Building committee approves Farmington High School and central office invoices, several change orders
Summary
At a virtual meeting, the Town of Farmington Building Committee approved invoice packages for Farmington High School and the central office and ratified several project change orders, including a $114,267 add for three accessible parking spaces; all motions passed by recorded ayes.
Chair (Speaker 1) opened the virtual meeting and asked for a motion to approve an invoice package for Farmington High School; the motion passed after discussion and recorded ayes. Speaker 5 outlined the Farmington High School invoice package, identifying a project manager invoice for Russ in the amount of $5,608.96, an Arcadis invoice for $360, and a United Ag & Turf invoice for $2,534.54, all presented as part of the packaged approval.
Speaker 3 walked the committee through seven project change orders included on the agenda. He described PCO266R1 as a net credit of $44,150 for deleting a wood path to the grandstands in favor of a retaining wall; PCO280 for $11,709 to revise the woodshop dust collection duct drops; PCO283 for $439 to revise breaker and wire sizing for a woodshop air compressor; PCO284 as a credit of $1,217 for not replacing two discolored gym‑floor planks; PCO285 as an add of $6,671 to cover two additional requested track extensions; and PCO286, an addition of $114,267 to install three new accessible parking spaces at the west (after‑hours) entrance, including new granite curb, lighting and sidewalks. Speaker 1 called for the vote; ayes were recorded and the motion passed.
The committee then considered a separate invoice package for the central office. Speaker 5 presented a payment application for O and G Industries for $415,002.07 and an Arcadis invoice for $1,307.50. Speaker 3 described PCO275R1, a fire‑stopping scope in Area F; $5,000 of that cost will be funded through the GMP fire‑stopping allowance, with the remaining $228.69 charged to the contingency labeled in the transcript as the “Centimeters contingency.” The committee voted in favor and the motion passed.
All votes on the motions recorded in the transcript were in the affirmative as announced by the chair; no recorded no‑votes or abstentions are in the transcript. The meeting record also notes that the committee is continuing an internal analysis of change orders at the financial subcommittee level, and that additional detailed conversations will be held there before further committee action.
The committee adjourned after a motion to adjourn carried by recorded ayes; the chair recorded the adjournment at 05:22.
