Title
Discussion of issues relating to the Maxwell Adult Center Change Orders and Contingency Modifications.
Body
During the demolition process further issues were identified by the general contractor and communicated to the architect, structural engineer and City staff. The issues included connecting electrical service from the building to CenterPoint pole. Demolition discovered excessive mold which required additional demo services, waterproofing and applied services which also included some structural work in the sheet rock and issues with an existing roof drain and a clogged sanitary line. Additionally the interior concrete floor had dropped several inches and there was a gap in the southwest corner tilt wall that also eluded to the discovery of a pier that was cracking. Finally due to the pier structure additional architectural services were required. Attached will be the change orders identifying the issues.
