Compliance & code considerations

• ADA Title III parking ratios
• NY State accessibility code
• Local site-plan and DOT permits
• ADA-compliant stall count, access aisles, running slope, and cross slope verified against the finished grade — not just repainted where the old lines were
• Fire-lane markings, hydrant clearance, and emergency-vehicle turning access maintained during every phase of the work
• Stormwater and erosion controls in place where the scope disturbs soil or alters how the site drains

Sample scope

A representative Police Stations scope from Avello: full-depth saw-cut repair of failed areas and trench edges, milling of distorted or rutted zones, correction of low spots that hold water, adjustment of structures to finished grade, tack coat, a hot-mix binder and top course sized to the actual traffic on site, and final layout with durable striping, ADA stalls, access aisles, directional arrows, fire-lane markings, and any wheel stops or bollards the site needs. Public projects add spec-referenced material submittals, compaction and density documentation, and as-built quantities for the record.

Phasing strategy

Public facilities get phased around the calendar that actually governs them: school breaks, court and meeting schedules, election days, and emergency-response access. Avello typically splits a Police Stations site into halves or quadrants, keeps at least one entrance and a compliant accessible route open at all times, and holds a written contingency for apparatus or emergency vehicle access. Paving is scheduled when hot-mix plants are producing reliably, and striping follows only after the mat has cured enough to hold paint.

Common objections (and how Avello handles them)

• Cannot close patrol bays
• Prevailing wage
• Sensitive security access
• Capital bond timing
