The Sewer and Water Phase II project is finished in Area 2 in the North East part of the city. Sewer crews are continuing work in Area 3 on the west side of town through September as shown on the maps. Water crews will be focused on installing water meters around town through September. Water main work and moving services in Area 3 as shown on the map starts mid September. Surface repairs to asphalt and concrete will continue through September in Area 2 (NE part of town). Work in Area 4 in the south part of town will start in October. 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. Construction crews will be off on Labor Day, September 7th.
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 in Area 2 are expected to have final repairs in September, 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.
