Progress Update

 

 

Hello again Everyone,

 

There has not been to much to report since my last update.  Contracts A and C, for the Treatment Plant and Elevated Storage Tank, respectively, are both now complete. 

 

The water main contracts are moving along too.  There are the few areas in the north west quadrant that the crews have yet to come back to, those being Hickory St south of 4th, Hickory St north of 6th, and Dogwood north of 6th. 

 

Starting next Monday there will be some road closures as they jack steel casing under the rail road tracks at Birch SW and also across Halleck St at 8th NE and 6th SW.  These closures will last a week or so each, detours will be posted for you to follow in the meantime. 

 

The water main has now all been installed and pressure tested in Section 10.  There will be crews still working there over the next few weeks as the finish up water service instillation and restoration work. 

 

The next sections of main to be completed are scattered around Town.  Once their casings are installed they will work on the remainder of the water main in Sections 4, 5, and 8.  Once those Sections are wrapped up they will continue into Section 3.  As usual, here is the map for your reference. 

 

The water main in the area closest to the Tower (Sections 1 and 3) has passed bacteriological testing as is sterile and ready for users to begin using water.  The next sections to be tested will be the north east portion of Town followed by the two elementary schools.  Residents who are unsure if they are included in these areas should be aware that if you have not received a letter you don't have to worry about anything just yet. 

As always, thank you very much for all of your understanding and patience.
