V. UPDATE AND REPORT FROM:
a. Construction Manager
Mr. Shugrue of FIP reported on the status of the project. The question was raised about the progress with the old gymnasium floor problems. The Building Committee decided they would like to view the gymnasium to see for themselves what the problems look like. It was decided to go there after the meeting. The line striping of the new gym looks good and should be complete by the weekend. Mr. Evans asked how much of the new wood floor was sanded down in that process. Mr. Shugrue said very little. Mr. Frey asked if FIP would be looking to the Town to pay for some of the extra costs related to the old gym floor and Mr. Shugrue replied they would not. Everything else in the project except some punch list items.
Ms. Robinson reported the dedication ceremony is scheduled for September. The program is ready to go to the printer for approximately 500 copies. The ceremony will be in the Auditorium, and there will be refreshments served in the cafeteria. We are expecting 400 people or maybe less. We can talk about the program further before then.
