Summary

At its July 5, 2001 meeting, the St. James Township Board approved a change order for realignment of Frankie Lane and the Boat Company parking lot as part of the Main Street Improvement Project, after rescinding an earlier change order.

The minutes establish the township approval and project context, but not the final alignment, cost, engineering record, or completion inspection.

Open questions

  • What final route and parking configuration resulted?
  • Can the June 25 change order or project plans be located?
  • How did the work connect with the Main Street improvements?
