During a brief regular meeting of the Whitehall City Council Tuesday, mayor Tom Ziemer said the road construction project on the Colby Street overpass is slightly behind schedule due to unforeseen issues, but the US-31 offramp to Colby Street is still slated to be open by Thanksgiving.
The original schedule called for the entire project to be completed by Thanksgiving, but Ziemer said he'd had a discussion with Marc Frederickson of the Michigan Department of Transportation and that unforeseen issues have made the repairs more complicated than anticipated. Due to this, lane restrictions will likely remain in place into the second week of December.
The lone piece of business conducted at the meeting was the approval of a lot split involving parcels at 207 Country Club Road and an adjacent parcel on Sunset Lane. The lot split was approved unanimously after a recommendation from the planning commission to do so.
