This Week in History

August 2, 1938

America was introduced to the first nylon-bristle toothbrush to replace the previous model made from hog bristles. This is the first commercial use of the revolutionary petroleum product - nylon, which is a silky synthetic polymer (a plastic). Women's stockings will soon follow.

Construction Continues

The Village's 2012 road construction project is well underway, with a total of 12 streets being reconstructed this year. The first step of pulverizing the 12 roads has been completed ahead of schedule.

 
Paving of the roads is the second step and will begin with the Apple Orchards subdivision, and follow the same route as pulverizing - expected to begin early next week. The estimated amount of time between pulverization beginning and paving is approximately one week. Once both layers of asphalt have set, the final process of shouldering can begin.

 

Check out the construction schedule or the complete list of roads that are under construction for more information regarding the project. Please note that access to each home will be available throughout this entire process.

 

Please continue to follow our websitefor further construction updates and our Pinterest Pagefor Construction Pictures.
