1) When will the partial closure at Hampton be installed?
The chicane will be installed spring of 2018, per the contractor's tentative schedule.
2) Are you still holding the "amenities" funds of $66,896.30 ?
The contractor has been asked to wait on ordering amenities until November 2017, to allow time to have discussions and a final decision on this issue.
3) When will the landscaping on the basin begin?
Landscaping submittals are still being reviewed and work will not start until all submittals are reviewed & approved.
Will it have to wait until all construction, on both sides is completed or will it begin as soon as basin is ready?
Landscaping submittals are still being reviewed and work will not start until all submittals are reviewed & approved.
4) Before Markham leaves for good will the weeds on the parcels from Park to Santa Rita be removed?
The City of Tucson will maintain remnant parcels until Phase II construction is completed.
5) Is the new asphalt currently in place on the south side the final surface?
No.
i.e. will they be making another final layer?
Yes, near the end of the project. We will place the second lift on the entire project at once to improve the final product and enhance a smoother ride.
Will that layer be the "noise reduction" layer?
Yes.
6) What will be the process for allowing volunteers to plant the parcels from Park to Santa Rita. Would we need any formal agreement for volunteers to be on City property?
A formal agreement will need to be in place. Remnant parcels remaining will be maintained by the City through the end of the Phase II portion of the construction project. Remnant parcels cannot have landscape installed prior to determining their final disposition.
7) The (about) 2" pipe currently sticking up on parcels from Park to Santa Rita ...we think is irrigation for the 15' buffer. True?
Yes, for the new landscaping that is going between right of way and back of sidewalk.
8)
Have you got an estimated end date for Phase 2?
Project completion tentatively set for July 2018
