As our community is practicing social distancing, we are thankful to our contractors who have been working so hard to keep our recreation center project on track. We appreciate the pictures they have shared with us and all the work they have completed over the last month. Below are a few highlights:
- Storm water inspections went well
- Weather has been good for erosion control
- Lots of trucks going in and out, packing the soil down
- The site has been overlotted and graded
- 95% complete for excavation of the building
- Mobilized the drilling rig and put in 10-12 piers per day
- Drilling went well – soil was good and no water found
- Caissons are in place
- Began tying rebar for cages
- City of Aurora completed their final civil review
- Building permit received from the City of Aurora
- Xcel finished running wire and boring for cable
- Concrete subcontractor arrived onsite
Construction continues amid the COVID19 pandemic and safety precautions are being taken on the site. We are working closely with the City of Aurora for their inspections as they are currently running remotely with a skeleton crew. In addition, the team is working to anticipate the impact on the subcontractors and fabrication of steel. We will continue to update you on the progress of the construction and hope everyone is staying safe and healthy during this time.
