Additionally,as discussed with Mr.David Partridge of Tighe&Bond, SWS would like to make a request to
extend the project completion date to September 30, 2002. The primary reasons for this request being
that September Is more conducive to the seeding facet of the project,a borrow source that Is expected to
be better suited for the low permeability layer will be ready for transport In August and as outlined below,
a September 30 deadline will better allow for any unexpected encounters or delays.

NEIGHBORHOOD UPDATE
N . HAMPTON BOARD OF HEALTH
I @ R B CI E
1 JUL I8702
Ls
FROM: The City of Northampton's Housing Partnership and the Office of
Planning and Development.
TO: Neighbors of the City owned property at the end of Garfield Avenue
PURPOSE: To provide an update on activities related to the capping of the
landfill and development of housing on the parcel at the end of the street.
UPDATE
LANDFILL CAPPING
The contract for the work to cap the landfill was awarded and work will
commence in the next couple of weeks. There will be truck traffic in and out of
the property, bringing materials in to cover the site. The landfill area is about
one fifth of the total 5 acre site. Work will be completed in the early fall.
For more specifics on the project, you may call Peter McErlain at the Board of
Health at 587-1213.
HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
The City issued a request for proposals for development of 4 house lots, 3 of
which will include accessory apartments. The Pioneer Valley Chapter of Habitat
for Humanity has been provisionally selected to develop the homes on those
three lots. The City will sell the fourth lot for market rate development, so there
will be a mix of households with different incomes in this new section of the
street, with a total of 7-8 households.
The Planning Department and Housing Partnership are excited to embark on
another development with Habitat that will provide affordable housing to area
residents. Habitat will be responsible for securing for all applicable permits,
developing the site infrastructure and constructing three of the four buildings.
