001I mean, I'm sorry, Pat. Pat, one Irishman to the other. Yeah, sorry. You look alike. What did I do? 12 years old or 15 years old. Yeah. Don't read anything. Nothing that got one. Okay. Uh, all in favor of change the agenda. I Who's going to mark Sue? Who seconded that motion? Sorry. [Applause] Donna, I missed you. I did the minutes. I missed you so much. Great job. I bet nobody's going to need to correct that at all. Okay. I miss you for more than that reason. Okay. Next, uh approval of the minutes. April 17th. Salute John have a second second that discussion all in favor I public participation for I'm sorry okay no public okay uh is Mike Z doing it or are you doing Mike Z is up See, he did such a
002great job on court performance audition myself last time. Uh, great to be back. Uh, this time Dan's back, but I'll go through the commentary and happy to answer questions after I finish up. Uh, slideshow is not going to correlate immediately, but we'll pick up into a little. Um so with respect to the occupied portion in the construction tech lab, the dust collectors are waiting a controller that was purchased via change order for the system to function as intended. Um once the controller arrives, it will be installed. Um the dust collectors can be started up and then the system can be balanced. Um punchless items remain in progress. Work continues to occur after hours to not disrupt the student population. Uh during April break, we were able to take advantage of the occupied space and complete
003the lingering items that weren't able to be completed prior. Um the middle school is trending for completion ahead of furniture. The first delivery occurs June 17th in the media center. Uh the delivery for the rest of the middle school happens shortly after that and through July. Um the one exception in the middle school, as a reminder, is on the first floor of area E for the STEM and maker space rooms that are currently occupied. one's being utilized as a temporary changing room. Um, in the summer, the ceilings in these rooms get removed temporarily um to facilitate the installation of the pipe grid system and then the ceilings will get reinstalled before repainted. Um, we are final cleaned on the second and third floors in the middle school. What you're looking at here is the carpet
004installation in the presentation class zone area in the media center on the third floor. Uh, it's actually the same carpet that was installed in the high school media center. Uh but the carpeting is complete and the final base work remains in progress. Next slide is showing a typical custodial closet with the mop sink in the eyewash station. The work that remains here is the insulation jacking um on the exposed copper piping, the vinyl base and the mop holder accessory. Um as I had mentioned before, final cleaning is complete on the second and third floors. Here's a picture of just the recently cleaned art studio classroom uh on the second floor, area F. Um and the next slide showing the community restroom on the same floor in the same area. Uh just for a real-time update,
005the window contractor Cherry Hill has also begun cleaning windows on the inside of the building as well. Flooring installations have progressed significantly in the middle school. The picture here is showing completion of the corridor flooring on the second floor and it's the same condition. the floor above uh minus the vinyl base installation. Um as of today, the corridor flooring on the first floor has approached the vestibule area and is nearing completion. Um also shown in the picture here is the completion of the acoustical ceiling pads on the second and third floors. Uh yesterday we received approval from the local building officials to pat out the ceilings on the first floor of area F. That's the last area that we're seeing out the rest of the middle school. Um so those ceilings will begin to close
006and final cleaning will follow along with development of punch list and completion of punch list. Next slide here is just showing some floor preparation on the first floor area F classroom. This room's actually complete as of today's date now that the picture was taken at an earlier date. Just showing some more progress there. Moving on to our area H renovation. This picture is in the future first floor locker room area. Uh the existing concrete slab has been removed. baiting, uh, installation of new underground plumbing systems, um, back filling, um, all that's complete. So, floor drains, cleanouts, sanitary risers, um, are all above or at finished floor elevation to receive the new concrete slabs. Um, concrete slab pour is actually scheduled for tomorrow. Um, so it's a big milestone for the area. Um, next slide, same
007area here, just a little farther back towards your future middle school parking lot area. Um this is actually showing progress of the final elevator shaft, the pit foundation in area H. Um if you kind of look above the shaft, there's an existing beam overhead that eventually gets cut out and shored permanently with masonry walls. Um that operation of course is pending the slab replacement happening tomorrow as I had mentioned. Uh and the masonry wall will be built shortly thereafter. Um on the left side of the elevator shaft there, those are 4-in plumbing piping that is extending or entering underneath the existing footing as shown. Those are for your storm and your waist piping. It captures all the waste from the gym lobby and the runoff from the auto shop. Um you see a big hole
008there. That hole is actually underneath the existing footing and it eventually gets underpinned so the foundation remains stable. Um so we pour new concrete there. Um, staying in area H, here's a picture of the metal decking and the supplemental steel off to the left side. If you can see, it's a little dark in the picture, but that's actually for a roof drain. Um, the metal decking has been inspected and it's been approved by the special inspector. Um, subsequent activities like parapit framing um are ongoing as of today. It's actually above the metal decking. You can't see it, but um that allowed that activity to start. Um, moving on to the new concrete foundations for the project. um the final new concrete foundations for the project. Uh here's a picture taken looking down the gym lobby
009corridor and uh the basketball space is located uh on the left side of the page. You can see it kind of jogs out. Um as of today, the slab for the gym lobby continuation and the autoshock is scheduled to be placed next week by the pending. Uh and the final new structural steel um will start next Thursday, the 22nd. Again, just more major major milestones happening in real time as the project progresses forward. Um, same thought process here on the next slide, except this is for the new auto shop footprint. Uh, at the time this picture was taken, the underground plumbing was substantially complete and the underground electrical beneath the subgrade had not happened yet. Uh, however, all underground MEPs are complete in this area and again, slab placement is scheduled for next week where
