. . t. \! that it would be July 1 - approximately - that initial would begin. what does the completion date look like? do have another question. work Then I MR. LEONARD: As we envision the project at this time, we would anticipate somewhere after the first of July that con- struction would start. I don't believe it's reasonable to expect that the entire project would be built in the year 1983. It's also been our experience that even if it could be done, we probably wouldn't put the final wear course on until it had gone through one winter and put it on in 1984 anyway. Also, there will be certain tree planting, sod and this type of thing, which has to go through one growing season before it's accepted. Realistically, we're looking at a project that may start in July and may not be completed until August or September of the following year. One thing that we need to keep in mind is that the County will not allow them to take up any bituminous surfacing that they won't get a bituminous driving surface restored to by winter. It's doubtful that the contractor, then, would come in and tear the whole thing up under those obligations. What I'm trying to say is that maybe the piece from G-2 north - for instance - could be the only thing that got built in 1983. The other part might not get touched.' Or, vice-versa, maybe the south piece or some other piece would get constructed, which would not mean the entire project would get built, but some portion of it. - It's very, very difficult, until you have a contract and a contractor, to identify which piece will be torn up when. The overall project could well go a year, but not in front of anyone particular location. MR. LIPPERT: to the Council, so it. My second question may not be of interest maybe I could talk to you afterwards about MR. ANDY HOLEWA: Mr. Leonard, do you plan on putting any trees or shrubs between the pathway and the property owner's line - between 96 and Pleasant Circle? MR. LEONARD: Yes and no. We have dealt with a couple of property owners where they presently have trees and, in developing the section that they seem to favor - that is, a boulevard adjacent to the path on their side and then slope down into their yard - would require picking up or trans- planting or replacing their trees. So in that area, we have proposed to either replace trees. and/or transplant what is there. Some of those trees, when they're transplanted, will be - for all practical purposes - right on the property line, but probably not out in the public right-of-way. As we go north of Pleasant Circle, the present plan does not call for any trees to be scattered out through that wide right-of~way beyond the path. -22-
