Architect Dave Johnston appeared and spoke with the Board about the time element for the Gardiner Community Center. Work was due to be com- pleted on August 22, 1979 but the contractor has not yet comleted the job, basically due to kitchen cabinates being late. The contractor used a cabinet maker that wasn't prequalified by the Architect. It took alot of time before the cabinets were up to specifications. August 20, 1979 Johnston received the correct shop drawings for the cabinets. Johnston feels the contractor is mainly at fault for the job not being completed on schedule.
