Update July 27, 2011

Great meeting at the construction trailer today. I'm sure you have seen, as you drive by, that there are LOTS of workers. At the safety meeting this week there were over 140 workers signed in. They are busy, busy, busy.

Here are a few highlights of the status:

• 2 landscaping crews working - irrigation and grading/preparation teams


• will be sodding and hydramulching soon and will water the new grass as they have been watering the trees


• all the sidewalks are finished and they are caulking them as well as the parking lot pavement


• the site fencing is close to completion


• all the canopies for the bus drive and the front drive are on the site and will be up within about 2 weeks


• the Memory Brick bench has been built in the garden area to the south of the library


• 95% of the drywall work is complete


• once drywall is complete they are following with prime coats of paint and ceiling grid...they really look like rooms!


• some carpet has been laid in the the 2, 3, 4, 5 grade areas


• library furniture will be delivered in about 2 weeks


• the front tower is almost complete - needs a roof and glass

WOW! I'll be meeting soon to begin the discussion about moving plans and move in date.
