Mrs. Mills reminded everyone about the Memorial Day Ceremony at Whitehaven Cemetery on Sunday, May 27d`. Mr. Marrie will be speaking. Mr. Marquardt stated, I have received some comments from residents at Aintree North relative to the planned asphalt resurfacing of the streets. Their argument is that the concrete roadways are what was paid for by the residents in their property valuations when they bought the lots. The Village took on the responsibility of replacing or maintaining the same level of quality in the streets. I think we should be aware that that argument is out there. We have done this in other areas. There are people concerned about that. They feel that the Village is not living up to their commitment to maintain the roadway in the same level of quality that was originally put in. Going along with that, I would say that where we did that resurfacing on Hickory Hill some years ago, it appears to me that it probably could use as little rejuvenation. We might want to be looking at where we do this on the cycle time as far as rejuvenation. I know it's a less expensive project than replacing concrete but we do need to take a look at it and make sure that it's kept up to a high standard of quality. Mr. Metzung replied, in that regard to the Hickory Hill and getting these projects more timely. We would hope that we could start turning those around continuously every 10 years. As far as applying a rejuvenator, we do do that. We did do that just a few years ago on Hickory Hill to help maintain the surface. The hope is that we can get these roads in such a manner that we are looking at 10-12 years where we are recycling through a11 these. Once you get through some of the more major projects, the cost will come down some, not a lot, but it will come down some. Council President Buckholtz asked, didn't we buy equipment for that to be able to do that ourselves?
