In this section of the Facilities page, we aim to keep all stakeholders informed about upcoming community meetings, construction updates, and major public events.

October 27, 2025 – Community Notice
The front parking lot & drive through circle will be closed during this work on the entry. Fencing will go up soon and we know there will be a more significant impact on our neighbors along Washington Ave. & Dutton Ave. We ask that you help us mitigate any issues by being a thoughtful neighbor. Don’t block driveways, double park or leave your car running in front of homes.
