Project Update: May 28, 2025

The rainfall over the past month has slowed progress on the project. We appreciate your patience.

Over the next two weeks there will be installation of watermain, stormwater infrastructure, and road base. There will be compacting of the new stormwater infrastructure, watermain, and road base.

In the area of Ash Ave. to Choice Street, you can expect heavy equipment, digging, pipe installation, and compaction. Anyone that has a driveway that is attached to Park St. may be asked to park at a different location for a day or so until the contractor’s work is past their driveway. If this is the case someone will be in touch with you prior to this happening.

Here’s what was completed in the last two weeks.

The watermain is installed to Choice Street. No one that lives between Arcadia Street and Choice Street will be connected to the new watermain until the required pressure and bacteria test results are returned.

The main stormwater infrastructure is installed to Arcadia Street. The next steps are to install the cross drains and catch basins on the north side of the street.

Sewer is installed to Arcadia Street. The sanitary sewer main has been tested, the homes from Schultz Ave to Arcadia Street can now be attached to the new sewer service.
