Uh, as I just mentioned before, these are some newly placed concrete sidewalks along
012the east side of the middle school building. Uh, we're making our way up north of the picture and around area H, uh, the existing building and the new renovation area. And moving into the athletic fields, you are looking at the north multi-purpose field. Um, fence post installation progress ahead of the anchor curving. Earlier this week, more form work and concrete placements for the anchor curb have proceeded on this field um on the south side and we're going to move along the west curb line um that is shared against the tennis courts. Um jumping up north to the JV baseball field. Um there was a filler day for the paver who had began some asphalt sidewalks along the perimeter of the field. More recently, we had the fencing contractor, Eagle Fencing Guard Rail, um who's been
013installing all the fencing and safety netting associated with the athletic fields and throughout the uh complex has begun to core holes on top of the anchor curb uh for installation of the 4ft high fence in this field. Fast forward today, we're getting a lot of stone delivered, loads and loads of stone. Um all the filter fabric has been rolled out on the JB baseball field. Um we're getting stone, getting plaque drains ready. Um so things are things are definitely happening. Um, >> is that the varsity or JV? >> Uh, yeah. JB Apartments. Yep. >> JB and most apartments. >> JB baseball. Okay. >> Um, some drone shots on a cloudy day. >> Very nice. Um, just to talk a little bit about cost impacts within the period. Uh we had received a cost proposal from
014the structural steel contractor who most recently completed the middle school science room pipe grid along with the two pipe grid systems that we had mentioned before in the middle school STEM and maker space rooms. In previous cost reports, we've been carrying a $7,000 cost as an estimate only for the engineering. The entire cost now that is being carried assumes the engineering material and installation of the pipe grid systems in the three spaces that I had mentioned before. um just shy of $30,000. Originally, the scope of work was assigned to OWI at the time of bid, which was our general trades contractor. Um however, it was agreed with them during the high school installation um that the system needed to be engineered. Um the delegated design, engineering, and professional liability coverage was not signed at the
015time of bid and we couldn't could not be provided by the general trades contractor OWI. Um they had already provided the material and they installed the structural portion of the high school classroom which has been in use since January. Um and it was agreed that they would upgrade the high school science classroom installation so they could match the design criteria now provided by Berlin Steel. Um and that they would provide the middle school materials at no cost. Um so the middle school installation scope of work was reassigned to Berlin Steel to ensure that the professional liability covers the delegated design um was provided on the design. Um, Berlin steel cost is being negotiated for submission as an owner contingency cost change. Um, terms of schedule uh for the final building phase of the project area
016H or is >> what are you thinking about in terms of what this the scope of what the change might be >> costwise like 30,000 just shy but um still negotiating but little little shy 30,000. Um back to area H. Uh work is proceeding every day and we have a lot of manhour being exhausted during the week and weekends to put in as much work in place as possible. Um earlier this week we engaged the trades in a scheduling poll planning session so we could refine activities and durations and task handoffs for efficiency. Um we're constantly thinking about working on Sundays who you know who could benefit from it. You know we're working Saturday, six days a week, seven in some cases. Um, you know, we're just keeping our foot on the gas. So, that's
017all the good, bad, fun news I can really provide for you today. Um, but happy to answer any questions for you guys if you have it. >> Mikey, um, the elevator and H. >> Yep. >> What's the status there? >> Um, so I am got a list a punch list um, from them a couple weeks ago. Tracking to finishing that punch list by this Saturday. Biggest hurdle of that was the electrical and the requirements that they need in order to for installation. So, they're coming back out on Monday, the elevator installer, to confirm that the punch list has been >> all resolved and then hopefully get them lined up to start uh installing the last elevator of our building. Okay. >> That other elevator stuff that the board of ed was uncomfortable with, is that
018that's all done? >> Yep. So, we met a couple Fridays ago with the slam and um >> Con. >> Yep. Kone the school um just talked about >> what was possible um there was a PR that was issued a couple months ago that now needs to be revised based on our discussion on that Friday and that way we can use that as a scope of work to to give to the other >> done when you're installing the other one or is that a whole different group of guys >> we can time it out pretty perfectly. Yeah, it could definitely a possibility. I just need to I need the design. So that's just something we got to hold. >> We just got to work a slam to to get it out. So when Kemp gets back,
