Back
to Budget (O&G)
Mac
Bramley states that the final budget does not show anything allocated to

Back
to Schedule Update (O&G)
Gary
Waugh has a concern about the two bridges that have been done and that the linoleum
adhesion has not been done properly and needs to be repaired immediately. George Graikoski states that he has already
spoken to the contractor about this.
Gary
Waugh states that at the BOE meeting last night the Chairman was concerned
about the action on the cable trays in the
Jeff
Zullo discusses the vestibules and discusses the fact that it still has not been
completed. George Graikoski states that it is being worked on now. Jeff Zullo discusses the penalty clauses in
the contracts and is concerned that the contractors are causing delays and that
the penalty clauses should be enforced. George Graikoski states that letters to
Lockheed and Connecticut Carpentry and their bond companies are going out
tomorrow.
Gary
Waugh wants to know if the painting of the ceiling in the mockup classroom that

yet. George Graikoski states that he is
waiting for the price to do that and will follow-up on it tomorrow. Jeff Zullo states that he is still waiting
for the estimate for the stairwells.
William
J. Buckley, Jr. wants to know what is owed on Connecticut Carpentry and
Lockheed. George Graikoski states that
Lockheed is about one hundred thousand owed and that Connecticut Carpentry is
about eighty-five thousand. William J.
Buckley, Jr., asks George Graikoski to be sure to copy the Attorney Anthony DiPentima
and Jack Healy, Chair.
Lynn
Chapman wants to know when the punch-lists are due. George Graikoski states that if the Committee
members or the teachers have a list he would like to see it now so he can go
over these items. Jack Healy, Chair does
not want lists to be going around.
Wayne
Shuhi wants to know if the issue of the windows has been resolved. Jack Healy,
Chair states that it has been resolved and that the State Fire Marshall came
out and accepted the modifications and that this issue is done.
Jack
Healy, Chair asks George Graikoski about the schedule of the High School. George Graikoski states that all the areas
are done with the exception of the band room, the teacher’s work room and the
kitchen. He states that the band room
and is now being worked on and will be done in about two weeks. The teacher’s lounge should be done in three
weeks and then the classrooms will be finished.
Mac
Bramley wants to know what is going on with the drinking fountain situation and
if it will be resolved before basketball season. Richard Munday states that to be in
compliance the total number of water fountains need to be installed in the
school. George Graikoski states that
the water fountain in the gym will be removed and it will be placed somewhere
else in the building.
Gary
Waugh asks Richard Munday if the Choral Room space ventilation is still a
problem. He states that it can be over 80 degrees in the room with as many as
80 to 90 students in the space. He would
like to see if the architects can take a look at this issue for increased
ventilation in that area. Tony Crowe
reiterates that these rooms get hot and that the choral room does not have
windows that open and when it’s hot the teachers ask to move to another room
for that class. Jack Healy, Chair again
states that he does not want to spend any additional funds until the finances
are under control. Richard Munday and
George Graikoski will look at this issue to be sure that everything that is installed
is working properly and that all the vents are open and functioning. Jack Healy, Chair states that if there is
money he is sure that this issue will end up in the priority category.
Jack
Healy, Chair wants to know where they stand on the reinforcement of the
entrance way. George Graikoski states
that he is working on that now and that all the monies for this have been
allocated already.
Jack
Healy, Chair inquires about the windows in the one hundred wing and wants to
know if they were scheduled to be replaced. Richard Munday states that they are
replacing the glass. Jack Healy, Chair
states that the windows don’t close and they are missing half of the
handles. George Graikoski will look into
this item. He states that he believes
all the glass has been replaced. Peg
Perusse states that there are also sharp edges on those windows. George Graikoski will take a look at the
windows.
Jack
Healy, Chair wants to know why there are drop ceiling in the shower room. Richard Munday will look into this. Tony Crowe states that it is in the locker
rooms and not in the stalls. Jack Healy,
Chair states that he thought that they were in the showers.
Wayne
Shuhi wants to know if the ventilation in the high school cafeteria has been
addressed. Richard Munday states that
the ventilation is working.
Jeff
Zullo wants to know about the gym beam.
George Graikoski states that it is being completed now.
Jeff
Zullo inquires about the siding in the gym.
George Graikoski states that last week Richard and Brooks came to look
at the mockup. Richard Munday states
that they agreed to the mockup of the tile but that they haven’t seen the
mockup of the termination details. He
states that he needs to see the drawings. Jeff Zullo wants to know if the
contractor is on schedule on this.
