BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS
•
D.Canavan told the Board he was uncomfortable with an estimate of $13K. He was concerned
about possibly coming up with a price of $14K, $15K or even $16K once the job was done. He
also agreed with R. Nelson about the Construction Project just getting started and prices were
already changing. He said the Board needs to keep an eye on over runs and extras.
J.Pickett echoed what D. Canavan said about the price on the bus and hoped it wouldn't go
above the estimate. He said change order costs are all part of construction.
C.Davidson thanked C. Law for input. He said he wasn't too alarmed about estimate. He also
said the delays on the construction project had been excruciating and makes the costs go up.
R. Nelson wanted to know if the brakes and frame were being addressed and if so, were they
going to get a separate cost from the estimate for Squad -12. She wanted to know where the
Board was with house numbering and wanted to know about the services provided to Service
Areas.
Chair Dolph said the brake boost is the issue and they were making arrangements to go to First
Student, which used to be Laidlaw for cost. He said house numbering and services provided to
Service Areas would be brought up at their next meeting.
C.Law told the Board C.A.R.E. was responsible for the work and there wouldn't be a charge for
it.
Chair Dolph told the Board he would check with Women's Bay Volunteer Fire Department to try
and meet in a joint work session re: Tax Incentive, Services and House numbers.
MEETING SCHEDULE
