Now that the final layer of asphalt surface has been paved, the most significant items remaining to complete are sod installation and asphalt driveway restoration.

The asphalt driveway restorations are being scheduled and should be completed in the near future.

We are still determining the best option for sod installation.  At this time, the contractor has indicated they would like to install the sod and perform heavy watering to ensure the sod lives and a healthy stand of grass is established. We are continuing to monitor the weather conditions and discuss the best option with the contractor. Once a final schedule is determined, we will be sure to pass the information along.

Hopefully you are happy with the improvements to your neighborhood and once the final items are completed, your lawns will be restored to looking the way they did prior to the work beginning.

The contractor has completed the final testing and work associated with the underground utility portions of the project. The contractor has started some minor grading of the areas disturbed during construction. The contractor will continue to perform grading of disturbed areas as well as installation and final grading of topsoil. The timing of the sod installation is still being determined. Due to the hot and dry weather the past few weeks, this is not the optimum time to install sod. Should the sod installation be delayed to a time with more favorable growing conditions, we will let you know when the sod installation is scheduled to occur.

Paving of the asphalt surface layer is scheduled for next week. Additional information will be provided when the schedule is finalized regarding travel cautions and restrictions during the paving operations and prior when the existing asphalt will have a thin layer of oil sprayed on it.

Thanks again for all your patience, understanding, and cooperation during the construction project.
