Council approves water contract with Michigan City; Creek water project set to begin this fall
Summary
Council members approved a water contract with Michigan City and discussed a Creek water main replacement project tied to a $620,000 grant; a new pump will be installed after Labor Day and asphalt restoration could be finished by mid-November.
Council member Brian Cassidy said the council approved the water contract with Michigan City by roll call vote during the Aug. 9 meeting.
Council member Mike Mumper, reporting on the water system, said that "the new pump will be installed after Labor Day." He added that Merritt Engineering is finishing plans for a water project on Creek that is part of a $620,000 grant.
