Week of 3.30.26

Construction

  • ComEd came out and said that a new request needed to be put in to remove the buried supply line.

  • The electrician did not expect to have to submit for this request and did not do so, Ziggy, once notified on 3/31, submitted the request, including a copy of the survey.

  • The excavation and concrete contractor was on site to make small progress but needs to wait until the electrical is inert to make progress on excavation.

  • The first draw was submitted - it includes payment to GC and reimbursement for initial deposit to client. The Escrow Agreement Document, which should have been sign at property closing, was not signed and needed signatures, which is slowing the payout process.

  • Ziggy is working closely with Cindy from Wintrust to complete the draw in the exact process that Wintrust needs it to ensure no delays or complications. Once this draw is complete, we anticipate the future draws to progress without issue.

Design/Finishes:

  • Sandy ordered samples to be delivered to clients’ house.
