Re:  
Invitation to Testify before the Committee on Culture, Youth, Aging, Sports, and Parks 
on the Paul E. Joseph Stadium Project on November 19, 2025. 
 
Dear Senator Bolques: 
 
Thank you for your invitation to participate in the upcoming hearing scheduled for Wednesday, 
November 19, 2025, at the Fritz E. Lawaetz Legislative Hall on St. Croix. Due to a prior 
commitment, during which I will be out of the country, I will not be able to attend the hearing 
regarding the Paul E. Joseph Stadium Project. Additionally, I am also unable to designate a 
representative to appear on my behalf.  
 
While I cannot attend the November 19, 2025, hearing, please note that the Contract (including 
Contract No. C003SPRC15, Contract No. C003ASPRC15 (Supplemental Contract No. 1), and 
Contract No. PO-24-810-8102-688 (Supplemental Contract No. 2)) remains current through 
December 25, 2025, in line with executed change orders.  
 
Since the Contract has been executed and the Notice to Proceed has been issued, the Department 
of Public Works (“DPW”) leads the supervision and overall oversight of the ongoing project in 
line with its statutory responsibilities. DPP supports DPW, and the Department of Sports, Parks, 
and Recreation (“SPR”), through the review of change orders and supplemental contracts, 
interpretation of terms and conditions, and resolution of disputes. As of the date of this 
correspondence, no additional change orders have been processed since the July 2025 hearing on 
the subject, and therefore, the Department has no supplemental documentation to share.  
 
DPP appreciates the Committee’s interest in the project, and we look forward to continued 
collaboration with the Department of Public Works, the Department of Sports, Parks and 
Recreation, and all other stakeholders to see this Project through to completion.
