Board approves change order to convert middle school basement storage into flexible classroom-ready space
Summary
The Bath County Board of Education approved PR02, a roughly $9,000 owner-requested change order to remove dividing walls in the Bath County Middle School basement and create one flexible storage/possible classroom space; construction staff reported abatement is complete and air tests are clear.
The Bath County Board of Education voted to approve PR02, a change order to reconfigure three basement storage rooms at Bath County Middle School into one large, flexible space that could be outfitted as a classroom in the future. The staff member presenting the item said the proposal would involve demolition, new flooring and added power provisions and described the estimated cost as "about $9,000 and some change." The motion passed by voice vote.
Jordan, who delivered the construction progress report, said, "The abatement in the basement is 100% complete. All the air test has come back good and clear," and described work now under way on conduit, the transformer pad and exterior storm-line tasks. Jordan said initial bathroom build-out, insulation and drywall are in progress and that crews will shift to night work for the first two weeks of school to reduce disruption.
The board made the approval as part of the middle school renovation (BG 25084) and recorded the owner-request change as PR02. The item was introduced by staff and approved on a motion that was seconded and carried by voice vote. The board did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; minutes should be checked for the formal vote record and the finalized change-order amount.