010they're pending. Moving on to the site, here is a picture taken in the occupied courtyard for the seat wall granite cap that has finally been installed. Took a little bit to get the right product in the right radius around the um the seat wall, but end result. It looks great and just in time for some outdoor learning. Uh here's some progress showing um athletic field top soil stripping looking north. Um lots of top slope piles scattered around this area. Um, but the city is actively loading and hauling out the excess on the they're going to take it off to this point. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. Until they cry uncle. Yeah. Cry uncle. All right. I I didn't know if there was we're going to take it all and then and or up until a certain
011point. I just didn't know if that's a lot of time. Yeah. To clarify your point though, not all of it goes off site. what we need to keep on site for the future work stays on site. I'm talking about the excess. Yeah, that's all. Okay, to report on the demolition side of things, uh here's a picture taken of the existing building F or B, whichever you want to call it. Um about a week or so ago, as of today, the building is no longer standing and they're processing the debris piles, unhauling the waste accordingly. Um, all that remains for the existing building that is standing is a partial of the industrial arts wing and mechanical spaces. Um, and then lastly here we have a aerial drone shop taken in in April. Um, just to report
012on some cost impacts within the period. Um, at time of bid, the general trades contractor was assigned with replacing the existing concrete slabs that were required to be removed in sections to facilitate the new underground plumbing piping in the existing locker room area. Um during removal of the concrete slabs, we encountered some unforeseen conditions related to the existing tunnel system um that were not identified on the structural drawings along with being left with slivers of existing slabs that cannot be you know dowled into and uh you know without busting it apart um you know to tie in the existing slab into the new replacement slab. Ultimately the scope board went from a trench replacement to a slab replacement. So, changing the responsibility from the general trades contractor to the concrete contractor um order of magnitude
013for the scope reassignments around $30,000 being applied to the CM contingency fund. Um I briefly touched upon it there, but we're continuing to battle with time and recovery related to the turnover of area. As I had mentioned during last month's committee meeting, we got off pace with the demolition handoff to successor trades that are following those activities. Um concrete and steel subcontractors have been working premium hours over the last month to gain as much time as possible. Um unforeseen conditions related to the tunnel closure walls like I had mentioned um you know have consumed a lot of time delaying slab placement until tomorrow um you know which was a few weeks over what we had originally anticipated. Um you know more unforeseen existing conditions are being resolved um in communication with SLAM's structural team. Um,
014a few others to mention were the discovery of, you know, the undersized steel beams in the old concession bumpout area. The drawing noted the existing beams were larger than what was discovered in the field. Um, to resolve that issue, you'll notice on the cost report, uh, that item is around $20,000. Um, and that's to add reinforcing WTshaped beam. So, it's basically an I-beam, but it's the top flange is basically cut off and then it's welded to the underside of the existing beam to provide that span support um to support the future mechanical air unit that lives above that roof. And then actually, we pour a concrete metal slab on deck there, our slab on metal deck there. Um so, those were just a few items to mention, but before I yield the floor to Dan
015here to talk a little bit about Fields, um you're all familiar with our summary data sheet. Now it compares our original turnover date um schedule for the areas to you know the current completion date. We just added in some completion milestones to check the area each lobby, the gymnasium, first floor locker rooms, second floor rooms, and then the auto shop. No, I think um I know why he does uh now he's taking my place here as far as providing you had that commentary. That's pretty it touched on a couple things that I did want to mention myself and that's you know with regard to the project schedule last month we identified the impacts of of abatement and select demolition running longer discovering a few more things pushing the pushing the start of the work uh
016for going forward again structurally um we moved from a from a five day a week schedule to a six day a week schedule last month I think we reported about a two week shift you know, once we it was probably three into four weeks and then with a six day work week, we're down to two weeks. As Mike mentioned, the the the successor trades have been working six days a week um as well as premium hours during the day in order to continue to recoup time where we hope to capture more time. The additional scope of work that was that's under the slab, the tunnel restoration, um you ate up some of that time that we had hoped to save. So currently we're still about two weeks from the anticipated delivery for first day of
017school. Um in the summary data that Mike mentioned, it provides u it provides a an October finish, but I wanted to clarify what Mike just said. In the past three weeks, we've gone into the schedule and we've made some what we call mini milestones or milestones to reflect the different areas of our remaining work. And if you look at the remaining work the way we see it, we see it as a gymnasium. We see it as a locker room because it's got a whole type of finishes in there, resonous floors and that type of um different finishes as opposed to the second floor which is our fitness area, a couple of classrooms up there. And then lastly, the lobby and auto shop. So by breaking down those areas into many milestones um we have more
018information and we can track better the progress in each of those areas. The good news is in Mike in Mike's report he indicates that you know we're into the end of September or late September but I wanted to clarify that just to to take the edge off there. Right now the the gymnasium and the second floor classrooms um are reflecting a 99 finish. The locker room area is as late as 9:26 according to the current schedule. the opportunities in the auto shop. We would fit out similar to what we did in the construction tech where the space is finished, but all the equipment's not fired up and not, you know, you're not working immediately as an auto shop. You're you're in there for class and then we're we're connecting up the equipment in the evenings.
