Construction Update - 9/30/24

Last week, the contractor installed sections of the site's underdrain system and completed demolition, storm sewer work, and grading at the south end of the site. This week, they will begin working on the landscape planters. Weather permitting, they will also place an aggregate base course to prepare for the first of many concrete sidewalk pours.

On Monday (9/30), the contractor will saw the existing concrete adjacent to the construction fencing near Big Grove's dining area. This operation will be noisy and dusty, but the work is expected to take less than an hour.

From Tuesday (10/1) to Thursday (10/3), one lane of Neil Street, between Hill Street and Main Street, will be closed as the contractor works on the curb and sidewalk ramp near the south end of the site.

Illinois American Water (ILAW) will soon begin the water main replacement. Any service interruptions will be scheduled and coordinated with individual property owners by ILAW or their contractor. For specific questions about the water main work or service interruptions, please contact ILAW Project Manager Eric LaReau at Eric.LaReau@amwater.com.
