Monkton Vermont

Much progress had been made in the two months since the Town voted to build new Town Offices and a Library on the Monkton Ridge lot adjacent to the Friends Methodist Church.  The firm Naylor and Breen was hired in late February to oversee construction – at the moment they are signed to a preconstruction contract which includes scheduling, permitting, and assembling a team of subcontractors to complete the work.  Using a Construction Manager allows the project to be subdivided into smaller pieces, allowing local contractors to be part of the project.  To date they have managed the bidding process for the Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) subcontractors with Black River Mechanical Services (BRMS) and RVG Electrical signed to design/build contracts.  In addition, they are putting the civil bid package (site work) out to bid and a geotechnical engineering firm is scheduled to drill boring holes this week to determine soil characteristics.  The project remains on, or ahead of, schedule with construction slated to begin in early August.  While Covid19 continues to be a concern, especially when it comes to construction season, early portions of the construction will take place outside with small crews.  Continue reading →