019we got to make sure that he's on. >> Yeah. I don't know if we could wait for Kemp. >> When When are you targeting the elevator install >> for the elevator for in H? >> Yeah. Within the next couple weeks. >> Yeah. It's going to be it's going to be tight, but I mean, it's just a matter of getting >> We just want to make sure it's working because we got things going in there >> right for every age. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm just wondering about the timing of the program change. >> So, I have a question. I don't understand what's going on with that elevator to the >> administration to the board of ed. You correct me if I'm wrong. The board the board of ed was concerned because uh the way the
020elevator was programmed a person could conceivably >> take it up to the board of ed and that wasn't the intent of the design. >> Yeah. >> Right now you have you have two entrances to your elevator. One which is >> one half of the usage was for the board of ed and the other half was for school usage. Um, if you come in from the vestibule side, the idea that they want is to not have to use any card reader to just hit the button and all you're able to do is go up to the fourth floor, which is just the board of bed limits. >> Um, conversely, if you have a card access and the idea was to put a card reader inside the elevator, that way, you know, if you have a card
021access, it means you've been authorized to be in that building. You can go to any floor in the building. Um, so it's just a matter of refining that programming, adding a card reader in the vestibule, and then also the entrances that are surrounding the elevator, making sure that they're a little bit more secure that way people who shouldn't be there don't get in. >> And that was the original >> plan, right? >> Part of it's like like staff behavior too, right? There's things that like they have to do like >> see the person to and from the elevator, >> right? And get up there. There's the human effect of it. That's getting somebody to if you have business that you know, having somebody there to shepherd you along. So that's that's the other half of
022it too. But adding cameras, adding more programming, security, that's all part of the conversation where we met on Friday. So >> are you going to go through the values on the on the PCOS or No. >> Yeah. Once we go through that section, I I'll go through them. Yeah. >> Yeah. Done. >> With the on that last area with the athletic fields, what did it mean that it had to be engineered >> for the athletic fields? >> Yeah. You said it was going to cost in the range of 7,000, but then it had to be engineered. So now it's just >> Yeah. So we car that's for the pipe grid installations for the the middle school and also the high school. Um originally it was assigned to our general trades contractor and not not the
023field. Not not the field. I just didn't know what it meant that it that you discovered it had to be engineered. >> Yeah. It was a requirement that we had reviewed with slam. Um it's all about liability and coverage. So >> So it's just a it's mostly a liability. So yeah what happens in the project is there are the project is mainly designed by the engineer and the architect of record but there are some things in the process that they call delegated designs meaning that they are not doing the work for the design they pass that down on to the the trade the person doing the work so those people have to do the engineering that's the delegated design that's >> what I mean I think it would that's where there was a a lapse
024in knowing yeah >> that that was actually a delegated design requirement to begin with >> okay Okay. Thank you. Thank you. >> So, the punch list items for the high school. >> Yep. >> Are they going to get all completed during the summer? Is there going to be some >> Yeah, we made a big push this summer to to keep reducing these items and same thing with the middle school. Just trying to get as much as we can while while kids are not in session. I could understand the middle school dribbling over, but I'm sure we'd like to have the high school done 100%. >> Yeah, >> I think I have an update in the commentary about the items, but either way, yes, to answer your question. Yes. >> Yeah. And that's not the high
025school, right? These punch list items. >> The one Yeah, I separated them from high school and middle school. >> Oh, that's middle school. Scott. >> So, right now there's 31 open >> in the high school. >> Yeah. >> Yes. Yeah. And it's probably cut in half to be honest as of today. >> Yeah. Less than that. >> Any other questions? Okay. Next is uh BNL. Uh John couldn't be here so he gave me uh his list and I'll just read it for you. BL field reports. Field report 117 tracking 21 items. 11 items are related to the high school and also tracked on the punch list. Five items are related to the sitewide. Three items are related to the middle school and will be tracked on the punch list. Two items are forward looking for
026the work that is in progress. Special inspections, reinforcing inspection at site, sidewalks, and site uh foundations. No deficiencies, noted. Reinforcing inspection at slab on deck in building H. No deficiencies noted. Uh intent paint and cemented fireproofing in building part H. No deficiencies. Tri-State material lab reports. No outstanding material test issues. IEES, that's the third commissioning. No new reports since the last meeting. Startup testing. Water chlorination plumbing middle school. Final readings passed. Water chloration HVAC hydronic middle school final readings passed. NFPA13 fire sprinkler system middle school no issues to report. NFPA72 fire alarm test no school no issues to report. Testing and balancing of HVAC HVAC hydronic system balancing is ongoing at the high school. HVAC air system balancing on the ongoing in the middle school. No balancing reports have been issued since our last meeting.
