On Monday June 22, the pavement from our parking lot was removed and activities commenced to provide the base for a new asphalt surface.
Preparations included:
- Building a gravel base to suitable depth to allow proper drainage of underground water and support for the new surface,
- Installation of a weeping tile drain in the centre of the two roadways closest to the church,
- Removal of some defective earth in two locations to provide a solid base to support the new surface,
- Replacement of a collapsed drainage pipe running from beside the church office stairway to the street
- Replacement of broken curbs around the lot
- Replacement of the main parking lot entrance curbs
