IN THIS ISSUE: - Public ROW project update - SW Monument project update - Esplanades Rocks update - Picnic Thank-You - Contact Info Reminder - Call for Nominations / Annual Meeting Reminder Public ROW project update The public right-of-way project for this year is making progress. The City of Bellevue is working with homeowners to complete moving a rockery that was encroaching on the public space; when that work is finished, we can begin our planned improvements. Our contractor is lined up and ready to go to build a level and smooth grass pathway. We hope to work while we still have favorable weather. SW Monument project update The SW Monument capital project at the corner of NE 8th and 92nd Ave NE has not been forgotten or abandoned. The discovery of a PSE vault directly below the proposed location of the original monument sign interfered with final permitting. Revised architectural drawings are in process and the project is slated for completion in 2011. Esplanades Rocks update The oak tree has been treated for its root disease, some sod has been removed, and compost has been tilled in, all in keeping with the recommendations of the arborist. Since this is unplanned work, funding for it (approx.. $2,500) has been drawn from reserves.
