At about 9 a.m., water will be shut off from Quail Creek north — between 6th St. and 9th St. (includes Lakeview and Pheasant Ridge addition) to repair a major water leak.
Repairs are expected to take approximately 3–5 hours. Thank you for your patience as crews work to restore service as quickly as possible.
Exciting news…roadwork has begun on 4th Street (between Ivanhoe and Kaw) and 9th Street (between South Boundary and Hwy 77). These areas are being milled first and then smoothed.
Once the smoothing process is complete, the roads will be open to traffic — and we encourage the community to drive on them, as this helps pack the surface and prepare it for asphalt.
After allowing time for proper packing, our street crew will begin laying asphalt. Both projects are expected to be completed within the next few weeks, weather and other projects permitting.
As mentioned previously, the order in which streets are improved depends on a variety of factors and is not always based solely on which streets are in the worst condition. Please know that the worst ones will be addressed as the improvement plan continues. Thank you for your patience as we work to improve our streets!
