OPM outlines schedule; seismic surveys done, additional borings set for Aug. 17

Chris, the owner's project manager, told the committee the team conducted seismic refraction surveys in early July and is awaiting results. He said an additional one-day borings campaign is planned for August 17 to investigate urban fill found near the northmost ball field and that any field disturbance would be repaired later that week.

Peter reviewed the OPM's milestone schedule and said the team is targeting a construction start of 07/01/2027, with phased activities (early bid packages, foundations, steel, envelope, MEP work and punch-list) continuing through to substantial completion and closeout in 2029. Chris and Mary Lee emphasized that site investigations are intended to reduce uncertainty before construction documents and procurement.
