Building Phase II
Construction and Parking Update - August 2009
Our groundbreaking service was wonderful, and we're set to start construction. We'll see fences and large machines on site starting approximately Sep 15. Once work is underway, we will need to adjust our parking habits for approximately 5 to 6 weeks. During this time our General Contractor, Fransen Pittman, will be building the new parking lot where the gravel lot is now—which will necessitate reducing our current upper parking to about half of what it is now. This will be short-term pain for long-term gain. When the new parking lot is done, there will be more paved parking available than ever before!!
In the interim, we suggest folks ride the shuttle buses from the two bank lots (US Bank and 1STBank) south of the church on University. We'll be increasing the shuttle frequencies during this time frame while continuing to serve the Hyatt Classic Residences and WindCrest. Please DO NOT park in the Urgent Care or medical lots near US Bank or by Marshall’s and Staples near 1STBank.
There will be a limited amount of parking in the church lots. Watch for our friendly parking attendants who will be on hand to assist you as well as new directional signs and fences.
The ‘youth’ parking lot by the playground will be reserved for handicapped parking, visitors and people with mobility needs including older adults, pregnant women and others with special needs. However, if that lot does not fill up before each service, parking attendants have the discretion of allowing other cars to park there.
There is to be NO PARKING on White Bay Drive between University and our entrance, going either direction. This facilitates overall traffic flow by allowing two lanes of traffic and emergency vehicle traffic if needed. If you park on the streets of Tresana, please be safe, legal and a good neighbor!!!
We ask for your patience during this process. It WILL get better before you know it. And, the excitement of our expanded facility will make it all worth while.
