Summary

Wadsworth staff said demolition and capping have begun at the Brickyard remediation site; trail and passive-park work is delayed until soils dry after tree removal was completed prior to April 1 to protect bat season.

Assistant Director Jon Bellack told the committee the contractor started demolition for the Brickyard remediation last week and crews are proceeding with topsoil stripping and capping where required to remediate the site.

Bellack said the passive-park trail work has been delayed by saturated soils; all tree removals to date were completed prior to April 1 to comply with Indiana bat seasonal restrictions, and the contractor is waiting for drier ground before beginning the trail work. He said weather has limited trail progress but staff are confident the schedule allows sufficient time to finish the passive-park components.
