Jerry Parche, the architect work-
ing with the road contractors, said
the project had been weather-
delayed, but was still within its 120-
day contract for the initial paving and
utilities work. He said the contrac-
tors want to coordinate the final pav-
ing of Parkway Boulevard with
another project, the .paving of the
east side of Denton Tap Road.
Board President Judi Baggett told
Parche she was concerned that if the
contractors were not ready to pave
the end of Denton Tap Road where
Parkway Boulevard is in mid-
August, the road wmild not be ready
for use in late August when school
}, begins.
Baggett asked parche to talk with
the contractors about a contingency
plan if the project is not completed in
time.
