ALL THINGS ELECTRICAL
Building 88 passed structural inspection. Installation of two metal transfer boxes, as well as the repair of an acoustical ceiling in one unit, remains to be completed. Three potential buildings have been selected for rewiring in 2025; these will be presented to the Board at the March meeting.
Of the Village Green’s eight unique building types, three do not have space to place LADWP’s required meter enclosures on the buildings. The approved solution is to install those enclosures on a nearby structure, such as a garage, and connect them with underground cables. This design was approved by the Board last October.
However, in December, Hariton Engineering reported that LADWP will not issue permits for the remote meter enclosures until the Village Green pays an estimated four to six million dollars to bring 34.5-kilovolt power to the property. While this postpones the remote take-off work until a future date, it does not affect the plan to replace the original wiring in all buildings.
RESIDENTIAL PAINTING, INSULATION, GARAGE INSPECTIONS & RESTORATION
All 2024 work should be nearly complete at the time of printing. Management will begin evaluating residential buildings and garages for the 2025 paint cycle, with findings to be presented to the Board in February or March.
SB326 BALCONY INSPECTIONS
A potential new carpentry vendor will evaluate eleven balconies with Level 4 damage and provide a bid.
