Thalia Mara Hall Updates – Week 3

Posted on September 26, 2024


The City of Jackson is currently awaiting additional proposals to ensure we get the best pricing and least disruptive timeline regarding Thalia Mara Hall. We will continue to publish updates every Thursday as additional developments are made.
  1. 9/23: Contractor site visits for proposal submissions
  2. 9/24: Contractor site visits for proposal submissions
  3. 9/25: Chiller connection and testing, Fire Alarm testing, Fire, Electrical, and Signage assessments performed as part of the Fire Marshal report response
  4. 9/25: Fire Marshal Response report submitted
Next Steps:
  1. Quote comparisons for remediation: The City of Jackson is still facilitating site visits to inform proposal submissions from additional vendors to ensure we get the best pricing and least disruptive timeline regarding remediation. More information on proposal submission will be forthcoming.
  2. Secondary testing results are expected this week.
  3. We are working in partnership with the State Fire Marshal’s office to correct findings and violations in their report, and many minor violations have already been remedied.
We still do not know when remediation will begin and have not yet received the completed proposals from the new parties. We also requested proposal revisions from the first company to address new findings by Mr. Al-Turk, a city-contracted engineer.
