WORK ON WALKING TRACK

The walking track, primarily over a section which is three hundred feet long and one foot wide, has pulled away or broke off from the track leaving a gap. The thought is that the initial fill dirt was not compacted sufficiently to support the track and has allowed the track to crumble. After consulting with multiple companies, concerning possible solutions for repair, the Board decided on the following actions:

Phase 1- have the damaged portions of the track removed and then back fill the against the wall.

Phase 2- over the next several months, observe the repaired area to determine if additional settling, of the gravel, occurs or if additional damaged areas appear in the track.

Phase 3- if no additional settling occurs, pave the repaired portion. If additional settling or damaged areas appear, a decision will be made to 1) continue with added repairs or 2)relocate the three-hundred foot section a small distance away from the lake on more stable ground.
This plan is subject to change.

Update on walking track – the Lochmere Board continues to monitor the repaired portion of the track for additional settling of the rock installed. Another few months are needed to determine whether this portion of the track should be paved or relocated away from the lake on more stable ground.
