Summary
City staff approved temporary lane restrictions at Summer Street starting 08/12/2026 to repair a leaking sewer joint and the board approved five right-of-way permits, with the city requiring traffic control and flagging so roads remain open.
The Hammond City board approved a request from Hassy Construction (via Dean Button) for lane restrictions at Summer Street and State Street for approximately two days starting 08/12/2026 to repair a leaking sewer joint. A contractor representative told the board the work involves fixing a leaking joint and restoring the surface.

Engineering staff recommended approval of five right-of-way permits and emphasized that roads would remain open with flagging and that traffic control plans would be enforced. The board approved the lane restriction and the permits.
