Attention Lyon’s Gate Residents,

In conjunction with the final clean-up that the crew is performing today, April 6th,  the crew will return on Friday, April 14th for a  final time to have the raising of the utilities performed between the hours of 6:30am. to 12pm.

This phase of the work is the least impactful to our residents. Each area is expected to take approximately 30 minutes to have the work completed. Some residents may experience minimal delays while waiting for passage access during this process.

2023 Alleyway Asphalt Mill Overlay Project -UPDATE (Access Update)

Attention Lyon’s Gate Residents,

We would like to thank our membership for patience and cooperation during the first phase of our asphalt project that was just completed on February 27, 2023. As you know, we started the second phase of the project and unfortunately, encountered some unforeseeable challenges that halted the ability to have the project completed as planned.

The challenges encountered are associated with the subgrade in two (2) alleyways that will require an asphalt stabilization be performed prior to completing the repaving. The unanticipated additional step relating to the asphalt stabilization along with the current weather conditions have forced the paving of all areas to be rescheduled.
The new proposed dates will be communicated to membership as soon as the vendor has confirmed dates.

  • CURRENTLY ALL ALLEYWAYS ARE ACCESSIBLE (MAY BE DRIVEN ON/THROUGH), AND NO BARRICADES ARE BLOCKING ANY ENTRANCES OR EXITS.
  • IF YOU SEE A SMALL CONE(S) IN AN AREA YOU MAY DRIVE AROUND IT, AS THEY WERE LEFT AS MARKERS IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE ASPHALT PROJECT.

Please note that this project has not been finalized, cleaning of driveway aprons and any other areas will be addressed upon completion of the full project.

We encourage our residents to visit our Association platforms for updated project details. You may visit lyonsgate.nabrnetwork.com (for those residents that are registered for use) or https://livelyonsgate.com/.

We appreciate your patience and collaboration during this project and your understanding of any challenges experienced. If you have any questions, concerns and/or need to consult with our on-site project manager pertaining to this project, please contact your Lyon’s Gate Management Team.
