43. C0380-25 Resolution/s/ Councilor Stephanie Martins, Councilor Peter Pietrantonio, Councilor Stephanie V. Smith That the facilities maintenance director provide an update on the status of the old EHS roof project and when tenants will be back in building Facilities Maintenance Director Angelo Febbo, project manager John Supak, and contractor John Charmaya provided an update on the old Everett High School roof replacement project. All tenants are back in the building as of December 17 (Elliot Family Resource Center) and December 20 (Wellness Center grand opening). The $6.3 million project is about 95% complete with some minor items remaining. The 114,000 sq ft roof was replaced down to the original 1913 wood decking and 1970s steel decking. Councilors asked about the cause of a recent leak (incomplete flashing), lack of visible dumpsters (most were kept in rear alley), and decision to have tenants return before new mayor takes office (tenants eager to return to temporary locations). Councilor Peter Pietrantonio expressed disappointment in the rushed re-opening without an apparent plan in place for operations.
