METRO. DISTRICT UPDATE – Jack Wasserbach

Ÿ  Doors on the pump houses need replacing.  David Shultz stated that he has some steel doors that he may be able to assist the District with and modify them to fit. They would need to include security locks as well.

Ÿ  Bridge deck repairs are completed.  There are now concrete approaches to the bridge that should cut down on the amount of wear & tear just before the bridge caused by acceleration prior to crossing.

Ÿ  The Water System Study RFP’s are being reviewed and it is premature at this time to decide on a firm when more criteria needed to be specified by the Board.

Ÿ  The District is developing a website for use by the HOA and the District for all pertinent information for anyone wanting to know about the Subdivision.  The cost will be share by both.  Marsha will put the website on the billings going out in October.
