Elmsford officials report Route 9A water-main work about halfway complete; crews responded to recent breaks and snow cleanup
Summary
Trustees discussed progress on a capital water-main replacement on Route 9A (about 50% complete), two recent water service breaks and heavy snow cleanup by highway and sanitation crews.
Trustee Jesse Coffey told the Village Board of Elmsford that the capital water-main replacement on Route 9A is about 50% complete and continuing under village oversight.
“We are overseeing the water main replacement capital project on Route 9A, which at this point is about 50% complete,” Trustee Jesse Coffey said during the meeting. Coffey’s report also noted routine coordination with the library on community programs.
Trustee Evans reported that the highway and sanitation crews focused on snow removal and cleanup after recent storms, and that heavy snow and ice caused fallen branches and some tree damage that crews have been removing. Evans said highway staff also assisted the water department after recent breaks.
The water department reported two water service breaks in recent days; one live water line was replaced and crews repaired a leaking main-line valve, according to statements made during the trustees’ reports. Trustee Lopez and others thanked crews for responding during cold conditions.
Officials also noted nontechnical community items during the meeting: banners for businesses are now displayed on Route 119 and Route 9A, and homes-for-daycare registration begins Saturday, March 1 (details and registration were called out as available on the village website). No formal vote or appropriation related to the Route 9A capital project was recorded in the excerpt.
