The City Council and SPDC need to consider extending Dean Construction's contract 34 days, which would make the new substantial completion date September 22, 1995.

Hawk, City Manager FROM: Kim McAdams, Park Project Manager SUBJECT: CMS Gym/Recreation Center Construction Progress Update Soil testing of the gym site has unveiled a serious design problem for the construction of the gym. The design architects and engineers used recent soil testing information from other CMS additions to design and bid the new gym. Before pier drilling began, actual on site soil test were performed that showed a dramatic difference in the sub -surface soils of the gym site. The gym site soils will not meet compaction tests. The contractor, Ridgemont, has been ordered to stop construction today, January 11. The architects, engineers and testing technicians are looking at various options of redesign to solve the problem. Staff is concerned that the quality of the structure not be compromised and that the cost not be increased, if at all possible. I am working with Warren Anderson, CISD's Project Manager, to review options. We are targeting Monday, January 23, to review and consider options with staff. If you have any questions, please call me at extension 757. itf�
