Anchors Way High Water Infrastructure (HWI) Grant Project

Anchors Way High Water Infrastructure (HWI) Grant Project

Flooding on Anchors Way has been an ongoing problem and the City has been investigating different options to resolve it in a cost effective manner.  In November 2022, the City, with the assistance of Wade Trim, applied for a High-Water Infrastructure Grant from the State of Michigan.  In July 2023, we were informed that the application was selected for funding, and a grant of $144,800 was awarded August 2023.  Since that time, the team has been in the process of analyzing the frequency of the flooding, and looking at possible alternatives and potential solutions that would reduce the impact and severity of the flooding on the users of, and property owners along Anchors Way.

A public meeting will be held on July 31, 2024 from 6 pm to 7 pm at City Hall in the City Commission Chambers to discuss the findings of the team before proceeding in to the final design process.  The draft power point presentation for the meeting is available in the link below.
