City-wide DWSRF 24 Water Main and Road Improvement Program

The water main replacement program which was started last Fall will soon be starting again.  Currently the Contractor, Malley Construction Inc. out of Mt. Pleasant is relocating his equipment from winter storage and will be placing materials along his planned route of construction.  At this time, the contractor anticipates installing pipe along Euclid, Butternut, a portion of S. East, and E. State Street, as shown on the attached map, this spring.

The contractor, engineer and City personnel will be meeting to review the anticipated start date along with the proposed schedule.  Once the routing has been confirmed along with a schedule, the affected residents along the route will be notified.  DPW personnel will distribute “door hanger” notifications at those locations along the route prior to the commencement of the work.
