Nov 24, 2014

Recently, the Italian Fountain underwent some repairs as part of a phased improvement plan.

Repairs included moving the access point workers used for pump and electrical maintenance. The old access point was a small cubby that went under the fountain. It was so small that it was extremely difficult for any adult to get into.

The pumps were relocated to create easier and safer access for workers, a new electrical box was installed with updated wiring and leaks in the main tank were repaired.

As well, the curved wall at the bottom of the water spillway had structural repairs done and a new specialty finish applied to the inside face.
