General Updates
Access:
Resident access will not be substantially affected until paving mid next week. Any interruptions will be minor.
Garbage Service:
As construction activities continue in your area, please be advised that garbage collection services will not be impacted. Residents should continue to place their garbage and recycling bins out on their regular collection days and in their usual locations, road paving will not affect garbage collection.
Temporary Mailboxes:
Due to construction in the area, temporary mailboxes will be installed to ensure uninterrupted mail delivery. These temporary mailboxes will be located at the south end of Bacardi Ave and will remain in use until work is complete and normal access is restored. If you have questions about mail delivery, please contact your local post office or the project representative listed on your notice.
Right-of-Way Obstruction Notice:
Property owners are responsible for any irrigation systems, invisible dog fences, or other unpermitted obstructions located within the public right-of-way (approximately 12–15 feet behind the edge of the gravel, within the boulevard area). To avoid potential damage or additional costs during construction. Please temporarily relocate your irrigation lines at least 4 feet behind the road before work begins in your area. After topsoil is placed, you may reinstall their irrigation systems prior to sod installation. Neither the City nor the Contractor is liable for damage to any unpermitted obstructions within the right-of-way. Please turn off any irrigation zones that are near the street until work is completed.
