Main Street Work Set Resume This Weekend

With close to two and a half inches of rain in the past three days, the time line to complete repairs to Main Street North have been delayed.

The City now estimates the repairs and re-opening of the street to traffic in the work area will be September 25th weather permitting. Work is slated to resume this weekend.
