Committee begins street-abandonment review, directs staff on drainage and Highway 35 utilities
Summary
The committee opened initial discussion on abandoning Truman Street and Justin Hill Street, assigned staff to meet with a homeowner about artesian-well runoff near Cat Tails, and confirmed all Highway 35 lots have water and sewer connections ahead of resurfacing.
Committee members on Oct. 28 began the preliminary process to consider abandoning Truman Street and Justin Hill Street, noting the abandonment process is lengthy and that the committee is only starting the study. Public commenters had earlier raised concerns about closing Justin Street.
The committee also discussed a drainage issue on Main Street caused by an artesian well near Cat Tails. Gill Adams will meet with the homeowner; members agreed homeowners may discharge water into the city sewage line for winter months while staff pursue a permanent solution in spring.
Staff confirmed all lots on Highway 35 have water and sewer connections prior to the planned new road surface installation. Members directed staff to continue collaborating with homeowners and contractors and to return with proposed solutions and timelines at a future meeting.
