Phase VI Update

The Phase VI sewer project funding has been obligated, however, complete award come a month or two after bid opening.   The project cannot be put out for bids at this time.  We are still working on several items currently that are recommended approved prior to bidding the project. We have been working with Rural Development on Environmental concurrence, etc.  CWSRF project manager has sent them a request on parity documentation that is required as well. 

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.  We have been told that septic tanks are deteriorating, please continue to maintain them the best you can until sewer is connected to your property.

It has been a painstaking process for all of us.  As soon as we receive approval to put the project out for bids, the website will be updated.
