Nevin Coppock abatement/ demolition to begin in May

The Tipp City Board of Education held a special meeting on Wednesday, April 30, at the Board building. The board approved a contract with Shook Construction Company to abate and demolish Nevin Coppock Elementary School. Nevin Coppock has been closed since spring 2024 in anticipation of being demolished to provide space for the new PK-8 building. The abatement and demolition project is GMP Amendment #4.1 (Guaranteed Maximum Price Amendment), the first of several projects needed to supplement the construction of the PK-8 building.

Superintendent Aaron Moran commented at the meeting that the Shook contract had been reviewed by the OFCC (Ohio Facilities Construction Commission), Tipp School’s partner in the PK-8 design and construction. He also noted that abatement for Nevin Coppock (removing known hazardous material) will likely occur soon, in mid-to-late May, with demolition starting in mid-June and finishing by August.

The Board then adjourned.
