UPDATE (2:30 PM, Oct 3rd):
The last of the seal coating was applied at 1:00 PM this afternoon. The work was completed early enough that any rain later this afternoon or evening will not negatively affect the coating. The contractor advised us to keep the roadways closed to traffic until 1:00 PM Friday afternoon. This will give the coating enough time to bond to the asphalt surface and resist marking from tires.
---------------------------------------------------
DCAM, INC. has scheduled the
remaining asphalt seal coating work for tomorrow, Thursday, Oct. 3rd
beginning at 8:00 AM (weather permitting).
They will be applying seal coat material to the private access drives in
front of 6915-7355 North Central Park (Units 1-22), the Walter Ct. stub street
and also in the roadway in front of 6958-6980 Lexington South (Units
166-167).
Do not walk on the fresh seal
coat unless you first check and confirm that it is dry to the touch, which
depending on the weather might take several hours after it is applied.
Parking and vehicular traffic
will not be allowed on these affected roadways beginning at 8:00 AM Oct 3rd and ending at 8:00 AM Oct. 4th (or earlier, depending on temperature
and humidity levels). Please do not
remove or drive around any “CAUTION” tape.
Residents at the addresses listed above must park their vehicle(s)
out on either North Central Park, East
Broadway or on Lexington South (west of 6936 Lexington South) prior to 8:00 AM
on Oct. 3rd or risk the possibility that they will be towed or trapped
in their garage or driveway for most of the day and evening.
No parking is allowed on West
Broadway between North Central Park and
Lexington South at any time.
Seal coating cannot be
applied if there is a risk of rain prior to the estimated time that the seal
coating would be fully dried to the touch.
Rain will cause the fresh coating to wash off and congeal into messy
clumps that not only would have to be removed but which could also get into the
storm water system and into our retention ponds.
Therefore, if there is a
threat of rain for Thursday, this work will be postponed and rescheduled for
Wednesday, Oct. 9th. If necessary, an
e-mail blast will be sent out to those on my Manors e-mail distribution list prior
to 8:00 AM Thursday morning, announcing the postponement; the announcement will
also be posted here on the Manors Blog. If there is a chance of rain on Oct. 9th, the same postponement notification
procedure will be repeated.
If you wish to be added to my Manors e-mail
distribution list, please send your request (including your name and street
address) to my e-mail address shown in the right side of this blog.
