The well contractor is in the process of drilling the new well. Test pumping of the new well is expected to occur in late September or early October. Staff has obtained initial well data on 12 private wells in the neighborhood, and will monitor the water levels in those wells during the test pumping of the City's new well.

30W121 Estes Street (southern Lot 2).

Scope of Work:

Mass grading, installation of water and sanitary sewer stubs, drilling new City water well, and construction of iron filtration building, and related pavement.
