Week of 7/22

• Today (7/25) and tomorrow (7/26) crews will continue restoration work and grading behind the curb to get ready for sod or seed. We ask that all residents double check their dog fences, irrigation, and other restoration issues they might have. Make sure to call Luke Connor, Project Representative, at 507-995-0465 with any questions.
• Next week (7/29), the contractor will be finishing restoration work and placing sod and seed. Again, we ask that residents help water the sod and seed if it looks dry. The contractor will be watering these areas but it is immensely helpful if residents help keep these areas watered. Don’t mow the sod areas until 3-4 weeks after the sod is placed.
• The final layer of pavement will be placed after all restoration work has been completed.
