Matt,
The brick pavers at the intersections are removed and disposed of off-site unless our streets division needs some for
repair. So far they have not asked for them. We have thought about trying to re-use them in other places but I know it
would be a time consuming project to pick them up and place them on pallets and then store them somewhere for
future use or resale. Most of them are nearing their life span and top it off they have grease and oils from the vehicles
which may or may not be an environmental concern. During the project last year we had several residents call and ask if
they could have the bricks and I directed them to the contractor because at that point they were owned by the
contractor.
Thank You, George

George,
Question from one of our Planning Commissioners.
What are we doing with the pavestone at the intersection of Belt Line/Belt Line, and what did we do with the pavestone
at Denton Tap/Sandy Lake?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi , Matt.
I've seen mixed results with the product. The owner needs to understand the irregular footing they will have with the
product.
If this is a temporary lot, I would look at pavestone that can be altered easily or picked up and moved.
FMI - what did the city do with all the pavestone picked at from the intersection rebuild?

Greg,
Good afternoon! I have a quick question for you. What is your opinion of using grass crete for a driveway and small
parking lot of 2-4 spaces in Old Town?
I have someone that is interested in leasing one of the little houses on Bethel, but they needed to construct more
parking on-site (temporary basis) before the road is reconstructed with on-street parking.
I already suggested using grass crete or turf stone, but thought I better check with someone that knows a little more
about the product before they get a design put together.
Thanks,
Matt
