Up until this point a majority of the work done has been the
footwork to start the transformation of the current foundation into a usable
outdoor space. In the fall of 2015 proposals were gathered from local
engineering firms for both the assessment of the foundation – to see if it
could be used in some capacity- and to develop construction plans to transform
it from its current state into a covered, functional area.
At the end of November 2015 the proposal that best fit our
needs and price range was chosen by the Robson PAC. The proposal then went to
be revived and accepted by three different stakeholder groups – School District
Maintenance, RCS Teachers, and RCS Society. All parties were happy with us
accepting the proposal and moving forward with the project, so in early
December a contract was signed for the assessment of the foundation.
On January 8th, 2016 a quick visual inspection of
the foundation took place. On January 18th two holes were dug to
check the depths of the footings and dimension measurements were taken. The
engineer is going to use this information to determine our best options moving forward.
Following his report, due January 29th, a concept meeting will take
place were the interested parties will discuss the future structures possibly
uses, and identify the desirable features based off these uses.
This should help us roll right along into our second
contract with the engineer, construction plan development!
