After all those years of filling potholes, we need to step up and invest in a longer-term solution to some of the more chronic problem areas. The abundance of potholes has occurred over the years due to improper preparation of the road base and increased traffic\u2026. especially heavy vehicles. In a significant collaboration, the Midnight Pavers have an agreement with Tillamook Countyto make the paving of sections of roads in Neskowin so they remain without potholes much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plan involves preparing the existing road to be the \u201cbase\u201d and installing two layers of asphalt, a 1.5\u201d leveling course followed by a 2\u201d overlay = 3.5\u201d of asphalt! The opinion of the experts we consulted, this would solve 90% of the yearly pothole problem in the village and give us many years of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please Help Us Meet the Challenge<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tillamook County will provide $50,000+ in materials (800 tons of asphalt)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Midnight pavers and flaggers will contribute manpower to reduce the budget by $15,200<\/p>\n\n\n\n
