Movin’ day

Movers empty Trailer 839, one of sixteen remaining trailers being removed to make room for dome homes at North Point. Construction is expected to begin Oct. 1 with completion of the project by June. Trailer resident Gary Metzger, systems operation and maintenance manager for instrumentation is among those headed for new quarters. According to Jim Wiggins, KRS engineering and planning manager, the new homes, which will be built by Domes International, Inc., will start at the east end of North Point and work westerly. Under the current contract for seven units, five will be 1200-square-foot two- bedroom homes and two will be 1350-square- foot three-bedroom homes. A total of sixteen homes are planned. “We received special congressional funding to build dome homes, which helps us in our efforts in replacing our current deteriorating housing assets for both unaccompanied personnel housing and unaccompanied personnel,” said Kelly Busquets, USAKA Directorate of Public Works. “The near-term goal is to move all families out of trailers. The long-term goal is to eventually replace all trailers, not necessarily with domes, but with some type of more adequate housing,” Busquets added. Metzger said what he’ll miss most about North Point is, “the quiet and the view.”
