June 28, 2024

Barker Contracting continues making progress completing the OV Court Expansion project. The interior walls have been completed and soon drywall surfacing will begin. That work includes HVAC ductwork, electrical and communication conduits, lighting, fire sprinkler and alarm in the new added space that is Phase 1 of the project. The bathrooms are in this area and much of the work has been completed in preparation for installation of drywall. The foundations are placed for the entry canopy to the west and work continues. When visiting our campus, please pardon our noise and use caution in the construction zone.

The OV Court Expansion project is making good progress, on budget and on schedule. The utilities have been connected, the existing concrete slabs demolished and replaced, walls installed, HVAC (air conditioning) is being installed on the roof. The millwork contract is underway and vendor selection will occur this month. Contracts are in place for the access control with APL and extending the fiber communications with ACE, all contracting directly with the Town. These contracts will be coordinated over the following months to allow the court staff to move into the new addition this fall.

Construction of the metal stud exterior walls was completed this week following the concrete floor last Friday. Work is beginning for HVAC (Heating, Cooling And Ventilation) improvements and the extensive communication and security needs of the court.

Barker Construction is making great progress with Phase 1 of the Expansion project.  They have completed the demolition of the floor and installation of the utilities for the new bathrooms.  The floor was placed today which marks the biggest and noisiest activity in Phase 1, the construction of the new building space.  The work on the improvements will continue over the summer and the Phase 1 work will be completed in the fall.  The picture shows the contractor ‘soft sawing’ the concrete to control cracking.  This is done rather than tooled joints as it provides a better flat floor installation of flooring later in the project, while effectively controlling the cracking.

April 11, 2024

Work has started on the expansion with the start of the ceiling removal in the breezeway.  This week, Barker Construction will begin jackhammering and sawing the concrete slab for removal. This will be disruptive and is currently scheduled to occur tomorrow and Friday, April 11 and 12.  Please be aware of noise and other construction activities impacting the site should you visit our campus.  Depending on progress, this will likely extend into early the following week.

March 23, 2024

Please be advised that construction will be taking place at Town Hall, Building B, beginning Monday, April 1st. The scope of the project involves an expansion of the Town Court Building, adding approximately 2,000 square feet to the existing facility, as well as remodeling some of the existing interior spaces.

The construction is expected to last until March 2025. During that time, the contractor will be utilizing parking spaces to the north of the facility as a laydown yard for materials and equipment. Temporary fencing will be installed around the work area, but please exercise caution when walking near the construction zone.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we improve our Town Court facilities to better serve our community.
