Meeting planned to hear details on blasting

The Troy City Engineer has scheduled a neighborhood meeting to discuss "minor" blasting work that is to be done at the Stoneledge Terrace development project on the south end of Highpointe.

The meeting is scheduled for 6 to 7 p.m. next Tuesday, July 24, on the second floor of Troy City Hall at 1776 Sixth Avenue, opposite the police headquarters.

According to City Engineer Russ Reeves, "Site work has encountered bedrock, which is proposed for removal using conventional drilling and blasting methods. The drilling and blasting sub-contractor is Britton Drilling & Blasting of Queensbury, New York. Neighbors with concerns or questions are invited to attend."

Driveway maintenance time again

Have you signed up to have your driveway sealcoated? It's especially important if you haven't had it done for several years.

Sealcoating accomplishes several things:

• It protects your driveway surface from erosion caused by snow, ice and road salt.

• It helps maintain the appearance of the neighborhood, important to both pride in the Terrace and to maintaining property values.

If you're in need of the service, check the signup sheet posted on the mailbox gazebo bulletin board.