019Um we're continuing to try to drive the project back. You know what? We've had an initial meeting with Michael McKenna uh and the members of our core group here on what the impact is is if these locker rooms are not readily available. And we wanted to do that because it's prudent at this earliest stage of the game to make you guys aware there's the potential, you know, there's the potential of an area that won't be available for students to use every day. Uh, you know, Mike would have loved to seen those in the, you know, in the middle of August when the football program comes back to school. Um, and that's not going to happen. You know, that was really never going to happen. But now we're pushing them out even into a situation where
020you have a middle school population and a high school population and only one set of locker rooms. That's the reality of what may come down the path here. Um, I can say from my experience in building projects like this, we seem to have a way to get things done. Um, right now we're looking at, you know, how do we install the MEPs to try to pick up time? Is there a way to sequence that work a little bit better? And we're looking at two shifts. So again, we're finding ways to solve the problem because we want to capture as much as we can. We just wanted to make this group aware of the potential. And then my my efforts been in in athletic fields. Um, you know, I wanted to give the team here an
021update on where we're at. The the approvals that we got last month are engaged, but the the two primary trades that are involved are subcontractors to CJ Fuji are actively procuring product and uh and that hurdle is behind us and now the work in the field is ongoing. We are tracking to the original schedule or that we had thought we'd finish around the second week of September. Um, we're currently my I have a schedule update that I that I produced. I think it says 1010 is actually what it shows today. I think I mentioned last time we spoke the u you know the the dates in here are a little bit conservative but they are for a reason and that's because weather slows us down. Last week we got hurt pretty bad. We were at
022a point where we wanted to get a subgrade inspection. You know proof roll the earth out there after we stripped the earth off but with the wet weather you know that couldn't happen. Um the other activity that's happening is the top soil export. Um, we're taking advantage of the city offering to haul that material at no cost. I'm sorry, load it at no cost in addition to hauling it. Um, and that's great, but again, last week was non-productive. Uh, we've only had two days of hauling to date. And so there's, you know, there's just more time getting the site ready uh for the next activities or the start of what would be Liberty Landscaping or a subcontractor CJ Fuji who is really our primary synthetic sub. Um you know, their first activity after the grading
023and earthwork and storm systems are all in place. They come in and they cut a trench to build the perimeter curb system that anchors that synthetic carpet down. And so we had a meeting with Liberty Landscaping as well as Eagle Fence and CJ Fucci and we worked out some of the detail of how they could work together and uh and establish the start date for that curb installation as being June 12th, I believe is the date, June 10th or June 12th. So it's moving. You know, the project is moving. The earth work is happening. Uh we can hope for better weather. We have some good weather up through Wednesday of next week. now. Um, so moving forward on a pricing perspective or where I am with with cost, uh, Eagle Fence provided their cost. I
024went back, we did some, um, some additional clarification, I guess I'll call it, as to what we're trying to convey until we got the finalized VE drawings through Kemp's group. Um, they did their takeoff again. We had another meeting. Um, they're now I'm days away from finalizing their pricing. Their pricing is coming in at or near expected. Um I'm of my other trade base. I'm looking at the TC landscaping cost. That's our retaining wall credit. The trade is not in agreement with my analysis of exactly how much block is being taken out of the project and has now wants to go back to their uh so they have a The supplier has a engineer that actually draws the shop drawings based on what is the current drawings and they do sometimes have to go deeper
025into the earth to bear and so legitimately I'm waiting for his engineers to come up with the exact square foot face of block. Um so no new information on that. That one's going to be just a little bit of a tug to get over the finish line. Um, again, I mentioned that the PR87R1 drawings came out. They came out on 422. Um, those incorporated the VE items to the great extent and those went back to the trade. So, now they're pricing again. Next guy in line is hardscape, sidewalks, and asphalt. Um, on a positive note, my takeoff represents uh the VE drawings matching our expectations and there being pretty close to a a zero cost change, which from last month, my estimate for concrete or sidewalks, remembering not well of a $60,000 cost. So, you
026know, we're picking up money on that particular line item. Uh, Dinto Electric hasn't given me pricing yet, but that's understandable because their set of VE drawings didn't come out until last week. So, they're in the pricing exercise mode. And again, the final drawings for earthwork and storm systems came out in that PR87R1. Um, and that's going to be our earthwork and drainage number that CJ Fuji is working on, but I haven't seen yet. So, I don't have a lot of new information, just that it is tracking well to what I presented to you um in April, if not a little better. The the two things that are doing better, concrete, um potentially the sidewalk number, um and then there's the top soil export. we had carried $40,000 to load that material and if it all
027goes away because the city has their own excavator out there now and they load it all then you're you're seeing the savings in that lab. So lastly is the reminder that we have 150k in our estimate for earth that needs to be removed and replaced and depending on what the geotechnical engineer comes out and actually says everything we see in the field in the area of major concern which was the junior varsity baseball infield um that earth is doing great. That's actually where the trucks are rolling out of in and out of the site hauling material. And we're not seeing any any subgrade issues there. We haven't lost the truck, right? We did not bury even an we know about it. Yeah. Um so I don't have any numbers to report for you tonight except
028that we're in this phase again. You know, I'm I'm back to getting the drawings on 422, getting the electrical drawings last week, and now, you know, crunching through the takeoffs. So that's why he speaks because he's quicker. Uh Dean just raised a question. Uh yeah. Um as far as the tunnels underneath, can you explain to me what happened there with the tunnels? Were they on the drawings? We didn't know about them. The closures were not there. I can let Mike do you want to elaborate? Yeah. What Dan's saying is, yeah, it wasn't identified on the structural drawings. So, in the areas where the old tunnel connected from old, I think it was building G to building A, um, we have to somehow close that off, close off the end walls in order to facilitate our
