Constantine denies permit application for water line relocation

Constantine Village Council members have voted a second time against signing an application for a permit from Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy to relocate water lines under the U.S. 131 Business Route bridge.

The relocation is the first step for a proposed Michigan Department of Transportation rehabilitation of the bridge.

Council members had voted against signing the application at a previous council meeting. Trustees mentioned concerns with semi-trucks in the left-turning lane and room for golf carts on the bridge.

Village president Gary Mathers said the council needs more time to study MDOT blueprints for the project.
