Important Stuff
-CONSTRUCTION NOTICE-
The Town of Empire and its contractor, Bear Excavating, will be replacing the water main on several streets around town. This will include East and West Mountain Ave, North and South Main, S. Ball, N. Cowles, N. Dailey, N. Guanella, W. Pioneer, and W. Hanchett. As construction activities on each road are complete, the contractor will resurface the disturbed area with road base. North and South Main will be resurfaced with asphalt for the entire road width from Sunny Ave to the bridge. Construction is anticipated to begin on West Mountain on July 15, 2024, and continue into early November.
The streets will be open during construction, however access to properties may be limited, and delays should be expected. Once construction begins on a street, all parking will be prohibited on that street.
All roadways will be open to local residents; however, excavation may limit access to driveways within the active construction area. Prior to construction, residents will be notified when the area in front of their house will be affected so that vehicles can be moved and not blocked in by construction.
Excavations will be filled in and the streets passable at the end of each day.
All residences will be notified prior to any planned water service shutdowns with water being restored as soon as possible. Water service shutdowns are not expected to be longer than six hours.
If you have questions and need to talk to a Town of Empire representative, please reach out to Jeannette Piel at 303-569-2978. For water-related emergencies please call Bear Excavating at 303-990-4106. For all other emergencies please call the police department at 303-569-2281.
Thank you,
Town of Empire and Bear Excavating
