City Moves Ahead With Lake Thomas Canal Pipe Project
City workers will lay two 72 inch pipes to carry overflow water from Lake Elmer Thomas to a diversion ditch toward Lake Lawtonka after grade work on S.H. 49. A catch basin will be raised two feet to admit excess water before entering the diversion. The council also approved core tests for a potential municipal lake near Elgin, with a $550 award for land access and a possible court contest by the owner. News included new street lighting installations, gate valve bids, and various city actions on permits, easements, curbing, and paving contracts.
