Owner's representative reports progress and weather-related delays on multiple county projects

William (Bill) White, the owner's representative, briefed the Infrastructure and Public Building Authority Subcommittee on multiple ongoing county construction projects, reporting both progress and schedule risks.

On elevators, White said Metro 1 and 2 and the ICB elevator are progressing. He reported the ICB elevator is about 95% complete and may remain staged until the broader ICB building work is further advanced. "Metro 1 and 2 will be operational prior to receiving the new cab material," White said, and KONE is working to advance elevator work even if the interior cab conversions occur later.

White said the annex elevator asbestos issue produced three quotes that are under review and that staff hoped to have a recommendation later in the week. On courthouse and annex work, he said punch-list items such as millwork and countertops are being completed, and abatement on the north wall of the annex front entry security area should finish this week.

Regarding the behavioral health services facility, White reported steel erection, masonry, slabs and foundations are complete and that crews are trying to recover lost time after weather-related delays.

The committee moved, seconded and approved receiving White's report by voice vote. The transcript records updates on final change orders, column repairs in the ICB remodel and a separate sewer-line project; staff said they would provide final numbers soon.
