I appreciate both Nancy and the HNTB guys in how they have communicated with the Viewtech guys. I think Victor and his team have been in an awkward spot but today was good. It appears that most items are resolved (or are being resolved) but a critical open item is whether the structural beam goes above or below the deck. My understanding from what I heard at the meeting was that it works structurally either way. Given that understanding, our vote is to keep it above the deck as currently designed. We feel that it is better visually and will take less time to complete the drawings. Victor says that he can produce the drawings to go to bid in 2-3 weeks. I know Nancy supports the idea of the beam below the deck. Either way, we need to get to a final resolution. Can we discuss at your earliest convenience to resolve? Please let me me know what our next steps should be. Thanks guys.
