RE: Loft racks

Thank you Lt. Mathews and to all involved.  Also want to thank the rest of everyone who has been assisting with the numerous projects associated with trying to complete the entire project and for helping with the various other items such as moving Tara back to the PSB; moving things out the way to facilitate the removal of the dispatch trailer; unloading the storage box for removal yesterday, and on, and on, and on.

 

There are a few more tasks facing us in the next week or so that we will need to complete.  The overhead door panels are going to have to be moved to Station 25A (Public Works has offered a flatbed truck);  there are a number of boxes of ceiling tiles in the room outside the lobby that we need to deal with.  6 boxes will go up in the FD loft and the rest will need to go to Station 25A; the new chairs for the training and conference room arrived yesterday.  We’ll need to unpack and move those into the respective rooms within the next week.  Those with casters go to the conference room, while those without go to the training room; finally there is getting to be quite a pile of used crap in the bay that needs to be dealt with.  The old furniture will need to be taken to the yacht club for some kind of City sale and we’ll need to figure out what to do with all of the lumber from the ramp from the dispatch trailer.

 

I don’t think that any one shift should be responsible for everything.  Since my start here, I have been trying to share the load between you all, as well as making myself available to assist in any way I can.  I do not want these projects to interfere in any way with your normal daily chores and most definitely don’t expect them to interfere with a response.  You have all been working very hard for a number of months throughout the re-model/renovation period and that has been very much appreciated.  We are getting close to the end……I think.  If each shift can take a bit of time to work towards completing the above mentioned items and we share the load over the next week or so, we’ll get things completed.  I will continue to make myself available to assist throughout the completion of the project.

 

I have a meeting to attend this morning at the USCG Air Station from 0830 to approximately noon in preparation of a large exercise they have planned in April of this year.  DC Gascoigne has an MFSA meeting to attend in Longview that will have him out of the building after mid-morning.  I’ll touch bases with Lt. Corbit after lunch time and assist his crew with beginning work on unpacking and moving the many boxes of chairs from the truck bay.

 

Thank you all for your continued support and for your incredible patience throughout the entire project.

The loft racks and the east wall (old bay 4) rack have all been secured for the seismic upgrade and ready to use.
