A multi-million dollar construction project continues in down town Thief River Falls as the Pennington County Justice Center, an expansion of the Law Enforcement Center, continues to make progress, with an update yesterday to the Pennington County Board of Commissioners.
The Board approved five change orders Tuesday, including the addition of vehicle storage area insulation, added insulation to parapet walls and the Soil Engineer recommended, addition of drain tile.
Other changes included addition of a supply duct, addition of emergency smoke curtains to an elevator shaft and an increase in size of planned skylights.
Contrgrity Group Construction Manager Peter Filippi says he anticipates no delays in the coming weeks weather permitting.
Filippi says crews are in the process of doing masonry work on the East side of the building, a sound system for the future Court House is currently out for pricing and window installation at the site is scheduled for December.
County Commissioners have scheduled a second tour of construction progress at the Justice Center on November 28th.