George Graikoski states that this is Allied Restoration and that he is
waiting for the drawings to be approved.
Jack Healy, Chair states that there is a schedule that needs to be
adhered to and that the project manager should be pushing to get this issue
done. George Graikoski states that the
metal siding is an issue with the coping and that it is going to be a big issue
and that because mockups have been reviewed in the field and were never
followed-up in writing, so now half the coping in the building is done and
Herbert Newman wants it taken off and replaced.
George Graikoski states that he thought that they were going through a
mockup review process and taking people for their word and now they are back to
square one because when people say they did not approve things verbally, you
have to go back and replace half the coping on the building. George Graikoski states that the material is
here and he is waiting for written approval from Peter Bowman before any work
will be done. Richard Munday states that
he is waiting for the shop drawings of the siding. Jeff Zullo voices his frustration at this situation
and wants the shop drawings reviewed by Newman immediately. Richard Munday states that they have bent
over backwards on the siding issue and that it’s the contractors who created this
issue. He feels that the shop drawings should
have been given to them months ago. George Graikoski states that he has a sketch
that was reviewed and accepted to change the 9 by 9 panel to 16 by16. He states that the 9 by 9 was approved. And because of the coping issue, they want to
have everything in writing by Newman. A
lengthy discussion ensued. Richard
Munday states that going to the 16 by 16 install is a much easier install and
it’s in everyone’s interest to go to the 16 by 16 but that they do want to see
the drawing and will turn them around very quickly. Jack Healy, Chair states that they are not
making the dates and he wants this project done and done on time.
Stacie Kavle arrives
at
Jack
Healy, Chair inquires about the coping issue.
Richard Munday states that the coping issue also deals with the fascia. He states that the contractor installed the
same coping whether there is glass or metal wall panel. He states that the contractor interpreted
their direction one way and that they meant it another way. He states that when you look the photographs
of the metal siding it was evident that they anticipated putting the fascia
on. Richard Munday shows the member of
the Committee a photograph. He states
that what was done was not the intent or the design and that it does not look
good. A lengthy discussion ensued about
this issue. George Graikoski states that
the contractor claims that it was a mockup that was verbally approved in the
field by Peter Bowman and that it was being installed for months and that Peter
Bowman never said anything about it during all these months it was being
installed. He states that it only became an issue after Richard Munday reviewed
it.
George
Graikoski hands out to the members of the Committee a four page fax transmittal
from Allied Restoration Corporation dated
Richard
Munday states that this was a process that was forced upon Newman by the
contractor by not agreeing to provide the wall panel system that was specified
and not conforming to the submittal process.
Further discussion ensued about Peter Bowman and the agreement. George Graikoski states that he was at a
meeting and heard Peter Bowman approve what was being done. Jack Healy, Chair wants to get a response
from Newman on this issue and schedule a meeting to talk about this issue
before the next building committee meeting.
Richard Munday agrees that this should be done in a different
forum. It is decided that a meeting with
all the parties involved including Peter Bowman, Ernie and Allied Restoration
and a few building committee members need to take place.
Jack
Healy, Chair inquires about the reinforcement of the door to the 7th
and 8th grade wing and whether that situation is elsewhere. Richard Munday states that he has to work
with Conn Acoustics to go around the building to identify other possible
areas. He states that George Graikoski
is going to work with him on this issue.
William J. Buckley, Jr. reminds everyone that this issue was brought up
in February and was the reason the show stopper list was started. Richard Munday states that this issue will be
brought to full closure. William J.
Buckley, Jr. states that he understands that but that there is urgency to these
issues. Jack Healy, Chair wants a
resolution by next meeting.
Credit Update (O&G)
George
Graikoski states that it is being worked on now and is about fifteen thousand
dollars.

Jack Healy, Chair states that it is five classrooms that were approved to be
done. George Graikoski states that he
thinks it is four classrooms. He states
that at this time they are working on those classrooms. Jack Healy, Chair states that the noise
levels have really improved. Gary Waugh
wants some evaluation to be made for the other rooms in the wing and that the
other students deserve a classrooms that functions and that he knows it’s a
budget thing but that finance should be found to do this. He feels that there is a fairness and a
functional issue involved and that both sides of the hallway need to be done.