027Connecticut high performance building report continue to monitor store paint and cleaning supplies. Recycled content of preconsumer building material stands at 17%, minimum is 10%. Regionally manufactured product stands at just 42%, minimum is 10%. Construction waste management 120 cy of waste generated in May with 65% being recycled. Minimum requirement is 50%. That's his report and Donna has a copy of that. >> One thing to touch on for John's report is one of the last pieces of documentation you're looking for for the middle school and and reviewing with the building department and slam was the preliminary air balancing report uh for the middle school which we had received yesterday. So that's one of the last pieces of information we need for uh walk into the building official. So >> yeah, right now the the two secretaries and
028the principal and assistant principal are working in the high school portion that was for the middle school. >> That's it was where the high school was using it. So they can be in there. >> So it's all set up. We brought down file cabinets. and they're uh they have their computers there so they're working there. >> Anything on John's report that might be a big hit later? He said five items on site work and those things. Anything that's going to be significant? >> Good. Not that we're already haven't thought about addressing this summer. >> Good. Next item. Uh, you have the application for payment of 2,981,783.75. Have a motion to approve. >> Sana second. >> Second. Casey. Any discussion? All in favor? >> I opposed. >> Next. John, I think John Mike, sorry. >> Yeah.
029>> Uh, starting off with 591R1. It's a CM contingency cost of 1,600 bucks. Um, we talked about elevator 4, which is the last elevator uh that lives in area H. It was actually assessed with some tariffs while it was reaching the United States port. Uh our current trade contract for this project does not outline procedures um for handling tariffs of these types. Um in the resubmitted version of this PCO um you know it contains specific customs border patrol forms that substantiate these tariffs. Um so between ONG and SLAM you know we have decided to draw this type of cost from our contingency. Um and to be clear this is the only tariff cost that we have been hit with to date and that we've expected. So, um, 592R1 is an owner contingency cost of $16,863.
030Uh, if you recall a few months ago, we had approved a cost in the amount of $46,000 for the electrical and signage costs for three sight signs around the complex. Um, first sign being an aluminum panel that says Torington High School and Middle Schools. Uh, that's actually mounted to the chain link fence at the Daily Drive entrance. Uh the second sign being the refurbishment of the existing electronic display uh where it's at the grass island where the old OMG trailer uh used to be. And then number three is the another aluminum tube tubed frame sign uh that's internally illuminated um lettering at the winter parking lot towards the road. Uh this cost is being resented. cost being represented in this PCO is for the sonnet tube concrete foundation work and then the trenching and back
031filling required to support the electrical requirements for the signs two and three that I had mentioned. Um PCO 593 is an owner cost of $4,66. Uh, it was noticed that an interior pair of double doors entering in from the north elevation entrance of area H was not specified to receive positive latching hardware. Uh, it was only equipped with poles that could open and close the pair of doors. Um, but based on fire codes, the idea of positive latching hardware, uh, it includes a mully and it includes an exit device or vertical surface rods. Um, so the door latch sets into the strike. Uh, so it remains engaged. So it doesn't prevent the door from opening because of a fire or pressure differences. Um, cost here credits back the material and labor for the specified poles,
032but the ad cost to install the mullion and exit devices um to remain within code. Uh, PCO 598R1 is an owner contingency cost of $1,230. It was noted that the was noticed that the two ice makers called to be provided in area H were not actually capable of making ice. Um the model provided in the documents was for a 500 lb storage bin that again wasn't capable of making ice. Um so given the expense of an ice machine, you know, we had worked with SLAM to find one suitable ice machine uh that was closer to a $0 cost, understanding that, you know, credits were coming back for specified ice bins for placements of them. since there wasn't anything to really install. Um, you know, if you recall, we relocated the existing ice machine that they
033were using back in the old school and it's actually currently operating in the E1 custodial closet and we're going to be able to relocate that one um into location number two once the space is ready to receive it in area H. >> Excuse me. >> Yep. >> You forgot PCO. >> Yeah, I had it in different order. >> 597. Okay. >> Okay. I'm on 597 now and then it will be 599. >> Okay. >> Um 597 is an owner cost of $1,583. Uh when Slam's consultant uh came to the project to develop a punch list uh for the theatrical auditorium space, uh they required that we secure the masking curtain track uh with an aircraft cable from downstage to upstage um on the wall to prevent swaying when the curtain uh was in operation. Uh
034we had reviewed this in depth with slam and there was nothing in the documents that required this work to be performed uh in the base contract. So we attract the work on time and material in the amount of 1583 599 is an owner cost of $2577. During the phase 2 A move in, it was noticed that there were no call switches for the resource room in area B2 in high school. And then the greenhouse space on the fourth floor of area B. Uh based on request um we installed the call switches and the work was tracked again on time and material. PCO 602 is an owner cost of $236,50 related to the athletic fields. Uh this cost represents the fence and safety netting and back stop changes uh related to the PR87 athletic field revisions.
