Update on Great Northern Detention Pond Project

Here is a project update from Darryl Haba, project manager of the detention pond project:

To date we are approximately 50% complete with the project. We have completed the new maintenance road and associated retaining walls. We are about 50% complete with the new spillway using the stamp pattern selected by the Neighborhood. The retaining walls completed also have the patterns selected by the Neighborhood.

We will continue working at the spillway which will take another two to three weeks. The new sidewalk is also being constructed and the seating area we presented to the Neighborhood will be constructed off this new sidewalk.

We are on schedule to complete this project within it’s timeframe and enjoy the area residents walking by watching us construct the spillway.
