Pawtuckett Neighborhood Improvement Project
Public Meeting Results
The fourth public meeting for the Pawtuckett
Neighborhood Improvement Project (NIP)
was held January 14, 2010 at Thrift United
Methodist Church on Moores Chapel Road.
The project team discussed the NIP area
and scope and presented plans with outlined
improvements to individual properties. The
majority of attendees were pleased with the
proposed improvements.
Proposed Improvements
The NIP will provide the following
improvements:
•
•
•
•
Five-foot wide sidewalk along one side of
Stonehurst Drive, David Avenue, Eagle
Peak Drive, a portion of Claremont Road
and Pawtuckett Road and short portions of
Running Deer Road and Swift Arrow Lane
Gutter along one side of Hoover Circle and
Wesbrook Drive
New storm drainage pipe installation under
Glenmoor Drive and David Avenue
Possible connection of Glenmoor Drive
to Kismet Drive (based upon approval of
adjacent property owners)
Comments
The following includes some comments raised
at the meeting. The City’s response to those
comments are below. A complete list of
comments from the public meeting can be
found on the project website.
Flooding occurs at the intersection of
Sullins Road and Pawtuckett Road near
the creek and the culvert under Stonehurst
Drive is clogged. These problems have been reported to Storm
Water Services.
Pawtuckett Road should be extended to
the shopping center.
The Charlotte Department of Transportation
(CDOT) is studying this connection and will
provide an update in the next mailer.
A large amount of storm water is flowing
along David Avenue, beginning at Little
Rock Road and passing by the Ashford
Street cul-de-sac.
The Pawtuckett Neighborhood Improvement
Project will not address this issue. Currently,
runoff from Little Rock Road drains down
David Avenue. The Little Rock Road
Realignment Project proposes to improve
the intersection of David Avenue and Little
Rock Road with new storm drainage along
with curb and gutter. These improvements
will capture runoff originating from Little
Rock Road before reaching David Avenue.
Construction is anticipated to begin in
2012.
Add stop signs, speed limit signs,
directional signals and speed humps to
Claremont Road.
Please call 311 to report traffic issues.
CDOT will then investigate the concerns.
The Charlotte Mecklenburg Utilities
(CMU) culvert near 6622 Wesbrook
Drive has not been removed.
CMU is scheduled to complete this work by
the end of February 2010.
How will construction affect access to our
properties?
The contractor will work with each affected
homeowner during construction to ensure all
access needs are met. There will be a brief
period of time when the driveway will be blocked
to construct sidewalk and repair the driveway
pavement. The contractor will make sure the
homeowner is aware of when this will take place so
arrangements can be made.
Provide an update about the proposed
Crossridge Neighborhood Park.
Crossridge Neighborhood Park is a voter approved
2008 Park Bond project. Mecklenburg County
Park and Recreation will utilize an extensive site
master planning process that involves community
meetings and design charettes to determine
park priorities and amenity needs. For more
information, please contact Park Planner Joyce
Figueroa at 704-336-5485 or
joyce.figueroa@mecklenburgcountync.gov.
Next Steps
The Design Phase will continue and full
construction plans will be drawn. This phase is
expected to be complete by September 2010.
The project team will continue to keep you
informed on the status of this project by sending a
postcard or newsletter every four months.
