Selectboard reviews contractor questions on Town Clerk’s Office addition; no final decisions made
Summary
At a Nov. 1 special meeting, the Town of Eden Selectboard met with contractors and the project architect to resolve construction questions for the Town Clerk’s Office addition, covering mechanical relocations, foundation heights, roofing specs, moisture mitigation, and bid alternates; the meeting ended with items moved into add alternates for the bid.
The Town of Eden Selectboard met with contractors and the project architect on Nov. 1 to review outstanding technical questions for the Town Clerk’s Office addition. Selectboard member Tim Bullard opened the meeting at 6:07 p.m.; attendees included contractors Dustin Miller (Miller Construction), Bryan Baker (Baker Builders), Josh Whittemore (Bearded Plumber), and architect Joe Greene (Joseph Architects, by phone).
Contractors raised multiple coordination items the project team agreed should be handled through the bid documents and add alternates rather than changes to the base scope. Key specifics discussed included moving the Town Clerk temporarily to the lister’s office while a party wall is removed, relocating the boiler pressure tank filter to accommodate a realigned basement stairway, confirming roof sheathing as 5/8" tongue-and-groove with Advantec, clarifying steel roofing color and gauge, and adjusting the foundation wall height so floor and ceiling heights match between the existing building and the addition. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn at 7:07 p.m.; no formal vote on construction items was taken.