035Um, as a brief summary, this cost takes into account some of the RFIs that are being incorporated into the work uh related to the safety netting and then the 4T 4T top rail protection requirements that we had discussed with the owner. Um, 6in sleeve post for the back slops um foot and 1/2 in diameter 6T deep foundations and then 4in sleeve post uh for the safety netting posts. Again, foot and a half in diameter by 4 ft uh deep foundation. This is eagle fencing. So we keep it a separate PO for eagle fencing. >> Is that close to or equal what we originally carried for that? >> Yeah. Yes. Yep. >> Uh moving on to 603. It's an overall cost of $14,855. Uh after the abatement and demolition of the existing building uh that were
036renovating, there were a handful of rough openings in the elevated concrete deck uh from older mechanical and electrical penetrations. Uh there was no detail or reference in the documents that quantified these penetrations or how we were supposed to repair them. Um so we asked the question and slam provided those details and again we had tracked the time uh the work on time and material. Um, and just to put it into perspective, there were a lot of holes that we had to fill and you know, we spent hundreds of hours of carpenters and laborers time to uh to form these up appropriately and uh to address them. So 604 is a back charge between trades. Um, if you recall, we had reassigned some of the scopes of work in area H to the sitework contractor. Uh,
037one of the scopes of work, uh, as noted in the PCO was for trenching excavations for the new underground piping, uh, in the first four lock room of area H. Um, not a cost for the project, just a back charge, uh, between trades for a scope reassignment. PCO 605 is a credit back to the project in the amount of $24,826. Again, if you recall, we had approved a large cost last month uh for replacing the concrete slab that was saw cut and removed to facilitate the installation of the underground plumbing. During that slab removal, there were remaining sections of concrete um that were not acceptable to tie back into structurally. Uh when we replaced it, again, we were dealing with a bunch of unforeseen conditions which expanded the scope of work related to the tunneling
038systems. Um so, it changed it from a trench infill to a slab replacement. Last month I had explained that we were negotiating the trench infill credit uh with general trades contractor and it started out at 15,000 and now we we had taken a credit back at 41 a.5,000. Um so the other half of this cost was the back fill and compaction that was originally again assigned to the general trades contractor but we had reassigned it to the site work contractor due to the increased extent of the work um you know strictly because general trades contractors couldn't couldn't handle how big of a job it became. So this is a net credit of 24,000. >> Yep. Net credit of 24,000. Uh 606 uh CM contingency cost. This is for temporary toilet service um cost uh for
039the June period. You'll see another cost uh for July. It actually increased, but we'll get into that. Um 607 is an owner cost of $2,46. in the high school main office. The project provided loose mail slot organizer compartments that sit on top of millwork that we had provided through our casework contractor. Uh we had a request uh for additional shelving that we stole from the middle school mail slot organizer temporarily. Um so this cost is actually replacing the shelving that we stole for the middle school and then we actually end up providing additional shelving shelving uh based on the the demand that the middle school needs for their upcoming move in. So um PCO 608 is another athletic field cost owner cost of $7,79. Uh one of the first PCOS that we had approved for
040the athletic field revisions um based on PR87 was Liberty Landscaping scope of work. few months after PR87 was issued, then came along 87R1 and then an RFI was submitted questioning the perimeter drainage quantities uh which was clarified by the design team. Ultimately, the drainage quantities were increased between the two proposal requests uh resulting in an added cost of over $7,000. >> How were they increased? Was it a design count? Yeah, I think there was an omission that they had noticed between the change of documents and you know we had reviewed it with them in Poland. >> All of these all of these extras will be reviewed by John and categorized >> like he's he's done already >> like he's done so far right >> every month he gives us a report. Um, PCO 609 is
041an owner cost of $14,414. Uh, based on review with the athletic department, there were requests for some revised gym equipment for the high school gymnasium that is being constructed. Based on the equipment that was used in the gym and the middle school gym, there were a lot of similarities um that the athletic department became familiar with over the last few months and uh decided to make some changes related to the bad mitten and pickle ball and volleyball equipment. Um, so this cost is representing that. Uh PCO610 is an owner cost of $1,954. During the phase 2A occupancy inspections, the deputy fire marshall had requested that the fire alarm pull stations be relocated from inside the vestibules um in the high school and middle schools to the adjacent corridor outside of the vestibule man trap. Um
