(KNZA)--Hiawatha residents are being urged to pay special attention to their next water bill.
It will contain a survey to get their input on whether the downtown brick streets should be keep or not.
Residents will be asked whether they favor restoring the brick streets or replacing them entirely with concrete. The restoration option would involve taking up the bricks, laying down six inches of concrete and putting the bricks back on top. The streets in question are those surrounding the courthouse, along with 6th and 7th streets between Oregon and Delaware.
The City Commission is hoping for a good response, as the survey will help them in making a final decision.
City Administrator Mike Nichols says about 13-hundred survey’s will be mailed out with water bills to in-town residents only. He said he would like to see a 30 to 33 percent return.
