If you walk to the south end of Herb Vik Park, you can see progress on the new wastewater treatment facility. The mild weather has allowed the contractors to keep working though most of this winter season. The best part of any project is seeing progress. Years of work go into a project before groundbreaking. Other projects have been delayed because underground work needs to be done before surface projects can be completed. When underground pipes and manhole basins get installed, soon above ground structures begin to be erected. Buildings on the site makes it real and the community sees evidence that they will soon experience the benefits from the effort put forth by the Council, staff, and engineers. This is when we can see it happen!
There is a lot of heavy equipment and truck traffic using 1st Ave. S and Summit St. Please avoid entering Herb Vik Park via Summit Street. Remember that Summit St. is a non-outlet street. Please use the Cedar St. entrance for park access.
