Homewood Streets Will Be Paved This Year

HOMEWOOD, IL - A handful of Homewood streets will be resurfaced this year after none were worked on in 2016.

Four roadways were selected for resurfacing after village trustees approved a $370,000 appropriation from the 2017 Motor Fuel Tax allocation, according to a Homewood-Flossmoor Chronicle report.

“Last year was the first time we did not do any street paving,” Public Works Director John Schaefer said. “But we feel more confident this year with the MFT funding available.”

Among the streets that will be resurfaced this year are portions of Lyn Court, Argyle Avenue and 191st Street. In each section, there will be pavement patching, curb repairs, drainage structure repairs and ADA-compliant sidewalks.
