Summary

District staff said insulation work on the corridor between the high school and STEM building was completed after enclosure and that because leaks did not occur in the first winter, coverage by the project architect or construction manager is unlikely. The committee discussed implications but took no formal action.

The committee heard that insulation work on the corridor connecting the high school to the STEM building had been completed only after the corridor was enclosed and that subsequent leaks are unlikely to be covered by the project architect or construction manager.

Executive Director Miguel Gautier Jr. explained the district had not completed the insulation when the corridor was enclosed and that because leaks did not occur during the first winter after enclosure, it is unlikely either the architect or the construction manager would cover repairs for later leaks. The committee did not record a vote or direction to pursue cost recovery during the meeting.

The minutes do not provide a cost estimate for any repairs or identify contractors for remediation. The committee’s discussion centered on the factual history of the enclosure and the district’s next administrative steps rather than on a formal remedy to seek from the design or construction firms.
