All:

I just wanted to keep you updated on the progress.

I have outlined the next few steps along the path.  I have placed text in bold and underlined below to bring these steps to your attention.

 

The 3 main things will be: 1) I need to receive the GP&S, 2) I will prepare and deliver the Homeowner Floodproof Package, and then 3) once we have the Government Estimate and the Contractors proposal, we can provide the offer to you and get the agreements signed.

 

Here are the next steps:

• Site Visit by Flood Proof (FP) Team, Designer, & Cost Engineer
• Feasibility Determination/FP Method Determination/Conversion Decision
• Preparation of Guide Plans and Specs (GP&S) by EC (I have not received this, at this time and will reach out to the Engineer)
• Homeowner Floodproof Package Prep (Upon receipt of GP&S)
• FP Team Delivers to Homeowner with additional copies for Contractor
• Request IGE (Government Estimate) from Cost Estimator & Await Proposal from Contractor
• Compare IGE to Proposal
• Official Offer made to Homeowner/Memo of Decision
• Floodproofing Agreement Request sent to OC
• OC drafts FPA and obtains homeowners signature
• RE Chief accepts the FPA

Other steps continue, but let’s get to this point first…

 

I will be in the neighborhood tomorrow for additional site visits, if you would like to touch base.

Below is my new cell phone number.

 

 

Respectfully,

Blue Bin Suspended

April 13, 2020

Ann Petersen, alderman at Large and former Ewingville resident  adds this information:

The recycler used by the city is not accepting anything during covid-19.  Just put everything all together in the main can.  If you have too much for the main can, put the extra in the Blue Bin.  It will now be emptied into the same truck.  Don’t put anything on the ground – no blue bags, cardboard, etc.  All the garbage is picked up by automation.

Neighbors,

The above link takes you to the Blue Bin Recycling in Franklin.  It has been temporarily suspended.  Go to the above link to see what you may do with items to recycle.

Blue Bins at the street are dumped into the trash pick up at  your home.

March 16, 2020  from the Franklin Web Page: 

Franklin— The City of Franklin is sad to announce our new Blue Bin Recycling program is temporarily suspended immediately until further notice.  The recycling processor, Marshall County Recycling has halted services due to the COVID-19, (Coronavirus).  We have reached out to other processors, but at this time there are no services available.

In the mean time, citizens can take their recyclables to the Williamson County Recycling Centers or throw their recycling in the trash. See the locations at http://www.williamsoncounty-tn.gov/1846/Convenience-Centers.
