Site Preparation Update


Site preparation work for our project has begun. A topographical survey for the site has been completed and drilling for the geotechnical report and environmental assessment is nearing completion.

The geotechnical investigation will provide information on the physical properties of the soil around the site and the environmental assessment will include underground water testing.

The geotechnical and environmental assessments are conducted as a standard component for any substantial construction project.

City of Kitchener Parks staff will be conducting an assessment of the trees on the Library and Parking Garage site. This information will be used by the Landscape Architect to develop a tree management plan for our project
