Localized impacts to residents
§ Driveway access along Prescott, Potter, and Stadium will be limited during:
- Water main construction (daytime only)
- Concrete pouring and curing (approximately 3 days)
- Road construction (daytime only)
§ Encourage replacement of Orangeburg sewer leads; much less expensive for residents to do so during construction
- Please get in touch with Mike Nearing with questions
