independent engineering firm , to
examine the new building for
structural defects and to propose
some solutions.
James M e rrifie ld , of the
Portland firm Moffatt, Nichol
and Bonney, filed a report Jan. 16
with the district, after six weeks
of study on the building and its
site.
M errifield’s report supported
home builder Shannon’s earlier
contention that the site was not
adequately prepared prior to
construction. The report stated,
“ The single most questionable
item in the construction is the
earth which underlies the con
crete floor slabs.”
Merrifield proposed to the
board a variety of possible
solutions, including removing the
existing floor slab and doing
proper excavating, filling and
compacting of the sub-grade
before replacing the slab.
An alternative proposal was to
d rill holes in the floor ap
proximately every five feet and
install small pillars down into
original soil which would suspend
the slab and prevent sinking as
the sub-grade materials com
pacted naturally.
M errifield’s conclusion was
that other flaws in the building
could be corrected more easily
than the problem with the sub
grade, and that is the puzzle
which w ill occupy board mem
bers and their architect in the
immediate future.
Another hot potato w ill be
determining financial respon
sibility for the corrections and
repairs made to the building.
Citizens have repeatedly asked,
“ Who’s going to pay for all this?”
District administrators and
board members are answering,
“ We don’t know.”
Meetings involving the ar
chitect, the primary contractor,
G lynbrook Construction of
Salem, and the board, w ill ad
dress that question over the
coming weeks.

money earmarked for county
