The process of seal coating of Montgomery's First Street from Boulevard Avenue to Oak Avenue started Tuesday morning, June 12, after heavy rains delayed the work on Monday. Pearson Brothers was hired to do the job, which includes sweeping the street, applying an oil tack material and chip rock, rolling and sweeping the rock, and applying another layer of an oil or "fog seal." Second Street from Vine to Oak, Vine from First Street to Fourth Street, and portions of Ash and Elm, and Fischer Estates will also be seal coated.
