I inquired to the city about all the line locating... the following is their response:
Mr. Wilcox,
Mr. Wilcox,
Thank you for visiting the City's website. I am sorry it took awhile to get back to you but I was checking around with various City departments to see if anyone was doing a project in this area. According to the line locates called in for this area AT&T will be doing service line work for a couple of lots. The contractor stated they would not have to cut in the street but would be boring underground in the frontyards of the lots. As part of line location, the utility companies have to mark so far out from the actual site.
Please contact the City Engineering Department at 349-3417 if you see any problems or concerns and we can send someone out to take a look at the situation.
Thank you.
