DPW contractor – Rumina Construction LLC – has finished constructing the reinforced concrete perimeter wall. This project also includes a monument sign with stone façade columns and bronze lettering, new pedestrian and vehicular gates, and sidewalk construction.

Due to previous shipping delays affecting material delivery, the project is now scheduled for completion in May 2026.

DPW thanks the community for its continued patience and cooperation as this important project nears completion.
