Discussion:
Mr. Bocox, ZFI Engineer, presented the findings and a bid from Uretek to address the settling issues at the pool. Uretek specializes in foundation stabilization repair. Mr. Bocox recommended that the tree and concrete on the east side of the pool be removed before work by Uretek begins. In addition, it was determined that the wall leading into the storage room will need to be braced or repaired after work is completed. ZFI Engineering also looked at the settlement issue at Harrah Middle School. They found movement but the structure has not been compromised, it looks more aesthetic. |
