Saunders is responsible for installing a full electrical and gas infrastructure backbone to feed the current project and future cottages planned on the hillside, as well as, a full waterline loop with back up fire protection. The project also involves the development of 3rd Street expanding the neighborhood west.
Saunders is tasked with installing a storm infrastructure that will help protect the historic neighboring homes. A challenge they face is a steep hillside that is tight to the foothills. Not only does it create site logistic constraints but they had to make sure silt from the site would not travel down the steep slope.
There are multiple structures onsite deemed historic. Saunders is ensuring they remain protected throughout the duration of the project.
