lakeashtontalk@yahoo.com
Core Samples are being completed on 72 selected sites in the Lake Ashton Community.
The process began on Monday AM and should be completed within 3 days.

These samples when completed will determine the structural soundness of the roads.

A typical Section of the construction of the road is:

1/12 inch of Asphalt , over 6 inches of Limerick Base ( LSB 100 ) over 8 inches of Stabilized Sub grade. ( FBV 60 ) A total road section is 15 1/2 inches in depth.

The samples of EACH boring/core samples are sent to a testing lab that will determine the soundness of the construction of the roads.

When the results are final...The CDD board of Supervisors will share the findings with the residents of Lake Ashton.

I have been on site during most of the core taking process. I found the firm to be very professional.

Respectfully

John L Chickness Sr CDD seat #4 Board of Supervisors , Lake Ashton 1 .
