County reviews $262,822.78 pay application and construction progress on courthouse renovation

Turner Construction Company submitted Application for Payment No. 17 for the Dallas County Courthouse Renovation (period ending 08/31/2026), requesting $262,822.78. Farnsworth Group certified the application and supplied continuation sheets and a detailed August 2026 project summary to county staff for review during the Sept. 1 supervisors meeting.

The Turner package states: “Please find attached our Pay Application #17 in the amount of $262,822.78 for work performed on the above referenced project,” and includes line‑item continuation sheets for subcontractors and retainage calculations. The project summary attached by Turner and Farnsworth reports Level 2 is substantially complete and nearly ready for turnover, with Level 3 advancing through drywall finishing and overhead mechanical/electrical/plumbing (MEP) rough‑ins. The submission lists scheduled milestones and a schedule lookahead through owner occupancy in September–October 2026.

County staff presented the certified application as part of capital projects; no formal vote was recorded in the document feed. The materials also include detailed subcontractor payment applications (JC Toland Painting, Waldinger Corporation, Des Moines Steel Fence, Unplugged Wireless Communication and others) that feed into the overall pay application and percent‑complete figures. The county will rely on the architect/engineer certification and the contractor’s backup when authorizing payment.
