Swimming Pool Parking Lot Repair
Monday, September 19, 2005 

We were advised this weekend that the swim club has engaged a contractor to patch the holes in their parking lot.  This is good news and is long overdue. 

Now, the bad news.  The swim club has scheduled the work for Monday, September 19, 2005, our first day of class.  We will still have access to the lot, but spaces will be severely limited.  We are told that they will patch the big hole at the entrance and seven other holes elsewhere on the lot.  Cones will be placed around the areas to be worked. 

If you don’t mind walking, parking is available on the street in the residential community across Roberts Road.  I would appreciate it if as many people as possible would choose this option so as to leave the limited swim club spaces for those who find it difficult to walk long distances.  Of course, if you do park across the street, please be careful crossing Roberts Road. 

We are sorry for this inconvenience and assure you that we asked the swim club to address the problem before the beginning of our term.  They informed us that they tried but found it difficult to find a contractor to take on this small job.  Apparently, the company doing the job has another larger contract nearby and agreed to include the parking lot in their schedule.  The pool management further told us that they plan to re-dig their pool next summer and will resurface the entire lot after that project is completed. 

Thank you for your understanding and patience.  We expect things will be back to normal by Wednesday.
