Construction Notes by Richard L. Carlisle
Development Manager, First Interstate Development Company

Since our last update, we have continued to have favorable conditions for the installation of sanitary and storm sewers and the commencement of distribution of water lines. Although it is difficult to make out our progress on the attached aerial photograph due to the snow, the following work is in progress:

• Approximately 70% of the main sanitary trunk sewer line, as well as numerous major laterals, have been installed.

• Approximately 75% of the major storm sewer work has been completed. This will allow us to control the spring rains more effectively and recommence with mass excavation as early as practical during the spring.

• Water lines have been commenced on the east side of the site and are progressing toward the Target building area and south along Middleton Road.

• We have met once again with the electric utility for the project and all engineering has been completed and work will commence on the primary electric service during the month of March.

• The fence between Avon Commons and the residential neighbors along the western property line has been completed and work has commenced on the fence bordering the southern property line.
