The Starke County Courthouse elevator project is mostly on schedule.
Shawn Cain from K-IRPC told the Starke County Commissioners on Monday night that things are going smoothly so far. The construction completion date is May 1st, but she said grant paperwork may need more time
“It appears that we’re going to be on time, if not slightly delayed, but it will only be slightly,” said Cain. “It’s been a minimal interruption to the court system.
“I am going to be asking for an extension on our completion date. The completion date is currently May 31, but we’re going to extend that to about 30 days just to get us to the end of the month to allow for some extra time for us to get draws completed and everything wrapped up.”
Cain noted that the contractor, Gibson-Lewis, LLC, submitted the first claim which is approximately $120,000. The commissioners did not necessarily have to approve the claim as the money was already approved in the grant. However, the commissioners approved a motion to continue with the grant itself.
