Water System Update

Peninsula Township has been working to obtain funding through the State of Michigan Drinking Water Revolving Fund to complete the capital improvements necessary to the Township water system. The construction project went out for bids and Elmer’s Crane and Dozer had the low bid coming in just under $1,884,000. Construction should begin around June 23, 2008 and is projected to be completed before November 15, 2008. This project will consist of approximately 9,900 lineal feet of new water main installation, a new water storage tank to be constructed just north of Mathison on Center Road near Cherrywood Commons, the relocation of an existing water booster station, and the connection of some smaller private water systems to the main lines.
