Heck no, they think nothing of their impact on the environment. They  
decided to put rock in the new medians rather than Buffalo Grass in order to be 
 
"sustainable." This after bulldozing dozens of beautiful trees, many  
unnecessarily. I don't think they really understand the concept. All they know  
is 
scraping the landscape clean and then paving it. As Gallagher once said: it 
 seals in the nutrients.- Kelso

Gee...  how funny.  I actually for a moment thought they might be sending 
the  displaced deer somewhere (Deer realignment). Get ready for some deer  
collisions.  I'm sorry to be pessimistic, but have they given a thought  about 
the wildlife issue???

Please see below for an update on the Davis/Deer  Realignment Project.



The City’s contractor is approximately 90%  complete with the Davis/Deer
Lane Realignment project (CIPID 6685.027)  .  Installation of driveways,
sidewalk, and ramps have been  completed.  Remaining work includes storm
drain installation at the  east pond, final paving, striping and median work
along Brodie  Lane.



Beginning on Sunday, December 7,  *Deer Lane will be  closed* and westbound
traffic will be detoured to Alexandria Drive and then  to Coastal Drive and
Copano Drive.  This detour will allow the  contractor to complete the final
portion of paving and striping from Ovalia  Drive to Brodie Lane.  Eastbound
traffic along Davis Lane will also be  detoured to Copano Drive and then
Alexandria Drive toward Brodie  Lane.  No thru traffic will be allowed, only
the residents who live  along this section of roadway may enter.  This road
closure is  expected to reopen on Saturday, December 13.



The City’s  contractor will also open the new portion of Davis Lane on
Saturday,  December 13, and begin median work along Brodie Lane.  This
project is  expected to be complete by the end of December 2014.



Please  follow all detour signage and use caution in these  areas.
