[Summit] Fountain progress

[George Schietinger]

> George, et al.
>  
> With the exception of the new concrete walks going to the fountain and the new
> benches, most of the work completed at the project has been underground or not
> readily visible:  all of the plumbing piping to the fountain, the tie-in to
> the city water system, the plumbing under and in the fountain, the plumbing
> under the pump house, the foundation for the pump house, and pump house slab,
> the slab for the bike rack and benches, the footings for the new lights, and
> the electrical conduits and wiring for the additional lighting around the
> fountain.
>  
> We are disappointed that the pump house is not yet built...we have had permit
> issues for the water system that delayed the slab being poured and for the
> past 10 days the temperatures have been unseasonalby colder than normal which
> has not allowed us to put up concrete block and concrete.  We need 3 days of
> 45 degree weather to put up the block and then the carpentry can proceed.
>  
> The construction fence has to stay--it is the reasonable and prudent action.
> In April, we will return to the site to complete the following major items:
>  
> *  
> * Fountain cleaning

> I apologize for the delays in the project.  There have been a variety of
> issues that have delayed the project that are not the responsibility of the
> contractor.
