Clifton Village Communication April 13, 2010

815-694-2273, Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 11 a.m.

Sewer Project
The sewer project is proceeding in the north part of the Village and those residents that have not identified the location of the septic tank for their residence need to do so at the Village office at 350 E. Fourth Avenue as soon as possible.  Office hours are Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 11 a.m.  You may call the office at (815) 694-2273, or e-mail us at villageclifton@yahoo.com, if you are unable to stop by the office during normal hours.  Again, the location that is marked on the village maps will determine where the sewer line will be dropped at your property line.  The residents are responsible for running the sewer line from the property line to the desired location.  It is in your best interest to have the sewer line dropped as close to the final destination as possible.  This will cost you less in the long run.  The more pipe you have to run, the more it will cost.
A four-inch (4”) pipe with a clean out for your line is required to hook-up to the sewer system from your home.

Yard Waste Burn Site
The Yard Waste Burn Site on the north side of town is now closed due to the sewer project.  Please do not leave yard waste in the driveway.

Well #4 / Water Tower
Well #4 is now dug and is producing 500 gallons per minute.  The Village is awaiting electrical and piping contract work to be completed.  The water tower is scheduled to be cleaned and painted this spring with bids to be opened April 20th at 7:00 p.m.