029new plumbing waste piping that's going underneath the trenches because we got to end up back filling it. Um, but probably back fill it if there's nothing, I guess, adjoining it on the side. No, no foundation. Um, so none of that was shown on the on the structural drawing. So, we had to um, you know, form and form the board. So to help maybe draw a mental picture for this, if I'm going to run pipe and it's going to run through an old tunnel in order for me to backfill that, I've got to put temporary ends on the side of the tunnel that was passing through. So you anticipated you anticipated sides of the tunnel. I didn't anticipate sides of the tunnel. And we had to form and pour the sides of the tunnel in order
030to back fill create a path for the for the plumbing work and to support the the replacement slab. So where structural had picked up, you know, where the known trenches were going to be needed to close, they always were planned to stay in exist. But when I had to punch through the sides of them, I had to support the slab on both sides. Okay. Um, so in addition to that, there was um there was a couple of spots where the foundations were deeper than we thought. There was more holes in the elevated slab than anybody anticipated. They were concealed behind walls. So that they weren't discovered during um, you know, slams and initial survey of the space. And so that work requires structural support from below and pouring an infill slab on top. Um, What
031we're very excited about, frankly, is that we'll see a slap. You know, we've opened up that building. It's been open in those trenches that that you saw in the pictures. You know, that's the multi-layered storm and sanitary piping that's literally taken, you know, almost a month to get in the ground and back filled up. And now it's, you know, vapor barriers in place, dowels are in place, and we're ready to pour tomorrow morning at 7:30. Any other questions? Yeah. Uh Dan, what do you anticipate the these premium hours, six day shifts, what costs are you anticipating taking to the project for? Well, the initial effort by the structural steel contractor and some of the work by the excavation contractor we attributed to the delay by this select demolition. So, we had a we had our
032low bid American Environmental as our abatement demolition contractor. They didn't hit their dates. They were put on notice. Um, and they are now incurring the premium labor cost for the first three weeks or so of that work. I don't know if you've thrown a number together for painting the concrete or No, just going forward. The part that you know will hit as part of the contingency of the job. I had And yeah, I mean a lot a lot digits. No, it's not. No, I mean you think of it like a ballpark is going to look like$25 to $30 an hour worst case scenario for the the premium portion. You get a long and you get you run up a lot of hours for not a big not a big bill. And that's the benefit here
033is that when you're running premium and the crew sizes are smaller, like if I have a structural steel crew out there, they're just not 20 guys. Um, they're only six. You're not incurring a lot of cost. It's when we get to premium when I have right now we're back up to about 55 people every day. But you're as we move forward into July and August, we're going to be up to 70 people. You know, it's when you're paying all those guys premium. So that's where we would try to pick up uh an opportunity to capture it as early in the in the process as possible as well as using a second shift instead of premium hours. So I can get the thought process here is that if if we take the trade that is a
034mechanical hydronic piping contractor and we run him during the day but then we start an electrical contractor in the same space in the afternoon all I'm paying for is the delta between working normal hours working second shift it's less than premium okay it's also has the benefit of putting mechanical contractor that I have during the day starts again fresh the next morning you know and he's just picking up where he up. I have to have some trades that support each other. You know, it's I can't have no electricians there if I need to have an electrician there because I'm doing something that requires, you know, raceway in the wall. But it's that analysis that we're going through to try to pick up the time as early in the game as we can. I mean, recognizing
035now we we're still in miday and we got three months to to pull this off. Thank you. Any other questions, John? Good evening. Um, as you can tell, as construction kind of kicks up and demolition starts to slow down, there's more testing and inspection going on. Um, right now we're up to field report 108. Um, we're tracking 23 items and met with OMG the other day to go over a strategy to get them done. The majority of those are going to be taken care of over the summertime when classes are classes are up. There hasn't been a CES report. Um the Nest did come out and issue a field report and they didn't they do the civil side of things and they didn't cite anything um unusual in their in their report. Uh special inspections
036which are looking at uh foundations, concrete, reinforcing and steel. They had several reports. Uh they reviewed the and inspected the reinforcing and building part H which uh you saw the foundations for there and there were no issues. Uh the steel roof deck that Dan mentioned uh was inspected and there were no non-conforming issues. They done some concrete tests and they're all coming up to at least 25% above their design capacity. So we're using we're using what's called high early strength. We don't have time for 28 days. It's not part of the project. The fact that we're pouring concrete foundations a week ago and standing steel on them um you know middle of next week. We have to use high early strength. So, you have to have early strength concrete. Right out of the gate, they
037all came up to strength. Seven day breaks were all at 100%. They're looking good. Normally, you for 4,000, you're waiting your 28 days before you put steel on it, but in this case, they're able to get on it within 7 days. Um, so Tri-State's been doing those tests and inspections. There haven't hasn't been an IIEES um commissioning. There's nothing to commission just yet, but there has been some startup testing. Uh your 681 new data drops that are in the middle school were tested and they all passed. Um testing and balancing is ongoing not only in the middle school. Uh it's also continuing in the high school. That should be wrapping up middle school. They're starting on Monday. I'm sorry for what? Middle school testing and balancing. Uh yes, on Monday and construction waste, which does
038not include the building demolition. It was only 150 cubic yards of waste. So, that's starting to taper down as the area of new construction starts to get smaller. That's that's getting smaller as well. And that is it. Thanks, John, Johnny. When's the last time we got a report from CES or you guys? We actually Yeah, we actually did get one done just um they were on site in the middle of last week. Okay. didn't have much to say because they were walking through the middle school and the middle school is pads are pads are dropping. So, their report basically had nothing to say about the middle school. Uh they took a quick look around the renovation, but you can see where that's at. So, there's not there's nothing for them to see there either. Okay.
