Temporary asphalt trench paving will continue to be perform
which will provide a smoother driving surface and reduce the amount of dust.
Water service replacements will continue next week. Water
services will be replaced from the new water main to the existing valve and box
located in front of each home. During the water service replacement, water to
individual homes will be shut-off for approximately 2-3 hours while the
transition from the old service to the new service is made. The contractor will
notify each resident individually regarding the approximate time and day of the
water shut-off prior to turning off the water.
The water services will be directionally drilled under the
existing pavement. In order to for this work to be performed, the contractor
will be setting up equipment on your lawns and need to park equipment in your
driveways. In order to minimize and potential damage, the equipment will be
placed on sheets to wood. The contractor will notify you prior to any driveway
access restricts and will restore any damage to the lawns.
We understand the dust has been a major concern for the
residents living along the project site. Please be assured the Village takes
these concerns very seriously and is working with the contractor to resolve the
situation as best as possible. Temporary asphalt paving will continue to be
performed along with adding water / sweeping the road to control the dust.
Thanks again for your patience during the construction
process.
