The Paseo Real Median Rejuvenation Projects reached a major milestone in the past week. Project 1–removing the palms–has been completed. And Project 4–which removes the existing lighting and electrical–has been started.
Now that the above ground surface is clear, Project 2–to be performed by CCGC–will clear the turf to a level of 2″ below the curb. Our contractor will then ground the palm stumps down to a low level. The existing electrical runs too shallow for current city code, so we will dig a deeper trench for the new electrical and irrigation. Once the new infrastructure is in, we will begin the remainder of the projects–planting, lights, rock material and boulders, with our landscape architect providing periodic supervision to ensure everything looks great.
