Townline Road utilities work set for 2026; construction targeted for summer 2027
Summary
Councilors heard a Townline Road update: utilities will be moved in 2026, trees removed in winter, and construction is planned for summer 2027; delays risk forfeiting state funding. Council also discussed pothole repairs and curb repainting for spring maintenance.
Council members discussed spring road maintenance and the multi-year Townline Road project. Steve Trobec reported that utility relocation will occur this year, trees slated for removal next winter, and road construction targeted for summer 2027. He warned the county could lose state funding if the schedule slips.
Locally, councilors fielded reports on potholes and fading curb paint; Mayor Marvin and Roads & Bridges staff inspect minor potholes and use SEH for more complicated repairs. Ken Lahr and crew are also scheduled to repaint curbs near stop signs and hydrants as needed.
Why it matters: the Townline Road project is a multi-year investment affecting local travel and may depend on county and state funding timelines. Routine spring maintenance addresses safety and visibility through pothole fixes and curb repainting.
Next steps: staff will monitor pavement edges and potholes, coordinate with SEH on larger repairs, and track the Townline Road schedule to preserve available funding.
