The email goes on to caution that Thursday's start date "is subject to our current schedule completion & weather." Regardless, the email also states that the "project is expected to last approximately 30 days which is subject to necessary number of repairs & of course weather." While a 30-day repaving project may seem long, the project has a large scope.

No Street Parking - between 7am and 5pm, Monday through Friday, ALL roads must be clear of any vehicles.
Temporary Road Closures - roads will need to be closed occasionally during operations. All residents are asked to please be patient and prepare accordingly.
