Happy Thursday City of DuPont!

The team will start making concrete cuts on Bob's Hollow between that small stretch of Palisade BLVD and Hammond Ave on end of THIS week.

Yes, you read that right!!! We are finally entering the last big chunk of the remaining area of Palisade Village that includes; Hammond Ave, Aldrich Pl, Harrington Ave, Harrington Pl, and last of Kincaid St. Once this is done they'll work on McNeil St in front of Trax Apartments before entering Yehle Park Village.

Before we get too excited of entering a new area. Next week we will have a concrete pour to complete Forrest St/Forrest Pl and this will conclude the work in this particular area.

Next week the sidewalk team, with the help of a contractor, will be removing 5 trees between McDonald Ave and Anderson Ave. During the sidewalk's repair work it was decided that these trees have stability issues and/or have created damage to the roadway. Assessments like these are only determined when the sidewalk team are on site for their repair work and is an isolated situation. The trees circled in photo will be the ones removed. Notices will be posted on these trees for removal. At this time there hasn't been discussion for replanting. If it's decided to do so, residents will be notified.

Good Morning City of DuPont! Today we will be putting in utility locates throughout the city in planting strips that have a dead tree or a stump. We plan to remove those and replant where we can. For the locates and new tree placement you'll see white spray paint marked up near the area of work. We have over 30 locations.
