PEARL, PLEASANT, IONIA, AND EMERSON WATERMAIN/ STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECTThe Village of Lake Odessa will be commencing a watermain/ street improvement project on Pearl, Pleasant, Ionia, and Emerson Streets on May 28, 2021. This project will consist of watermain replacement, water service line replacement, street improvements, and sidewalk replacement on each street. Final restoration is expected to take place in September.
While the initial work was slated to begin on May 24, 2021, we have been informed by the project engineers -- GEI Consultants, Inc -- that work will now begin on May 28, 2021. The contractor awarded this project is Service-Disabled Veteran General Contractors (SDVGC), of Eaton Rapids, Michigan. Representatives from SDVGC will be visiting properties in the project area on Saturday, May 22nd and Sunday, May 23nd, to outline the project and to answer questions from project-area residents. The contractor will be working from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm, Monday through Friday of each week until project completion. While these streets will be closed intermittently, residents will be able to access their driveways during this time, with only intermittent periods of closure while while watermains are being excavated and replaced. All truck traffic will be required to find alternate routes as Emerson Street will be closed to commercial semi-traffic during this project. We appreciate your cooperation during this much-needed project. This work will allow us to continue providing healthy, clean, and safe drinking water to homes and businesses and will also allow us to improve these streets and sidewalks as they have become quite deteriorated over the years. For more information, please contact the Village Manager, Patrick Reagan, at (616) 374-8698. VILLAGE ZONING ORDINANCELooking to build a new addition, new garage, or to erect a new deck or fence?
