On Thursday, January 14, 2021 it was reported to the McBride Village office that the ground was soft along the sidewalk on 5th Ave near Beaverview. “Upon closer examination we saw there was water seeping up through the ground,” said Public Works Operations Manager John Peterson. “It did not appear to be a critical situation so we chose to wait until Saturday to do the repair to limit the disruption to the public.” A section of pipe was replaced by early afternoon Saturday./ANDREA ARNOLD
