City public‑works staff told the Kennedale City Council on Tuesday that multiple water, sewer and street projects are active and provided timing and next steps for each. Why it matters: these projects affect local water service reliability, road conditions and future development schedules. What happened: staff said the new ground storage tank is installed and crews are completing piping and connection work, with the city targeting bringing the tank into service in September. The most recently paved street surface course was completed and the county will finish shoulder work; New Hope Road water rehabilitation was delayed while gate valves were ordered and staff expect delivery by month‑end. Bridal Court/Hillside sanitary sewer plans required a scope change after the city identified roughly 100 feet of existing sewer line upstream in a creek that is at risk of collapse; staff said they are amending design documents and expect to advertise construction in November or December and begin construction in January–February 2026. The interceptor project from I‑20/Gilman Road toward Texas Raceway is 60% designed and staff anticipate advertising in January with construction following in February. Valley Lane stabilization remains on hold pending FEMA review of the hazard mitigation application. Questions and next steps: council asked for an update on a leaking water main project on North Road/Broadway; staff said that repair work had been completed recently and that permanent trench restoration will follow once scheduling and other utility work are complete. Ending: staff encouraged members to inspect the ground storage tank site and said they will provide updated timelines as components arrive and FEMA/other reviews conclude.
