had been initiated for units 616, 662, 700 & 770B.
Canal Side Repairs/Maintenance Project:
General discussions regarding work on first units:
In meetings with the engineer and the contractor it was determined that: 1)
it would be impractical to bid this project, 2) Walt Smelter’s pricing
is in the middle of the price range for the Ocean City area, 3) that buying
materials in larger quantities could produce significant savings, 4) when structural
repair requires removal of internal trim, wall treatments, carpeting, etc. where
does the responsibility lie for restoring internal paint, wallpaper, trim items,
5) using the engineer on an as-needed basis only for consulting would also reduce
costs and 6) the project is 6 to 8 weeks behind schedule due to weather (the
engineer confirmed that nearly all work in the OC, MD area was behind 6 to 8
weeks because of weather).
Motion:
A motion to aggressively proceed with the project through the summer months
with the objective of completing the 700 Building by December 2003 was made
by Anne Giannelli and seconded.
The motion passed unanimously.
Motion:
A motion to rescind the requirement for the contractor to restore internal trim
items was made by Frank Dean and seconded.
The motion passed unanimously.
