SBC approves grout infill, exterior signage and granite curbing change orders
Summary
The School Building Committee approved three ATP change orders: a $59,008.25 grout infill to level walk-in slabs (to preserve epoxy warranties), exterior building signage from the alternate list, and granite curbing for roadways and the west parking lot; all motions passed by voice vote with no recorded opposition.
The School Building Committee voted to approve three construction change orders during the meeting.
The first approved motion, ATP 112, authorizes a contingency grout infill to raise walk-in cooler and freezer slabs by two inches at a cost stated in the motion as $59,008.25. Staff explained the recommended option uses the grout from Stoneheart, the epoxy-flooring manufacturer, so the supplier will warranty the entire flooring system. The project staff member said using a different grout could create a warranty problem later: "If we use a different grout and there's a problem with that grout that then affects the epoxy finish, then it becomes very dicey, and it becomes a nightmare later on trying to figure out what caused what." The motion passed unanimously on a voice vote.
The committee also approved ATP 119 for exterior signage (three mounted signs: the school name plus culinary and construction tech identifiers) drawn from previously funded alternates; the amount indicated in the motion transcript is $71,005.81 (alternate-list amount). Members had no substantive objections and approved the item by voice.
Finally, members approved two granite-curbing alternates: ATP 120 to provide granite curbing at all roadways (amount in the transcript appears as $156,004.37) and ATP 121 to provide granite curbing on the west parking lot (amount appears as $61,008.27). Committee members asked which lots remained to be priced; staff said Old Fort remains to be priced and that the approved items reflect alternates reviewed in previous meetings. Both granite-curbing motions passed by voice vote.
The chair closed the business portion of the meeting and staff confirmed follow-up on outstanding pricing and the NACTEC-related materials to be sent to the city council.
Notes on amounts and tallies: amounts are reported as stated in the meeting transcript; the meeting recorded unanimous voice approval for the listed ATPs but did not provide a roll-call numerical tally in the transcript.
