During the PBA advisory meeting, the owner's representative reported that recent testing found columns around the ICB building to be deficient and that engineers, the architect and contractor are evaluating remedial steps.

Bill said teams are "meeting right now on the most efficient way to move forward," and that the testing showed the columns were "very deficient." He explained that any lateral or vertical bracing will likely need to come from inside the building because "the city owns the outside of the property," and the presence of an OG&E vault on site limits exterior options.

When asked about potential costs, board members were told no estimate was yet available; Bill said the work "won't be low," and the parties are pursuing interior remediation and reinforcement plans. The transcript records discussion of reinforcing exterior columns and interior framing bracing, and that remedial repair will be required to address structural deficiencies.

Board members moved to receive the PBA owner's representative report; the motion was seconded and passed. The transcript does not include a roll-call or named tallies. Officials said engineers and the architect will continue to assess repair methods and costs before returning with recommendations; no timeline for final repair or procurement was provided in the meeting.
