Affected residences will receive door hanger notices at least two days in advance before the work actually takes place on their street. These notices contain more information about garbage pickup and parking.
Typically, parking will be restricted in cape seal areas for a 3 day period.
Things to Remember and Things to Do
Park your vehicle(s) in your driveway (without blocking the sidewalk) so that it will not be towed if street work is scheduled and you are on vacation.
If you do not have a yard waste bin, please refrain from placing yard waste material directly on your street the week that it is scheduled for sealing.
If you plan to order a large dumpster during the dates that your street will be worked on, please make arrangements to place the bin on your property and not on the street.
Try to remove any weeds at the gutter line that may interfere with the sealing process.
Do not store any items (basketball hoops, construction supplies, etc.) on the street.
