After careful consideration, Consumers Energy has decided to postpone the start of this project until 2027. After additional conversations with the City, Consumers wants to avoid causing any unnecessary burden to the City or the impacted residents, particularly if they are unable to complete the work before winter hits.
The City will provide an updated notice in the new year when we have a clearer construction timeline for completion.

-Final Restoration: Permanent restoration is scheduled to take place in the spring of 2027.
-Resident Notifications: Consumers Energy has indicated that they have sent notices to impacted properties.
