Public Works &  Holbrook Palmer Park Updates


Road Pavement Program:

The Public Works Department has completed the 2022 Spring Road Patching Project. This project included grinding and replacing approximately 35,000 square feet of asphalt to a six-inch depth to remediate local pavement failures. This work was performed in accordance with the Town's 5-Year Capital Improvement Program.

Tennis Court Improvements:

The Holbrook-Palmer Park Tennis Court Overlay Project consisted of resurfacing tennis courts 4, 5 and 6 with approximately 1-1/2 inches of asphalt as well raising the gates and installing new nets and benches. This work has been completed. 

The Town has been resurfacing each of the five (5) non-clay tennis courts on a cyclical basis approximately every 3 - 5 years. Tennis court resurfacing typically includes some crack filling and taping, followed by a new surface coating and striping.  

The City Council approved the awarding of a contract for the courts to be resurfaced with approximately 1-1/2 inches of asphalt. Cracks greater than ½ inch be filled and an asphalt fabric will be applied to the entirety of each court prior to the overlay.

One quick step any household resident should take on is the making of an evacuation plan. For a step by step form, visit www.getreadyatherton.org/make-a-plan.

Be sure to identify out-of-town contacts, practice climbing ladders from your fences, make a plan with your family on where your two-story ladders will be located, where the non-electric phone and radio will be stored...etc. Everyone in your household will be thankful for the extra confidence you built within your family unit.
