Saturday, the Port Authority succesfully completed the removal of a 160-feet tall former water tower. The tower sat next to our new $5.7 million building, adjacent to the fire pumps that serve our campus' fire suppression system, and over top a high pressure gas main. It became unnecessary when, a couple of years ago, the City of Heath was successfully persuaded to build a more capable tower nearby.
Thanks to a change in state law, we didn't have to just select the low bidder. We owe a thank you to the Ohio General Assembly and Governor Kasich for that!
The contractor selected from our selection process was Iseler Demolition. Their reputation was superb for deliverying on-time and per-contract. They, along with two others, were invited to bid on the project under a qualified contractor process.
Iseler's crew started at 5 a.m. They were done and gone before 5 p.m. All in one day.
Amazing.
It was ahead of schedule and under budget also. Triply amazing.
