Ben told the committee that auditorium abatement work was completed on July 16 and that saved ceiling framing means the district will likely receive a credit for avoided framing work. He said the old auditorium air handlers have been demolished and the new auditorium unit will sit outside and be ducted in, and that "the auditorium is offline till the end of the year."

Ben also reported that the gym was taken offline to prioritize penthouse work and "the gym is offline until Thanksgiving," with bleacher delivery and ductwork timing extending some elements into October and later. Committee members acknowledged the disruption and the trade-offs required to meet HVAC and penthouse schedules.
