Why is this project being done?

The current residences on Park View Place are served by non-conforming connections to the public water and sanitary systems, which do not meet current regulatory requirements. To address this, public water and sanitary sewer mains need to be installed so every residence can have a separate service lead to both mains.

Work to be done

The ultimate goal of the project is to install a public water main and sanitary sewer main to serve each residence with their own leads from the main to the house. The new mains will be maintained and owned by the City of Ann Arbor.

The route where the utilities will be installed is not yet known.

The first step of design is for the City to conduct a topographic survey of the area and gather information about the current system.

Costs and funding source

Water main work will be paid for by the Water Supply System Fund.

Sanitary main work will be paid for by the Sewage Disposal Fund.

• We will stay in direct contact with the residents and businesses of Park View Place during the design and construction process.
• There is little to no impact currently. You will see surveyors out collecting topographic data of the area in late May.
• Construction is scheduled in 2027.

On May 14, 2025: Project staff held an informational meeting at Lurie Terrace with residents and property owners.

May 23, 2025 Update

Hello Park View Residents,

Topographic surveying will start next week, after the holiday. They will start with Chapin and then move to Park View Place, so they will not need access to/measurements of the basements of 2-6 Park View Place for a few weeks. Another update with more specific dates will be sent when we know them.

If you have a specific date or time you are available to assist the surveyors with the measurements they need, either by providing the measurements or giving the surveyors access to the basement, let me know and we will do our best to accommodate.

Thank You,

Tracy Anderson P.E.
