City Manager Mike Herr approved emergency repairs to stormwater drainage pipes and a catch basin at the City Commission meeting Monday, June 27. They will be done by VacVision Environmental LLC and cost $71,808. A new stormwater pond will be put in off of Turkey Creek Road.
Stormwater Review
Redbud Circle and Spring Street: Pipes were leaking and creating a depression in residents’ yards.
Airport Road: A catch basin was leaking at its bottom from a crack. It created a sinkhole at the side of the basin.
Reece and Turkey Creek roads: The city is purchasing a parcel of land on the corner of Reece and Turkey Creek roads for a stormwater pond. The city-owned parcel adjacent to the Reece parcel could not be used because of environmental concerns. The city will purchase the property for $550,000 from Alliant Sydney LLC.
