Road & Project Construction Updates

Periodically, the Village e-mails updates regarding area road projects to individuals who have subscribed to the Village-Announce Construction & Development Updates list serve. This electronic news delivery system includes information on road and street right-of-way construction projects taking place in the community during the construction season. The listserv also includes information on potential new development within the community that will not require a public hearing based upon the proposed use and current property zoning. In an effort to keep residents well-informed, these e-mail announcements will also be posted to this web page.

If you are interested in subscribing to the list serve or the general Village Announcements list serve, visit the Village List Server page.
