Village of Waterford adopts CSM for Waterford Union High School; Center Street vacation introduced for June hearing

The Village of Waterford Village Board unanimously adopted Resolution 1042-041326 at its April 13 meeting to approve and adopt a certified survey map (CSM) for Waterford Union High School following a brief public hearing.

President Adam Jaskie opened the hearing and Village Engineer Brett Biewer told the board the village needs a utility easement in the area where Center Street would be vacated to serve the school’s utilities. No members of the public spoke during the hearing. Trustee Tamara Pollnow moved to close the hearing; Trustee Bob Nash seconded and the board voted all ayes to close the hearing and then to adopt the resolution.

The board also introduced Resolution 1060-060826, to vacate a portion of Center Street, but took no action on that item at the April meeting. The minutes note that Dr. Luke Francois is aware the high school surveyor must resolve the utility‑easement details so the vacation documents can be ready for the public hearing scheduled in June.

Why it matters: Adopting the CSM clears a formal planning and property‑record step for the high school project and flags a separate street‑vacation process that will require the easement language to be settled before proceeding. The village did not disclose specific construction timelines or funding details in the meeting discussion.

Next steps: The Center Street vacation item will return to the board for a public hearing in June once the surveyor and school officials finalize easement language.
