Garfield Street Sidewalk Project Update

To the residents, parents, and families of East Rochester:

Thank you so much for your patience with the Garfield Street sidewalk project. We know many have expressed frustration that the work was unable to be completed prior to the start of the school year.

Please know the crews are working as fast as they can. Weather related delays over the summer months as well as issues with the availability of materials has proved challenging. We want to assure you that the TAP Grant-funded project is near completion with utility hole covers and some paving left to do. This is a federally funded project over seen by the New York State Department of transportation and they controlled the timing of this project.

We are sorry for the inconvenience this has caused but we are confident that the end results will be worth it. Another project in progress in the village is the replacement of old lead water lines by the Monroe County Water Authority. This is a County-funded program to improve infrastructure and water quality for our residents. We are again requesting your patience as additional digging and delays may occur.

Thank you for your understanding and please feel free to reach out to us with any further questions or concerns.

Thankyou Kelley Swagler Village trustee
