Monticello Live

The City is utilizing the Arkansas Department of Corrections labor squads to scrape back the grass that’s grown over the edge of some of our city streets and sidewalks.

This is being done to make things not only look better but to prepare for new striping on some of our streets that really need it.

According to Monticello Mayor Jason Akers, City Street crews are removing decades old rotted drainage pipes in McCloy Park. (more…)

There is a main water line outage on HWY 425 South.

The line is on Borchardt Street.

Monticello Laundry, located behind EZ Mart, will not have any water until the main line is repaired.

The City of Monticello recently completed another much needed infrastructure project near Bowser Road.
The project replaced the Bowser Sewer lift station, which by all available information was nearly 50 years old. The old lift station was unable to accommodate the amount of sewage modern Monticello produces and often contributed to infrastructure related problems for residents in the area. (more…)

While drilling crews were working on S. Hyatt St., a shovel hit a summit gas line, causing the leak, which intern brought repair crews to the area, shutting down S. Hyatt St., between Shelton and Jackson.

Please avoid the area if at all possible.

The Finance meeting will be January 23rd at 5:30pm and Council meeting will be January 29th at 6pm.

Water outage: HWY 425 North, affecting the areas north of Barkada Road.

Updated estimate say it can continue until 2 PM.
