Here are the updates for the upcoming week!

• Crews will be finishing up sod today and will work part of Saturday, 8/16, if needed.
• Disturbed landscaping items will be taken care of late in the week or the following.
• Most of the irrigation systems have been repaired. If anything needs to be revisited, please let us know asap.
• Remaining concrete work/repairs and asphalt patching repairs will occur all week.
• NOTE: Wear Course Paving is expected to be completed the week of 8/25.We will notify you when a specific day is set. Paving notes to prepare for:
  • No Street Parking allowed, please keep vehicles in driveways or parked on another street off-site. Everyone should have access in and out of driveways and throughout the site during paving, but delays should be expected if the operation is in front of your house and you need to enter or leave your driveway. You may need to wait until the paver and roller has passed through (15 to 30 minutes for cool down). Please be mindful that there will also be a tack coat placed prior to the paver making a pass. Be cautious of the tack coat as it is very sticky and shouldn't be driven on. The tack coat takes about 30 minutes to setup.
• No street Parking
• Residents can use parks or other streets outside of the project for parking if needing to leave during the day.

Thank you.

This week, crews will be all about on-site restoration for disturbed areas due to construction activities.

• Restoration will be taking place behind the backs of curb, the sides of driveways, sidewalks and trails. Crews will be placing topsoil first and following through with placing rolls of sod.
• Irrigation systems: Crews will be repairing irrigation systems this week during restoration. If it was discussed to have your own irrigation contractors complete work, please coordinate with your contractor to fix these systems as soon as possible.
• If any of your landscaping was disturbed during construction, such as, mulch beds, rock, plants, etc., please let us know at this time so we can have them be replaced with match-like materials.

Questions: Contact Kale at 612-292-2221 with any questions or concerns about the project.

Construction work will be minimal this week. Restoration work is anticipated to begin the week of August 11.

We have just been notified that the Contractor may be doing driveways as early as tomorrow. If they are not able to do it Tuesday, it will be Thursday.

Unfortunately, there has been some delays due to the rain. Weather permitting, crews are planning to finish driveways on Thursday, July 31.

Questions: Contact Kale at 612-292-2221 with any questions or concerns about the project.

Thank you for your patience!

• Notices were sent out on Monday regarding reinstalling your mailboxes. Crews will be working on reinstalling all permanent mailboxes and removing the temporary mailboxes. Once all mailboxes are back up, mail will resume as normal. Our crews will notify you if they have any issues with your installation.
• Crews will be on-site though out the project to pave full length driveways.

July 21 - 25

• Crews will be removing marked driveway ends though out the project and will work on paving them until finished.

Access During Driveway Paving: If the paving equipment is working directly in front of your home, you may need to wait 15 - 30 minutes for the asphalt to cool down before driving over it.

If you have any questions, contact Kale at 952-252-2221.

Unfortunately, paving had to be postponed today due to the rain. Paving should resume on Friday and will include Alabama Avenue, Xenwood Avenue, 137th Street E, Yosemite Avenue and 147th Street. We anticipate paving to be completed by the end of the day on Friday.

Access During Paving: You'll still be able to get in and out of your driveway throughout the paving process. However, if the paving equipment is working directly in front of your home, you may need to wait 15 - 30 minutes for the asphalt to cool down before driving over it. Our crew will help coordinate your access and get you in and out as quickly as possible.

Safety Reminders: Please drive carefully through the construction area. You may need to navigate around equipment, and conditions can change throughout the day.

Questions: Contact Kale at 612-292-2221 with any questions or concerns about the project.
