We’ve had a lot happening over the last little while. Sorry that there hasn’t been as much activity here. The site has now been back filled and the steel has been erected. We’re just waiting on a little adjustment to the steel that will allow for a much larger entrance to our new/old meeting hall. The framing has also begun in some areas.
Keep an eye out for the next update around August 17th or so. After that they should be much more regular again. Thanks for following along with the progress.

It sure looks like a construction site now. The wonderful orange security fencing has been installed.
All the cedar siding has now been removed as well.
Lastly, here’s a shot of the basement entrance roof being unattached.
It’s been encouraging to have an active construction site. The excavation will begin shortly.

Today at the church there were some trees removed, and the shed was relocated. This was done to prepare the site for the upcoming excavation. The last of the lumber was also delivered today.
Site work today. The shed will end up along the Domano side of the church
Next up for the site will be setting up the security fencing. Once that nice orange fence is up the real work will begin.

We’ve had some work completed at the church while we wait to excavate. The natural gas connection has been removed and capped. Once we have a new wall to attach it to, we’ll turn the gas back on.
Our missing gas metre
Also, there was more lumber delivered to the site. The last of the lumber should arrive in the next few days.
Tomorrow we expect to remove a few dead trees, move the tool shed, and remove some underground wiring in preparation for excavation.
Stay tuned.

We had equipment working at the expansion site today. Two test holes were dug so that engineers can confirm the ability of the soil to support the new structure. We’ve been told to expect the results of the test by the end of next week.
While we wait we are in the process of having the gas meter moved, moving the storage shed, and hopefully some excavation. Once the test results are back the forms for the footings can be built.

This site has been successfully moved to a new host and upgraded to the latest Wordpress.
The Building Progress Committee is also excited to be meeting again soon. We’ll begin the planning of the construction timeline as well as updating our budget. We hope to have a lot of new information ready to go for the AGM meeting in February.
