Commemorative Brick Fundraiser
The
Estates West Neighborhood Association has undertaken an initiative to
revitalize the "Arapaho Strip" which is the 1,250-foot right-of-way
on the north side of Arapaho Road, west of Spring Creek, and east of La
Avenida. It not only provides an attractive green buffer between Arapaho Road
and our Estates West neighborhood, but also serves as an important sound and
safety barrier. As part of an agreement with the City of Dallas, the
association assumed responsibility for the planting, maintenance, and irrigation
of the landscaping along the right-of-way in 2000. More than 22 years later,
several of the shrubs are dead or dying, the irrigation system needs to be
repaired and upgraded, and the landscaping around the Estates West entrance
signs needs to be replaced and updated.
Funding
for the project will be the sole responsibility of Estates West homeowners and
the association. The scope of work will include pruning the shrubs along the
right-of-way and replacing those that are dying or dead with new plants
appropriate for our North Texas climate. This initiative will also include new
xeriscape landscaping and other enhancements around the entrance signs into the
Estates West neighborhood.
The sale of commemorative bricks will be a key fundraising method
utilized by the association to fund this project. These bricks will be
installed around the entrance sign at Spring Creek and Arapaho Road.
Contributions in support of this initiative and our community would be greatly
appreciated.
