WEATHER EVENTS CAUSE DELAY IN NORRIS STREET PROJECT
Due to the inclement weather in June and July the schedule for opening Norris Street from Wilhite Road to Mollie Circle has been delayed. The roadway was originally scheduled to open prior to the start of the school year but has now been rescheduled to open in late August pending further delays. Accommodations will be made to provide access to all Mesa Elementary parking lots as well as pedestrians. All vehicular traffic will need to enter the school from Norris Street via Wilhite Road. The normal parent drop off patterns will remain in effect.
Should you have any questions regarding the construction please contact City Engineer, Justin Howalt at 769-2376.
