The Stanley City Council held an informal meeting for Second Avenue residents and property owners at the City Hall Community room on March 4th. Buzzy Halterman, Diane Halterman, and Becca Johnson were the three property owners in attendance at the Monday evening meeting as Brian Lambert of Ayres & Associates explained the upcoming reconstruction process and answered questions for the attendees who were assured by the Council that the construction cost was covered by a CDBG grant and the residents would not be charged. “You guys aren’t paying anything,” Mayor Al Haas quickly answered the top question. Haas and Lambert described the reconstruction work for Second Avenue to include new water mains, storm sewer, new surface, curb, gutter, and sidewalks. With a project start date of mid-April, the reconstruction is projected to last forty-five days with a tentative date of completion as the first week of June. Mailboxes would be pulled out and Lambert stated that mail delivery would be the responsibility of the property owner and residents may need to get post office boxes. Henke quickly remarked that temporary mailboxes should be put at the end of the block for the residents. Garbage and recycling service will also be picked up on the end of the street and the City will inform the collection service. The conversation quickly turned to the size of the storm sewer as residents wondered if the storm sewer could be made larger and informed the Council that the street typically floods when it rains. “It will be a twenty-four-inch storm sewer from Dahl Street to mid-block,” Lambert said. “It floods that whole street,” Halterman stated as residents asked if the new replacement should be bigger, but it was decided to remain at the current size. Depending on bids and contractor scheduling, the City plans to have the storm sewers televised and cleaned in the next year or two and are also looking into getting a catch basin installed on the corner of Second Avenue and Dahl Street. Lambert went on to mention that four trees would be removed on boulevard with two being on the Johnson’s property. Johnson asked if they could keep the firewood from the oak tree and Lambert said he would discuss it with the contractor, Haas Sons, Inc., for their recommendation. Johnson asked the Council if any trees would be replaced. “Not on the boulevards,” Haas answered. “May 28th is the plan for first lift of asphalt,” Lambert stated and mentioned that during the construction, traffic on Second Avenue will be open to residents “as best can be” by the end of each day. “Will they be shutting off the water?” Johnson questioned when discussion turned to the water main. Lambert explained that it may be down for a couple hours while it is reconnected, but temporary water would be set up for houses. “They have to provide twenty-four hours’ notice,” said Lambert. As the meeting ended, Haas thanked the residents for attending and informed them that if they have any other questions to contact City Hall.
