Message From Village President Todd Weihofen
Roadway Resurfacing Project Underway
Dear Neighbors,
The Village of Lakemoor has contracted with Payne & Dolan, Inc., via the public bid process, to provide road resurfacing services for several streets in the Village listed below.
This project is being paid by Motor Fuel Tax Fund, a restricted fund which can only be used for roadway projects derived from a state tax based on the consumption of motor fuel.
Construction activities (weather conditions permitting) will take place between 7 A.M. and 7 P.M. beginning on Monday 9/10/2012 and work should be completed within 30 days. There is to be no parking at any time during the period of construction, even if there appears to be no construction taking place on your road. This will allow the engineer/inspector and the contractor to mark out future work, emergency plans, etc. Please ensure that all of the below steps have been completed before parking your vehicle in the street during the above outlined timeline.
The 2012 Village of Lakemoor Roadway Resurfacing Program consists of:
1.) Drainage and Concrete Curb Repair: prior to the actual resurfacing process, certain drainage work as well as concrete curb repair will be necessary.
2.) Roadway Milling: The existing roadway will be milled to a depth specified by the contract. This will in effect lower the road temporarily. Your driveways will be subsequently ramped to accommodate access in and out of your driveway. Access to your driveway will be granted at all times, but we ask you to please limit the number of times you access your driveway.
3.) Tack Coat Placement: A layer of tack coat will be placed immediately prior to the placement of the asphalt. This tack coat can be very difficult to remove if it happens to get splashed onto your vehicle. Avoid driving on the tack coat when at all possible.
4.) Roadway Paving: Once the tack coat has been placed, Hot-Mix Asphalt will be placed on your roadway. The final product can be adversely affected based on traffic volume on your road during placement. We ask again that you limit the amount of travel required during the placement of asphalt.
5.) Pavement Sealing: Once final wearing course has been placed, we will seal pavement joints, structures, and curbs with hot-asphalt liquid sealant. This ensures the life of the pavement at these areas. This is a fast-drying process, but does require that there are no vehicles are parked on the street during this operation.
If you have any questions or comments in regards to this notice or in regards to the paving project in general, feel free to contact us.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation during this project.
Sincerely,
Todd Weihofen

West Nile Virus
The Village continues to take steps to reduce mosquitoes especially in prolific mosquito breeding areas. The Village has provided adult mosquito control spraying.
However, the best way to help prevent West Nile disease for your family is to reduce the number of mosquitoes around your home and to take personal precautions to avoid mosquito bites.
The mosquitoes that typically carry West Nile virus, commonly called the northern house mosquito, are not as noticeable as the swarms of floodwater mosquitoes we see during rainy summers. Even if it does not look like there are a lot of mosquitoes out, house mosquitoes are stealthy biters, so makesure to use insect repellent (see REPEL recommendation below).
- REPEL - when outdoors between dusk and dawn apply insect repellent that contains DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR 3535, according to label instructions.
- REDUCE exposure - avoid being outdoors when mosquitoes are most active, especially between dusk and dawn.
- Eliminate all sources of standing water where mosquitoes can breed, including water in bird baths, ponds, flowerpots, wading pools, old tires and any other receptacles.
- Make sure doors and windows have tight-fitting screens.
- Repair or replace screens that have tears or other openings.
- Try to keep doors and windows shut, especially at night.
REPORT - Report areas of stagnant water that may produce mosquitoes (including backyard storm drains) to the Clarke Mosquito Hotline at (800) 942-2555.
