schedule and by Stone ' s financials , they are 4 weeks behind. <br /> Paul said early in the job it is a concern but you have to wait <br /> until the steel is up to say where they will be . <br /> Paul said today, for the first time, on the agenda is a <br /> discussion of contingency plan. He thinks the Committee should <br /> discuss this with Dr. DeMoura and Mr. Williams once each month. <br /> Paul believes , if the building is running behind schedule and not <br /> ready to open Sept . 1, at least a portion - 1 wing can be ready <br /> for use . <br /> Dr. DeMoura asked if the contractor will allow occupancy of a <br /> portion of the building? <br /> Paul does not think it will be a problem. <br /> Dr. Demoura asked about providing a due date for equipment <br /> delivery when it goes out to bid. <br /> Paul said he will discuss steps that can be taken in regard to <br /> that . <br /> Bill said the Committee was advised early on that it was not a <br /> good idea to have construction going on while students are in the <br /> building . <br /> Paul said he has been thinking of things that can make it work. <br /> The work will be mostly finish work. There will be no site work <br /> going on. The exterior will be a finished building. <br /> The students can enter and exit from the bus drop off end of the <br /> building. <br /> They can punchlist that area of the building before occupancy. <br /> They can open without a cafeteria. Gym class can be outside. The <br /> completion of the building will be off by 1-2 months , not a long <br /> time. <br /> He suggested they can modify the furniture and equipment RFP so <br /> there is a line item for storage in case of delay. This cost <br /> will be part of their bid and the Committee can exercise that <br /> right if necessary. <br /> Paul asked Mr. Williams to prepare for the Committee the minimum <br /> requirements he can get by with for the 7 ,8 and 9th grades for 30 <br /> and 60 days . <br /> Paul will talk with Bill Hauck about the possibility of opening a <br /> portion of the building. <br /> Another key issue is getting the building closed in for the <br /> winter - getting a permanent structure up. <br /> Paul explained that a delay of one week for the steel is not <br /> equal to a delay 1 week later. Now the delay is preventing 104 <br /> men from working , it is a major delay. <br /> The commitment from Stone to double the crew is an important one <br /> and Paul would not accept anything less than that. <br /> 2 <br />
