Weather is always such a convenient excuse for construction delays. Weather happens every year. Surely we can prepare for it.

The school board is always behind schedule on every project they do. They should know this about themselves at this point.
In every year I've taught, in the days leading up to the first day of school there's still construction happening that they've had all summer to do. They assure us it'll be done by the first day of classes, and it hasn't happened once.

Lowest bid. Can you finish on our timeline? Yes!
Lowest bid once they start building. How the hell are we going to do that.
One of the inherent flaws with being required to go with the lowest bid. Plus any changes made after construction starts get charged at full market rates plus timelines start to go out the window. I don’t know if this is the case on this project but it happens so often on government projects. Can I say Eglinton Crosstown!
