Evergreen Elementary construction is "on track," board told; GMP 3 coming next meeting

Enumclaw School Board · August 17, 2026

Summary

District staff reported sidewalks and utilities are in place, footings have been poured in most areas and that GMP 3 (the full project budget) will be presented at the next board meeting; occupancy and commissioning plans were discussed with schedule risk noted.

A district project presenter told the board that Evergreen Elementary construction is progressing ahead of expectations and that the project team will present GMP 3, the guaranteed maximum price encompassing the full project budget, at the next meeting.

"The project is moving along extraordinarily well," the presenter said, adding that footings have been poured in most areas, formwork is in place and some prefabrication of walls has begun. The presenter confirmed three contract amendments are executed (validation phase and two GMPs) and said the 100% design-development set has been received.

Board members raised questions about design details and schedule. Staff described a tight schedule with occupancy and commissioning steps planned before and during student arrival; they noted the district is buying long-lead items early and monitoring risk closely.
