The Parking Lot is Getting a Facelift!
The MFPOA Recreation Center parking lot is getting a major facelift—and the best part? It’s not time for a full tear-out and redo, which saves a ton of time, hassle, and a LOT of money. Instead, smart, targeted repairs and upgrades will be bringing our parking lot back to life just in time for Memorial Day weekend and pool opening.
Right now, the asphalt shows typical wear from years of weather: deep cracks, some wide and jagged, along with areas of alligator cracking and uneven spots that make navigating the parking lot tricky, both on bikes and on foot, and let water seep in.
The BOD had been looking at a major renovation that would’ve cost at least $150,000. Nicole, our property manager shared with the BOD that other communities she manages had been using “Mastic” patching with great results. Come to find out, so had the state of Indiana and the city is getting onboard to using this product as well. Here is a link to the product. We will be using the same company as Indiana to do our repairs.
BUT…
Not only are we getting the cracks repaired, we are getting a fresh coat of whatever makes the parking lot look like new and new stripes.

Davis Homes Update This from Davis Homes: Towards the end of the year, Davis Homes made the internal decision to scale back on its planned, and approved, scope of work for total unit count and wetland area impacts. Davis Homes then went back through the platting process to revise the scope of project from 132 to 122 total units. At this stage, they do not anticipate any further revisions to final unit counts or site plan design. From a timing perspective, Davis Homes is still working through final reviews and approvals related to engineering. Assuming things go as planned, Davis Homes hopes to start tree clearing in March. They believe this will take a full month of work. After this, they hope to start moving dirt and starting site development in April/May timeframe. Site Development will then take the remainder of 2026 with streets installed and completed lots available by end of 2026 – at the earliest. Vertical construction would then begin in 2027. |