039So, although they were on site last week, their report is only a page and a half. Okay. Next item is the application. You have the application plus each uh subcontractor to OMG. Uh it's 2,60,643.15. Got a motion to approve Doug Casey. Thanks. Uh any discussion? Remember you you always get the the list and then each front page. All in favor? I opposed. Dan, you are PCOS's. Um Oh, okay. Mike. Yep. Um PCO 404 R1. What What time do you want to get out? He causes couple tunnel after only. That's it. Only 20. Yeah. um PCO 404R1. Uh it's a smaller owner cost of $2,433. Uh in the area of the existing transformer next to the football field, we installed the large block retaining wall. Uh the transformer pad was actually sitting 2 ft lower than
040the top of the retaining wall. So it created an issue with pooling water. Um the initial RFI response suggested to step down the retaining wall, which would have lowered and stepped down the fence as well. And then we would have also had to reset the top of the retaining wall cap. Uh the initial cost was submitted at over $125,000. So we went back to the drawing board and we ended up regrading the area uh creating a drainage swale to de divert um the cooling water away from the transformer towards a pooling area connected to the wall under drains. Um PCO469R1 is an owner cost of $18,000 and some change. Uh there is an outdoor equipment storage room that was intended to be used by facilities uh and the potential to store gas powered equipment. Um
041in review of the drawings, the engineer decided to add an exhaust fan and associated duct work, insulation controls, air balancing to the space. Uh there was a small cost included by the mason for a loose lentil to support the main um above the louver. Um the electrical power is being hooked up to the motor at no additional cost to the owner. uh PCO 542R1 smaller owner cost of $1,387. Uh during the MEP coordination process, we discovered that due to the location of the masonry wall on the first floor, um mechanical and plumbing piping rise up through the elevated slab uh and ended up being exposed in your future uh fitness weight room. Uh so the submitted cost is to fur out uh that specified wall type up in that fitness room uh so you can
042conceal the exposed piping. Uh PCO547 it's a larger owner cost of $10,645. This is actually for a dishwasher that is specified at the science lab prep rooms. Uh unfortunately a quantity of one was not indicated on the equipment schedule. Uh therefore an additional model similar to all other science um lab prep rooms um located in the high school and middle school uh was required based on the response to the R5. Uh PCO 548 is a CM contingency cost of $9,721. It's for premium labor extended or expended during the occupied phase 2A turnover. Uh if you recall, we spent a lot of time cleaning the building prior to the turnover and some of that was on premium hours that are reflected in this PCO. Uh during buyout, we actually carry a certain amount of premium time
043as well for a certain amount of Saturdays and certain crew size. Um so the general trades cost at over $3,000 actually represents the overs from what was carried at the time of bid. Um, PCO549 is an over cost of $11,657 for ledge removal on the eastern portion of the site coming in from Daily Drive right near where the orange trailers are currently um set up. So during excavation uh for the storm storm system in that area um we encountered ledge um so we had to remove it and the work was performed uh on a time and material basis and verified by the OMG superintendent. PCO550 is an owner cost of $5,088. Uh there was an unknown water line lateral that entered into the existing high school. Um and there was no shut off valve locally
044near that line. Uh the only way to remove uh the lateral was to shut down service to the entire site. Shutdown included uh Aquarian's assistance um on President's Day Break. Uh so you can kill the service, cut out the water line, cap it, and then back fill it. uh line was not indicated on the utility demolition plans. Therefore, it's an owner cost. Uh PCO 551 is a owner cost of $11,487 uh in an effort to provide additional safety measures for the late arrival student population coming in from the daily drive entrance. Uh it was discussed that creating a temporary walk path out of an inch and a quarter process uh from where the old baseball field is to the existing sidewalk that surrounds the um athletic field track. It would help prevent any u safety
045conflicts with students um and with demolition site work operations and heavy equipment. Uh PCO 552 is a back charge between trades. There was a hydronic piping leak at the area B lower level that required some extensive cleanup and replacement of flooring tile. Again, it's a backyard fish between trades. Uh PCO 553 is an owner cost of $2,321. Uh per owner request, it was discovered that there were no provisions for a working ice machine in the occupied building from the January to June semester. Uh we relocated the existing ice machine from the existing school uh into the custodial closet in the E1 area. Uh and the plumber made connections so the ice maker could be used for the rest of the semester. PCO 554 is another owner cost of $1,428. Uh in the lower level PR4R5
046change uh receptacle was added on the green screen green screen wall of the video production room uh along with acoustical wall panels. Uh the submitted cost represents reversing the outlet to the other side of the wall in the other space. Uh removing the acoustical panels and patching the drywall hole from moving the receptive. PCO555 is a CN contingency cost of $2,255. There were three locations where the steel column grounds uh in in the area A and B curved corridor uh weren't able to be concealed beneath the finished floor. So, they were left exposed um due to constraints with the welding machine. Um in review with SLAM, we provided steel enclosures that were painted um to cover the exposed grounds. uh PCO 556. This is a $0 cost. Um it was noticed that the drawings did
047not identify a the secondary curtain and rod at the shower locations in both the locker room areas in area G and H. Uh thankfully the general triage contractor looked ahead and already carried two curtains and rods uh for all the locations that were in question with the PRO 557 is a CM contingency cost of $1,295. Uh when the electrical contractor went to shut down the existing school main breaker, uh it would not close. So they reached out to the Southern New England Electrical Testing, also known as SNET, um so they could emergency call to lube and reset the main breaker. PCO 558 again is back charged between Daily and OMG for supervision required to oversee the HVAC air and water balancing activities that continue to occur on second shift. PCO559 is an owner cost of
048$9,850. After occupancy, the school had a need for an added copier and microwave in the B1 faculty workroom. Uh there were no provisions for a dedicated circuits for an added copier or microwave, nor provisions for a communication cable uh for the copier. Uh there was a small cost included to shift the whiteboard over to accommodate the new layout uh introducing the new copier uh and some ceiling pad replacements were required resulting from the work that occurred. PCO 560 is a credit return to the project in the amount of $4,049. The future weight room fitness space on the second floor of area H had two columns that were scheduled to receive the spray applied fireproofing and aluminum column covers. Um I think everyone here agrees that weights in aluminum column covers don't mix. So um we
