Hofgaard Park closes for construction starting Tuesday
WAIMEA – Hofgaard Park in Waimea will be closed beginning Tuesday to allow the
County of Kaua‘i Housing Agency to start construction on access improvements aligned with the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Work is scheduled from Tuesday, June 27 through Wednesday, Aug. 30 from 6 a.m. to
2:30 p.m., excluding weekends and county holidays. As a safety precaution, the public is
advised to avoid the area during all hours until construction has been completed.
During construction, contractors will excavate the site, remove trees and curbed areas,
add new curbs, ramps and ADA walkways, and install new ADA picnic tables and benches.
The $255,139 project is funded by a Federal Community Development Block Grant and
administered through the County of Kaua‘i Housing Agency. The West Kaua‘i Business and
Professional Association was awarded the contract, and has subcontracted Tomco Corp. to
complete the construction work. Bow Construction Management Services Inc. has been
subcontracted to direct the project management.
For more information, the public may call Alex Pascual, Project Manager at 246-8880.
