ARC Lot update

Thanks to good weather and a good contractor (Tom Adair Construction) the work on the first part of the ARC parking lot repair is complete. The fence will be left up until late Friday (Oct 1) to let the concrete cure a bit more before letting traffic on it.

The weather looks good for next week so expect the second part of the work to begin and a new part of the lot to be closed. Click on the image for a larger view or visit the ARC web site for a PDF version.

ARC Parking Lot Repairs will mean lot closures

Beginning next Monday (9/27) the ARC (Activity & Recreation Center) parking lot will have some extensive repairs done. Because of the these repairs parts of the lot will be closed to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The project will last approximately three weeks with different areas being closed as needed. Please be cautious when driving or walking through the lot as equipment and closure areas move.

Restroom at Phillips Park is open

The weather and other projects have finally cooperated and allowed crews to do the final utility hook ups for the restroom at Phillips. It is a ADA flush restroom. Plans are to have it operate seasonally which means it will be closed for the winter.

Solar/Wind powered light installed at Philips Park

The Water and Light Dept has installed a parking lot light at Philips Park next to the ramp. The light uses both solar and wind to power the state of the art LED light. It was installed as a test to see how well the product works. If it is successful it may be used in areas where no electric is available.

A. Perry Philips Park (aka Philips Lake) Update

Two single table shelters are being constructed along the trail around the lake at A. Perry Philips Park. These shelters are available for donation. Please see the Donation Opportunities at Philips Park page on the Parks and Recreation web site for more information.

Also the utility hook ups for the restroom are continuing and hopefully wrapped up soon.
