Starting next Monday, August 26, more of the water system will be improved, with the replacement of some additional lead service lines on Washington, Lincoln, Bigley, and Pearson.
I believe the residents of the 14 affected properties have all been notified at this point.[8/19/24] Justin Towle will begin notifying the fresh set of residents tomorrow, he said this afternoon, and get waivers signed. Again, work will begin August 26, but work on your particular place may occur after that.
No water mains are involved with this part of the project, so there will be minimal street tearup. The additional work was made possible because the previous work came in under budget and we still had money left in our DWAM grant, which was strictly for lead line replacement.
President Wilkins said today, “They [Elmer’s] directional bore the lines into the houses. Yards will be minimally disturbed, unless there are special circumstances.”
If you’re wondering if your yard is a “special circumstance” and ripe for disturbance, contact Justin Towle at 231-651-9626.
