Miles Road water‑main repair underway; longer replacement remains tied to Cleveland Water Department review

Public‑works staff updated council on July 9 about a recent water‑main break on Miles Road and progress toward both an immediate repair and a larger replacement project.

Contractors were on site and performing saw cutting and removal of pavement for the localized repair. Staff reported the crew planned to place stone and flowable fill (LSM) as needed and pour concrete on Friday; because the village isolated the break with valves at Brainerd Road and Namon Parkway, water service was restored for most customers after a few hours. Staff said it was too early to predict when the road would be fully reopened and that the larger replacement project (a full water‑main replacement for Miles Road) is at about 90% completion of design and is under review by the Cleveland Water Department. The village engineer and staff plan to review the 90% drawings and then coordinate financing and bidding, including county paving funds that could be used after the main is replaced.

Officials reminded council that the village received $250,000 in county funding for Miles Road repaving that was intended for 2026 and said the village planned to monitor coordination with Cleveland Water Department to avoid re‑paving work followed by excavation.

Provenance: The public‑works status update and discussion about the 90% design and coordination with Cleveland Water Department occur between approximately 00:26:57 and 00:29:30 of the transcript.
