. . . that the streets in our neighborhood were going to be covered with a thin layer of tar tomorrow, August 6, between 7 AM and 5 PM.

It turns out that I was mistaken.

Apparently people are simply going to arrive and either stand about making disparaging remarks about our streets, or else say things like, "That'th a thtreet, and that'th a thtreet, and . . . ."

Yes, you guessed it: the temporary, no-parking signs posted around our neighborhood do not cite the reason as "street slurrying"; they do, however, mention "street slurring".

The city posted signs about construction and blocked off street parking in front my gym in Pasadena for a week. No construction, just an empty street. Finally, I collected up all the cones and signs and piled them up in the street.
