>> Hi Cathy & Committee,
>>
>>
>>
>> I have spoken to the Engineers yesterday and received the attached update
>> today from their site inspection with the contractor, Preservation
>> Technologies, who have been on site 3 times in the last 3 weeks.
>>
>>
>>
>> While I understand your frustration as you would like the rooftop to be
>> completed prior to New Years Eve, the contractor was engaged on another job
>> that they had to complete and would not return to site until all variations
>> were approved, which occurred on 23rd October 2017.
>>
>>
>>
>> The contractors are due to recommence work on the planter boxes next week
>> and I have requested an updated schedule and requested to be advised when
>> the rooftop rectification would be fully completed.
>>
>>
>>
>> In the attached minutes there are some details and further request for
>> approval of additional items, detailed below –
>>
>>
>>
>>    - 1.2 – To approve a variation on the BBQ area services which are
>>    required to be redirected. The recommendation is for Option 1 @ $1,650.00 +
>>    GST. Please confirm approval for this variation?
>>
>>
>>
>>    - 1.3 – Waterproofing of the BBQ Area – As the only way to remove the
>>    BBQ area is by special resolution at a General Meeting, the Engineers have
>>    advised Option 1 is the recommended option, with a price TBA early next
>>    week, with the waterproofing to be fully warranted with this option.
>>
>>
>>
>>    - The plants in the planter box and those that have been removed are
>>    dying and need to be removed off site. Cathy has offered to organise
>>    removal or Preservation Technologies can do so at an additional price. Can
>>    you please advise how you would like to organise removal of the plants and
>>    if you are happy for the soil to be removed and if agreed stored in the
>>    garage area?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> To answer your question, Cathy about payments made to Preservation
>> Technologies, there has only been the initial payment of $53,668.10 Incl.
>> GST and no other payments have been made.
>>
>>
>> I will confirm the work schedule once received from the Engineers and I
>> look forward to your response on the above.
