Marshall Fire Recovery Schedule Worksheet

Thank you to Colin Bunker at Kiewit Infrastructure for producing this valuable tool.

General Guidance on How to Use File:

The objective of this document is to help you understand the timeline for building your home. This is important to understand in order to manage your out of pocket expenses that WILL arise as insurance coverage begins to
end for supplemental housing and other needs. The scheduling system breaks our different aspects that need to be considered when building a home. Your task is to fill out the schedule with a start date for each task and how
long you and your team believes it will take to complete a task. One strategy to use is to start with from the end date. Determine when you need or must be moved into your new home (based on insurance coverage, other
economics, or for other reasons) and then work with your team (primarily your builder) to fill out the schedule in a way seems achievable to both of you. Remember that constructing a house takes time and there are often
unforeseen obstacles which add time so be realistic and plan for extra time.

1) While no cells are locked, the Cells colored Yellow are intended for the user to refine
2) Start dates not colored have an assumed connection to a predecessor, it can be overwritten by user
3) Durations are in Calendar days (i.e. 1 week = 7 (days))
4) "Finalize plans" starts when geotechnical, drainage, survey, and utility design are all complete
5) Date Ranges are a best guess and are only provided to help prompt thoughtfulness for each step
6) The bar chart is intended to be self-coloring based of start, duration, and finish
7) you can change the start date and the duration and customize this schedule for your project. Play with some start dates
and duration refinements to better understand how the spread sheet adjusts the schedule.

Owned by property owner

Owned by builder, but property owner should track

Topics for Consideration:

2 Build a Construction Team: Architect, builder, engineer, and energy consultant are the key players but the builder's trade partners will also become important and the builder will need to involve them in planning before
construction begins. For a successful build there must be a goal. In the Marshall Fire rebuild the goal will revolve around speed of construction and the incentive program that is chosen. The design and specifications for how to
build the house come from these goals and from conversations with the people on this core team. Look at the Rebuildingbetter.org website for questions you can ask builder's and architects when choosing who to work with.

3 The Builder that is selected will ultimately drive the time line of construction and duration refinement of tasks for the rest of the scheduling sheet. You will primarily work with the builder to nail down start dates and duration of
tasks to populate this projected time line. One questions to ask is do they need a contract to start pre-planning (survey, design, etc..) effort, or is an LOI good for action?
5 Geotech resources (soils testing before foundation design and installation can occur) are not readily available for small projects, nor do they regularly guarantee report production timeline. Research if there is an existing report for
your property that structural and permitting would accept? the Fire did not affect each property in the same way. Some foundations can be reused and some soils do not need to be retested.

6 Question to get answered: Can the plans be finalized off an assumption and only confirmed when the Geotech report is received?
8 Questions to get answered: Is a building site specific drainage plan needed for a rebuild, can the existing plan on record be recycled from previous build effort? How does the community drainage plan affect the specific building
site and will anything need to be amended to comply with community needs.
9 Questions to get answered: Can the existing building site survey on record be recycled from previous build effort? This could save time?
10 Homebuilder reliant on neighborhood plan to define connection points. Good communication will be needed if new house has shifted its location on the buildable lot. The builder will need to know if the wet utility will be
replacing or updating underground infrastructure due to the fire.
11 Homebuilder reliant on neighborhood plan to define connection points. Good communication will be needed if new house has shifted its location on the buildable lot. The builder will need to know if the dry utility will be replacing
or updating infrastructure due to the fire. In some areas, for example, electrical infrastructure may be going underground.
14 Plan review, although expedited still takes time. You will wan to see if you can submit and get plan review started as soon as possible. Remember that many others are submitting as well and there will be a Queue. Go to the
specific jurisdictions website and download the submittal checklists. If submittal is not complete ask if construction can start with notes like "Accepted as Noted" and a requirement to resubmit specified details?

15 Duration will likely be longer for custom homes or the first submission of each typical plan for production homebuilder. Remember the jurisdiction will need to review each plan and there will be a point when they are flooded with
submittals. Get your building permit submittal in the QUEUE as soon as possible.

16 Duration of Procurement of building materials and Mobilization of trade partners to build the house, can vary widely. Bigger builders will often only start a certain number of houses a month and smaller builders may not have the
capacity to start more than a few at one time. You need to determine when construction will start and how you will fit into the builders construction schedule. When will they commit to starting construction. Due to supply chain
issues you may need to begin thinking about ordering mechanicals, appliances, and/or building materials now so that the construction schedule is not pushed back. Consult with your builder about the Duration of this task as it is
likely going to me multiple tasks lines rather than just one. Construction should be able to start without full procurement of materials for example. That being said construction happens in a sequenced methodical way and
scheduling and procurement of building materials needs to be thought our well, especially in our current economy.

17 The actual construction cycle on average is around 270 days. Work with your builder to understand how long they project construction to take.
18 Note that most insurance companies will stop paying for "Temporary Living" after 24 months, meaning most people will stop receiving this benefit if they do not move in before January 2024!! As stated above, you might use
your desired move in date as the starting point for creating this HOME BUILDING SCHEDULE AND PROCESS PLANNER. Remember it might not be set in stone but after you and your builder agree that you have a good plan both
sides will feel better.
