In November and December the long-delayed suspended serpentine ceiling was installed.  The carpet work was also completed.

No further work has been done by the general contractor, and in late December the police jury terminated the general contractor and invoked the performance bond.

The attorney for the police jury and the attorney for the surety company have been involved in the paperwork claims process that will allow the surety company to come in and take over and complete the project.

In the meantime, several meetings have been held with representatives of the police jury and representatives of the surety.  The building has been inspected by representatives of the surety, and lists of the work remaining have been compiled and given to representatives of the surety.

We do not know when the work will start back up.  There is very little left to do, but the building is not at the substantial completion stage yet.

As soon as we know more, we will post it here.
