Bayfield County Administration Building
Washburn, Wisconsin
Final Project Report - July 31, 1969
At 10:00 a.m., on June 30, 1969, the Bayfield County Executive Committee met
with the architect, engineers, and all prime contractors to conduct the inspection
for the Substantial Completion of Phase I for the addition and alterations to the
Bayfield County Administration Building in Washburn, Wisconsin. Also present were
Mr. Edward Pajala and Mr. Edwin Dashner.
A list of incomplete and unacceptable work was prepared during this meeting by
the architect and engineer for submission to the contractors for completion prior
to issuance of Final Certificate for Payment.
After this inspection, the contractors were issued Certificates of Substantial
Completion indicating the owner's full possession of the building project at 12:01
a.m., July 1, 1969, at which time all guarantees became effective. These certifi-
cates further stated that the contractors shall continue their Liability & Property
Damage Insurance until issuance of Final Certificate for Payment. Also included
was the responsibility of the contractors for the cleaning of any area affected -by
the completion of his work.
An inspection by the architect on July 9, 1969, and a subsequent inspection by
the engineer bn-July 16, 1969, indicated that all mechanical and electrical correct-
ions had been completed, and the Final Certificates for Payment were issued for
those trades.
Final Certificate for Payment to the general contractor was delayed due to some
work which was to be completed by the general sub -contractors.
During the cleaning and preparation of the office spade for occupancy, it was
reported to the architect that the seamless terrazzo floor in the vault indicated
faulty workmanship, and after inspection by the architect, an order was issued to
replace the floor.
July 31, 1969
This floor has now been replaced and all other general construction work has -
been completed. The Final Certificate for Payment will be issued for the general
contractor as soon as a final inspection can be made.
Intermittent inspections of this project will be continued by the architect dur-
ing the guarantee period to determine any problems which may arise after the offices
are occupied, and corrections will be ordered as necessary.
It has been a pleasure to serve Bayfield County in the design and supervision
of this project.
Respectfully submitted,
