DAY 198 Mon Oct 18th

Most of you have had little contact with the infrastructure contractor the past couple weeks; but, they have still been here. Their work has mostly consisted of the final stitching of putting the Village back together again.

Almost all areas have received Hydra-seeding. They are finishing a few other restoration projects but mostly just cleaning up signs and other miscellaneous stuff around the Village. There are a few punch list items that are still being remedied. But, we anticipate a skeleton crew showing up today but not staying around the Village too long this week.

For those of you who must drive through the Lakewood Blvd corridor, we are trying to get some prices from either of the two contractors in the Village to get those road segments repaired.

If you have not taken the time to look over the new pond area between the Village and the MBCC tennis courts, that project has progressed quite far as well. The pond is dug out completely and they have stopped pumping water out of it so it is slowly filling in with ground water and several springs that are feeding it. The pipe to the lake is still blocked so we are not getting water yet flowing from the lake to the pond.

The storm water pipe thru the MBCC driving range is installed. There are still a few more storm structures in various parts of the project, and, the connection near the maintenance shop that need to be installed. Another week or two on this project and they should be wrapping up as well!!!

As a reminder, once construction is done, I will start using the BLOG for ongoing Village News, so stay tuned to this communication method for ongoing information!!

Day 184 Monday Oct 4th

For the Street and Infrastructure Construction, restoration will continue this week. There was alot of Hydra-seed put down last week and more will occur this week; we are still hoping that they may be completely finished this week, but that may depend on the weather.

For our friends on Farwell who have been getting mail pick up at the gang boxes at Lakewood, very soon your delivery back to your homes should resume. We will provide you a notice when you can expect that change.

In another area of the Village, digging began last Friday for the storm water retention pond at the MBCC. This pond will be located between the Village tennis courts and the tennis courts at the MBCC. A good start on Friday gives good hope that that the pond will be completed in just a few short weeks. The storm pipe construction from the MBCC Maintenance Shop, across the driving range, to the point where it will drain into the pond will also begin soon.

As construction ends, please stay tuned via this Blog for other Village news. My intent is to move completely toward the Blog for the source of communication.
