north approximately 2,500 feet. Construction started in October with utility installation
complete in 2020. this year. Road paving will be completed in 2021; however, there

for stormwater outlet at Shannon Pond. Because of th e land locked location,
establishing an outlet will be a significant undertaking. Initial study work was received
this summer. Information from this study will be used to establish future improvements
necessary to reduce the potential for structure flooding. Staff and consultant are
coordinating with additional authorities regarding some of the potential options
