The Flat Rock City Council on Monday approved a staff request to spend up to $250,000 on road repairs and related work so crews can move quickly while contractors are available. DPW staff said the money is budgeted and that action would allow work on Evergreen and an area near the ice rink to proceed.
DPW also reported ongoing lead-and-copper water testing and said Hawthorne Ridge work is complete but that parts of three courts remain on next year's agenda after bond funds were spent. DPW noted an equipment issue, saying a grader had lost a transmission with an estimated replacement cost of about $50,000. "I'm requesting to spend up to $250,000 on roads," the DPW representative said during the meeting. The council moved, supported and approved the request by voice vote.
