City Construction Projects

Annual Road Resurfacing & Reconstruction 

The City systematically reviews the condition of roads and sidewalks to plan annual preventative maintenance projects. These projects consist of asphalt and concrete spot repairs, pavement grinding and replacement, and new traffic striping.

For everyone’s safety, please observe all traffic safety signs, "No Parking" or "Tow Away" signs, and detours in construction zones. The City will notify residents within the project limits at least 48 hours before construction begins.
