Secretary Hargett's slate of designer and consultant appointments approved
Summary
The subcommittee approved a large slate of professional consultant appointments and designer selections for multiple University of Tennessee projects, community college renovations, state facilities, park projects and mental health institute repairs, following the secretary's presentation of recommended firms and geographic balancing considerations.
Secretary Hargett presented an extensive list of recommended professional consultants and designers for a range of projects across the state, from University of Tennessee campuses to community college renovations, state park shoreline stabilization, mental health institute repairs and multiple roof and HVAC projects.
The secretary said recommendations balanced procurement agency suggestions with current work capacity and geographic preference. The motion listed dozens of firms across architectural, civil, mechanical, structural, environmental, geotechnical, landscape and surveying specialties for appointment or selection. The committee voted to approve the slate by voice vote.
Committee members asked one clarifying question about one of the selections (a professional consultant for building envelope services) and the secretary repeated the selection. No objections were raised and the slate passed.
