(UPDATED!) BURNING TREE SOUTH STREET REPAIR PROJECT MEETING

Do you have any idea what is going to happen on your street when the project begins? Will there be interruptions in some services, as water and sewer lines are going to be laid? How will you know when this is going to happen? How long will it take the concrete replaced at the end of your driveway to set, before you can drive a car over it? Where will you park your car? How many months will this project take and do you need to do anything?  

The street project for Burning Tree South is set to begin next week. Many of us attended the meeting last September called by the City of Tulsa concerning this project. Those attending that meeting were assured that another meeting would be held for the homeowners affected by this project BEFORE it began.

This WAS the plan until the City of Tulsa project engineer received a letter written by Burning Tree Master Association secretary Rick Lau. In that letter Rick stated the Burning Tree Master Association wanted the meeting held at their Burning Tree Master Association board of directors meeting on March 5, 2012. The only Burning Tree South residents in attendance besides the three amigos, Rick Lau, Todd Nelson and Mike Perry, were Larry Lyon and Wendy Berezowski. The majority of people affected by this project were not notified or given the information they will need to make informed decisions during the project. Were you?  Only FOUR Burning Tree South residents whose streets will be affected attended that meeting.

Repair work will be taking place on all but one street in Burning Tree South, however all 127 residents could be affected by the construction.

I received a phone call, early this morning, from Greg DeLucia with Paragon, the company doing the construction project due to serious concerns that residents were not notified. The City of Tulsa has asked Greg to set up a meeting with Burning Tree South residents since Burning Tree South residents were not advised about the meeting.  That meeting will be at the UMAC on Friday March 9, 2012 at 7:00 pm. The city realizes this is very short notice, however Paragon will begin laying water and sewer lines next Monday.

Please plan to attend this important and informative meeting with Greg DeLucia concerning the street project in Burning Tree South. Greg will gladly answer your questions. Should you need further information please call me at 918-250-4142.
