Active Development Projects

Block 7 Property (Downtown) - "Sorel Quarter"

Centerville Elementary School Expansion

The school's expansion project is nearly complete. Staff has planned an open house during Fete des Lacs (July 14), from 5 to 7 pm.

Old Mill Estates 1st & 2nd Additions

Old Mill Estates 1st is 14 residential single family homes. Old Mill Estates 2nd is 18 residential single family homes. The developer has begun work and is looking to finalize his punch list very soon. City staff and the homeowner adjacent to the trail on Old Mill Court have been exploring an alternative to the boardwalk concept. We would be moving a retaining wall, without encroaching on the wetland. The wall can move about 4 to 5 feet, which is looking like a more financially feasible option at this point and one that both the city and homeowner can be happy with.
