Buckley urges redress on North Adams State College ceiling work
State Auditor Thomas J. Buckley urged the Bureau of Building Construction to seek redress from the ceiling contractor for 1960 work at North Adams State College. A $343,000 renovation contract with George E. Emerson, Inc. included tiles installed under old plaster ceilings that later fell, creating hazards. Buckley noted extensions and costs, urged study of prolonging time frames, and suggested liquidated damages for contractor delays.
