From Steve Jones:
Shannon Burke reports that we issued a temporary certificate of occupancy this week to allow employees of the new Regional Medical Center to prepare for a mid April opening date.
The Library reported that they had a short delay in the review of the construction contract, but they intend to execute the contract by March 21. The work schedule is for 245 calendar days (not including weather delays) which takes it to about the first week in December for completion.
The police department reports that officers responded to a burglary of a vehicle in progress at the 2300 block of Lohmans Spur this week. A juvenile suspect attempted to evade officers, but he was caught and arrested.
Paul Duncan reports that the HEB wastewater line along Serene Hills is complete. The next step is a force main installation along Flint Rock Road from Tonkawa Trail West to the WCID 17 treatment plant off Flintrock Trace. They plan to start that project within the next couple of weeks. This work will require lane closures on Flint Rock Road and traffic delays.
