All items on the "punch list' have been completed by the contractor except for one piece of warped wood on the roof of playground equipment. The contractor notified the playground equipment manufacturer but delay was encountered in the delivery of the piece of wood that resulted in the delay of filing the Notice of Completion/Final Acceptance for this project.
