In the morning, we're busy and are not bothered by the sound. Home Depot has tried to minimize the effect of dirt and dust on neighbors by having street sweeping and spray trucks water up and down De Anza to keep the dirt at bay. It was very nice and considerate of Home Depot to try to wipe out the dirt, Basu said. Several neighbors aren't concerned with the construction at all. I'm more concerned with the traffic that will speed down this road.
People already speed down the street.
George Beloiu, a Bollinger Road resident, believes the construction is noisy, but he fears the kind of noise the neighborhood will experience once the store is opened. Home Depot has tried to make itself accessible to address the neighbors' concerns. We want to make sure that they recognize us and that if there are any problems or issues during construction, they have a phone number and a contact to call to have their issues resolved. Two weeks ago, Home Depot representatives gave each home two gift certificates for a movie ticket, small drink and popcorn. Demolition of the old K-Mart building to clear the lot began last month.
