UTILITY SERVICES SOLICITORS
We have recently been told that utility brokers are soliciting door-to-door in the Village of big rock. We do not have an ordinance preventing door-to-door soliciting, however, we have negotiated with electric utility suppliers to get the residence the best rate possible. We have not done anything with your natural gas suppliers. The solicitors are informing people that they are representing the village. They are not! They should in no way, shape, or form imply that the village has given them authority to do this. Be careful what you sign and make sure you read it carefully because a lot of these solicitors have term limits and expensive buyouts.
SUMMER ROADWORK PROJECTS
The village has planned two road projects for this summer. We are out for bid currently on the resurfacing of Hinckley Road down to the first bridge. We’re also resurfacing Granart Road from Camp Dean Road all the way to the curve. Camp Dean Road is a very expensive undertaking because of the amount of traffic that it receives and the very poor condition that the road is in. We are also in the early stages of planning for the reconditioning of the Hinckley Road Bridge. This is about a two-year process and we are working on grant money to help with the heavy cost burden.
HEAVY RAINS AND FLOODING
The village has been experiencing a lot of standing water and flooding problems. All of Big Rock was built many years ago before subdivisions and drainage were controlled. Because of this, many areas have significant standing water and at times a large amount of water flow through the ditches. Please do not try to divert water from your property onto your neighbors or the streets.
