The Wild Rose Village Board approved the funding for street resurfacing projects after opening bids during the July 12 meeting.
Bids were opened from three entities which submitted them for several streets in the village. After much consideration the board approved a bid from American Asphalt providing the work is done by Nov. 30, or before winter. The areas to be resurfaced are Division, High, and Front Streets, as well as Carey Avenue. The funding for these projects will be borrowed, not to exceed $175,000.
