(KNZA)--Work on Hiawatha's sales tax streets project has resumed.
Contractor AHRS Construction, of Bern, began construction work Monday morning in the 700 block of Utah Street between 7th and 8th Streets.
If you need to access the Brown County Sheriff's Office, Sheriff John Merchant said you can park in the southwest corner of the courthouse parking or enter their rear parking lot on 8th Street.
Once the block is complete, AHRS will progress north on 8th Street from Utah to Delaware Street. They will then complete 12th Street from Oregon to Miami.
In a letter to residents and business owners, AHRS said its anticipated to take around 2 1/2 weeks per block, with an additional 7-10 days of cure time after the street has been poured.
City Administrator Mike Nichols said " the end if in sight." He said the plan is for the project to be complete by mid-July.
