Grade slip arrives

We've been waiting on a grade slip so we can apply for the BP on the Killarney duplex project.  That just arrived, so that means we can get started.  I have tried to book some crews, but it was hard without definite answers on schedule.  With this last piece of the puzzle I think we can make some progress.

This grade slip shows the excavator where to place the trench for the sewer hookup.  With a huge tree in the way, the city has allowed us to trench in a place that should work for everyone.  I can also use the slip to get some fees paid to the city for permitting the road cut for sewer and water hookup.  This slip features a storm connection, so that will cost me approximately $9000 vs using a sump pump to the surface.  I am still puzzled why the City requires this, but there is no way to avoid it.
