Executive director reports no recent incidents at major projects, introduces HUB Nashville intake and safety platform
Loading...
Summary
Executive Director Trey reported no incidents in the last 30 days at major projects (Juneville Justice Center and Global Mall/Hickory Hollow), described onboarding other Metro departments to a new safety-reporting platform, and outlined a public intake route via Hub Nashville (hubccb@nashville.gov).
Trey, the Contract and Compliance Board’s executive director, told members Dec. 18 that several large Metro projects are progressing without recent safety incidents and that staff have completed uploading an internal safety‑reporting platform for facility and project inspections.
He said Bell Construction is running roughly 300 workers on the Juneville Justice Center site, with roof, MEP and interior work underway and no incidents reported in the past 30 days; he also described interior demolition and fit‑out work underway at Global Mall (Hickory Hollow) and said several tenants — including the Nashville Fire Department and KIPP Academy — are occupying anchor spaces as work advances.
On oversight and complaints, Trey said the city has reviewed 77 contracts with 9 flagged for compliance review and is establishing a HUB Nashville intake page and QR code that will route construction‑related complaints to the Contract and Compliance Board. He provided the board’s intake email as hubccb@nashville.gov and said staff will be able to log reports anonymously or with contact information for follow up.
Trey also said staff are scheduling meetings to bring Metro Water, Metro Nashville Public Schools and NDOT into the platform and oversight framework; he described ongoing coordination with legal and procurement as the platform expands to other departments. The board asked for copies of base contract templates and breach/remedy language to understand how the new safety clauses will fit into existing contracts.
The board scheduled follow up redlines and asked staff to return revised contract language before filing recommendations with Metro Legal for Council review in January.
