"It's not great news."

Here are the highlights from last night's construction update.

1. Q: Will the project be completed on time?
    A: Yes, but it will probably require "premium" hours to do it.

2. Q: Premium time will be additional change orders?
    A: Yes.

3. Q: Have you evaluated the dirt that you are going to find underneath the pool?
    A: We have, and it's not great news. There is unanticipated rock....

4: Q: Does it look like there are any winterization issues coming up?
    A: Yes.

5: Q: That'll be change orders?
    A: We're talking to Nello about that, but there's a good possibility.

Construction Update Tonight

There WILL be a construction update tonight at Jefferson Middle School. The meeting starts at 7 PM. It was never publicized.

Prison hallway or New High School hallway?

The School District has a monthly Construction Update.  The next Construction Update is June 10, 2013. I decided that I know as much about construction as our super Super, so I decided to have my own Construction Update. Will it be a monthly feature? I dunno.

This month, it is all about hallways.  Below are two photos. One is the new high school hallway and the other one is a prison. Can you guess which is which?



Why do I bring this up? On July 28, 2009, Dirk A. Taylor, P.E., reviewed the MT. LEBANON HIGH SCHOOL ADDITIONS AND RENOVATIONS Schematic Plans Dated June 1, 2009. Read his comments on the inefficiencies of one-sided corridors. 

Maybe I will call this series of posts, "We told you so!" or "Dirk knows his stuff!"
