Design

The design has taken longer than planned - Design work is now expected to be done early 2024.

  • We're getting all the required easements for this project.
  • We also expanded the scope of the project to include both sides of the street. 

Goal 

Replace 150 feet of an 18-inch stormwater pipe with a new 48-inch pipe. Making this change will reduce flooding to two homes on Melbourne Road.
