Residents,
The date for general paving has been pushed back again. The contractor is having issues in Lemon Bay—another neighborhood that is also being paved. Currently, our general paving will begin late April or early May. When we receive a more definitive start date, we will send out another notice.
Vincent Avenue, Belize Court, and Mint Lane were required to be ground down to the roadbed prior to getting new pavement; so, subsequently, Belize and Mint were started in March.
Vincent Avenue is “on hold”. For those of you who may not be aware, the Charlotte County line runs down the middle of Vincent Avenue; therefore, half of the road is in Lee County. There is a meeting scheduled for April 15th at 2:00 p.m. at the Charlotte County Event Center, between the Charlotte County commissioners and Lee County commissioners. This meeting, which is open to the public, is to discuss Vincent Avenue since Lee County has been unwilling to fund their half of the roadwork.
Lastly, at the Annual Meeting in October while discussing the paving project, someone asked if it would help the pavement cure by watering down the road with a garden hose. The answer is “yes”—it will help the pavement cure faster.