049took a credit on the column covers and then we chased um and then we changed to an intimin fireproof columns in le of spray applied. Now, there was a little small material delta uh to increase to intumes, but overall savings to the project. Uh PCO 561 is an owner cost of $1,862. We realized there was no cane rail shown at the bottom of stair 4 uh in the middle school. That's an area E. Um, so we asked the question to the design team and noted that it is required and it's represented and could cost about PCO 565 is an owner cost of $45,989. So if you recall, SLAM had issued a proposal request for three site signs, one mounted to the gate entering in Daily Drive, one with concrete foundations that is internally illuminated coming
050in from Winthrop. Uh, and the last one being the refurbished existing electronic display board. Um, a little further up the road. Um, as you come in from Winthor, that's actually right where the old OMG trailers were located um, before we moved up top. Uh, so this cost is only for the signs itself, the installation of the signs and the electrical uh, work associated. Still working on getting the foundation cost uh, from the site contractor, but I anticipate it any day now. And that cost is expected to come around $40,000. Um PCO 566 is another charge between trades. Nothing lower there. Uh PCO 567 is a CM contingency cost of $2,424. Uh a reoccurring one here at these meetings for the April period of temporary toilets. Uh PCO 568 is an owner cost of $3,437. This
051is part of the grant money for the athletic fields. Um, in order for SLAM to develop a scope of work for rellying the existing sewer and storm piping beneath the fields, we had to hire a pipe scoping company under CJ Poocci to provide video recording of the existing conditions and sent to slam DC 569. An order cost of $5,998. The stage left ramp two was specified with pendant light fixtures that ended up raising a code conflict with the adjacent fire protection head in the ramp uh during occupancy review um with the local AHJs. So in order to rectify the code conflict um you know while weighing the most cost effective option and architectural appeal uh the group elected to replace the pendant fixtures with the recess cans that are actually in the the other side
052of the ramp on stage right ramp number three. Um so it required for protection, drywall remediation and painting costs. PCO 570 is a small order cost of $911. There was a hallway in the area F first floor in the middle school where there were no lighting controls shown on the contract documents. So the cost is represented. Thanks Mike. Any questions? I always have questions. I have a couple. Um the ice what do we use the ice machine for? training ice does they get injured ice. Okay. After practice copier in the dining room and if it's a faculty faculty work. Oh, it's a faculty dining but it's it's the dining room. It's it's a dining room and a faculty room. Got it. Okay. Um and are the toilets now reaching our our top change our top
053uh over budget item on the on the project? Is have the toilets reached the point where they're the most overbudget item on the project? Dan laughs about it. No, there's there's another item that Oh, you know what? We're not gonna talk about those. Yeah, I know. And my my last one is the lights on that the walkway into the auditorium. Is that was it designed that way or did we change something that caused us to have pendant lights that didn't meet coding? That's just an oddball one for it is the uh the fixtures that were on the ramp were the same. They were specified to be the same type that you see in the body of the auditorium. So, if you're sitting in the in the seating in the auditorium and you look at all
054those light fixtures, that's a particular type of fixture. Um, I think there was an error in the uh designation of that light fixture because the other ramp had recessed cans and they were just off by one digit, but the ones on stage left tenants like the ones we had in the other space. So, we actually because we had the fixtures at the time and we were finishing up the auditorium in order to turn it over, we installed them, but we all kind of said, you know, what's going on here? I have to actually take these nice large pendant fixtures and cut the stems down to 2 in and stick them up right to the ceiling. Otherwise, you know, people are going to pump their head. Um, and then they do create a conflict with the
055adjacent fire protection. You know, they just created a dead zone in the distribution of water. So once we discovered it, then we asked the question, you know, do you want to go back to recessed cans here like you have on the other side? And the answer was yes. It solved both problems. It would have been more costly to move the fire protection around for about the same cost. We wouldn't have got the architectural benefit. We actually did that work over the April break and wrapped it up before the play, which didn't get mentioned, but there was a play last week. Yes, that was cool. I hung around, watched people come in and then I left. I just wanted to make sure that it went, you know, it went off properly. I got a couple questions.
056Um, in addition to some, you know, this was missed in the design and that was missed in the design. For instance, this um very small amount that breaker that had to be reset in the existing not a design thing. So, no, no, no. I know that. But I mean is if if why did that breaker fail so early and why isn't it covered under so it's the old building name. Gotcha. It's all right. And then this uh this one jumped out at me just because it's them. This 11 grand for MJ Daily. Yep. Had they been more cognizant of the schedule, would this second shift work be necessary? Uh no. Uh so what they've been doing is balancing the water side of your system on second shift since about uh third week of January, right?
057And so as a rule, the OMG puts a superintendent on the project people working inside, right? No, I get it. But they put themselves in this position. Oh, yeah. So why they're paying for our superintendent and they're they're paying for the super We're bringing someone in to watch them because we need to have someone there. No, they are chaining for our oversight. That's the backyard, right? It's zero cost. That's a backyard. Okay. Yeah. And today happens to be actually the last day. He's finishing the water balance on the second floor. Okay. Uh as we speak and start first floor, first shift again next week. Those pendants that were you put in, took out, can they be used somewhere else? We hope so. you know, they're they're if you have something they're substantial, you know, they're
05816 to 18 inches tall, 6 in, 8 inch cones. Yeah. They're not exactly like the ones like in the field of the auditorium, you have two types. Um the ones that are in the back over the mezzanine is the type that was in the ramp. And so if any one of those fails in, you know, in five years, seven years or 10 years, you'll have five extra. Or if you find some other use some other area, but they're all of a, you know, of a voltage type that can be reutilized. The water the extra water line that we ran into. Yeah. I'm no val that that had it must have come into the building though. It came into the building. So, where does that where did where does that come in the in the process?
