SILVER
Three Tri-City-based companies dug up silver hardware last week for their handiwork. The Vancouver Regional Construction Association singled out PML Professional Mechanical for its work on the Fort St. James Hospital, Whitewater Concrete for its IKEA Richmond relocation project and M&L Painting for its Hotel Georgia renovations at the swanky Vancouver establishment. From the list of silver winners, the association will announce in October who will win the gold prizes at a gala dinner."The silver award winners are true leaders in the industry," said association president Keith Sashaw, in a news release."They all represent companies that were able to bring projects of the highest calibre in on time and on budget."
