On Friday, March 18th, James Conner and I met with our engineer and multiple JEA Depts on site where we plan to tap into the current sewer. We had JEA locators for sewer, gas, and electric all there to perform the markouts and gain agreement on a sound plan of attack. Now that we understand where underground utilities lie, we're able to move forward with creating an accurate scope and estimate for the project.
