Association president Bill Black says municipal water restrictions have disrupted concrete pouring schedules
An advocacy group for Calgary 's construction industry says it is hopeful water restrictions that are returning to the city at the end of the month will not cause more major disruptions as the construction season nears its end. Calgary builders say they’re glad the city has given them advance notice of a renewed water shutdown to help them cope with what has been a summer of setbacks that have cost millions of dollars.
The Calgary Construction Association says it’s working with the city on ways to mitigate the impact of new water restrictions, which are set to begin in less than three weeks, on Aug. 26. while municipal fire bans have played havoc with welding schedules, leading to the lost revenue. Residents in Calgary and surrounding communities were just moving on from an initial round of voluntary and mandatory water restrictions when a new ban was announced this week.Mayor Jyoti Gondek says further tests on the pipe indicate there are more trouble spots that need to be fixed over September, leading to the return of restrictions.
