Information & Town News

For residents in Country Knolls, we have an update on the Forest Drive Culvert Replacement Project.  The project was managed by the Highway Department.  The culvert pipe was replaced recently, and the road remains closed.  Last week, Supervisor Barrett was contacted by nearby residents about a potential issue they identified with the results of the project.  After visiting the site, Supervisor Barrett immediately contacted the contractor and asked for the next planned steps in the restoration process.  The contractor had plans to restore the pavement so the road can be reopened.  Supervisor Barrett directed the contractor not to complete any further restoration efforts, due to the need for a full review of the project.  Supervisor Barrett and Councilman Morelli have met with residents, town staff, engineers and the contractor at the site multiple times since last week. The review process will continue this week and will be completed as soon as possible.  Further updates will be posted.  Thank you for your patience.
