Update 11th August 2016
Building Work starts on 22nd August 2016 and is due to finish in Mid-December 2016.
The contractor is Aumas Ltd. Their working hours are Mon. to Friday, 07.00 – 17.30.
If they need to work on a Saturday it will be by strict agreement with the Club and members will be advised of it via the club’s website via this page and on Facebook.
The contract administrator, in charge on behalf of club, is Mark Adams. Mark, the Laser Fleet Captain, is a Quantity Surveyor at GNA in West Bridgford. He is the only person authorised to communicate with the contractor on behalf of the club, and should only be contacted via the Commodore – Ross Ryan.
Please read the advice below in conjunction with the site plan (below). The Project will involve some disruption to members from the outset as the Contractor creates & encloses working areas around the parts of the building that they will be working on, these are out of bounds for contractural and safety reasons:
- From the start the west door from the main car park will be closed and out of use while the new extended west balcony and extension is built & decked over.
- The top of the middle slipway on the north side of the clubhouse will be closed to all but pedestrian access
- There will be a temporary access to the lower part of this slipway across the grass by the removal of a couple of timber bollards north of the closed part
- The Contractor will form a fenced-off store for their materials & equipment. This will be to the south of the club starting behind the Safety Store in the car-park and will take up 5-6 spaces there.
- This compound and all other fenced off areas are strictly out of bounds for children and adults. Building sites can be dangerous so only people authorised by the Aumas’ Contracts Manager are permitted inside them. This includes committee members and the like. Parents please ensure you know where your children are at all times during the build period.
- As well as raising the new west balcony and building the changing room & training room extensions on it, the Contractor will be progressively working around the club to replace all the external doors & windows, also all the weatherboarding up to each side of the existing conservatory which stays unchanged.
- The Ladies’ Changing Room will get a new temporary external escape door; only for use in emergencies; not for normal use! This provides an escape from the Changing Room and from the Galley in the event of a fire in the latter.
- There is more need to be vigilant about security as Building Sites often seem to attract undesirables.
The ground directly under the existing balcony at the car park side of the clubhouse [west side] will be cleared before the Contractor encloses it to start their work.
The whole space beneath the club house is only to store the club’s craft, equipment and materials; nothing else; so while we are moving everything else around there we are taking the opportunity to sort this out properly!
Anything there that does not belong to Training or the Bosun or the Club in General will be hauled out from under the club and disposed of; sold off, given away or skipped.
If anyone has left anything of theirs under the clubhouse please remove it by 12th August.
Access to Clubhouse during Building work will be via Conservatory, an email has already been sent to all club members explaining access (if you haven’t received it you need to check your junk mail for NCSC Admin and allow it, or contact the Vice Commodore so he can resend your password). The email address used is the one on the database.
The Disabled Toilet will be used by the Contractors. They will keep it & the clubhouse as clean as possible. If there are any comments please direct these to the Commodore Ross Ryan or in his absence Nicki Theokritoff.
