The library staff has been working under the premise that we can bribe the construction crew into speeding things along by feeding them. Each week, we send cookies or some other tasty treat with our manager when she goes to the weekly construction team meeting. Last week we decided to spice things up a bit and go "hog" wild - literally! We cooked up a huge batch of pulled pork, sloppy joes and assorted side dishes and desserts. The staff joined the construction crew for lunch on Friday and got to chat with the people who are building your library. After lunch, library staff donned hard hats and had a tour of what is happening on site. T
his was extremely fun for us and hopefully this will keep the fantastic crew going at their continued great pace for a little longer!This week, they have been busy roofing the high areas, then they will move on to the lower areas and after that, onto the new area. Inside, the low voltage has been roughed in and outside, you may have noticed bulldozers and dump trucks clearing off the old asphalt and some of the landscaping that will be replaced with a brand new parking lot and low maintenance, low water landscaping.
Other work happening this week inludes: stairs, handrails and other steel, framing for the monitors, the store front glass has been ordered, and when I came back to work last night, I was so excited to see the crane lifting the pre-cast panels into place on the Swift side of the building.
