Day 106 (Mon 7/19) & Day 107 (Tue 7/20)

Landscaping work continues in the lower bluff with the primary work taking place on Woodland Circle. The 400 block of Kensington was completed last Friday. The work consists of adding top soil to get the grade back to where it is supposed to be. There is then a process of Hydra-Seeding used which shoots the seed, fertilizer etc into the seeded areas.

In the Upper Bluff, we now have another pipe crew on our work site and this crew has started with water main from Butternut heading up the hill toward Summit. At mid day today, they were about halfway through that block.

The other pipe crew installed the temporary water service line and now today, they have completed a tie in on Magdeline at Butternut and they will start working their way back toward McBride. This installation will be a bit more difficult as the location of the new main crosses the existing main in several locations. This is why they had to install the temporary water delivery system to 6 residences along this corridor.

We have noted that people who have their homes inaccessible are parking on Butternut. Unfortunately, that street is too narrow to allow parking on both sides of the street, so we will be placing temporary 'no parking signs' on the side of Butternut where there is already ...."No Parking"!!!!

Speed-speed-speed--continues to be a problem. This is in the newly constructed area of the lower bluff, but, also in the construction zones of the upper bluff and especially where MG&E crews are working on Farwell. As another reminder, please watch your speed and if you have teenagers, be sure to remind them as well---that is the age group that we seem to be having the most reports about. Thanks.
