Pelham board hears construction updates; Pelham High roof project returns $52,500 credit
Summary
The board received updates on multiple school construction projects: Pelham High School roofing project completed with a $52,500 credit; band room renovation work (furniture delivery July 29) and schedule risks tied to weather; playground surface work at Pelham Ridge is ahead of schedule.
Board member Floyd Collins provided the construction update, reporting that the roofing project at Pelham High School is complete and the district received a $52,500 credit.
Collins said renovations to the high school band room are underway, with furniture scheduled for delivery July 29 and a goal to complete access-road work by July 8 so the band can return then, weather permitting. He warned that a recent equipment failure and continuing wet conditions have delayed the road work and that the schedule depends on a few dry days.
At Pelham Ridge Elementary, Collins said contractors began work on a poured-in-place surface and that the project is ahead of schedule; he expected completion within about two weeks. He also reported that assistant principals met for training and that district staff planned a July 8 meeting about the new high school site with the design team; Collins said he would provide an update at the July board meeting.
Board members asked whether any projects would interfere with the start of school; Collins said no major interferences were anticipated but that the Pelham High band-room renovations were the single project the board was watching most closely.
No formal actions were taken; the presentation was informational.
