• Limiting major water use is required to avoid a sewer backup.
• Avoid running your washing machine or dishwasher during this work or you risk your sewer backing up.
• Pungent odors from the lining process are common.
• To prevent odors in your home, pour a gallon of water into floor drains and any infrequently used sinks.
• Check your front door daily for details and notice of this work occurring on your street.
• The notice will include information on the process, and approximate length of time your water usage should be minimized.

Please set out your garbage and recycling containers before 6 AM. We have encouraged haulers to arrive early to avoid conflicts with the contractor and their operations.

The final layer of asphalt will be paved on October 18 starting at 7 AM, weather permitting, on

• Ashcroft Ln
• Concord Ave
• Millers Ln
• Rose Ct and
• W. 63rd and 64th St

Parking Restrictions:

• No parking on the street: Please do not park any vehicles on the street until the roadway has been completely paved. You risk your vehicle being towed.
• Parking alternative: Parking in your garage or driveway is acceptable. Otherwise, park any vehicles you will need on October 18 on
  • St. Johns Ave
  • Garrison Ln
  • W 62^nd St
  • Virginia Ave
• The entire roadway must remain clear for crews to sweep, prepare, and pave the surface.

Important Notes:

1. Asphalt Bonding Application:
   Before paving, crews will apply a sticky liquid on top of the existing pavement before laying down the final asphalt layer. It’s a thin, black coating that acts like glue, helping the new asphalt stick better to the old surface.
   • Sticky surface: Because it's sticky, if you drive through it before the new asphalt is laid, it can get on your car tires and leave permanent marks on your vehicle and driveway. If you need to get out of your driveway before the asphalt is paved, you may do so, but please go slow so it will not track onto your vehicle. The City will not be responsible for removing this.
   • Prevent driveway access: If you wish to deter others from using your driveway as a turnaround, place your garbage cans at the bottom of your driveway for the day.
2. Contractors/Personal Services:
   Please inform any contractors or personal services (e.g., cleaners, landscapers) about this schedule so they can plan accordingly.

After Paving:

• Rolling and Compaction: Once the new asphalt is placed, large rollers will compact the surface. If you must drive on the freshly paved street, please do so slowly and avoid sharp turns to prevent damage to the new pavement.
• Vehicle Return: Once the paving and rolling are complete, you may return your vehicles to your driveway.
