2023 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Program

In March 2023, the Village Board awarded a contract with Smico Contracting Group for the 2023 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Program. This includes cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining, sewer replacement by excavation, and manhole rehabilitation. It is anticipated that all work will be complete prior to January 2024.

Approved work includes:

8 sanitary sewer pipe sections to be repaired by excavation.
17,500 feet of CIPP lining.
Interior coating of 115 manholes.
Repair of 10 manhole benches.

Affected residents will receive notice via door-hanger one day in advance if water use is to be restricted in order to complete this work. On-street parking restrictions may be implemented in select locations, as necessary. Notification of these restrictions will be posted on-site in advance. Due to the proximity of some trees, it may be necessary to remove select trees during this program. Residents affected by removal of parkway trees will receive a separate notification from the Village.
