Site planning and Takeoff: Week of 2/12

This week at Neglia I did a contract for a certain project in Rutherford. In order for a borough to authorize a project and a bid award, a contract must be drafted by the borough engineer and reviewed by the borough attorney. All bid prices, engineer responsibilities, contractor responsibilities and the time frame required to complete the project must be explicitly stated on the contract.

Moreover, I saw a site in North Arlington where there was a wire clearance issue between the light pole and the power lines. In order for the project to be continued, the minimum clearance has to be met. During that day my mentor and I talked with several construction workers and supervisors to try and resolve the issue and finish the project.
