Each of the consultants reported to the MBC their observations of the meeting at the Jordan/Jackson
School. The members of the MBC discussed their reports. There appears to be a combination of items
that are causing the problems with the unit ventilators. These items include installation problems as well
as design problems. Steve expressed his opinion that this problem belonged to HMFH Architects, Inc. and
R. W. Granger and Sons, Inc. He felt that they should be responsible for the fix. This solution should not
be an expense to the Town. The MBC requested that J. Chelauski and J. Miller work together on a
solution. Both Emil and Rich want to see this work completed by the end of the February break. A
motion was made to give J. Chelauski and J. Miller 72 hours to respond to the MBC and School
Department with their plan to remedy the problems with the unit ventilators. If this solution is not
received than the MBC will turn this over to Town Counsel and we will take legal action against both
companies. Unanimous
