Construction Update

Sewer and water crews are wrapped up in Area 3 on the west side of town. Crews are focused on Area 4, in the south part of town, to complete work by early November. Throughout the City, surface repairs to asphalt will have a final fix mid November, and concrete repairs will continue through November prior to Thanksgiving. Water meter and select fire hydrant replacements will continue through the projects substantial completion date scheduled prior to Thanksgiving. Additional clean up and pick up items will continue through November. If you see “road work” signs posted on your street be prepared for temporary water shut offs necessary to connect to the new meter system. Thank you for your patience through this process.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Construction crews are now scheduled to work five 12 hour days, Monday through Friday at this time.

  • Street asphalt and concrete curb and sidewalk repairs come after meter or main line work and there may be delays due to scheduling. Temporary gravel and asphalt patches are will continue through October, including those on Daisy Street, and meter concrete work throughout town will be repaired as the sub contractor can be scheduled.

  • When construction is in your area please plan for changes to your garbage pickup, for restriction to street parking, and utility service disruptions. Please put your garbage out as you normally would but the night before your scheduled pickup day, and the contractors will move your garbage bins to were they can be picked up then return them to your property after garbage has been collected. Please don’t park on the street when construction is near you.

  • With the high wind speeds we have been experiencing, be aware you may experience high levels of construction dust. Work crews water the roads but there is only so much prevention that can be provided at reasonable cost.

  • Unplanned water shut offs may be necessary, so please be on alert when you see or hear construction in your area. These shut offs should only be temporary, from work hours between 7am and 3pm during the week. Water should be running over nights and through the weekends.

  • Contact City Hall with any questions, and thank you for your patience as we work through this project this year. The inconvenience is only temporary and provides for decades of utility system health.
