F&S Construction and Maintenance Announcements


July Campus-Wide Inspections

We want to make you aware of campus-wide inspections that will be conducted over the next two weeks. 

  • Week of July 15 - fire extinguishers will be inspected and serviced as needed
  • Week of July 22 - fire sprinklers will be inspected. The inspection process will not activate alarms or strobe lights. 

We will send an update if there are any changes to the schedules.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure the safety and functionality of our campus facilities.

Colonnade Restoration

In the coming months, restoration will occur on the Colonnade and surrounding stone fixtures. Restoration efforts will involve replacing broken pieces where possible and patching and filling cracks and crevices. Otto Baum, the contractor that worked on the original construction, will collaborate with F&S on the restoration.

The work will be completed in multiple phases and will be dependent upon the weather. Work is tentatively scheduled to begin in August and completed by mid-October.

Work areas will be clearly marked so please use caution when walking in the area.

Repairs to PAC West Teardrop Steps

Beginning the week of July 22, F&S will be repairing the concrete steps on the west side of the PAC teardrop entrance.  The repairs will include filling cracks and crevices as well as replacing crumbling or broken sections.

Work will begin this week and is expected to be completed mid-to-late August.

The steps will be closed during the work. For your safety, barriers and signage will be placed around the work areas so please use caution when walking in the vicinity.
