4.0Disclosure of Pecuniary Interest None.
5.0Construction Items
5.1Building Shift Pricing ReviewPricing received and reviewed with consultants.
Addition shift was due to inaccurate existing drawings and survey of existing
conditions. Building shift slightly improves functionality. Slight shift at new
Elevator also required, also due discrepancyin dimensions of existing condition.
Pricing is now $45,000 escalation and volatile market conditions are responsible
for the inflation of this amount from original estimate.
5.2North Courtyard Walking LoopExcavation was encroaching on North Courtyard
more than originally anticipated, so small amount of concrete needed to be added
in order to maintain walking loop. Fence was also moved to allow more usable
space for residents.
5.3Medication Safety Funding / Potential Floor Plan RevisionsFunding received for
medication safety. Five choices provided for improving medication safety, through
technology. Self-assessment still required (scheduled for end of month), in order
to determine needs at each LTC Home. Automatic dispensing units may need to
be incorporated into Medication Rooms.
6.0Construction Schedule
6.1Review of current construction scheduleNo concerns about schedule for
concrete foundations. Procurement of revised structural steel detailing is a
concern. There will be a delay between completionof foundations and arrival of
structural steel on site (estimated to arrive in early August 2021). This would shift
turnover of Phase 1 to August 2022.
7.0Other Business None.
8.0Date of Next Meeting TBD. All in agreement that next meeting will be called as
needed.
