The alternatives analysis is underway. The project team continues to evaluate potential construction methods for the sanitary sewer system within the project area. We anticipate public meetings will be held in either late July or early August to share alternatives and gather feedback.

The first phase of field work is now complete, including the topographic survey and initial geotechnical investigations. Over the next month, the project team will be reviewing existing site conditions and evaluating potential construction methods for the new sanitary sewer. The alternatives analysis will explore both traditional open-cut construction and trenchless installation techniques for the mainline of the sanitary sewer.

Residents will have the opportunity to learn more about the project status and the alternative options being considered at an in-person open house this summer--stay tuned for more information. The public will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the alternatives as well as other questions or concerns they may have related to the project. Meeting materials will also be available for review on the project website.

Beginning the week of March 17th, topographic survey will commence in the project area. You may see representatives in your neighborhood during this time.

We want to hear from you! Don’t miss the chance to contribute your thoughts, ideas, and vision for the community. Keep an eye out for future engagement meeting dates.

Beginning this month, representatives from Bolton & Menk, Inc. and Braun Intertec will initiate field investigations of soil and survey conditions to help us plan. You may see them in your neighborhood during this time. All work should be occurring within the public right of way.
