PERMANENT BUILDING COMMITTEE
Minutes of Wednesday January 6. 1999 meeting in Room 111 Town Office Building, as
approved January 13 1999
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Kelley at 7.35 p.m. with other PBC members
Cannalonga, Poinelli, and Touart present. Also attending were Director of School Buildings
Operation John Moynihan III, School Committee Chairman Barrie Peltz (briefly) and Dawn
McKenna of the TMMA.
Minutes of December 17 1998 were APPROVED as amended.
Proiect Management materials (4 of them) were distributed by Poinelli from his active
participation with the Boston Society of Architects Educational Facilities Committee.
Conversations with former PBC chairman Bill Kennedy history of experiences with Chartwell
and how to hire (full-time contract person deemed most economic) were among the topics. The
Project Manager would oversee the Clerks-of-the-Works (one for each facility).
Poinelli advised that the committee 'be specific and know why you are hiring a manager and
what for." Answer to latter. "Someone to do what we don't have time to do, or could not
personally do."
HMFH staffing and renegotiating contract with them discussed. The current contract now goes
through Design Development for 9 schools for $2.1 million. $1.8 million has been spent. All of
this design money is rolled into the $53.9 million for the project. A subcommittee of Poinelli
and Kelley will work with John Moynihan on this to modify scope, quality and cost.
A work elan is now needed so that DD can be closed out on each school (according to revised
plans). The PBC needs to be satisfied with the team for each school, especially its project
architect and also needs to know where each project stands currently what needs to be done that
involves PBC decisions and when.
Three invoices totaling $29 127.50 and dated October 21, 1998 were APPROVED for additional
services by HMFH as requested by the PBC for modifications to the three schools in the project,
as approved November-December 1998.
Meeting adjourned at 9.40 p.m. until Wednesday January 13, 1999 at 7.30 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
pit
