Infrastructure Project Phase 1

To help keep residents and business owners informed, the City will post weekly construction updates as they become available. These updates will include information about the current schedule, upcoming work, and other items related to the project.

Updates are expected to be provided late Tuesday afternoons. If a weekly update is not available, any new information or notes will be posted below as they are received. Construction update flyers will also be available at the Post Office. Moore Engineering will prepare the update flyers, and the City will distribute them.

Key Notes

  • The public is urged to use caution throughout this construction season and to stay clear of all construction equipment & areas being actively worked on.
  • Please use caution when driving on the roads of the project. Not all roads will be passable with all vehicles at all times. Use caution when roads are muddy due to rain. 
  • There may be times of temporary water shut downs as the contractor is working on temporary hook-ups and main installations.
  • Once the concrete is poured, it needs 7 days of cure time before any traffic is allowed on it. Please refrain from driving on any curb and gutter or driveways until after this time frame. Concrete can be walked on after 24 hours.
