Nov 11, 2023 of Town of Clarkson Water Improvement Benefit Area #1:

The status on the Clarkson Water Improvement Benefit Area No. 1 (WIBA #1) provided to the Town of Clarkson by its engineers, MRB Group, is as follows:

The project has been submitted to all agencies for permits and approvals. Currently, we still need approval from Monroe County Water Authority as well as USDA Rural Development. We are also working to complete all the easement maps and descriptions that need to be obtained to construct the project. Based on the items left to be completed, we anticipate the project progressing as follows:

• Bidding of project start of 2024

• Construction of project beginning spring 2024

• Construction completed and cleaned up spring/summer 2025

As outlined above, this schedule hinges on obtaining the necessary easements and remaining approvals. Should those items take more time than anticipated to complete, the above schedule would be pushed back accordingly.

If you have any further questions on this project, please feel free to contact the Clarkson Town Hall at 637-1130 at any time.
