We are progressing nicely in the West alley and should have all of the storm sewer installed by the end of the week. After it is installed the alley will be cut to grade and paving will follow.
On Tuesday we did run into an issue that needs to be resolved and will require us to tear out some extremely old storm sewer on 4th street. The area in question is between the alley and the Family Day Spa, running along the West side of the street. We'll be rearing up roughly 8' of the street and installing new storm sewer along with a new storm sewer box that had a gas line running through it (picture). What we found was not adequate for numerous reasons and it just makes sense at this time to replace.
Community Center Parking Lot: We have had the fill installed in the lot and we'll be running the street sweeper over it in a few hours. At this time we've taken down all the closure signs so people can start to utilize it for daily parking. Once the lighting gets in we'll work on closing sections down as needed.
6th Street Closure on Friday: Mid morning on Friday we'll be closing 6th street just East of the alley (near Gambles). We'll be making the last of our connections to the water service that runs North and South on 6th. This will be done "live" so we are not anticipating any service outages.
