Workers with Excel 4 Construction, LLC. out of Fort Worth continued the city's planned sewer repairs along Hatch St. Weather permitting, city leaders are hopeful that the project will be concluded by next week.
The Wills Point City Council has found itself in a cycle it would be more than happy to break in the month of November, holding a second called emergency meeting in less than three weeks due to needed sewer line repairs in the eastern portion of the city.
Council members initially met in a special called session back on Nov. 3, reviewing a series projects related to the collapse of one of the city's main sewer lines that services areas “including but not limited to Highway 80 East, O’Neal Street and Hatch Street.”
The meeting, which lasted roughly 30 minutes, outlined four potential projects in the area:
-Project 1: designated as the only non-negotiable project by all in attendance, would repair 200 feet of collapsed line along Highway 80.
