How many acres will be used for water tower construction?

While the Village is seeking 5 acres of property to site the water tower, only about 1 acre will need to be cleared to facilitate construction.  A water main and access road will need to extend between the tower location and the public street.  The footprint of a 1 MG tower is about 80’ diameter.  An area of approximately 200’ x 200’ is expected to be needed for the contractor’s work zone, including a vehicle/equipment/material staging and storage area.  Actual dimensions of the work zone area will vary based on tower location, topography, and existing site features.
