PERRYSBURG — The 2023 resurfacing project is scheduled to begin on Monday and will focus on resurfacing and curb repairs on 17 streets.
The locations:
Village Square: Craig Drive and Village Square Drive
Hull Prairie Farms: Prairie Farms Road, Prairie Rose Drive, Golden Rod Lane, Sunflower Court, and Miamis Lane
Harbor Town: Harbor Town Boulevard and Lighthouse Way
Meadow Creek: Twinbrook Drive, Mark Lane, Streamview Drive, Running Brook Lane, Wolf Creek Court, Timbercreek Court, Foxview Court, and Marie Place
Work at each of these locations will include spot curb repairs, curb ramp replacements and resurfacing. Drive apron replacements will also be done on Marie Place.
The general sequence of construction will be:
Concrete sidewalk and curb removals
Pour concrete sidewalk and curbs
Topsoil, seed, and mulch areas disturbed by the concrete work
Mill and resurface the roads
Work will start at Harbor Town Boulevard and Lighthouse Way on or around Monday. All roads will remain open during construction, but motorists may see flaggers directing traffic. There will also temporarily be no parking on the affected streets and some sidewalks will be closed. Work is expected to be completed by the end of October.
In the areas that are topsoiled, seeded and mulched, homeowners are asked to help with maintenance.
There are several recommended steps:
Watering – Once you see grass sprouting, keep the top 1-2 inches of soil moist until the grass is 3-4 inches tall. Dried out grass seed will not germinate.
Mowing – Wait for the grass to be 3 ½-4 inches tall before the first mowing. After that, regular mowing will help promote fresh and healthy growth.
Fertilizing – The area was hydro seeded with fertilizer to help with the initial growth. If you fertilize your lawn, wait six-eight weeks before fertilizing again.
Weeding – Pull or mow weeds as needed. If your lawn has weed control applications, wait until the new grass has been cut at least four times before applying it.