059somebody walk the building and not realize it's there or how how does that So yeah, there was just nothing on Nobody realized that the pipe that was in the mechanical room over by the auto shop that there's no way to shut off that water. You know, nine times out of 10, you're looking at a pipe coming out of the floor, there's always a a curb cop in another for a common residential term, there's always way to shut off the water. But in this circumstance, there was no way to shut it off except by turning it off the main. So at some point in the construction of that wing of the building, somebody decided to put a T and bring water into a second spot back in 1962. Um, and was able to do it without
060putting a valve in, without putting a shut off. And yeah, I have to tell you the the I'll just say the asbuilt information on the existing water line is not quite accurate from 60 years ago. You got it. Uh we are in the throws now and now Aquarian now we're in Aquarian's vision. Aquarian now is is highly engaged in the project. They're collecting our asbuilts to put the permanent you know asbuilts for the longevity of the utility now being aquarium as well as you guys will always have our asbuilt information but aquarium comes with a with a cost soon as they get involved they charge you. Thanks D. I got a question on the um the heat/AC system the AC system when when will that be 100% like set so the in the so in
061the the various elements or various areas of the building right so in the high school portion all your systems are operating comfort levels are good there's just this verification process of checking the balance of the water and that would almost get them to a point where we could finalize or accept the system. But because they're not finished with it as of today, they've elected to not continue to go second shift and balance the last remaining first floor areas, but instead to go back to first shift and then go back to that space once student population leaves again. Okay. So, they'll be doing the water balancing in the existing occupied high school. uh for until about middle to third week of July and that's when the high school portion will be finished. The middle school portion
062again balancing all the equipment's been started but now we're actually going to turn it on and leave it on and make the air balance and space condition work. Um that process starts tomorrow and finishes or starts Monday and finishes around the 1st of July when we go back into the other school. So that portion with the exception of the piece we haven't built yet. Right. Right. Then we have the piece that we still have to build and uh that'll be the last piece of the puzzle before you know the whole system gets commissioned. The benefit or the positive side here is that the middle school is balancing as expected. It's on schedule. The balance the space will be under control before you get to the dog days of July. Right? Your furniture will arrive and
063the air conditioning will be on. Um, so that's the benefit. The the hard part, but we've always known it was going to be the hard part, is that the last piece of the puzzle, the air handler that sits over what used to be the concession stand, there's a new rooftop unit that sits up there that services all of the locker rooms, classroom spaces above it, the lobby, and the locker rooms between the middle school and high school gyms. All of that commissioning and final verifications won't happen until that areas are complete and will be pushed into a second shift commissioning process for the area. The reason why I asked is because there's still uh some inconsistencies in the rooms. So like a room one room might be cold and then a room down the hall
064is warm. So yeah, we've been honestly on this project I've taken the personal interest. I capture everything I get from Brian Scott and I keep it in a log as far as getting that information out. What we do discover on occasion is that a valve will be closed when it should be opened, just that the wiring is is 180 degrees. Um, so we discover those and we wrap those up and we only find those as they're going through these areas over the last three weeks or so. So if there's any more that we run into, those isolated, you know, situations occur. But overall on a on a comfort level when they moved in I had you know probably in the order of 15 to 20 space condition uh concerns or issues that were raised and
065then since that time only an additional 20 or so. So you know for the magnitude of the school the uh the number of space condition complaints has been less than. So, will we expect when the middle school opens to also have the same trend? No. No. Because we're starting that process earlier, we should be through the uh the balancing of verifications through the middle school by the time you get to August. And this balancing wasn't complete in January for the high school when we moved in. You're saying it was not. It was not didn't didn't finish. Today, it's not finished. Today they're finished. So air is complete with the with the exception of uh a couple of what's known as cabinet unit heaters, the little units that sit in the ceiling and the stairwells and
066van fill units. Um air is complete in the high school with the exception of those. Water is complete in the high school with the exception of the first floor. Have we looked how the building is functional? We had a whole bunch of energy efficiency stuff. you know, hey, this building's going to be world class energy efficient. Do we start to look now that the systems are being validated and turned up and balanced? Are we hitting those milestones? Back to the board of ed. Yeah, we haven't I haven't done any trending or or you know, power demand. I don't know. I haven't really spent uh I haven't gotten any feedback. Dean, you could probably see if you're how your energy consumption, you know, what the energy consumption is of the high school. I don't know if
067there's information from SLAM who did the initial energy studies on the building um of a partially occupied building. Um but it' be interesting to know we hitting those milestones or close to them. Obviously, the building has undergone some changes along the way, but yeah, I think you'll be at a point when the middle school, you know, now you've got almost you probably got 285,000 square feet of your building under control. And it's that point that you'd be able to compare where the energy consumption levels are compared to way to a model that was created pre-construction. And if we there are submetering on the various components of the building, but I have not commissioned those yet. It's kind of one of the last things we do, but it does get looked at. Thanks. Yeah, there's a
068there's a whole submeter bank in the in the electrical room of the main high school um that isolates your primary power demands and can give you real time information reported on the BMS. Were there any performance guarantees in the contracts or um not off the top of my head? No. Okay. We have to get access to the BMS data. Get access can get access. You asking if CES can get access to the BMS data. They u I don't have access. It's it's not a uh it's a proprietary software that's not something that you anybody can go to the to the internet and get to. Um, currently the only workstation, there's two workstations in the high school, but you have to physically go to the workstation. When uh, you know, when we turn over, Dean will
