May Construction Update

Great things are happening at the new school site.

The work that Wondra Excavating completed during the winter has left an incredible building site.
The water and sewer utilities are in place and the electric and gas lines will be completed soon.
Storm water lines and ponds have also been placed and the storm water ponds are working as designed.
Construction on the first dome began this week. We will see the stem walls yet this month.

South Industries (the Dome constructor) worked with the architects over the winter to complete the building shell design.

Project Manager Jon South has been on site the past week and construction has begun. Randy South, one of the original patent holders on the dome construction is also on-site working on our project.
South Industries will use a mix of their current staff and local laborers. Local laborers interested in working on the project can contact South Industries. See related ad on this page for more information.

Design Phases have been completed.

We have awarded bids for the majority of the project. Through the bidding and the work with our architects/engineers, construction manager, and design-build partners, we have built quite an impressive team. Value engineering continues to ensure the best product for the most economical cost.
The design of the Hwy B modifications has been approved by the County Highway Commissioner. The building permit from the Village of Johnson Creek has also been approved.
We will continue to work with the Village on pedestrian and bike access to the site.
