Frog Pond Primary Contractor Update
Posted by West Linn - Wilsonville School District on 4/10/2025The West Linn-Wilsonville School District is excited to share that a contractor has been selected to resume work at Frog Pond Primary in Wilsonville.
The construction contract for Frog Pond Primary School was terminated in December, 2024 due to the contractor failing to pay subcontractors and suppliers. The school district has worked with the bonding company, Zurich, to resume work under the terms of the performance bond. Zurich has selected a completion contractor, Triplett Wellman Contractors, to lead the effort on site. Triplett Wellman is a well known contractor in the Oregon public school construction space that has built numerous projects in the area. Their experience includes successfully completing the new Sunset Primary School in West Linn in 2017.
Zurich is also working with the subcontractors and suppliers on the project to address issues regarding payments from the previous contractor. Many of these firms have received payments and have already agreed to return to complete their work. Zurich expects to secure agreements with all the original subcontractors and suppliers with outstanding work to finish the project. Additional costs related to these events are the responsibility of the bonding company, so the District does not expect increased costs to complete the project.
The Frog Pond Primary School construction site will begin to see activity in the coming weeks as Triplett Wellman coordinates the return of subcontractors. The District expects the project to be substantially complete in the late fall of 2025. Interested community members can learn more about the Frog Pond Primary project on the district website. -
