Residents complain of damaged streets and overnight low water pressure; mayor says utility work unrelated to Pearsall project
Summary
Residents reported streets damaged by separate water and gas company work and low overnight water pressure; Mayor Weinstock said the utility projects are unrelated to the Pearsall development and expected to finish by end of August; Deputy Mayor Brown said he would contact the water company about pressure issues.
Jonathan Frisch of 351 Atlantic Avenue told the board that streets in the village have been heavily impacted by work being done by water and gas companies.
Mayor Benjamin Weinstock told the board that the utility work is not related to the Pearsall project, said the village has sought these road improvements for years, and estimated the work would be completed by the end of August. Later in the meeting, resident Binyamin Sanders of 232 Cedarhurst Avenue reported very low water pressure at his home between 1:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.; Deputy Mayor Eric G. Brown said he would contact the water company to address Sanders’s complaint.
The transcript records these concerns and assurances but does not include further details such as which utility contractors are responsible, a project schedule beyond the Mayor’s end-of-August estimate, or a troubleshooting plan for the low-pressure complaints. Residents should contact the village or the respective utility for status updates and remediation timelines.