Parking Lot Update
(Jeff Zullo & Bill Buckley)
Jack
Healy, Chair states that there will be a meeting of the Planning and Zoning on
Monday, September 17th. He
states that he will not be there but he would appreciate if other building
committee members attend the meeting.
William J. Buckley, Jr., states that if any members attend the meeting
they should not speak or answer questions because the hearing is closed and if
you do speak and there is a favorable decision you run the risk of having that
decision thrown out in court. Jack Healy,
Chair states that the hearing is closed and that the Planning and Zoning
Commission should not ask any more questions and we should not answer any more
questions. Jeff Zullo states that he has
seen press reports that the Planning and Zoning Commission has asked the
Building Committee for options and alternative locations and wants to know if
that has been formally requested of them.
Jack Healy, Chair states that he has received no communication on that
and that if he had he would not have responded. He states that neither he nor the attorney
have been contacted and that they are just waiting now for the decision.

Finance Committee
Report
Jeff
Zullo reports that the Finance Subcommittee met before this meeting and has
been working with Peg Perusse and Deb Levoie and states that this is an ongoing
process and the Committee has a recommendation tonight to have the Building
Committee approve taking LHS and LIS architects basic services and architects
specialized consultants, architects additional services, owners engineering
consultants and architects reimbursable allowance and taken the amounts and
reallocated the line items. Jeff Zullo hands out to the members of the
Committee a report sheet with the category numbers and the amounts. Jeff Zullo discusses the report in detail.
Motion: Jeff Zullo
moved that the Committee adopt these revisions to the architects, specialized
consultants and additional services and add the line item number 124 for
architect’s reimbursable allowance and reallocate the basic amounts into those
new categories.
So moved. Seconded: William J. Buckley, Jr.
Discussion: William J. Buckley, Jr. tells George
Graikoski that he needs to incorporate these changes into the budget. Jack Healy, Chair wants to know how this
improves the budget. Jeff Zullo responds
that it went down twenty-nine thousand.
William J. Buckley, Jr. states that for the next meeting the Finance
Subcommittee will come back to the Committee members with the information on
the owner’s engineering budget. He
states that it’s not fair to say that the Committee went over twenty-nine
thousand because he feels that there may still be savings in other areas and
that number will change. William J.
Buckley, Jr. states that the motion will change the final budget for the high
school about thirty thousand and the intermediate school about twenty
thousand. He states that a follow-up
motion will be made after this motion to move monies from various line items
into contingency. He says that in the
end the final budget numbers in the sheet handed out will be greater than the
committed amount. Jeff Zullo tells
George Graikoski that in the owner’s engineering consultants there is a line
item for $148,120 committed on the high school and $21,088 that needs to be
gone through in detail to see what those charges are. George Graikoski states that those figures he
got from Peg Perusse. Jeff Zullo states
that this needs to be looked at. Jeff
Zullo states that they will continue to have meetings to review these budget issues. Further discussion ensued.
Vote:
Abstention: none.
Objection: none.
Absent: none.
All Ayes.
Motion passed.
Jeff
Zullo asks George Graikoski to make those changes and add the new line item
number 124, Architects Reimbursable Allowances.
Jeff
Zullo states that he and William J. Buckley, Jr. reviewed the soft costs for
both schools that have been budgeted but some amounts have been unexpended.
Motion: Jeff Zullo
moved that the Committee move back into contingency for the High School the
following: 15-000130 Misc. Administrative Costs in the amount of $25,000.00;
15-000161 Litchfield Building Department Inspection in the amount of $14,881.00;
15-000180 Printing, Mailing and Advertising in the amount of $22,000.00;
15-000230 Builders Risk Insurance in the amount of $14,000.00; 15-000240 Moving
Expense/Storage in the amount of $50,000.00; 15-000250 Bonding Costs in the
amount of $20,000.00 and 15-000260 Interim Financing in the amount of
$70,000.00 into 15-000290 Owners Contingency.
So moved. Seconded: William J. Buckley, Jr.
Discussion: Jack Healey discusses the line item Building
Department Inspection and feels that there will be no more expenditures and all
the bills have been paid in that category so the entire amount should be moved. He also states that there is a credit that
the Committee is still waiting for. Peg
Perusse will look into the credit for next meeting.
Amended
Motion: Gary Waugh moved to move back into
contingency 15-000161 Litchfield Building Department Inspection from the
previous motion amount of $14,881.00 the amount of $30,642.00 into 15-000290
