New Guy on the Project Team My Name is Joe Novakoski and I’ll be taking over as Senior Project Manager throughout the remainder of the project. Many thanks go out to Brad Frey for all of his hard work over the past several months! I’m excited to be on this dedicated team and to be a part of this very exciting project. You will learn more about me in the team member spotlight in next month’s edition. For now, I’ll talk about what’s been happening over the past month. The Memory Care building has come out of the ground before our eyes! Most of the exterior and interior “load bearing” wood wall panels have been installed. The building pad now has stone so the workers are out of the mud. Also, all of the underground electrical and plumbing piping has been installed. The footings have been poured for the connector as well.
How are your new framers doing on tihs job?

In the Health Center renovation, Phase 2 is nearly complete! There were many hurdles on this phase, but the team came together, jumped over them and the area looks great! The Rehab addition is slowly progressing after being slowed by weather, existing utilities, and poor soils that had to be removed. The foundations are now complete and the underground plumbing has been installed. Best regards, Joe Novakoski, P.E. Vice President / Senior Project Manager joenova@elzinga-volkers.com
