On the recovery court, he said sheathing, truss and decking are complete, mechanical and electrical rough-in is awaiting inspection, exterior brickwork is finished, and roof replacement work is ongoing. Dodd listed near-term priorities as completing the roof to get the building dried in, installing fascia, soffits, gutters and downspouts, and finishing exterior doors and windows so interior work can proceed.

“We want to get the roof replacement complete and get everything dried in,” Dodd said. He reported there were no open change orders for the recovery court at the time of the meeting.

On the Plainview Public Health and Safety Building, Dodd said site work is approximately 70% complete, in-wall plumbing and electrical rough-ins are about 90% complete, and truss work should finish by the end of the week. He said metal decking installation is ongoing and that roof-deck completion, shingle installation, fascia/trim and window/door flash work are next. Dodd said there are no open submittals or change orders for Plainview and that the project completion date “remains for the October 2025.”

When asked about the project contingency, a commissioner cited a figure in the meeting and asked whether anything would reduce the contingency balance; Dodd said he did not anticipate reductions and that contingency could increase as the project progresses. The transcript records the contingency figure in unclear terms; the county did not provide a clear numeric contingency balance during the meeting.

On the Hailey Road site, Dodd reported he met with a design engineer and that the engineer has proposed a redesign intended to avoid conflicts with TVA transfer lines above the site. Dodd said staff will perform a site survey and prepare as-built documentation before sharing proposals with municipal partners and the commission.

Why it matters: These projects represent continuing county investments in public health and safety infrastructure. The committee received technical progress updates and asked for continued reporting on inspections, contingencies and schedule.

Ending: Dodd closed by thanking committee members for visiting sites and participating in project oversight; no formal actions were taken on the construction items at the meeting.","Facilities reported construction progress on the recovery court and the Plainview Public Health and Safety Building, and staff said an engineering redesign for the Hailey Road site is underway to avoid TVA transfer-line conflicts.

“The concrete has been completed. The grade and landscaping are in their final stages. The water and sewer connections are nearing completion,” Wagner said, adding that the county planned to set the water meter and begin testing on April 7 and to conduct final punch-list walkthroughs the week of April 14. He said the office building already has flooring in place and the scale house interior painting and trim work are complete.

Wagner described site work on the Jefferson Pike tie-in, noting Hawkins and Price and TDOT coordination for the state highway connection and a planned removal of a small island at the entry to create a full intersection. He said stormwater structures have been installed to control drainage to adjacent properties.

On oversight and inspections, Wagner said the county already has an active permit and expects an inspection schedule that will likely begin quarterly and then move to semiannual inspections, similar to landfill oversight. “I think initially, we probably will be seen quarterly, and then it’ll go to probably every half a year, pending any complaints,” he said.

Commissioners asked about budget and operations. Wagner said the project is “significantly under budget” and that staff is working with the mayor’s office and department finance staff to draft operating budgets and rate structures. He said he will provide a multi-year operating estimate when sufficient data is available; the commission asked specifically for an early five-year operating projection.

Wagner also highlighted a county cost-saving: staff are repurposing metal awnings from the site for use at a truck-washing station at the Landfill Road shop, which he estimated will save about $22,000 in taxpayer dollars.

Why it matters: The transfer station will change how solid-waste customers are served and create a new county-operated facility that requires staff, rates and an operating budget. Commissioners signaled interest in early operating-cost projections so the facility can be budgeted appropriately.

Ending: Wagner said the county expects to complete final testing and punch-list items in April and will proceed with operational planning ahead of the contract’s July 1 target date.","County officials said construction of the new transfer station is nearly finished, with water and sewer connections, final inspections and a final walkthrough scheduled in April.

“These letter was issued to us from TK Elevator, in February,” Director Dodd said, adding that TK informed the county it would no longer be able to work on the existing elevator equipment. “We’ve been given an estimate of $114,000 to replace the controls and electrical components of the elevator here in this building.” Dodd said the retrofit would leave the car and shaft in place; all control, electrical and mechanical components would be replaced.

On the 319 North Maple building he said the structure’s original equipment is nearly 30 years old and parts are becoming obsolete. “The estimate I have here, from the controls company, CS3 in partnership with Schneider Electric, is $93,000,” Dodd said. He described the combined budget impact as “approximately $200,000 next year,” and said the increase would be nonrecurring.

Commissioners asked whether other elevator firms had been bid. Dodd said the county has used both Otis and TK but that TK has repeatedly won account bids and has been awarded service and part-replacement contracts in the past. He said there is a letter of recommendation from TK for the elevator replacement; there is no separate vendor letter in the file for the HVAC/control upgrade.

Dodd emphasized neither project is an emergency. “We’re building this into next year’s fiscal budget,” he said. The committee did not take formal action on either item during the meeting.

Separately, commissioners were told the meeting room audio-system upgrade, previously expected sooner, will not be completed until June; the committee’s June meeting will be moved to Room 205 while IT has two weeks of access to the main chamber.

Why it matters: Those two one-time capital items will increase next year’s facilities capital line by roughly $200,000 and will be visible in the county’s budget review and capital projects list. The committee was briefed for planning purposes only; no purchases or contracts were approved at the meeting.

Ending: Staff said they will include both projects in the capital-projects budget and return with routine budget materials during the county’s budget process.","Facilities director briefed commissioners on planned one-time capital replacements: a $114,000 retrofit of the historic courthouse elevator and a $93,000 upgrade to building controls at 319 North Maple. Both items will be included in next fiscal year’s capital budget and are not emergency actions.","actionData","errors"]
