Phase 4 Planning

With the receipt of funding from UDSA/RD, planning for Phase 4 is underway.

Phase 4 will connect Millers Rest and Shady Oak subdivisions on Highway O, and subdivisions past the intersection of Magnolia and Grey Eagle Roads. Engineering and right-of-way easements will begin shortly.

Actual construction will probably begin in late summer.

New District Engineer

With the departure of our previous engineer, the Board of Trustees solicited 19 engineering firms for a new firm to proceed with the design and implementation of Phase 4. Multiple firms submitted responses and the Board in conjunction with its General Counsel, selected Jared Wheaton, Shoreline Surveying and Engineering, LLC to be the District’s engineering company. Mr. Wheaton has extensive familiarity with the District having been involved with the prior engineering company which guided Phase 3. Mr. Wheaton’s firm will also be involved with Phase 5 which will continue the portions of Phase 4 not funded in Phase 4.
