Murray bond projects move to masonry and tilt‑up work; crane expected in late September

District Director Taggart told the board that construction on bond-funded additions at Murray High School and the junior high is progressing on schedule, with footings and foundations in place at the high school and early masonry and steel-column work starting. At the junior high, Taggart said some slab-on-grade work is complete while other areas remain under foundation work; crews are casting tilt‑up panels for the auditorium and the gymnasium and expected to set panels when a crane arrives. He said casting beds for gym panels were poured the morning of the meeting and that the crane delivery — described as multiple semis to assemble the crane — is tentatively scheduled for the week of the 22nd (week number provided by contractor but not a specific calendar date). Taggart said the projects are tracking on schedule and added that masonry crews were making visible progress; staff said the district would notify the board when an exact crane date was available.
