ZzzZzz......

Nothing has changed since our first post on 3.6.13.  For some reason the forms don't match the finished floor elevation on the plans.  Apparently the City inspector is not accepting any of the builder's explanations/solutions for the discrepancy.  Foundation guy and architect are meeting today to come up with another solution to take to the City.  At this rate, the foundation won't be poured until mid-April or later!

Still waiting...

Got an update from the builder on March 12th.  The City has an issue with the finished floor elevation.  Not sure exactly what the problem is, but the surveyor and architect are working through it.  Once they're cleared, copper, groundwire, and cables can be placed and they "should pour next week."  Seems unlikely cause Mark passed by the site on the 15th and there was still no progress...

Puppy site inspection


Stopping by the site after the Mueller Farmers' Market.  Read more for additional photos of formwork and utilities.

Foundation forms are up!



According to Mike, pouring early next week would be "very optimistic."  Not ready for a pre-pour inspection yet, but should be ready for inspection by the end of next week.
