Thursday morning a sinkhole was discovered forming in Lot A near the west turn around area north of the Science Building. The turn around will be blocked off until repairs can be make. We appreciate patience. The excavation off Circle Drive below Lot B is the beginning of campus water retention areas. By retaining storm water on campus and releasing it slowly, erosion on the bluffs is reduced as well as flooding in the areas below campus.
Permanent repairs are in the planning stages due to the age of the existing hot water heater.
As progress is made, additional information will be posted. May. Lead times on replacement tanks have delayed start-up. Buildings affected in Phase III are Lovejoy Library, Science Building, Communication Building, and University Center. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, June 11, 1998. Location to be announced at a later date.
