On September 14, the Lexington Planning Commission approved
Kendal’s site plan for the Independent Living expansion on Sunrise Ridge.
Special thanks are in order to civil engineers Mike Rakes and Trae Livick of
Spectrum Design for their good work in responding to all the questions posed by
City planners, both before and during last night’s hearing. We are also
grateful for the work of Arne Glaeser and his staff from the City of Lexington
for their assistance.

Fire Hydrant sanding and painting
Weather permitting, the fire hydrants will be greased and oiled on Friday 8/11/17.
We also plan on sand blasting the hydrants on Monday 8/14/17. No
cars may be parked within 30 feet of the fire hydrants.
Hydrants will be painted on Tuesday 8/15/17 and cars will need to be parked
at least 50 feet from them. The sand blasting and painting will
follow this schedule, weather permitting. Painting will not be done if the wind is
blowing.

Fire Hydrant Flow Testing
Simplex will be on the Kendal at Lexington campus on
Monday morning, July 31, at 8:00 a.m. They will be “flow testing” the 13
fire hydrants around the campus. This will involve using a lot of water .
. . so you may experience some brown water in your lines. It will be a
little unpleasant, but temporary.
This is the first step of a
two-step process. After the flow for each hydrant is determined, Simplex will
come back and sandblast and paint the hydrants. They use different colors
to indicate the flow levels, so the fire department will know what they are
able to do with each hydrant.
This is unrelated to any
other work on campus and very necessary for our emergency planning.
Your understanding is
appreciated.

"Borings" to take place July 25-26-27
Beginning on Tuesday, July 25, contractors will be conducting borings to determine the rock formations, if any, in the areas to be used as rainwater retention areas for the Sunrise Ridge cottages.
This work will involve some large equipment that will be at the bottom of the Kendal property, and it is a somewhat noisy process. We anticipate that it will take approximately 2-3 days, and the work may be done between the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, or 8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
These retention areas are an important part of the project as they will prevent excess water from leaving the Kendal property during heavy rains.

Parking Lot Work Begins Today - July 10, 2017
Work on the parking area in front of the Anderson Building

a separation between drivers and workmen. Residents and visitors may

Unless otherwise assigned, staff are advised to park in the staff parking lot
in front of the Webster Entrance.
