The asphalt supplier temporarily shut down this morning, which has caused MR Tanner to stop work for the remainder of the day. This work will resume tomorrow morning, June 20 at 5:30 am. While this has an outsized impact on the four villages with access restrictions; the rest of the community can expect the incoming and outgoing traffic lane construction to be pushed back one day.

We apologize for the inconvenience and assure you that MR Tanner and the road crews are working diligently to complete the reconstruction of the roads in as timely a manner as possible.

See below for an updated schedule for this week and next, as well as some new FAQ's. Also below are some photos of the cart crossing repair, and some of the new asphalt installed this morning.

No - the paving contractor will water the road to allow it to set and residential traffic can resume immediately.

There may be some delay if you are trying to enter or exit when they are paving or immediately following.

The grading work is now mostly complete ahead of paving. This means that the road has been lowered to allow the full three inches of asphalt to be placed. As a result, the contoured ramp up to the concrete curbing, road crossings, etc., has been reduced or eliminated and will result in a more severe "bump" when driving over it.

Review the below links to view all prior communications on this project. We have also established a page on your community website with the most up-to-date information.

MR Tanner has the appropriate dust control permits and has successfully minimized dust and fine particulates when and where they are actively working.

The dust control did not originally extend to the open roads on days when work is not required or scheduled. However, due to the dust concerns and owner feedback, MR Tanner will increase dust control efforts tomorrow with additional water trucks on the main road.

If you do not live in Juniper, Sycamore, Cottonwood or Pinyon, your access will be impacted by active construction on various days, but there will be no full access restrictions.

Juniper Village will be most impacted. This is due to the work occurring on the roads directly in front of their homes.

Sycamore, Pinyon, and Cottonwood Villages will also be impacted as the only access to these villages is by taking Juniper Village or Sycamore Village Drives off of Superstition Mountain Drive.

All four Villages will have access restrictions on June 20 for approximately 24 hours.

Access to and from residential home sites is a high priority during this project. However, there are significant benefits to paving the full width of the road to avoid a "cold joint" down the center.

These new roads are significant assets and are expected to last for 25 - 30 years. The Board, Committee, and our consultants and experts want to do everything possible to provide maximum longevity.

All affected Villages will receive a separate email regarding the plan for access, parking, etc. during the 24 hours of paving, scheduled for June 19. The Board and Golf Club are working to provide parking, shuttle by golf cart, etc. to minimize this impact to our owners. The full details, timing, etc. will be communicated as soon as we have them available.

What can I do now to prepare? (For those in the affected areas)

If you know that vendors are scheduled for June 19, we ask that you start making schedule changes now. This includes especially any landscapers, pool vendors, etc. that typically arrive with trucks, trailer and equipment and may blow dust and debris, turn on irrigation or drain a pool. Aside from the access restrictions, the above elements can be detrimental to the new road surface.

Active construction will be affected identically to the homeowners, except that shuttling workers and or equipment will not be possible. We ask that affected homesites in Juniper and Cottonwood Villages halt construction for one day on June 19.
