1 <br /> MASHPEE HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE <br /> DECEMBER 17, 1996 <br /> EXECUTIVE SESSION <br /> Present: Paul Griffin, Merry Sue Ahlgren, Joe Polito,Bill Martiros, Steve Greelish, Peter <br /> Dinizio, Janice Mills, Ed Frenette, Jim Byrne, Tom Wren <br /> Paul explained that he does not believe Stone has any plans to work on the building over the <br /> holiday. With this new person in charge what we've seen is what we will get. This Committee <br /> is not going to see any more of the work Stone is supposed of perform get done. <br /> Merry Sue asked what the value of the work that needs to be done is? <br /> Ed Frenette is working on that. SMMA staff is going through it. At this point it is hard to say. <br /> Paul said we want SMMA to give us the high water mark. <br /> Peter asked what Liberty's responsibility is? <br /> Paul said we will go after Liberty for their obligation. We have the right to do that in a few <br /> ways: <br /> - we can have Liberty get someone to come in to do the work. <br /> - we cash in the bond and choose someone to do the work. <br /> t Paul's first preference is to give it to Liberty and keep pointing fingers at work we don't like. He <br /> would rather fight with them than another contractor and try to itdentify issues between the two. <br /> It will be a long, difficult process between termination of Stone's contract and having someone <br /> Jwalking onto the job to do the work. He wants to be sure we can live with things as they are <br /> now in the building. <br /> Merry Sue asked if the rolling door will be fixed? <br /> Paul said he does not believe Stone has executed the CCD to do that work. <br /> Bill asked at what point do we move forward with this? Let's stop wasting time and make a <br /> motion now to terminate Stone's contract. <br /> Ed Frenette said he would recommend waiting until after the holidays. If they don't do any work <br /> then, it will give you another bullet in your gun. <br /> Paul said town counsel has devised a strategy and because of the timeframe required for <br /> notifications, we were going to use the holidays to let the timetable tick away. He would like <br /> the Selectmen to meet next week to vote on this. <br /> Merry Sue asked what was left in their contract that we haven't paid them? $1.8 million. <br /> Steve said we have waited this long. We should establish a deadline of work over the holdiays <br /> and let them put their head in the noose. <br /> Paul said we asked them for a letter explaining what work will be done over the holidays. It is <br />
