Lightbridge Academy is constructing their building first with minimal <br />disturbance to the rest of the site while the Rivers Bend Regional Stormwater Improvements project is designed <br />and bid. Lightbridge Academy would then complete site improvements including impervious surface <br />improvements during construction of the Rivers Bend Regional Stormwater Management Improvements this <br />Fall. <br />Bolton & Menk also performed a wetland delineation to identify the limits of the existing wetland to avoid <br />impacts.
