Asset Management Services and DEAPR are working collaboratively in <br /> planning and managing these projects; all are projected to be completed and operational near <br /> the end of the calendar year. <br /> 1.

South Cameron Street Sidewalk Installation <br /> Fairview Park Access and Parking Improvements. Construction on the new parking area <br /> for Fairview Park has been underway since late August. The project was ahead of schedule <br /> until the rain events during the past couple of weeks. Fortunately, all of the sedimentation and <br /> erosion control devices were in place prior to Hurricane Matthew, and performed well during <br /> the storm. To date the contractor has not encountered any rock or other major unforeseen <br /> conditions, so the project remains not only on schedule but within budget. Weather permitting, <br /> completion of the project should stay on track for late November, 2016. Progress photographs <br /> and project information can be found at https://flic.kr/s/aHskymFl bS <br /> Skills Development Center Parking Lot Improvements. This parking improvement capital <br /> project will repair the 501/503 West Franklin Street Parking Lots. This work consists of <br /> patching and overlay of an existing asphalt parking lot. Work also includes new curbs and <br /> striping of the parking spaces. The contractor should begin work in October after the full <br /> execution of the construction agreement. The project remains on schedule and within <br /> budget. Weather permitting; completion of the project is expected in mid-December, 2016. <br /> Progress photographs and project information can be found at https://flic.kr/s/aHskzhl4wD <br /> P.O.
