Board sets facilities committee walkthrough and timeline to close out Phase 1 construction
Summary
The board asked its facilities subcommittee to meet and prepare recommendations on Phase 1 construction punch-list items, with a target for a board walk-through in mid-May and paperwork completion by June 30 to finalize state-aid filings.
Board members discussed remaining items from the district's Phase 1 construction closeout and asked the Facilities Committee to meet with administration and relevant consultants to review a punch list and develop recommendations.
Administrators said Park East (contractor) and H2M (engineer) have responded to the punch list and that the Facilities Committee (two board members) should convene in two to three weeks to review outstanding items and recommend action to the full board. "At some point they're going to invite us to come as a board on our request to do a final inspection," a board member said; administration proposed a board walk-through in the third week of May, with an objective of closing out Phase 1 by June 30 so state aid paperwork can be filed.
Why it matters: Closing out construction affects final payments, the release of retainage and the district's ability to file for state-aid reimbursement tied to the project completion.
Next steps: The Facilities Committee will pick dates and meet with administration and consultants in the next two to three weeks; the committee will present recommended action items to the board at the next meeting so the district can schedule a board-level walkthrough in May and pursue formal closeout by June 30.
