It opened in August of 1997. Ongoing projects supervised from Houston will be overseen by the Kansas City office, according to a company spokesperson.

Subcontractors' complaints against DiCarlo led to the company's being dismissed in late March from a contracting job at a convention center in Fort Smith, AR. Reports also indicate that the construction company may lose as much as $1 million on a project in Oklahoma. The state-owned resort did not open until late last month, nearly 16 months behind the scheduled opening.

The Houston office of DiCarlo Construction managed both of those projects.

Two other projects, with a value of about $12 million, were under the supervision of the DiCarlo's Houston office. One, an apartment building being built for the San Antonio Housing Authority, is scheduled to be completed by mid-summer. The other, the Montgomery County Justice Center in Houston, is slated to be finished early next year.

In Ames, IA, DiCarlo Construction is working on a $24-million residence hall at Iowa State University. That project is scheduled to be completed in November. In February, one subcontractor filed a claim stating DiCarlo owed the company nearly $600,000.

Closer to Kansas City, DiCarlo is currently working on an $8-million sports field complex in Liberty that has been delayed. The opening was scheduled for April 2.

DiCarlo, which has been in business for more than a half-century, does more than three-quarters of its business in the Kansas City marketplace. Billings filed by the company in 1999 amounted to about $125 million.
