Building & Grounds reports on courthouse moves, parking repairs and Government Center construction issues
Summary
County staff updated commissioners on moving estimates for courthouse tenants, temporary parking-lot repairs, storage requests, Veterans Garage readiness, Child Support Enforcement Agency renovation bid schedule and construction coordination for the Government Center project.
During an update from Building & Grounds, Jason Patchet told commissioners he will meet with a local moving company to obtain estimates for relocating courthouse tenants; the procurement method for movers depends on that estimate. County Engineer crews are completing temporary repairs to a parking lot pending demolition of the Vandermark building.
Craig Kupferburg of the Educational Service Center requested replacing a rental MAX box with a permanent conex storage trailer; commissioners said they would approve placement provided the Educational Service Center pays for a concrete pad and obtains Bath Township zoning approval. Patchet said the Veterans Garage building should be ready for move-in at the end of the month and discussed signage; Clerk Brittany Woods will communicate with a billboard company to remove an existing billboard from county property.
WDC Group is finalizing engineering for the Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) renovation and extended the bid opening to March 19 at 11:00 a.m.; environmental abatement will be included as an allowance. Commissioners also discussed retainage terms for contractors and asked that a resolution be prepared to continue holding retainage throughout the project. In separate Government Center discussions contractors reported sprinkler installation issues related to deck/HVAC elevations; commissioners asked legal counsel (Bricker & Graydon) and WDC Group to review a contractor request to extend the substantial completion date and WDC's recommended change order.
