Due to the nature of construction, there will be times during the day when you may not be able to access your driveway due to utility work, street paving, or other work. Following concrete curb or driveway repair work, access may be unavailable for up to 7 days while the concrete cures. Residents will be provided as much notice as possible when these situations occur. We encourage you to sign up for construction updates so you are aware of construction activity that may affect you.
During construction, we ask that all residents refrain from parking on the street. There are certain construction activities, i.e. curb replacement, where you may be required to park on the street. We will notify you prior to curb placement and let you know where you can park.
The City will coordinate with the Post Office, delivery services, and garbage service during periods of limited access.
During construction, the contractor will set up a temporary mail box location. Mail boxes will be reinstalled at the completion of the project. If preferred, residents can rent a PO box or have their mail held at the post office.
The majority of the utility work will occur while school is not in session. Street work will occur in late summer/early fall, and the City will coordinate with the bus company to determine if an alternate pick-up location is required during construction. If a new location is required, the affected residents will be notified.
Areas where grass is disturbed the contractor will place seed and spray hydro mulch to reestablish turf. Once the seed and hydro mulch is placed it will take up to 2 weeks for the seed to germinate and 4-7 weeks for grass to grow depending on weather and moisture.
Due to the depth of construction, there can be significant impacts to
the right of way in front of your home. We ask that you locate sprinkler heads, sprinkler lines, and pet fences.
Water and sewer services will be replaced. Temporary water lines and sewer lines will be installed during construction. Water service may be shut off for a temporary period of time, residents will receive a 24 hour notice prior to any planned shut off occurring. During connection of the new services, the contractor may need access to your home to locate the service connection.
