On the interior of the building, Lomax Construction has completed all electrical, plumbing, and HVAC rough ins. All insulation and sheetrock work has been completed and finished along with priming of the sheetrock walls. Interior doors have been hung along with the grinding, sealing and leveling of the concrete floors. The cabinets in the central sterilization room have also been set.

Lomax Construction is making good progress on the interior renovation of the Dental Clinic. Lomax Construction has completed the demolition of the interior walls, plumbing, HVAC and electrical. Lomax Construction has completed the new plumbing rough-ins, new wall framing and electrical. The concrete and asphalt where the new storm drain will be installed has been demolished. The materials for the storm drain installation have been delivered as well. Lomax Construction has also completed the trench for the retaining wall on the west side of the building.

The renovations have been completed at the Old Open Door Clinic and the Dental Clinic has temporarily moved into that space on February 7, 2022. The Dental Clinic was up and running in their temporary space by February 11, 2022. In the meantime, the Dental Clinic at the McKinney Street building will be undergoing renovations by Lomax Construction. Lomax Construction started renovation of the Dental Clinic on February 14, 2022 starting with the abatement of the VCT and mastic on the floors. Lomax Construction completed the abatement of the floors on February 14, 2022 and tested air clearance on February 17, 2022. Lomax Construction is currently working on the retaining wall on the west side of the building and renovating the interior ceiling as well as walls.

Dental Clinic Renovation and Site Drainage - Maintenance and Health Department staff met on the 24th to discuss the project cost and time frame of the renovation. ACM testing is in progress to determine how much of the mastic underneath the VCT is hot. Several areas of the building have been tested, and only one test spot has tested hot. Another meeting with PEI is scheduled for Friday October 1st to see if we need to test anymore areas and to come up with a game plan of what needs to be abated. The Dental Clinic wanted an estimate of the abatement cost and additional cost of new VCT if we have to take up all of the flooring in the building and not just what was in the specs for the renovation. They wanted this cost so they would know how much contingency to budget for the change order for the abatement and extra VCT not included in the original bid. The Health Department needs to get the County Manager's approval to approve the contract for the renovation before they can do the PO for the contract with Lomax.

Dental Clinic Renovation and Site Drainage - The pre-bid meeting for this project was held on September 3rd with 10 contractors showing up to bid on this project. The bid opening is scheduled for Wednesday September 15th at 2:00.
