Important update 5/27/17 on trail resurfacing

Stealing Dee’s post again. Between her and I we will keep you updated. It was also indicated at the Supervisor meeting that John Haven would be contacting the contractor and have him call me with how they are staging each section they are working on. I have yet to hear from either of them. Trail is open and clear. Happy Memorial Day.

Hello All! Just a recap on the latest information we have on the resurfacing project of the Butler Freeport Community Trail.. The schedule we obtained from the TWP. is not current as no work has been started. I will be contacting Rhonda at Buffalo TWP on Tuesday morning (May 30th, 2017) to see if work will be starting that day and see if the schedule has been adjusted. Until then, do not depend on the schedule posted here or on the TWP. site as it is not current.
