These are the times...

The MSP realizes that with both sides of Main Street opened up and crews working at a frenzied pace right in the Village's downtown that these are the most pressing times for the residents of Main Street and the Village as a whole. In order to address these concerns please make sure to consider this:

1) Thank You!
Economy Paving and the MSP want to thank everyone in the Village for their great patience with the project. Both water main superintendent Stu Doty and sidewalk superintendent John Jenison have mentioned how the appreciate the citizenry's understanding and ability to communicate their concerns effectively and calmly.

2) Effects
Almost every home/business on Main Street will be affected by the construction at some point in the project. Some already have and some have seen plenty of crews right in front of their windows. The contractors cannot do much to mitigate the fact that they will be in front of a business/home at some point, but can do something to avoid a location at a time that is of particular importance to them. For example, some of the business owners along Main Street have requested that crews not be in front of their business when they receive deliveries or during their busiest times of day. Economy Paving is happy to accomodate these requests and has done so already. Feel free to contact the project with any information pertinent to such a request.

3) Communication
Economy Paving and all the subcontractors on the job have been instructed in both writing and orally that they must contact a property owner before doing any work that might encroach on that owner's property. There are no exceptions to this request. If you are a property owner along Main Street and feel that your property was affected by construction and were not given enough warning then please contact the MSP office immediately!
While the MSP office now has official office hours (Tuesdays and Thursday from 8am to 4pm and Fridays from 8am-12noon) the office e-mail/voicemail systems are always ready to receive messages. You can leave questions /comments with the Village clerk's office as well. The MSP Communication Pathways are always open and the volunteers/staff make it a priority to respond as promptly as possible.

Hope this information helps!
