Waterville awards $1.3M infrastructure contract

5/10/2006

Waterville Village Council unanimously awarded a $1.3 million contract Monday for infrastructure work at the future Fallen Timbers Business Park.

Vernon Nagel Inc., of Napoleon, will construct a new two-lane road, Choctaw Drive, extending south from Dutch Road and build a left-turn lane on Dutch. The company also will construct water lines and storm and sanitary sewers. The work should be completed within five months.

Because Dutch is a county road, Lucas County has agreed to reimburse the village for resurfacing the section near the business park after the turn lane is built.

The business park is on about 30 acres of industrial-zoned land south of Dutch between Waterville-Monclova Road and U.S. 24. Council is considering changing the zoning to planned business park.
