North Judson Town Council members recently received word that their Water Project is almost done.
This project included two different portions; Division A, the installation of an off-site well to bring the Town into compliance with an Environment Management Agency requirement and Division B, the internal and external restoration of both water towers.
Since restoration work on each tank has been finished and they’re both back in use, members were able to approve a certificate of substantial completion for that portion of the water project when they met Monday night.
Additionally, CommonWealth Engineer Intern Sarah Prizio reminded the council that Division A has also reached substantial completion and informed them all that remains are a few final completion items related to site restoration.
She noted the replacement of a tree that was reportedly damaged back in June was one punch list item that still had to be addressed.
She explained, “HRP is going to cut down that existing tree, flush to the ground and replant a new one a couple of feet away. I just need the council to make one decision on the tree type. We have a tree screen which is 10-15 feet tall, a mid-size tree which is 20-30 feet tall or a 50-foot tall tree.”
Council President John Rowe stated he thought the first option was best and the other council members agreed the 10-15 foot tall tree would be the best fit for Norwayne Field. Upon installation, the tree will only be about 2-3 feet tall.
