Nell,

Here is an update on the items we discussed last week regarding the construction management plan:

1)     Crane location and durations for erection of structure and exterior walls

a.     Crane for structure will be placed on Union Street.  The construction fence along Union will have to be extended into the public way for 2‑3 weeks and Consigli anticipates this will occur in early July.

b.    Consigli is meeting with their subcontractors and crane service tomorrow to review the exterior wall panel erection on site.  It is highly likely that the metered parking on Fore Street will have to be taken out of service to complete this work.  Consigli anticipates the timeframe for this work is 2‑3 weeks and will occur in late July / early August.  An update will be sent to you later this week following this on site meeting tomorrow.

2)     Contractor Parking ‑ Consigli discussed contractor parking with John Peverada last week and will confirm options for contractor parking

a.     Current Parking Options under review by Consigli include ‑

                                          i.    Midtown Lot

                                         ii.    Portland Square Lot

                                        iii.    Spring Street Parking Garage

                                        iv.    Gravel Lot at corner or Park Street and Commercial Street

b.    Consigli will also develop correspondence to subcontractors with options for parking (once confirmed in Item 2a above), none of which will include on street metered parking adjacent the project site.

c.     If Consigli notices construction personnel persistently using on street metered parking, then they will request they move their vehicles to designated parking areas or into parking garages.

3)     Detour Plan ‑ Consigli is issuing a draft detour plan to Tom Eriko on this date and will set up a meeting with Tom to review and finalize. (See attached traffic plan)

4)     Limits of Union Street construction fence near Central Maine Power property

a.     Consigli has provided Central Maine Power their construction management plans throughout the process of finalizing the easement needed to obtain a foundation permit.  The construction management plan sent to CMP in mid‑December 2012 shows the limit of construction fence adjacent the curb cut into the CMP property.  This construction management plan, along with a plan to protect the electrical infrastructure, has been review and approved by CMP.

b.    Consigli and Shinberg are meeting with Central Maine Power on Friday, 1/18 and will confirm that the limit of construction fence, as previously approved, will be implemented.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

Subject: Canal Plaza Hotel ‑ Construction Management Plan

Nell,

Consigli has addressed the comments from our December meeting and updated the construction management plan.

The updated plan includes the construction fence along Fore Street with a 24 foot wide access as discussed (7 feet for parking and 17 feet for one way traffic / fire department access), but one challenge that remains is crane access. When cranes are on site, Consigli will have to extend their construction fence into either Fore or Union Street (depending on what we are working on) to complete work.  It is anticipated that the erection of the building structure will require a 2‑3 week period where Union Street fence line will have to be extended and again for a 2‑3 week period along Fore and Union Streets during the exterior wall systems erection.

I understand we have to develop further details from a traffic perspective (detour plan, temporary pavement markings), which will be forthcoming later this week.

Please contact me to discuss this update and if any other information is necessary.

In the meantime, I would like to target a date for the preconstruction meeting for the week of January 21st.  Please let me know if there are preferable dates and times during this for City representatives.  Consigli can host if we need a larger space to conduct this meeting.

Thanks.
