Eyota South Avenue street project gets approved

Bill Angerman of WHKS approached the Eyota City Council for approval to move forward on the South Avenue street project. The project is designed to move water from an area where it tends to stand. “Water doesn’t have directional flow in the area of fifth avenue and south avenue,” said Mayor Tyrel Clark.
The project is designed to resolve that problem by moving water to the south. The project will include curb and gutter, storm water sewer, catch basins, pipe and resurfacing of the road. The total cost of the project is $469,000. The county portion of the project will be $259,000 and the City of Eyota will pay $210,000.
The council approved the contract and the project will go out for bids on June 26 with a planned completion date of September 27. Angerman said, “the project has been needed for a while.” The time line is set to give the contractor some flexibility without drawn the project out to far according to Angerman.
Work will also be done on South Avenue from Fourth to Sixth Streets. Water doesn’t have directional flow in that area and tends to sit causing problems and in the winter freezes. The council choose to keep the current policy of allowing no transient merchants in Eyota.
The city has been experiencing some problems with door-to-door salesman. Deputy Tracey Pagel said she is in the process of investigating the incidents and will write citations to violators.
Angerman said the safe routes to school project is set to go out for bids. He expects to have plans to present at the next council meeting. Safe routes to school is a federal grant program.
Eyota will be sending out over 1,800 Health Surveys to residents in the area. The goal of the survey is to evaluate what the citizens want for health care in Eyota. “If the citizens want the service we need as much information from them as possible,” Clark said.
The information will be used to approach area health service providers about the needs for a facility in Eyota. The survey will be sent to residents of Quincy, Viola, Dover and Eyota Townships including the cities of Dover and Eyota.
