<br />with Latour Construction, Inc. to discuss the potential schedule of this project. They have
<br />indicated they were planning to start in March depending on weather and proceed with storm
<br />sewer installation. Their major sub-contractor will be Hardrives, Inc. and they will follow the
<br />storm sewer installation moving in sometime after weight restrictions are removed.
