OOLITIC – The long awaited Oolitic stormwater project is set to get underway after discussion with Drew Flammion, of Commonwealth Engineers, Adam Sparks, of Mitchell & Stark Construction, and Michelle Carrico, of the Southern Indiana Economic Development Corporation.
Set to begin on June 15th with an estimated completion near October, weather permitting, the $670,908 project will be funded through the State Revolving Fund, an OCRA grant, and local matching funds.
The town council approved the pre-construction meeting and signed off on the project, hours of operation, work plans, and other details of the proposed project.
The only other action taken by the town council was the approval of the Oolitic VFW having a roadblock at Hoosier and Main for the regular poppy seed fundraiser.
A notification of the death of a family member during the meeting caused the town council to conclude the town’s business early.
