Deer Path flood mitigation timing
About $2.1 million for flood mitigation areas in 2027, with tentative grant support potentially offsetting much of the Deer Path construction cost.

Williams Street underground electric conversion

Burr Oak Boulevard sewer repair and lining
The $398,821 contract is over budget, but savings from other already-bid projects will cover the difference — no new money from taxpayers.
