Notice to Residents: IMPORTANT CONSTRUCTION NOTICE ⚠️

The New Sanitary Trunk Main project continues to progress as planned. On Wednesday, May 27, crews will be completing an important connection between the new sanitary trunk main and the existing sanitary trunkline at the intersection of Walnut Street and Stanley Street.

🕔 Construction work will begin at 5:00 a.m. and is expected to be completed by approximately 10:00 a.m.

Residents in the area should expect noise from construction equipment, including a vacuum truck, during this time. This work must be completed during a period of lower sanitary flow to allow the connection to be completed safely and efficiently.

💧 No interruption to water or sanitary services is anticipated. However, residents are asked to reduce or avoid water usage where possible between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., including:
• Taps
• Showers
• Toilets
• Laundry and dishwasher use

Reducing usage during this period will assist the contractor in completing the work as efficiently as possible.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during this important infrastructure project.