042it's not a code thing. It was just based on a request from the deputy fire marshall. So it was something that we validated. >> How much was it? uh just shy of 2,000. >> They didn't say why. >> Um I think there were some issues based on others. >> That's basically basically we do what he says, but um you know he had tied it back to some issues based on some like school issues that happened school shootings and stuff and >> that's kind of his process. >> This is probably the only change order we ever got from those guys. >> Yeah, it is. I think it is. Yeah. Since I've been here. Yeah. >> You're not done yet? >> No. >> Yeah. Well, we're just kidding. pretty good. They've been good. Other times, >> they
043they've been very accommodating to us. >> And the guy who comes every day, what's his name? Rob. >> Robert. >> Oh, Rob from the building department. >> Yeah, Rob's a great guy. He comes. >> Um 611 is a CM cost $4,000. This is for temporary toilet cost for the July period. It's actually a few thousand extra than the June one that I had mentioned. Um because with the increased manpower over the summer summer conditions, uh we increased the cleanings uh to twice a week. So we pay a little bit more money. Um PCO 612 owner cost of $4,73. Uh this is for the miscellaneous metals contractor to remove and reinstall the masonry veneer support relieving angle at the old concession bumpout in area H. Um the bottom of elevation for the relieving angle was set
044based on the drawings in the shop drawings that we had submitted. Um you know after it was set we had noticed that the metal roof deck which actually gets concrete it wouldn't adequately bear on the structural steel so it wouldn't allow the concrete to be placed. Um we had reviewed it with slam and we removed the angle and raised it higher to uh clear the conflict >> and that's it.

They got to they got to come back and maintain until everything's approved. And it's a long way from being approved. >> Um cuz the grass growth it just isn't what it should be. But the beds are growing a lot of weeds. Um and you know that place got to be standing tall when it opens. >> Yeah. >> Funny for you to say that. >> See what you did there. >> Oh yes. >> Dean anything. >> I can take it. Um, Mike, how do we make out today with uh um the vented? Oh, >> yes. Yeah, they came
058out um today to investigate. I got a followup uh with an email to them today and uh make sure that they're here next week to start removing the metal panels on that elevation and then uh keeping them open to the point where we can start to do some more investigation with the commissioning agent IEES. Um, and that's the that's the plan for now. >> So, they're going to take those panels down. >> So, so the guy came out today, he assessed it. >> Yep. >> No action was taken today other than usually. So, you're talking about maybe >> Yeah. No, no, he wants he wants it done per the drawing with every >> Yep. All the perforations need to per they can't be made in place. They need to actually be >> That's what he
059wants the first step to be. This is the venting of what area? >> The end of the high school. >> End of the high school. Windows are >> the box that creates the front of the high school. >> Yeah. >> Um so Dino uh >> that he wants that to be the first step. >> We came up what we thought was a pretty good alternative which he agreed >> but he wants this to be the first step. >> And and when I'm saying you might have just when is this first step? I got to reach out to them um after today and uh just follow them and stress the importance of getting them out here as soon as possible to start dismantling that elevation because it's >> and the material is readily available to >>
060Yeah, that's something we got to still find out too. He he didn't have that answer on hand today. Um he's just coming here to assess the situation and I just got to work. >> He's got like almost a whole pallet down there of this of this stuff. >> More of that material for area H. So if we can route from area HL material is perforated for H, you're saying? >> Yes. Some of it is anyway. >> Yeah. Yep. Certain portion of that is supposed to be part. So >> the plan would be to kind of steal it from there. >> Yep. >> Dismantle it and then get to a point where we can start to get SLAM and I start our commissioning agent to >> actually see >> to investigate it, start to do some
061more testing less than 20 pieces >> while it's open, you know, we should investigate it, you know. So >> why is this being done? I was going to say >> having some space condition issues up on the board of ed more specifically Wilson's office >> um condensation >> condensation >> humidity in the space is not reacting the way it should be according to the way the system is designed and we feel that there's some exposure in that backup wall system um you know creating a chimney effect in sucking into the the fourth floor office and kind of air exchanging not in a good way to where you can't meet the humidity that you know we're supposed to be marching towards. We're now in the investigative process of that. So, >> and this is fairly typical
062of a project. >> I mean, this is I would say this is a somewhat unique >> set of details put together. So, it's >> I mean, it's not it's not typical. I mean, the the parts and pieces are simple, but the way they all interface with each other is probably a little complex. So it's not so easy to just find one thing that's not right or not there. >> Dean was explaining it to me a couple days ago. It's complicated. It >> is complicated. >> The systems are >> but we got the right people. I mean commissioning agent another panel people. We just got to get them to diagnose. But >> Ellen, anything? >> No. Thank you everyone and echo Donna for Fiona keeping her >> Robin anything >> um thank you guys and echoing
