Is It Too Much To Ask....
Can we get an update a tad more specific than "mid to late August" for the reopening of the pier? I know that this is a difficult task for those in government unaccustomed to meeting a deadline or Heaven forbid a payroll, but gathering information from the contractor and compiling a few paragraphs is not rocket science. A conversation between the contract administrator and the contractor would do the trick, especially if the administrator took the time to inspect the work periodically.
Hopefully, no damage has befallen the pier during the current storms, and this missive will soon be irrelevant.
Please stay safe.
