Roadwork to Commence on Bagnell Dam Strip: Road improvements on the Bagnell Dam Strip should begin on Monday, October 7th, weather permitting. The work, being performed by Capital Paving, will mill the existing road surface and overlay new asphalt from the city limit line near Bagnell Dam to the intersection with School Road, where paving ended earlier this year. This project will resurface and repaint driving lanes, the turn lane, and all city-controlled parking spaces in the area. As the project commences and continues, we will provide ongoing updates. It is anticipated that this project will have minimal traffic impact, but may temporarily limit parking availability on the Strip.

Expansion of sanitary sewer on North Shore nears

The North Shore in Lake Ozark continues to be the focus of infrastructure progress.

The city is close to bidding the extension of sanitary sewer on Lighthouse Road between Mockingbird Road and Eagle Crest. Providing sewer to 14 homes will complete expanding sewer service to the area. There are a handful of easements yet to be obtained. After that, a final design will be completed, and the project will be bid. Construction should begin next spring.

The board of aldermen has been approving easements from property owners so the gravity sewer can run along the backs of their properties near their property lines. Included in the project is the installation of one duplex grinder pump station and 10 manholes. 

As part of the agreement, the contractor – at no cost to the homeowner — will locate existing septic tanks, pump them out and then fill them after connections are made from the new sewer line to the residence. The contractor will also make the connection to the homes free of charge. In addition, the city will waive the connection fee. This is in exchange for the homeowners granting the easements to the city.

So, ultimately, there will be little cost to the property owners.

Once the connections are completed and everything is operative, residents will be billed monthly for their new service as part of their water and trash bills. A family of four could expect their water, sewer and trash bill to be about $80.

The Lighthouse sewer expansion plan is part of a three- to five- year plan to complete water and sewer expansion in the unserved areas of The North Shore
