With the extreme weather temperatures coming this week take some precautionary steps to keep your pipes from freezing. Let the cold-water drip from the faucet served by exposed pipes. Running water through the pipe - even at a trickle - helps prevent pipes from freezing. You can find more information from the Red Cross at: https://www.redcross.org/.../winter-storm/frozen-pipes.html
Happy Thanksgiving week! Enjoy the Holidays!!

The third round of asphalt street repairs will begin to wrap up the week after Thanksgiving. While work is completed on Scott and Audubon Street, work will begin on LaRose and Austin Street after the Thanksgiving holiday. As each street is being improved, there will be some limited access; crews will work as quickly as possible to keep driveways accessible during the construction. Please be careful around the construction crews.

Street improvements continue in Pointe Basse and International subdivision in November. While rain delayed work last week, crews will continue to work in both subdivisions this week. In Pointe Basse subdivision, excavation will continue on the north lanes of Pointe Basse & Brentwood with finishing touches including sealant and seed & straw to follow. In International subdivision, excavation is to continue on Scott Street with Audubon Street excavation to follow once Scott Street is complete. Please continue to drive carefully around these ongoing improvements and construction crews.

Don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour this weekend as Daylight Saving Time ends! It’s also a great time to check and replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
