Harold met Robbie and Willie Davidson at the Holler (they built the subdivision roads for the Borough) and discussed getting them to put in the driveway. We agreed that our planned parking area would be a perfect spot to make the gravel pit and bury the stumps and duff. If/whenever the pit settles, we can have more fit added. Several (?) loads of fill will be needed to be brought in to build the hill grade as well. Robbie also suggested that we come off the street at an angle, rather than at a right angle. That plan would make better use of the topography, provide some more fill, and make the driveway easier to get into and out of, and better for backing a trailer down. Unfortunately, it will mean destroying a property line point, a pin that simply locates a very small turn in the east property line. Robbie suggested we call Paul Voeller at the Borough to discuss whether we can do that (Tom Gillespie said that the pin is ours to do with what we want). Robbie can have the right excavator on site sometime next week. He will rent it from Airport Machinery, and they will bring it down when they come to Hope to pick up another unit at the Porcupine Campground job.
