Final Water Main Connection at Sunset Ridge Road Completed.

Work Completed Last Week, June 6^th to June 10^th  

·         Received required approvals to make connection to existing water main along Maple Lane at Sunset Ridge Road

·         Make connection to existing water main at Maple Lane and Sunset Ridge Road.

Work Anticipated to be completed Next week, June 13^th to June 17th

·         Roadway excavation were required

·         Widening of pavement around various corners to allow for easier turning movements.

·         Removal of existing roadway surface in preparation for new asphalt pavement

·         Paving 1^st layer of asphalt pavement.

The required approvals to make the final connection were finally received this week. The contractor began scheduling the final water main connection as soon as the approvals were received. The final water main connection was completed on Friday.

The underground utility improvements are now completed with the exception of a few minor items that need to be addressed.

Next week the contractor will begin the roadway improvement phase of the project. It is anticipated the first layer of asphalt pavement will be installed either later in the week or early the following week. Once the asphalt pavement is installed, a major project milestone will be reached. This will greatly reduce the amount of dust along the project site and provide a smooth driving surface.

During the roadway improvement phase of the project, travelling along Glen Oak Drive and Maple Lane will be increasingly more difficult due to the number of large pieces of equipment along the roadway. Please use caution or alternates routes if possible.

Thank you again for all your patience due to the extended foreseen delay waiting of approval to make the final water main connection along Sunset Ridge Road. Your patience and understanding has been greatly appreciated. The Village and contractor will do everything possible to get the project completed as quickly as possible moving forward.

AT&T to Begin Utility Line Replacement and Relocation.

Work Completed Last Week, May 2^nd to May 6^th  

·         Continued with storm sewer mainline installation

·         Continued with storm sewer service installations to individual homes

·         Grind-in-place asphalt

·         Sanitary sewer service replacements

·         Started water service replacements

Work Anticipated to be completed Next week, May 9^th to May 13^th

·         AT&T contractor on-site replacing and relocating utility lines

Water service replacements will continue, and hopefully be completed, along Maple Lane 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 1 to 2 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.

AT&T is anticipated to be on-site next week beginning utility line replacement and relocation. It is anticipated this work will take approximately 2 weeks to complete. During this time, the contractor hired by the Village to construct the public improvements will not be on-site performing work. With the narrow roadways and limited space to work, it would not be advantageous to have both contractors working at the same time.  The Village will monitor the schedule and progress of the AT&T contractor. As soon as they are completed with their improvements, the Village improvements will begin again.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this transition between the AT&T work being completed and the Village project being placed on hold for the time being.
