through June. Advance notice of any new closures will be posted prior to any

Section 4: Juan Solomon Park
lift station and Coffin Golf Course flow transition building
Tentative Schedule: Ongoing through October 2011
FA Wilhelm Construction Company has mobilized on site at Juan Solomon Park
and completed signage posting. The contractor continues to set up field office
trailers; deliver pipe, gravel, materials and equipment; excavate and install
the 18” storm drain pipe from the rain garden along Grandview Avenue.
On or after June 14, parking at Juan Solomon Park may be restricted as the
contractor installs temporary dewatering wells used to lower the groundwater
level. On or after June 21, the park will be closed for approximately seven days
to install a 48-inch storm pipe. Signage will be posted prior to these
restrictions and closures.
No work has been performed yet at Coffin Golf Course, as this phase of work
is scheduled to begin on or after October 1. However, the contractor intends to
begin tree removal at this location in the coming weeks.
