Entry 9: Construction Breaks Ground

Construction Breaks Ground!


During our Tuesday OAC meeting (which is now in the trailer on site), I witnessed the first signs of construction! I think the most important thing I got out of the meeting that I want to share is the most recent schedule. It is as follows:
  • Today, the digging will remove all of the top soil.
  • By the middle of next week (pending fair weather conditions), the basement will be dug up.
  • Following is a 3 week process will begin for the footers.
  • With all of the delays, we are currently only a week behind schedule because landscaping prep work was finished before permit was completed.
  • This projects a completion date of Sept. 17th, 2007*
*Note: With this date, the safest advice I would give anyone interested in living in the house would be to plan for the Spring Semester of '08.
