COS fine arts building project on hold after additional costs identified
Mike Meyer
Renovation of the theatre at College of the Siskiyous and the rebuilding of the school’s fine arts classrooms and studios have been paused at the request of construction managers. The project is in early design stages.
The 53-year-old theatre structure’s outside stucco and inside plaster is being evaluated since building materials used in 1968 are considered hazardous now. In addition, some of the building’s features are below today’s fire safety standards, among other criteria.
The step-back reassessment will help determine the full scope of the theatre renovation and additional cost, according to Sean Blaylock, managing owner of Alma Strategies. Alma and Trover Construction Project Management were hired by the college as construction managers in November 2020.
