Eight street projects will fill Clearwater's six-year street plan. The one-year plan can be summed up in a single word: maintenance. Village engineer John Zwingman told trustees he went through the prior plan "with a fairly fine-tooth comb." "Last year's plan costs made zero sense to me and the attached maps didn't match project descriptions," he said during Monday's public hearing held at the fire hall meeting room. Projects include: • Nebraska Street, from Iowa Street to Main Street, .22 m...

"I think you run into some obligation authority on spending county funds on city roads," McDonald said. "I have mixed emotions about dealing...

Village engineer John Zwingman presented two potential layouts when the board met in regular session, Aug. 12. Drawings feature revitalization of the small baseball field and extending south. "All options include taking about 20 feet north of the property line, to give these lots more depth," Zwingman said. One piece of property...
Clearwater officials recently received a surprise they weren't expecting. Property owned by the village, from the little baseball field, south to the tree dump, is not in village limits.
