Dragon Fans!
This summer the district is having quite a bit of parking lot and back drive work done now that the new construction projects are completed. I talked with the contractor today. Please note the following.
*This Wednesday - Friday, July 17th-19th, the contractor will be onsite doing all of the asphalt milling in the main lot, followed by milling the back drive area.
*The main lot will be completely closed this Wednesday, July 17th. The contractor is hopeful to complete the main lot milling in one day.
*Entry and exit to the district can be done using the west access road. Please do so cautiously during this time.
*Parking for staff, students attending weights, and Athena must all be on the west side of the building. You are welcome to park in the new gravel lot on the west side of our exit road (south of the new greenhouse).
*The contractor thought that the main lot should be opened back up on Thursday. Please note that until repaiving happens there will be no parking stripes. You are welcome to begin parking in the main lot again once they are finished milling. But, the back drive area will remain closed through the end of this week.
*Once the contractor has finished milling the main lot, they will move to milling the back drive area. Again, please consider the back drive area closed down through the end of this week.
*Following the milling of all necessary areas, the main lot and back drive will be fully open until the subcontractor then comes onsite to do the drainage and concrete work in the back. Once this part of the project begins, the back drive will then be closed down again. I learned that this part of the project may still be a week or two away.
I will do my best to keep everyone posted as we move through this project.
Thanks, Jay