069get it, look at the software so that he can have information on his phones. Yeah. Another way utility bills you have. Yeah, we have we have our past bills that we paid. It's it's it's Yeah, we can look at that and give you and give you what to call up that we used. Yep. That information is is going to not arrive until July. Okay. Can I have a motion uh to approve the all PCOS? Pat second. Any discussion? All in favor? I opposed. Next one. Analysis of payment. I give you that every month where you up to 146 million that we expended. Uh payment of invoices. First one is for B&L companies $8,85. Have a motion to approve. Any discussion? All in favor? Okay. Next one is the first bill uh for slam $30,918.75. This
070is on the major project, not the uh turf project. I have a motion to approve that. Uh I'm on Casey. Any discussion? All in favor? I opposed. Next one is slam 77,27555. This is uh uh designated for the uh turf project. Have a motion. Pat second. Robin. Any discussion? All in favor? I oppos. Next one is the one I just gave you tonight. Innovative engineering for 1,94.50. Have a motion for approval. So John Doug. Thanks, Doug. Thanks, Doug. Discussion. All in favor? Opposed? Okay. The next one is uh I do it every month but so I I haven't given it to you but here it is. This is the project budget summary. What it shows you the categories. It shows you the budget. It shows you the paid to date. You look at the 146
071million930 is the same as the one I gave you. And then it says the balance. A couple of items that you see the uh update on the incumbrance items on the back sheet. you'll have all the incumbrances that are that means they haven't been PCOed yet to me. So that's why they're incumbrance and uh Mike is still working on the pricing for those. Uh these may not be the final pricing because Mike is goes back to the contractor. So he just gives me an estimate when I put it in. So you see that incumbrances are 433,941. Owner contingency at the time is 132,000. We have credits of 1,ion3 1,330,528 and we have balance and contingency of 1,ion28,000. The next breakdown is uh construction cost. Construction is 152 million. Contingency is 818. It's different from OMG's
072because I do not have any incumbrances in that. He he has a list of incumbrance. He hasn't given us given me the PCOS, so I can't put them on my list, but he had but uh you have his list and the uh CME up to date. So that brings it to 162790. Then the turf uh project incumbrances, we encumbered this synthetic turf. We encumbrance the installation that's Liberty the lining of the pipe 93,000 slam balance of 97,000 OMG's fee of 158 and the geo testing uh just received his contract of $4,000 we had budgeted 15,000 so that's the breakdown of 5 million124 against uh balance of 5 million9 again we don't have Fuji Fuji I'm not hungry yet thing. We also have in that uh difference is 154,000 for unsuitables which hopefully we'll may not
073be using. We also in that balance is 110,000 for contingency and the rest is the fence the concrete and items and and this fence. So just want to give you an update. We get that every month. Uh, comments for the good of order. John, thank you very much. Doug, I'm good. Thank you. Case also good. Thank you, Donna. Great. Thank you. Mike, good. Thank you. Good report. Appreciate it. All set. Thank you. I was going to speak on the peraf here. Um, he's gotten some complaints about the grass already. Yes. around the entrance. Um, so he's in a position I don't need Steve, but I will if you want. He's in a position that he has to uh he has to get it done one way or another through the project or through our regular
074sources and obviously they're going to be reimbursed. We haven't received a well we received a response today. We put the contractor CJ Fucci's landscaper TC Landscaping um we reached out to them and asked you know when are you going to mow the first time? When you going to mow the first time u they own maintenance of the field of the grass areas and plantings until acceptance. Um they responded thus far only by you we'll get back to you. I don't have an answer. Um consistent with the conversation we had with Dean yesterday. um if you want to pull the trigger on doing it yourself and then we take the funds away from the trade. Um it's a little premature, but all I all we need officially is to give them 48 hour notice to get
075it done. So if you're going to pull the trigger and we want to pull the trigger before Wednesday of next week, let us know and we'll put the notice out. Okay. Yeah. Um so we'll give them till to to to do it. Okay. So we'll we saying by by Wednesday. Well, if you get them to notice, it's the front area when you first drive in. It's probably about 2 ft tall right now. It's over the fire. Yeah. You can't even see the fire hydrant. So, I'm surprised we haven't heard from that entity. So, um Okay. So, we'll we'll notice them tomorrow. Okay. And then um and that makes you free to go. Yeah. It's not a ton. I mean, somebody go to the weed whacker and knock it out in 20 minutes or half hour,
076especially in that area. The rest of the building like in the courtyard and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah, this has to be done, but it doesn't, you know, it's it's not as critical and as an eyesore as that there. I'll make the call tomorrow and and see which way, you know, if the trade is going to respond or be nonresponsive in which we can notice something. Yeah, it's tough. My guys have a tough time keeping up with the grass with the rain. I I get it, but like I say, it's one main area. Dan, another thing you did came in was not there and now it's there. Um you I see you sent out something as far as summer work. Um yeah, Brian, did you put anything together for um the admin uh location for
077for board of ed as far as what work and what what time that's going to happen or a schedule when that's going to happen? So we want to make sure we we're anticipating not impacting your ability to move into that space. Um there is a change forthcoming in relation or where how the public accesses the board of ed suites um came under additional scrutiny. He went through it a year and a half ago. We came up with a plan when uh when Superintendent Wilson got involved. He saw some loopholes in that process. And so we have a set of proposal request documents that we we got that talk about adding card readers and things. And what Dean's referring to is they're establishing a move in schedule for the board event to move from engine into
078this into the building. And when we're doing that work, we're going to be encumbering both ways in. So we'll absolutely assist in and it's not a ton of work for us. Uh it's it's two weeks worth of work, but we don't want to do it at the wrong time. There will be an elevator in operation during that time though, right? It's not like we won't be the elevator won't be affected as far as its operation. when they come out to do the reprogramming, then it'll be offline for a day. It's one day. No, thanks. Great meeting. Just going to throw it to you. Mike, you're fast. Yeah, thanks. Damn, you did. You do a great job. Damn it. He is like here. Okay. Uh, do I have a motion to adjurnn at 608? Oh, yeah.
079Next meeting is June 19th. I'm sorry. stuff. Uh Pat and Casey
